by heavy southwest gale, which steadily
increased in force. The SUI was shut out
and the hor ZOn again took on the slckly
yellow coat of the fatal Saturday week
ago. There was great excitement here.
The sensation was intensified by the
breaking out of forest fires in the city
limits. Fire crept around in the under
growth at Oneata and caused some appre-
hension. Then an alarm came in from
Duluth Heights, a suburb surrounded by
timber. The Fire Department sent up a
detachment, which little later sent for an
engine. Then excitement was at fever
heat, for news had been coming OF the
side tracking Of a St. Paul and Duluth

chatting with the operator at Duluth about
the danger of the fire, suddenly broke the
conversation, saying:
