Minnesota Relief Board Speaks in
Behalf of People Made Destitute
by Late Fires.
MANY WORTHY FAMILIES.
Some Will Go on Farms, Others Will

Be Assisted.
MANY WORTHY FAMILIES.

ST. PAUL, Sept. 10.-The state reliei
board, appointed by Governor Nelson
to look after destitute people in the fire
district at Hinckley and vicinity. has
published q statement telling what ha:
been done, and what should be done in
the future for the poor people. The ad
dress says:
The work Of searching for and bury
ing the dead has now been practically
completed. The devastated district has
been thoroughly explored by trained
woodsmen and possibly all the dead
have been found and buried.
Hundreas Of People % Provide For.
Twelve hundred people from Hinck
ley, Sandstone and other parts found
refuge at Duluth, where their immedi
ate wants have been most generously
met by the citizens. About 500 peopk
have been cared for at Pine City, and Z
large number at Rush City, Mora and
Princeton.
Hundreds Of people have been left
destitute. To re-establish these people
as far as possible in their old homes
and, when not practicable. to locate
them elsewhere under such conditions
as will enable them to support them
selves, viii be the endeavor of the Min
nesota state commission.
what Is Most Needed.
The fire sufferers may be classified
as follows:
First Single men who need only an
outfit Of clothing and perhaps d little
money TO enable them 10 look for work
Second Small farmers, most OF whom
have bought 40 to 100 acres Of land on
contract, ON which they have paid i
small amount. Most of these people
want to 60 back on the land. There are
probably 100 Of these farmers.
Third Villagers of Hinckley and
Sandstone. Some Of these people want
to return at once; others may have tc
seek new homes IL the industries al
those places are not resumed.
Fourth--Widows with small children
who ought to locate in the smaller
towns of the state.
They Arc an worthy People.
The sufferers BY this fire are an
excellent class of people. Their re.
quests are moderate, but the, commits
sion finds that very large amount Of
money, building material and supplies
viii be needed. Contributions of baled
hay, oats, barley and especially winter
rye, are needed TO provide seed and
food for stock
While contributions OF material are
acceptable, the commission would re-
mind the people Of the state that money

The Old Tavern Not Bnrned.

MILLvILLE, N. j., Sep, "a. The re-
port telegraphed from Vineland to
the Philadelphia papers that the IA
nous old Doughty's Tavern, the great
resort for deer hunters in the South
Jersey woods for many years, had
been destroyed by fire is untrue. A
party of Millville hunters including
Justice Josiah Il. Murphy, drove out
there yesterday to view the ruins,
and were surprised to see the ancient
building still standing, and Its proprie-
tor, Daniel Mcclure sitting In the sun
smoking a pipe. He is so far from
civilization that he had not even
heard of the newspaper reports that
his property had been destroyed, and
said there had not been fire within
six miles of the locality.

SUSPICIOUS OF POISON.
Ihe Family of Ed, Robbins Be-
deve to Have Been.POfsOned.

The Family of Ed. Robbins Be-
Iteve to Have Been:POfsoned.
Edmund Robbins, who resides with
bis mother and sister, on the farm Of
bis father, the late Adoniram Robbins
In Dutch Neck, believes himself to be
the victim of some evil minded person
or persons.
1t will be remember ed chat the PIoN-
EER, few weeks ago, contained the re.
port of the burning of his large barn
with Its entire cantents of grain and
hay, just after Mr.. Robbins had left
the place with load Of tomatoes for
the canning factory IN the afternoon,
1t is now learned that short time
before the burning of the barn, Miss
Eleanor, Mr.. Robbins oldest sister,
who lives at home with her mother
and brother, was awakened in the
night by some one entering her room;
she raised up in bed, when the intrud.
went down stairs. Miss Robbins,
thinking 1t was probably her brother
Edmund, and that he was sick, arose
and went to his room door, just ad-
joining hers and called to him; she
asked If be had been up, and he re.
piled in the negative. She then told
him that some one was In the house,
80 she heard person go down stairs.
Search was made and 1t was found
that burglars had been In the house,
and made their exit through a window
which they left open,
The house had been ransacked: a
watch and gun was stolen, small
amount of cash and some other articles
taken. There was supposed to have
been at least two burglars In the job
for they had gone down sellar and
eaten what they wanted, the debris
showing that there was more than one
person..
Shortly after this, Mrs. Robbins,
Miss Robbins and little boy, Mrs.
Robbins grandson, were taken Violent
ly sick; a doctor was summoned and
he diagnosed the symptoms as those
OF poison, and they finally yielded to
the treatment for poison, and the peo-
pile recovered.
Next followed the barn burning. and
this is not believed to have been acci-
dental.
But who could do the dastardly
deeds cannot be imagined, and the
matter has been kept quiet under the
mistaken notion that some clue would
be thus discovered.

The West Jersey Academy opened
last Thursday with an increased atten-

This is a bright and encouraging cir

for the increasing popularity of Its
energetic and enthusiastic principal,
Prof. Phobus w. Lyon.
Mr.. Lyon is thoroughly wrapped up
In his school and is indefatigable In his
efforts to increase Its equipments and
capabilities. During the vacation he
has had the buildings and the extensive
grounds put in thorough order and
greatly beautified. He has remained
here the whole summer, taking no va
cation at all, arranging and improving
the Academy to increase Its efficiency,
and add to Its comforts.
The result Is seen in the very beauti-
full surroundings and this great school

may be more than realized.

Miss Chrissie Christensen, of this
city, will sail from New York on Oct.
18th, for India. She will enter the
missionary work In India under the
direction of the Women's Foreign
Missionary Society, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church.
Miss Christensen Is native of Den
mark, but came to this country when
quite little girl and entered the fam
lily of Stein Edwards, of this city,
where she remained until she was of
age.
For several years thereafter she took
up the trade Of dressmaker. Later
she felt called to the missionary work,
and spent four years In Mrs. Rev. VIM.
B. O,born's Missionary Training
School In New York City. She also
took medical course In the same
school. She graduated from there a
short time since, feeling specially

of the language, ETC., of Hindoostan.
While awaiting orders from the Mis-
sionary Society, she spent a few weeks
among friends in this city, and after
ward went West to bid farewell to her
relatives there. Last week she re-

Immediately following the adjourn
ment the members of the County Ex-
ecutive Committee, appointed In Con.
vention, proceeded to the Grand Jury
room for organization.
Every ward and township, with one
exception, was represented, the first
precinct of Lands.
There had been considerable inter.
est manifested In the organization.
James E. Mitchell, who for two years
has been successful as .Chairman,
was candidate for reelection. In
the morning the name of Isaiah F.
Barnes had been presented as an op-
ponent. but during the session Of the
Convention he withdrew in favor of
Freeholder William Leach, of this
city. The canvass was quite lively,
and the vote in the committee was
taken by ballot, resulting in the elec.
tion of Mr.. Mitchell, for the third time,
by a big majority. Mr.. Leach i'm.
mediately moved that the election be
made unanimous, which was done.
Elijah r. Parvin, of Deerfield town.
ship, was chosen Secretary, and JOS
eph \. Turner, of Commercial, Treas.
urer.
This was very effective organiza-
tion, and some little plans for active
campaign work were discussed.
A committee was appointed to In.
vestigate the matter of making the
nominations for the county offices and
Assembly, at one time, and having but
one primary meeting and one set of
delegates.
After some other discussion of inter-
est to the party and the campaign,
the Committee adjourned to meet
at the call of the Chair.

I fasm that characterized it In the
earlier days of the martyred Lincoln.
He then spoke of the candidates
and congratulated the convention
upon Its wisdom. His acquaintance
with William B. Trenchard began in
| the field of poIitics. He knew him as
Repu olican In whom there was no
fault.
He Was a splendid official, and a
wise counsellor. No candidate who
had been before the people In recent
years could fail to appreciate the ser.
vices OF Mr.. Trenchsrd, and now it
was their turn to reciprocete. The
best eulogy, he said, that he could
give Mr. Trencherd was that he was q
most worthy successor to himself.
He knew Candidate Halsey as az
able representative of that younger
element, which promises this year to
lead the Republican party on to
greater victory.
The Senator then turned to the
wide field of politics. He felt impelled
to be lenient with Democracy. The
people had long been taught to say
naught Ill of the dead. He did not
mean to say that Democracy had been
deserted in a body. The party has
not ceased to exist In fact and name.
but in principle and issue, ,and national
sentiment 1t was as dead as the
Pharaohs of Egypt.
Democracy did not like the Republi.
cans. That was not to be wondered
at. 1t did not like itself, and that was
to be wondered at. They were finding
fault with themselves and were heap
Ing censure upon their recognized
champions.
Democracy for three decades had
been standing by and had objected to
the parade of progress, until 1t had
massed all the dissatisfied elements, and
after time they we're confronted with
the affairs of a nation and statecraft.
He spoke of the attack by Democracy
upon the tariff and American indus
tries, and then quoted President Cleye
lands language to General Catchings,
when he said that the fight for free
trade had just begun. He spoke of
the effect of the cut in wages upon the
glassworkers of Millville, and showed
that it meant loss to the workmen
OF $50, 900 per year. He spoke of the
special tax upon sugar, which is esti-
mated to cost the consumers of this
country $56,OOO,oOO per year.
In closing be showed the brightness
of Republican times, and compared 1t
with the present Democratic blight.
Between the two the people stand,
and they must take their choice.

Tortoise Shell Jewels.

AS every improvement or innovation
usurps to a greater or lesser extent the
position of its predecessor, so tortoise
shell hair ornaments are actively rival
Ing those Of gold and silver for first
place. The reason is obvious. Tortoise
shell does not cut the hair, which metal
is likely to do, and, weight for weight,
1t exceeds the value Of silver and nearly
equals that Of gold, while It's extreme-
ly light weight, combined with It's re-
fined and elegant appearance. makes It
particularly adaptable as an ornament
OF the coiffure. The style in greatest
demand is the Spanish or high-top or
nament, both plain and carved. 1t pro-
duces an effect at once both elegant
and distingue. A novelty in this line Is
a tortoise-shell hair ornament embel-
lished with electro-deposit silver filigree
work. AS yet this style has not been
made in quantities, but the demand ID
extensive.
