The Towns Destroyed.
In addition to Hinckley several other
towns are entirely wiped out of existence,
among them, Mission Creek, Millar, Fin
layson, Rutledge, Cromwell, Sandstone.
Pokegama, Sturgeon Lake, Moose Lake
and Partridge in Minnesota, and Shell
Lake and Baronett in Wisconsin. The
aggregate population of these towns is
about 5O00 There were also disastrous
fires in many other towns.
The fire reached Baronett, Wis, Sunday
night, and in short time only piles of
embers and one dwelling marked the site
OF what had been village with 500 popu-
lation. The big lumber mill and 10, 900, 900
feet of lumber were destroyed. Several
hundred people were taken on trains from
shell City, Mimi, a village of 1000 inhabi-
tants. The fire made a clean sweep of the
west side of the town, burning 81 dwell
lngs. Bashaw, near Rice Lake Wis, and
Marengo, near Ashland, were destroyed.
Both were lumber towns. There is no
loss of life reported at these places.
AS soon as the extent of the disaster be-
came known relief committees were organ
lied in Duluth, st. Paul and Minneapolis,
and trains were run into the desolate sec
tions to carry provisions and clothing as
well as to bring out the survivors. Many
bridges are burned.
At Sandstone 400 people were saved by
rushing into the Kettle river, where they
stood with only their heads above the
water.

The Cyclone of Flame.

Survivors say there was a cyclone of
flame. 1t could be likened only to the roll
ing up of hurricane or the burst of tor
nado, the wind being fire and the smoke
death. Before the fire struck the doomed
settlements there was a mighty wind,
chmneys being blown down, barns toppled
over and haystacks levelled 1t blew at
the rate OF 60 miles an hour.
Thirty persons who spent Saturday night
in the lake near Finlayson, standing up to
their chins in water, say the flames seemed
almost alive. They would see cloud of
fire miles away and high in the sky. 1t
would sweep along, bounding to the earth
and up again, rolling on like huge bilow.
These pillows passed over them all night,
sometimes coming so close to the water
that it seemed as if they could reach up
and touch the fire. At these times they
would duck completely under the water.
Where the fire held full sway not a single
tree is standing, except as a blackened
stump.

"Castoria is the best remedy for children OF
which am acquainted. I hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurttul
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

Later Details.
The Death List Now Known TO Number
nt Least $50.

A Duluth despatch says: "The death
roll increases with the constant finding of
new victims. More than $50 persons are
now known to be lost, the greater part
women and children. The greatest per-
centage of deaths occurred among settlers,
where whole families were swept out of eX-
istence.
In a stretch of territory 26 miles long,
and from one to 10 miles wide, not single
human habitation has been left standing,
except a section house at Miller; and in
every part of the track of the flames the
bodies of men, women, children, horses and
cattle were found. The position of every
body found outside of Hinckley shows that
shelter of some kind was sought by the
agonized sufferers, and the dead are found
in holes behind overturned stumps, trees,
marshy depressions and in every water
course.

THE REMEDY FOR CRIME.

San Francisco is going about 1t in
the only right and successful way, to
prevent crime,
All the unemployed, who so de-
sire, are given a certificate emitting
them t. ten days of work in Golden
Gate PAX at one dollal per day.
Hard times and crime increase
proportionately, and are always neck
and neck.
II is the idle ard unemployed who
commit crime, who murder and rob,
not those who have something to do,
not those who are engaged in honest
pursuits to make living for them
selves and families; the pangs of
hunger and want know no con-
science. 1t is simply an exemplih-
cation of the cid proverb, ''The
devil finds work for idle hands to
do"
The remedy for it all is simply:
Employment.
Keep men at work and the cause
of crime is re.noved.
Statistics 60 to show that this is a
fact. Idleness and crime have al
ways gene together, hand in hand,
and always will.

one in every five inhabitants OF the

then there has been great influx of

More than two thousand of these
foreigners settled in the dis

most as many Londoners. The birth

seven in Russia Even if immigra-

1t has been estimated by competent
civil engineers that the Mississippi
river annually discharges 10, 800, 600, e.
900, 600 cubic feet Of water into the
Gulf of Mexico. OF this prodigious
quantity the 129O0th part is sediment.
Thus it will be seen that the Missis-
sippi annually deposits enough mud in
the gulf to cover square mile of sur
face to a depth OF 2IO feet.
