Six Towns Devastated.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept. 4.-Reports to the
Tribune from the portion of Minnesota,
Michigan and Wisconsin in which forest
fires are raging show that the loss of
property, at a low estimate, has already
reached Sl2,0OO,000 not including the
standing timber destroyed, but even
worse is the loss of life, which, it is
feared, will reach as high as a thousan d
About twenty towns have been destroyed
driving thousands of families from their
homes, The Herald's summary is as fol-
lows: Six towns wiped out and more
than 500 dead is the record mace by the
forest fires in Minnesota in the last
t%wenty-four hours. In Hinckley, Sand
stone, Pokegama and Mission Creek
there are 1855 known to be dead. In ad-
dition several hundred are missing, while
from $50 to 200 people are scattered on
the farms throughout the district burned
over. The Times estimates that at least
half a thousand persons are dead, as fol-

The Newspaper Correspondent.

The day of the newspaper correspond
ent is not over, although telegraph re-
porting has wiped out SO many of the
guild. The telegraph sends us in stereo-
typedform a general account of whatever
matters of interest occur the world over.
But in the preparation Of the huge guam
titles Of ''limsy" which must feed the
daily news mill there is no time for
close observation or even impressive
writing. There is no space for anything
beyond a skeleton of fact, which is not
always fact, and that is the worst of it.
Here is where the work Of the true
newspaper correspondent may come in.
Where any event of national interest has
happened, after the telegraph newsman
has finished his work and sent off his
dispatches the correspondent may go
over the ground carefully, observing
things the other necessarily left and
giving a graphic description of them.
In a few touches, covering perhaps not
more than a column, he may give a
better idea of q situation than three
columns of telegraph news have been
able to do. We find this of daily occur
The newspaper correspondent
should practice assiduously the art Of
writing. He should learn to use pure,
picturesque, powerful English. He has
more time TO choose his words and his
incidents than the telegraph reporter
has. Above all, he should not neglect
the slight, graphic points that tell so
much. The correspondent who trains
himself to write what people always
want to read will find there is a place
still for him.

still Raging.

CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-Reports from forest
fires received at ths Northwestern and
Wisconsin Central headquarters today
showed a fearful loss Of life and de-
struction of property. The Northwest
ern received word at 10 o'clock that a
heavily loaded freight train had been
abandoned on a burning bridge. An
official said reports indicated that unless
the fire-swept region received rain the
havoc would be worse today than yester-
day. The Wisconsin Central service
was badly demoralized. A. j. Earring,
general manager Of the Milwaukee a. st.
Paul railway, says the forest fires are
still raging between Sidnaw and On
tagnon in the northern peninsula Of
Minnesota. The wires being down north
of Iron mountain ever since Sunday
evening they are unable to get any in
formation today. Forest fires are also
raging along the line Of the Wisconsin
Valley division. At Wecotah and Rul-
dolph, about seven miles north Of Grand
Rapids, considerable damage has been
done to the cranberry marshes.

A BAL MAN ARRESTED.
City Detective Germ Made an Important
Arrest Yesterday.

City Detective Germ Made an Important
Arrest Yesterday.
City Detective Germ made an impor-
tant arrest Wednesday afternoon about
2:45 o'clock. The mans name was
Charles Haneen, charged with stealing
an overcoat from a hotel and afterward
selling it to an employe at the Park
theater. Mr.. Germ states that the pris-
oner is an all-round crook and
that he has positive evidence that he
is the party who garroted a man named
Sam Harlow Wednesday morning in
front of the Park theatre just before
daylight. The details Of this crime are
as follows: Sam Harlow is a cook in a
restaurant and was going home about A
o'clock Wednesday morning when he
was approached from behind by a man
who suddenly threw his arms about his
neck, forcing his head back till his
neck was nearly dislocated, and while
he was in this position went through his
pockets, relieving him Of a gold watch
valued at S65. Harlow reported the
facts to the police and Detective Germ
has since been working on the case.
He was convinced that the thief and the
garroter were the same person. He
captured Hanson, who also goes by the
name of Ryan, just as he was leaving the
city with his grip packed and headed
for Belt. He regards the capture as a
most important one and is entitled to
credit for his skill with which he worked
up the case.

Hinckley Wiped Out.

HINCKLEY, Sept. IA gentle rain is
falling today and q%uenching the embers
of the immense forest fires that did so
much damage in this city. The black
ened ruins of two or three buildings are
all that remains standing of the once
prosperous town of Hinckley with LOO
people and its busy, railroad and lumber
ing interests. The town is the junction
point of the st. Paul & Duluth and the
Eastern railway of Minnesota, and both
Of these roads have suffered losses that
cannot nov be estimated, while the loss
to the timber interests is something be-
You'd computation. This is today a
place of mourning and the charred and
unrecognizable bodies Of hundreds of
victims has saddened the survivors even
more than the disaster itself. The fire
was SO overwhelming in immensely that
none, in the first terror of the moment,
could realize how great was the loss.
Each was so intent on saving his own
life that little thought was given to the
disaster in general by most, although
many cases of unselfish beroism have
been reported. The bodies thus far re-
covered have baen placed in rough pine
boxes for burial, and the majority buried
without knowledge Of their identity.
The wires that we're down this side of
Pine City have been so far put in shape
that the Associated Press operator is
able to send his report as he sits on a
keg in the open air, there being no
shelter of any kind in the town. Most
of the survivors went to Pine City yes
terday for food and shelter, and the
ONE and children are still there. But
many men have returned to their ruined
homes to see if by any possibility any
thing remains.

Surrounded by Fire.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, Sept. 4.-The last
train from the north on the Omaha road
reached here at 5 o'clock Saturday after
noon and no trains have gone out since
except a wrecking train sent from Eau

be q tree left when the rain comes. One
of the Eau Claire owners OF the b ,rnol
Lumber compsny's plant says the loss
there is s25O,O00. A special from Gao

He VIII Write Good English Yet.

He VIII Write Good English Yet.
For some time newspaper editors
have been laboring with President G..
Stanley Hall of John Hopkins university
trying to teach him to write English.
He seems a we'll disposed gentleman,
with excellent ideas on child training.
But this poor man unfortunately had
no parent or guardian to make him
serve an apprenticeship OH a newspaper
when he was young; consequently he
never learned to write. He does the
best he can under such disadvantages
when he wants to put his thoughts into
English, but he fails for the reason that
he is ignorant Of it's He is ac-
quainted with Greek, Latin, French,
German and heaven knows how many
other languages, but is short on his
mother tongue. For that reason, as a
rule, his magazine contributions are not
understandable by readers of plain Eng
fish. The articles are loaded down with
quotations from foreign tongues.
But we have strong hopes of him now
since the newspapers have become in
terested in his literary attempts and
shown him his mistakes. We give him
the credit of saying that he is clever
and catches on quick. His last paper in
The Forum on ''The New Psychology
comes nearer being written in English
than anything we have seen from his
pen. 1t is true he still makes a few bad
breaks, as when he says u psyche ply
siology consists of only vague snatches
Of uranian antiphon, but we forgive
him. Keep on trying, President G.
Stanley Hall. If at first you don't SUI
