SENATOR QUAY VERY CANDID.

Washington, June Ex-senator Quay
WAS before the sugnr trust committee.
Ho said he had been dealing in stocks
n:t rc or less all his life, and for the ncst
twenty months had bought and sold
sugar storks. The day before the vote
was taken he sold all he had ut q loss,
SO that it could not be charged that it
il tlrt iced his vote. He said that he had
rot been furnished with any information
as to what the finance committee would
do with the sugar schedule, and that
formed no part Of his basis of purchase
or sale. lie saw no reason why a
United States senator should not avail
himself Of IL plain business proposition.
and he intended to transact any such
business in the future as he had in the
p: st.
Senator Ransom of North Carolina
testified that he had never speculated in
sugar, but that his son George had SO
speculatc'l, unbcknown to him at the
time, while tn. sugar schedule was under
consideration in the senate. The senator
sJid: Il have no interest whatever, and
never had stock or trade or anything else
in any way, since l have been in the
senate"
A number of other senators were ex-
amircd, but none of them gave any
testimony beyond the denial of the cute
gorical questions concerning the purchase
and ownership of sugar stocks or knowl-
edge Of any purchase by any one con-
ncctel with them either officially or do
| mestically. The correspondents, Ed
wards and Shriver, who have been in
dicted by the grand jury for refusing to
reply to questions of the committee, have
been notified to appear for arraignnent.

An exchange says that certain parties
recently illustrated how easy people
can be humbugged. They took big
sausage stuffing machine, rugged it up
on box at the southwest corner Of the
square, and inscribed on card: "Rain
machine. Rain guaranteed in five days
or money refunded" A lot of fire
crackers were fired Occasionly and a
person on top of building threw a
shower from sprayer. A large crowd
collected and farmers subscribed to
the amount of $3.50, some putting down
their names for SIS, and a few ready to
put up the cash. 1t afforded a lot of
fun and shows how easily lot of peo-
pie are gulled in dry times by rain
making humbugs. They didn't take
any money and nobody lost anything
and it may do good in showing the
people the character of rain making
humbugs.

THE FIRE FHEND.

The most fearful calamity that has
ever befallen community in this state,
is that which overlook the towns of
Hinckley, Sandstone, Shell Lake, Mis-
sion Creek, Baronnette, Miller, Crom-
we'll and Wright on Saturday last. At
that time the towns mentioned were
Literally wiped from the face of the
earth by that fell destroyer, the fire
tiend. The property loss was immense
more especially in the town Of Hinckley.
But the saddest part of the disaster
lies in the terrible loss of life some 1894
persons being known to have persisted
up to this writing. According to &C.
counts of eye witnesses, the scenes en-
acted during this fearful holocaust
must have been of the most heart
rending nature. In their mad efforts
to escape from the fearful flames, whole
families sank to the ground, overcome
by the smoke and terrible heat, or
by the exhaustion incident to over
strained nerves, and became victims to
the devouring element. The town of
Hinckley, being the largest, NATURALLY
suffered to the greatest extent there
being absolutely nothing left of more
than three hundred buildings which on
the morning of that sad day constituted
the homes and business places Of a
happy and prosperous community, but
which ere night had circled the earth
with her sable fold had become living
tomb of fire and devastation. Oh the
pity of it. Strong men trying to save
their loved ones, directing and encour
aging their flight from this awful hell
sink pOwerless to the ground, and sur
rounded by those they so fOndly cher
ished whom they were no longer able tC
succOr, gave up their lives and were
accompanied into the unknown future
by the dear wife and little ones whom
an untoWard fate had overtaken.
1t has been said that a great calamity
is sure to develop hero, and this was
no exception. While this grand ole
state has an existence, the name OF
Engineer "Jim" Root and the noble
band of trainmen, who by their un
daunted courage, and intrepid daring
were the means of rescuing and saving
from horrible fate, two hundred anC
fifty human beings, shall be remem
bered and their heroic deeds spoken oil
| with reverence and awe by generations
