Chief Roy caught one of the lines,

severe scoring both from the police

Z With Sunday q ser vices Rev. William
Moore closed a successful pastorAte
Of four years with the Congrega-
tiunal church OF this city. These
years have marked a large growth
in the church membership and
attendance. a corresponding enlarge
meDt of the various activities
Of the church and the erection
OF the pleasant and cOmmo-
dious church building now occupied.
In announcing MIR. Moore's resigna-

ing work he has done during his

church that their pleasant relations
were to cease. The services yesterday

to live more consecra ted personal
lives and to show even greater devO-

AShLAND'S FATAL FIRE.
Three Lives Lost and $500, 900 Worth Q
Property Destroyed.

Three Lives Lost and $500, 900 Worth Of
Property Destroyed.
ASHLAND, Wis, May 11.-This city
experienced a great fire Saturday. Half
a million dollars worth of milling
property and lumber went up in flames,
and three and possibly four men lost
their lives. The fire started in w. R.
Durfee's lumber dock. The mill was
surrounded by water, with wooden
tramways leading to the shore. When
the flames burst out in great volume
and enveloped the mill and the dock, all
the men but four succeeded in reaching
the tramways.
The origin Of the fire is still mys-
terry, but it is presumed that a spark
from some employees pipe started the
lumber pile-on Durfee's dock. The dis
lance between Durfee's and the Shores
Lumber Company's docks is only fifty
feet, so the fire jumped across the short
stretch Of water in fifteen minutes after
it had started.

has forced the General Committee"
to accept his resignation. The
bridge Company" was q rather
novel corporation. Thecity wanted
some money to use for bonuses, and
also wanted a bridge. Bonds for a
bridge were voted for several
thousand dollars more than the
bridge would really cost. and. this
Bridge Company" received the full
amount obtained from the sale of
the bonds for constructing the
bridge. The profit" OF many
thousand dollars, nearly $3.50, 900, we
believe. was held in trust by the
company" and paid out for such
bonuses as met the approval OF d
General Committee that was
composed OF fifteen leading officials
and business men Of the city. The
plan has worked very nicely for St.
Cloud, and given that city quite an
advantage over other localities in
having cash bonuses at it's disposal.
Mr.. Calhoun was one of the five
directors, and after seven years of
attention to the matter he got tired
OF the responsibility. and decided to
quit. Some of mis- associates felt the
same, SO when u recent request was
made in proper form for the "com-
pany" to pay the expense of build
ing spur railroad track to a new
granite quarry. Calhoun and
another member declined to favor it..
They gave as their reason a desire
to. be out OF the company. The
General Committee gladly accepted
the designations, so now another
board Of directors are in charge OF
st. Clouds bonus fund.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE indica-
lions are that the house will drift along
for the remainder of the session giving
conference reports on appropriation
bills the right of way and disposing Of
such incidental matters as it can. There
is good deal Of pressure from certain
quarters for the consideration of the
Pacific railroad, funding bill and the
immigration bills and while there is a
probability that the latter. may be con-
sidered at the session, the leaders in
control of the house seem to have set
their faces against the funding bill for
this session unless it is prolonged be-
yond present anticipations. The immi-
grafton bill can hardly come up this
week as the chairman Of the committee,
Mr.. Bartholdt, is at his home in st.
Louis attending the state convention.
The Senate Programme. -
The probabilities are that the con-
sideration Of the river and harbor ap-
preparation bill will Be concluded early
in the week. According to agreement
this bill will be followed by the resolu-
ton to seat Mr.. Dupont as senator
from Delaware. With the Dupont reso-
luton disposed of, the bill making ap-
preparations for the District of Colum-
bia will be considered, and it probably
will consume the remainder of the
week.
The Cuban situation, as presented by
the imposition of the death sentence
upon the members Of the Competitor
party, brings forward a decidedly inter-
esting question which may result in an
attempt at action on this question by
the senate during the week. In fact,
the outlook in this direction is full of
possibilities.
