ENTIRELY MED.
The Residence of Leon Boio.
Njoli, Destroyed by Fire
IL Saturday Morning.

The residence of leon BOisjOl'. Jr.,
situated on Sixth street and Eighth
avenue northeast, together with
nearly all the household goods and
other contents, was destroyed by
fire Friday morning.
The alarm was given by the switch
engine whistling. and telephone
message from the depot, but owing
to the great distance from the city,
and the fact that there are no n.y.
drants in that locality. the fire de-
partment was of little use. The
chemical and hook and ladder COM
panies responded, but when they
arrived at the fire it had gained
such Roadway that an attempt to
put it out would have been useless.
The house was SO situated that
there was no danger to other pro-
pcrty, and after they had removed
n shed that adjoined the main build
ing, the fire was allowed full swing
and the building was totally de
strOved.
The owner of the house, with his
family. was away visiting rela tives
at Belle Prairie, and had left the
house in charge Of Chas. Leheau.
Mr.. Lebeau started u fire this morn
ing to keep the vegetables in the
cellar from freezing and it is per-
sumed that the house caught fire
from the stOve-pipe that il used in
place of a chimney. OF the contents
OF the house but little was saved
and the articles taken from the
building were in Il badly damaged
condition.

Mrs. O. A. Coe died at her home in
Belle Prairie Thursday afternoon,
Jan.2, at the age Of 76 years, of

Belle Prairie with her husband in
1853, and they have lived there since
that time. She had been in rather
Door health for several months, but
her death was unexpected. Mr.. COe

and a member of the Congregational
church of this city.

There are some items that do not
come strictly within the line 81
county expense, as the very large
payment county interest was due to
the funding of the county debt. and
the consequent payment OF allthe
interest ON county orders. Other
items run over from last year, such
as Sheriff Houde's bill Of over 81 ,OCO.
and there are in turn bills of 1873
that will he paid in 1885,.
1t is not possible yet to give the
cOunty's income, or to make exact
comparisons OF expense and in
come. As an indica ton. however,
it may be stated tn 1T
on Jan. /, 1895, there were Outstand-
ing county orders to the amount ut
$26. 79O.7O, and. the revenue account
was overdrawn $931.93. making a
total county revenue deb t Of $27,-
722.63. Finding bonds were issued
that brought the county $500.
On Jan. l, 1896. we understand there
was a small amount of money in the
county revenue fund, and NO orders
outstanding. If that was the case
county revenue receipts @(outside
that from bonds) must have been
considerably more than the ex-
penses.

RECRUITS ADMITTED.

Mrs. Stil1well, wife of. Maj. Still
well. of st. Paul, who is in charge of
the department Of Minnesota of the
Salvation Army, has been In the
city since Saturday., and lead the
meetings of the local army since
that time. Mrs. Stillwell was here
for the purpose of conducting the
ceremonies of mastering in a large
number of recruits that have been
secured in this city. She was &C.
companied by several young ladies
who compose the singing brigade.
At the .. services Saturday evening
Mrs. Sutherland her staff OF assist
ants were all dressed in slum attire,
and represented the members of the
Salvation Army as they appear u
their work in the slum districts OF
the large cities.
The mastering in Of recruits was
held at the meeting on Sunday night
and a class of twenty-five stood up
on the stage and were sworn in. In
reading the obligations imposed up
on all members Of the army, Mrs.
Stillwell most elOqueutly exhOrted
ali the candidate for admission to
be faithful TO the promises they were
required to make. Sine also gave
them to understand that II they
were joining the army for the pur-
pose of getting an office, thew were
doomed to disappointment unless
they could show after long season
of probation that they were sui
1icieDtIy intelligent and otherwise
worthy Of filling one.
Mrs. StiIlwell is an intelligent and
forcible talker and she gave great
deal of interesting information in re-
gard to the methods of the army
used in training and educating their
officers at their training schools.
She is q most earnest worker in the
cause of religion, and just now re-
turning from a mastering trip
through lile H''"ieiH PdIC VI t'e
state. Indeed, it seems. as Mrs.
Stillwell says, that any who
join the Salvation Army, thinking
they have no wO1k to do, soon find
that they are mistaken.
The singing brigade, which has &C
companied Mrs. Stillwell on this
trip, contributed greatly to the mu-
steal exercises Of the meetings. They
all possess fine voices and sang
solos, duets and chOruses In q man.
ner that was highly appreciated.
On both Saturday and Sunday
evenings an admission OF 10 cents
was charged and all the available
space of the. hall was occupied.

The fire was discovered by Mrs.

o'clock. aud the alarm was given as
soon az possible, hut as It was Sun
day morning. and only few people
around ut that time, it was several
minutes before the department. got
to work on the fire. "a
The origin Of the fire IL only sur
missed, as there was no one In. the
house at the time it caught. Mrs.

Mr.. German was at Randall, having
gone on the midnight train Satur-

1t ia supposed that when Mr..
German left the house tO,~take the
train Saturday night he lefta strong
fire burning in the heating stove.
and that the stove pipe which was
not wired. fell out Of the chimney
and ignited the walls. The whole
upper story of the buil,ing and the
roof was destroyed, and some Of the
partitions ON the ground floor are
badly damaged and will have be en-
tirely replaced. The building Is
brick veneered, and although the
walls and chimney are still standing.
they will in all probability have t"
be. in part at least, pulled down to
put the building In Il safe condition

A son OF Mr.. Jansen was up and
out of doors at O'Clock in the
morning, and says that he saw a
light in the house at that time. but
supposed 1t was a lamp. From the
condition of the furniture it was
evident the fire had burned for some
time in the house before it was dis
covered. What seems peculiar IL
that Mrs. Jansen, who was the first
one at the burning building found
the back door open, and when the
firemen opened the front door it WAS
found unlocked. II Mr.. German left
