SWEPT BY FLAMES.


East Grand Forks Has a $125,OOO
Grand Forks, n. d., Special-East
Grand Forks was visited by fire and
the saloons of w. T. Franklin, Dan
Sullivan, Russell & Doll, Gus Hines,
w. ID. Kelly and IllStad & I<ingStad,
the restaurant of Frank Rogers, Min
neapolis, and the Northern elevator
and the east approach of the Demers
avenue bridge were destroyed. The
fire is believed to have caught in the
rear basement in the Hines building,
and was probably incendiary in ORR
gin.
The trestle work of the approach to
the bridge was almost Immediately a
seething furnace, and as far back as
the approach ran was soon mass of
flames, and the efforts of the firemen
were directed to stopping the fire at
the end and saving the entire bridge.
Several narrow escapes by jumping a
distance of thirty feet were recorded.
One span of the steel bridge, as we'll as
the approach is gone, and the burned
district covers just one block on both
sides of the street. The saloons of
Franklin and Sullivan were the finest
in the Northwest, the latter cOmplet-
ing but a short time ago a handsome
three-Story block The heaviest indi-
vidual loser is Gus Hines, who SuS-
tains loss of $4,000 and carried an
insurance of One-fifth. There was no
wheat in the elevator. Insurance on
the structure is carried in Minneapolis.
Aside from the insurance it amounted
to $40, 450. The loss is probably $125,-
900.
During the progress of the fire an
other alarm went in from the north
part of this city, which was a large
barn owned by Andrew Ball, and
which was burned. 1t was also of in
cendiary origin Five horses and two
cows persisted. Loss is estimated at
$1,000; no insurance.

Miss Van Wyck Anderson Took

Tacoma, Wash, Special.-Miss Eliz-
abeth Van Wyck Anderson. niece of
Mayor Van Wyck of New York, and
daughter 0f Gen. Anderson, who was,
during hiSAlife, chief engineer of the
Northern Pacific railroad, while de-
lirious from fever eluded her watch
ers and fled from her house to the
sound and plunged in. The distance
to the sound is fully two miles, and
when the young woman left the house
she was but thinly clad and bare
headed. How she succeeded in max
ing her way to the old town wharf
without being intercepted is mys-
terry. John Burns, a policeman, heard
her cries for help and jumped in and
rescued the young woman. Miss An
derson is we'll known in Chicago and

woman is now at the hospital, and
physicians have hopes that her icy
bath will not result fatally.
