in'his direction. Mr.. Sperry caught the
spirit Of the times in which he was
plating his land. and has named the
principal streets as follows: Havana,
Hawaii, Manila and Porto Rico.
What might have resulted in a seri-
GUS conflagration occurred at the store
Of Johnson, Fridlund & Moline last
Saturday night A small box of saw
dust which had been used as a cuspi-
dor in the store had ignited from a
cigar stub which had been carelessly
thrown in by some one The next
morning when the store was opened it
was filled with smoke and upon closer
investigation it was found that a hole
the size of the box was burned through
the floor and the box had dropped in
to the basement. The damp saw dust
burning 80 slowly was the only thing
that arrested a large blaze. 1t was
very narrow escape.
