the West side, where the VOID shed

was discovered on fire. TIE fire de-
partment turned out and succeeded
In putting out the fire before any
considerable damage had been done.
The fire was evidently Of incendtary
origin. az there was no stoves In or
around the building, and 1t is said
that man was seen to leave the
building at a rapid pace shortly be-
fore the fire was discovered. The
building was insured by one of the
companies represented by Signor &
Schallern.
The second fire broke out just be.

astrous than the first. A great
MANY OF the fireman had just time
enough tn get home from the first
fire, and retire, when the alarm was
sounded for the second. The fire

very few articles of their household

The fire caught In the north pOr-

from the kitchen stove, and was be-

TALK oFANlofHEjRi.
Some Think the st. Paul and
F..s Duluth can be Induced ~.
to Come Here.

Recently, while ut Mile Laos lake
IN business. Chas. Gravel met one Of
the survey Ors that had been survey
ing line for \ proposed road from
Kettle River to Mile Laos lake by
The st. Paul 4 Duluth road. and had
quite a lengthy conversation with
him In regard to what the probable
action Of that company would be in
regard to that line. The surveyor
expressed an opinion that the st.
Paul & Duluth would certainly bu, I'D
the Proposed line sOme time in the
future. and It was quite probable
that 1t would be built the coming
season. He further stated that it
was his opinion that the company
would extend the line from Mile
Laos to this city II the proper in
ducenents were offered. va.
Mr.. Gravel Is quite enthusiastic
over the prospect for the read, and
has been making an effort to get the
business men and citizens of this
place to take some concerted action
In the matter to SEE just what kind
III proposition can he made to the
company by the several communities
between here and Mile Lack. Letters
ha We been written to the officials Of
that road aeking them tn investigate
the advantages offered from Mile
Laos to this place. and to submit a
proposition OF what the company
would expect in the way Of aid for
it's construction. OF course all our
business men are not az enthusiastic
as Mr.. GRAY vel in this matter. Some
argue that the proposed road would
he detriment to the city by reason
of causing other communities, to
spring up. thereby diverting the
trade of one Of the most prosperous
sections Of the county away from US
Others take q different view, and
think that the road would he of
great benefit to the city. Such a
large and prosperous section OF
country as lies between this place
and Mile Laos cannot remain long
without railroad facilities, and II q
road Ia not built from this place one
will from some other point. There
has been some talk OF a line from st.
Cloud or Sank Rapids up through
Rich Prairie. Such line would cut
off much more trade from this citv
than would al the communities thai
would spring into existence by the
building OF the other line, and We
would have none Of the other ad-
vantages we would have by a line
from this city. ..s.s..sa,.~ ... ~. .s.....
OF course, as yet. there is nothing
but a remote prospect for the road.
but 1t would seem that the matter ia
worthy OF all the attention our,
citizens can give 1t that this city
may have the advantages Of an.
other railroad. independent of the
one that We now have.

A sensible proposition has been
advanced by a druggist in Brook.
Ign, for the prevention Of &C.
cidental poison. His idea is that
the bottles containing poison
should be of an entirely different
shape from the ordinary bottles
used for prescriptions, which
could easily be distinguished by
the touch. A low, squatty bottle
with broad base would be about
the proper thing, as it would not
not be liable to tip over in taking
from shelf and accidents such as
has been known from the careless
handling Of carbolic acid or corro-
sive sublimate; would be pre-.
vented. Saltwater Gazette.

STRIKE TWO BY THE Beers.
Another Armored Train Blown Tn
Near Mafeking.

! London, Oct. lG.-The Exchange Tele.

Rustenburg and Marice commanders have
crossed the border and entered the Roo
igrond territory between Lichtenburg and
Mafeking, blowing up bridges over the
Maloppo river and destroying a trainload
of dynamite and the track. As MAIZE
king depends upon Rooigrond for its water
supply, the significance OF this move is
evident

his command has occupied Botohas pass
and also captured the railway station"
The latest reports from every burg say
the armored train that was destroyed at
Kraapan contained, in addition to Mes
