LOST EVERYTHING.
Fire Destroys tho House and
Household Goods Of
Leon Houde.

The home Of Leon HOude, on Maple
island, together with all his house
hold goods and personal effects were
completely destroyed by fire at an
early hour Tuesday morning.
HOude went home at about II
O'Clock last night, and before retiring
filed hiS heating stove with wood.
At about : O'Clock he was Weakened
by smoke In his room. and an inves-
tigation proved that the part of the
building In which the hea ting stove
was located was all ablase. HOude
occupied the nous. alone, and In his
feeble condition he was unable to do
ANYTHING to put out the fire. or save
any U tie contents Of the building.
As soon as the fire was discovered
by parties up town. one of the chem
ica) engines was taken down, but
the fire had gained such Roadway
that the chemical engine could DO
nothing to stav its progress.
MIR. HOude carried 500 insurance;
$500 on househOl.:: goods and sou
on the bui'ninx.
He thinks the fire originated from
the stove, as tn, fire was all around
the stove wren he discovered it
Considering the condition of his
health, Mr. HOude was fortunate in
escaping with bis life.

A Strong Company.

The EmDire Comedy company,
which opened three nights en-
gagement at the Gross, opera house

perfOrman here that 1t is one VI the
strongest companies on the road
aud entitled to a full share OF the
patronage OF our citizens. The
title:"i the play was "Tne Man from
California" 1t is an exceedingly in
terestiDg melodrama with enough
humOr to he highly amusing. Each
character in the cast was we'll repre-
sented, and the audience was highly
pleased. The company will present
tonight, "Dad's Darling" piece
written especially for this company,
and which has never before been
presented in this city. This play ia
said to he the best In the cOmpany's
repertoire, and il certain to be ably
presented and pleasing. The CON-
peny deserves and. will without
doubt, have u much larger audience
than greeted it ON Monday evening

Most of the complaints about
high freight rates have come from
The Red Riyer valley, and now it
is shown that the rates on grain
from the valley towns are from 10
to 90 per cent lower than from the
southwestern part of the state.
As an example the rate per 100
from Luverne to Minneapolis is
II cents-distance 222 miles.
From Breckenridge to Minneapolis
223 miles and the rate is 13 cents.

Divorced.

A recent issme of the Hamilton
(Ohio) Evening Democrat, contains
the following short item concerning
former residents Of this city: LOT
tie M. Myers has been granted a d.
vorce from Joseuh A. Myers, on the
grounds Of gross neglect. The cou-
pie were married in January, 1897"
Mrs. Myers was before marriage Miss
Lottie NJ. O'Conner, daughter OF j.
O'COnner. at one time foreman of
the Hennepin Paper compaDy'a pulp
mill in this city. Joseph A. Meyer
was at one time switchman for the
Northern Pacific here, and the cou-
pies marriage, which occurred here
about rwO years ago. will be remem-
as being somewhat OF sensation.
Mr.. Myers removed to Dunkirk,
shortly after his marriage, to which
place his wife also went soon after he
left here. They lived together
but short time and she is now
with her parents at Hamilton. O..
Meyers has enl,sted in the Thirteenth
United States infantry, which recent
~ left New York for Cuba.

SOME OF eEDE's sUDCEs.

SOME OF 6EDE's sUDCEs.
From Bede's Budget:
There were many things that
happsnedtin the old year that you
must remember to forget.
Ex.Gov. Merriam would like to
60 to st. Petersburg, but it Is
hardly probable that Mrs. Davis
will let him.
Nobody need complain if John
Limbs message isn't exactly like
his campaign speeches, for he has
always advocated the double stand
ard.
Great Britain is having an un.
usually. open winter, which is
probably part Of the open door
policy in the East. The annexa.
tion of tropical countries is also
mate, tally affecting our climate.
1t doesn't matter much whether
you call US the Anglo.Saxon,
Anglo-Celtic or Bromo.Srltzer
race, we are the people with a
great head and an eagle eye. And
moreover we are a devoutly relig.
ious nation whose very emblem is
bird of prey.
We remember in childhood's
happy hours to have heard of a
certain Bo Peep who had lost her
sheep and didn't know where to
find them, but she was pacified
with the assurance, ''let them
alone and they'll come home, with
their long tails behind them" So
ii is with the Philippine question.
The nation has apparently lost it's
bearings and no one seems to
know just where to find them, hut
if the people will be patient and
give the question little time it
will settle itself. The only danger
now il from the haste of dog
matism. We are not lost, but the
ship of state has cited new OBJ
ject in its course and is taking its
reckonings. There is land ahead.
May be it is piece Of the United
States.

Inc EmpT00D Oh 0exm00ys
The empress Of Germany loses no op-
portunity of "doing little kindnesses''
wherever she goes. A very pretty story
is told of her recent visit to Westphalia
during the maneuvers. In village close
to the imperial headquarters the widow
Of a captain in the merchant service co.
cupies a small room. She is invalided,
bedridden and very old. but her one
great wish was to see the empress drive
past the carpenters cottage where she
lies on her little bed. Some kind soul had
suggested to the empress chamberlain
that it would be a great kindness if the
imperial carriage would be allowed to
drive slowly when passing the invalid q
window. The request came to the en-
press ears, and in her kindness of heart
she left her carriage, paid long visit
to the siokroom and left the lonely suf-
ferer in state Of happiness greater than
words can Observation-Disclosures Gazette.
