For the first time in "a year, the alarm
Of fire was sounded about 10 O'Clock last
Monday morning, at the residence of
Mr.. II. II. LaDue on the corner OF
Broadway and Anderson Avenue. 1t
appears that glass can of gusoleno sit
ting on shelf oyer the stoye exploded
from some,unknown cause, which was
at once iguited and set fire to the frame
work of an unfinished portion of the
house. The clothes Of Mrs. La Due, who
WAS working around the stove ut the
time, also caught fire, but with cool
ness seldom exhibited on such occasions,
she rushed out Of tho house and threw
herself among the weeds in the yard
and soon smothered the flames. For.
only the lower portion OF her
legs were burned. but not serionsly.
The first alarm brought out quite large
number Of people. and by tho use OF
chemical extinsnishers and water from
the well. the fire was soon subdued.
Several holes had to be chopped in the
roof, but aside from this very little dam
age resulted. 1t Was u narrow escape.
however, for the building, and only
Mrs. LaDue's presence Of mind saved
her from u painful death.

to the readers Of the Graphic:
Dear sir:--Ye esterday (Monday) Aug.

'cerned for good beef and feeding steers

there will be q very good deMand ~
all classes Of good quality FEEDERS, stwot'
year olds and upwards. There is also
very good demand here for fat cows
and heifsrs that are not good enough 10
breed, we advise shipping regardless OF
ages as that class Of stock will sell higher
this year than for sometime to cons.
There has been no good feeding steers
on the market yet from the Dakotus
and Montana
SHEEP.
Grass range sheep are not selling as
high as they did 80 days ago. but prices
are higher here in Chicago than on any
other market. Good fat grass weathers
is selling this week, from 500 to 430.
Feeding weathors $3.s5 to AGO. FA
ewes 1915 to s4.OO. Common and
medium ewes So SO to S3.65. We are hay
ing Il very good demand here for good
feeding sheep and would advise shippers
to come direct to Chicago with all classes
OF sheen. as this is the only market in
the United States. Consign your stock
to the North American Live Stock Com
mission Company, Union Stock Yards,
Chicago. ILL.,. if you want full market

The Graphic was in error last week in
stating that Supt. Waldron had resigned
as teacher in the G,innell school, The
fact is, Mr.. Waldron only contracted to
teach the school for a term of two
months, for the reason that he could
not contract for a longer period because
of his official duties at this time of the
year.
John J.. Clements, and his brotl,er-in-
law Walter King, were in the city yes
terday on business. These gentlemen
are old McHen,y county settlers, but
now located near the mouth Of the
White Earth, in Ward county, where
they have ranches for superior and
more suitable for their purposes than
those they owned on the Mouse river.
We are glad to see the Old boys and to
know that their worldly stock of goods
is increasing. Mr.. Clements is again
suffering with rheumatism, and contem-
plates making trip to the hot springs,
where lie was treated for the same
trouble three years ago.

The second ten-mile handicap bicycle
race, which took place ut the race track
last Friday evening, was one Of the most
interesting as well as one of the most
exciting bicycle races that the people of
Williston haye witnessed. The crowd
was large, and the race WAS watched
with great interest. There was also
quite little money bet on Albert
Paterson and Leonard Scranton, the
two favorites. Through artistic training
Mr.. Paterson was the winner, but Scran-
ton gave him hard and close ride.
There were eight contestants in,
line, and the winners are as follows:
George Leonhardy with four minutes
handicap, took first money, NJ. G.. Cole
man with one and one half minutes
handicap, took second money, l.. V.
Coulter with four minutes handicap,
took third money, Chas. Scranton with
one and one-half minutes handicap.

7 The new kiln Of brick Just burnt by
the Bruegger Mercantile Co., was
opened this week, much to the gratifica-
ton of the owners. The brick III this
kiln turns out far superior to any they
have heretofore made, and demonstrate
that they have the right sort Of clay to
work with. OF course, they give much
credit to Mr.. Link, their foreman, for
these results, but to whatever cause
they may contribute the result, itls safe
to say that no better brick can be made
in the state than what they have now
on hand. n

VICTIMS OF THE STORM
300 PROBABLY DEAD BETWEEN DARRELL
ING AND KURSEONG ALONE.
Roads Blocked and Bridges Swept Away, Sol
diers Searching for Bodies. Storms
Wide Sweep Over Bengal.

Calcutta, Sept. 27.-1he great storm
of Sunday and Monday which caused de-
structive land slides and floods gathered
at the head of the bay of Calcutta and
then moved north, giving heavy rain III
Calcutta, Dinajpur, Ranpur aud .Ialpai-
guri. Its greatest fury was fel: at Oar
jeeling. simultaneously, another storm
gathered at Rangpur and passed west
ward from Purnea and Monghyr. The
usual weekly reports have not been re-
ceived by the Government and there IS
reason to fear that the district named is
flooded and communication Interrupted.
1t is estimated that between Darjeeling
and Kurseong alone 300 persons have
lost their lives
The line between Darjeeling and Son
ada will be blocked, probably for two
months. Both the upper and the lower
Puglajhoras have been carried away. a
number of bodies have been recovered
ON the Happy Valley estate. The sol
diers of the Munster regiment are search
ana for bodies and clearing the roads.
1t it reported that the Teesta suspen-
sion bridge has been broken away by
the floods and that Kalimpong is there
fore cut off from communication.
Gangs of natives and soldiers are
working to clear the roads. The storm
appears to have been extended all over
the northern portion of Bengal
Considerable damage has also been
done at Elidiguri, where a number OF
wooden huts and the plague camp have
been destroyed.
The subsistence of the hillside ut Oar
feeling continues and is causing alarm,
as it threatens to destroy the whole
Bazaar.
Although the delayed reports from
many sections prevent accurate esti-
mates. it is evident that the fatalities far
exceed three hundred. No fewer than
200 persons were killed iii the destrtc-
tion of Phool Bazaar alone and as many
as one hundred at Darjeeling.
Twenty one bodies have been recover
ed ait Tamsongbatee, where it is believed
that another twenty persons have been
killed. Advices from Rumgli show great
destruction in the tea gardens around
Poomonga. ON Monday night.
