The fire alarm was sounded at 10
o'clock Thursday morning and it was
soon learned that DIR. Perkins place was
on fire. The fire started on the second
floor, evidently from some detect in the
chimney. 1t was some minutes after the
fire was discovered before it broke
through the roof, and those who first ap-
peared seemed to think that they could
extinguish the fire all right; but this they
were unable to do. They had nothing
to do with--a few pals that had been
picked up and an AK.
Those who were not occupied in fight
ing the fire proceeded to clear the lower
Don of all articles OF furniture, and
a few things from the rooms up
stairs we're saved. Nothing was saved
from the cellar. Mrs. Perkins lost a
diamond ring and several other personal
effects that she valued highly. Miss
Lizzie Anderson, who was stopping with
DIR. and Mrs. Perkins, lost the greater
portion of her wearing apparel.
The house, located on the corner of
Sims and Billings street, belonged to
VIM. Ray, and was the first dwelling
erected in Dickinson. James Collister
built it in 1882, a year before Mr.. Ray
located here. The house was fully in
sured with A. Hilliard as follows:
Springfield Fire & Marine, $500
Commercial Union, $500
DIR. Perkins household goods were in
sured in M. L. Ayers agency in the
Norwich Union for $500. Just what the
loss will foot up is hard to say. The
doctor estimates his loss at $500.
The hose company boys responded
promptly when the fire alarm was sound
ed, but they were unable to get water Tor
some time. One or two of the N. P.
hydrants were found to be frozen and
just about 10 minutes before the fire the
N. P. we'll had been pumped dry, which
threw the hose company back onto the
N. P. tank, and at the further end of
1900 feet of hose tank pressure was
found to be very deficient. In fact, the
pressure was so light that it would not
force the water through the hose fast
enough to prevent its freezing. The
boys had to %uncouple each section of
hose and let the water run through to
clear the frozen slush. So that when the
water was finally extended through the
hose, the house had already burned to
the ground. Even if the boys could
have secured water Immediately, with
nothing but tank pressure, they could
have done very little more than was
done.
There was some alarm for the safety
of the DR.. Davis residence, situated on
the opposite side Of Sims street, but the
wind blew the flames a little south of
east, which could not have been more
favorable. If the wind had been blow
ing from the south, southeast or south
west the Episcopal church would al
most certainly have burned, and there is
no telling where the fire would have end
ed.
You could hear the people saying in
the street, "well Dickinson has had an
other most fortunate fire." meaning that
a general conAagration had heen escap-

DICKINSON has a volunteer fire
company which gets out every
time an alarm is sounded. The
boys work hard with what they
have to do with, get cold and wet,
as they did on Thursday of this
week, and what thanks do they
get7 None! How many business
men would have gotten out in
Thursdays biting wind and work

company boys? A very few.

WANTED TO KICK A MAJOR.
Winston Churchill's Little Joke ON
Pompous, self-Opinionated
officer.

Among the assembled officers at q
recent supper in South Africa was a
very pompous, self-opinionated major,
whose rank commanded for him re-
spectful hearing, but whose habit of in-
structing his brethren in matters mill.
tary, both in and out of season, made
him rather unpopular. Winston
Churchill and the major sat side by side
at the table, and the martial poten-
tate voiced his opinions in the usual
manner. Churchill bore the infliction
dumbly for a season; then, taking adj
vantage of a pause, when the major
wanted to take breath. he said, very
complacently and irrelevantly: do
you know, major, met a man this
morning who would gladly forfeit e 50
for the pleasure of kicking you"
Kicking me, sir!" roared the angry
major; kicking me! / must ask YOU
to mention his name immediately"
"But the fact is, major, am not sure
that I ought to tell you," replied
Churchill, with well-assumed caution.
"But I insist on knowing his name at
once, STRIP shouted the truculent off,
Ger. now red with rage. "WeIl, sir, I
suppose must tell you. 1t was a poor

Farm.

Upon the condition that William
Berlin, 80 years old, shall take good
care of his mother during her life
time, and shall furnish her with all
the frewood made ready for the
stove" and coal that she may require,
he is to receive farm of 1875 acres at
Palatine, ILL.,, from the estate of his
deceased father, John C. Berlin,
whose will was filed in the probate
court at Chicago the other day
Mr.. Berlin died month ago, leav-
ing real estate worth $1,000, the whole
of which he devised to his widow, four
sons and three daughters. But Will
liam was favorite son of the father,
and he received the largest portion
of the property upon the above-named
condition. The widow gets the home
stead.
This clause of the instrument reads
as follows: Provided my son, Will.
liam Berlin, shall be kind to his moth
er and shall furnish her all the fire.
wood, made ready for the stove, or
coal that she may require during her
lifetime, or where she may require it,
and he shall prepare and conduct the
farm agreeable to the wishes of his
mother, and shall deliver to her annu-
ally one-fourth of all the proceeds
from said farm in money after thresh-
ing shall be DONE"
The will was drawn in 1896, when
William was 20 years old.

CHASED BY A CINNAMON BEAR
Thrilling Experience of a Hunting
Party on Colorado
Railway.

Robert Martin, a well-known hunt
er and cattleman of Archuleta county,
Col, arrived at Denver the other day
and related an experience that he had
just passed through with a big Gin
namon bear. Martin was with Rio
Grand section gang in Cumbres pass
repairing ties and travelling by means
of handcar. Work had hardly COM
menced before a little cinnamon bear
appeared in search of it's mother.
The men captured the cub after
strategic moves and tied him to the
handcar, which was put on the track.
He Immediately commenced to howl
for the dam, and in a few minutes q
big, lean, lank mother made her ap-
pearance and started for her cub with
blood in her eye. The men immedi-
ately rushed the car toward the down
grade and started to work, with the
bear ten feet behind. The harder the
men worked the faster the bear ran,
and Martin, who was sitting with his
feet hanging over the rear of the car
had one shoe torn off by her claws in
sudden squirt. Another jump and
the dam almost made the car, but fell,
but was on her feet in moment.
For three miles the bear chased the
car on down grade and was only
stopped by gulch trestle. The cul
remained the section mems trophy.

THE STATE FAIR.
Figures show That the surpIus from
the Big Show This Year Is
Close to $4,000.

Treasurer g. D. Ellyson, OF the Iowa
state fair, gave out the substance OF
his report covering the state fair OF
1900. It shows that there is sur
plus Of about $4,000 on hand in the
treasury of the fair department.
A total of $4s, 4ee.49 was taken in at
the gates during the fair of 1900 In
addition about 1875 railroad tickets
were taken up. These are to be re-
deemed by the railroads at 80 cents
each. This will add $685., or in that
neighborhood, to the s4s,4se.4e, max
ing $52,431.49 total receipts on account
of the fair of 1900.
The expenses of the 1899 fair were
$26,694.75. It is estimated that the ex-
penses this year will be $1,000 greater
than last year. This will leave sur
plus on account of the fair Of 1900 of
$eo,74e.74.
About $1,000 of the surplus gained
at the fair of 1899 is on hand in the
fair treasury. This added to the sur
plus of the 1900 fair gives almost $780,
600 on hand for the advancement Of
the society and the fair Of 1901.

The anti-ice trust resolution adopt.
ed by the democratic state convention
of New York reads:
"That we especially condemn and de.
nouuce that illegal corporate comb.
nation known as the ice trust, which
particularly Expresses the poor and
arbitrarily raises the price for one of
the necessaries of life, and we demand
that the republican encouragement
proceed with diligence for the legal
destruction of the said trust"
AS neither the republican attorney
general nor the republican governor
has thus far taken any steps for the
suppression of the trust, it is to be in-
ferred that they do not want to sup
press it. A reason for their disinclin-
alton is to be found in the fact that
the organizer and president, most OF
the stockholders, and thirteen of the
fifteen directors are republicans and
are supporting Mckinley and Roose-

Outing Club Il Claimed by
One 8. n. Young.

Notice has been served on George
E. May, of Charles City, president of
the Outing club, Of Clear Lake, to give
possession of the club grounds to one
S. R. Young, who claims title to plat
equal to six lots in length and 11a in
width. The Outing club is the leading
club at the lake, there being about SO
members living in various parts of the
state. The club was organized four
years ago when the ground was pur-
chased. A commodious dining hall oc-
cupies the site and there are many
cottages contiguous. The club will de-
fend the title. Several prominent
attorneys of Iowa are members.
