FIRE IN HIGH SCHOOL.

Contest and the Audience ia
Stanpeded.

Kenosha, Wis, March Especial.
-Kenosha's magnificent $4,000 high
school building had a narrow escape from
being destroyed by fire last night and
had it not been for the bravery of Louis
Ferry, one of the pupils, the building
would have been badly damaged and
many lives endangered, perhaps lost. Dur
ing the evening crowd of over 500 peo-
pie gathered IL the auditorium of the
building to attend the defamation con-
test
Shortly after the announcement of The
decision of the judges one of the young
ladies onAthe stage knocked lamp over.
The stage was a temporary one. built of
infammable material, and the flames
spread rapidly.
The cry of fire was raised and 4 panic
ensued. The great crowd surged to the
doors and for moment it seemed that
some one must certainly be injured in
the rush. The men made an effort TO
quench the flames. but the oil had poured
down between the boards of the stage
and 1T was impossible to reach the flames.
Finally Louis Ferry volunteered to
crawl in between the burning stage and
the floor. For fully five minutes he re-
manned in the very midst of the flames,
and finally managed TO eXtingulsh them
When he returned from his perilOus po-
stion the building resounded with cheers.
The young man escaped with only few
slight burns on his hands and face.

THEY CAN GET DRUNK.
West Superior Wide Open to- Lun :
berjacks Willing to Spend
Their Money!.

West Superior, Wis. March 1!.-[Spc-
ciai. l-Lumberjacks can get as drunk as
they please in this city and not be ar
rested If they create disturbance they
will be taken to the police station, sObered
up, lectured and then set free again
Chief of Police Luton has decided to
adopt a lenient policy toward lumber
jacks. Complaints are being made this
spring just as they were last year. to the
effect that the merchants and saloon men
are not receiving the lumberjacks' pat
ronage as much as they should, while in
Duluth the opposite is the case. The pO-
lice here claim that the Duluth men, in
terested in getting large numbers of lum-
berjacks in town, spread it through the
camps that the police here will arrest
them and send them TO the rOckpile as
soon as they get a trife overburdened
with intoxicants. Chief Luton has CIV
en- orders that the woodsmen be not mo-
Tested unless they become so drunk that
they are unable to take care of them
selves or make disturbance. If they
are not especially obnoxious they will be
taken to police headquarters to sober up
and then let out again. The chief says
that it is his policy to protect these men
rather than to prosecute them.
