Timber Matters.

The Minnesota congressional delega-
tion met in Mr.. Tawney's committee
room in Washington to consider again
the Morris timber bill 1t is expected
that a complete agreement will be
reached, and that bill will be evolved
that the delegation will support. 1t
will provide for the cutting of timber
DIN all reservations at price to be
named, probably not less than SIS per
thousand feet. 1t will also provide
for cutting all timber from all tracts,
Indian labor to be employed as far as
possible. The secretary of the interior
will be given the option of requiring
purchasers of timber to establish mills
on the reservation to manufacture the
timber.
Indian labor will also be employed
in this work as far as possible The
bill will provide for the reservation of
islands in Leech and Cass lakes, Sugar
Point and per cent of the timber
lands to be reserved for seed trees.

Butter and Cheese.

w. w. P. Mcconnell, state dairy and
food commissioner, is receiving letters
daily from all parts of the state asking
the help of his department in estab-
fishing creameries and cheese facto-
ries The first requisite to such an en-
terprise is the interest of the farmers
of the vicinity and their assurance of
support. To arrive at this it is usual
to hold neighborhood meetings, and
Mr.. Mcconnell or some one of his corps
of inspectors is in demand to address
these gatherings. Requests have come
recently from Milaca, from Kittson
county, and one even from far-oH
Idaho. This last was answered by
sending some blanks for use in organ
izing a creamery association. Mr.: Nc
Connell thinks the outlook promises a
great impetus this season in the dairy
industry of the state.

Fire at the University.

There was blaze in the anatomical
laboratory at the university which re-
suited in a loss of $4,000. The fire
started in the basement, where the
crematory is located, and the flames
followed the elevator shaft. There
were twenty 'cadavers' on the tables
in the dissecting room. Many of these
were consumed. The students re-
sponded to the cry of fire and aided
materially in saving the valuable libra
ries of Professors Erdman and Read,
whose Offices are in the building. The
anatomy building was constructed
about a year and a half ago. It is a
three-story structure of artistic design.
The chipping of the brick about the
windows is the only outside DETACHMENT.

Church Burned.

The Peoples church, situated at
Pleasant and Chestnut avenues in St.
Paul, was destroyed by fire. Portions
of the walls alone were left standing,
but it is believed they will have to be
pulled down. The total loss probably
will exceed $4,000. The loss on the
building was $4,000; on organ, SIS, 900;
on interior decorations, $4,000, on IL
brary of pastor, $4,000. There was
$50, 900 insurance on the building and
contents and $4,000 on the library
Samuel G. Smith was the pastor.

Fort Smelling.

Representative Stevens is now of
the opinion that the prospects for
Fort Smelling to be made one of the
great military posts of the country
are much better than they were.
He has recently had conference
with the secretary of war and with
members of the military board which
is selecting camp sites, and he thinks
that the army officers are undergoing
a change of mind.
He says that the permanent pro-
gram for Fort Smelling, in his opinion,
will involve an expenditure of at least
100000 on improvements.

Extra Session.

It is over twenty years since an
extra session of the Minnesota legis-
lature has been held. Governor Pills.
bury called this extra session Sept. 49,,
1881. He announced that the legisla-
ture would meet Oct. II ''to take such
action as should seem requisite to pro-
tect the honor and credit and subserve
the welfare of the state," in connec-
ton with the claims arising from the
issue of the Minnesota state railroad
bonds.

A Close Call.

Maud Lee, daughter of Mr.. Lee, of
Minneapolis, struck match to light
a lamp and a spark lodged in her hair.
In an instant she was ablaze, but,
fortunately, Mrs. Lee and another
daughter were in an adjoining room.
They succeeded in smothering the
flames. A portion of Miss Lees hair
was burned, but her face was not
scorched.
