The MOvius Fire

The Lidgerwood Broadaxe in
it's issue of November 9th, gives
the losses of the Moyius families,
once residences of Big Stone
City, in the fire which occurred
in Lidgerwood on the Oath ult.,
as follows: Movius Bros, $38. 900
with SIS, 500 Insurance.; E. A.
Movius 81, 800, with 81, $50 in
surance; E. F. Movius 81, 500,
with 81, 800 insurance. Half a
dozen other parties suffered
losses to the amount of about
$4,000. The paper gives the
discovery Of the fire as follows:
E. A. Movius was aroused about 2
O'Clock Monday morning by his little
son coming into his room and com
planning that the smoke in their room
was SO dense that he and his brother
could not stand it. Mistrusting moth
ing OF the disaster that was upon him
he jumped out of bed to see what
was making the smoke and his bare
feet striking the floor told him swiftly
what the cause was. The floor was
hot. The store below must be on fire.
Soon he was out on the porch crying
lire n ''help' The night watch
heard him and let him know he heard
by firing his revolver. Soon the night
watch had the fire bell ringing and a
crowd began to pour out from all
around.
The first corners tt the fire saw thai
it a already gained good headway
in the little workshop back of the fur.
nlture department, and a bright blaze
from that room showed how serious
was.
The terror of the fire was upon Mr.
Movius and family. The fear tina
the acetylene gas plant would explod'
and destroy them before they coul,
reach the ground took hold on them
Before the firemen could hustle GU
the hook and ladder truck the tw'
boys were got down by Will Howard
who climbed the telephone pole to &c
them. Mr.. and Mrs. Movius followe
next and not without many a painfr
bruise. The hired men who were sleeI
ing in the house were alarmed, an
they escaped with difficulty, on
through the little window in from
receiving cuts and bruises in gettin
away.
, Meantime the fire grew with almos
\ miraculous swiftness and it was see
\ that the building was doomed. Hardl
) had the last living soul left it befor
the feared explosion of the gas plar
/ took place. 1t was a fearful sight
\ The building gave a convulsive heave
\ as if it were almost raised from tn
\ foundatians, an aurora of light fie'
y out in all directions, debris filed tn
! air, and a deafening explosion cam
Then the house sank like a house {
) sand in an angry wave.

it was announced that one dozen photo

were not penny pictures or cheap

mind and make your friends happy at a
very low cost We are making photo
graphs all the time and find we are kept
busy by pleasing the people and do not
have to work at other lines to help pay
expenses. You will find everything new
and up-to-date and both ourself and
assistant will be pleased to have you call
at the studio on Front street whether
you have photos taken or not. AS an
extra inducement to all, we will from
February Oath to March 10th make IA
dozen photos for the price of one dozen

yourself of this opportunity, it will be
necessary to cut out the cupon at the

There is pretty story in connection
with the series of articles which Helen
Keller, the wonderful blind girl, has
written for The Ladies' Home Journal,
telling about her own life from infancy
to the present day. She always has
shrunk from the publicity which follows
successful literary work, and it was with
great difficulty that she was persuaded
to take up the task of preparing her au-
TOPOGRAPHY. Just before Christmas she
completed the first chapter of her mar
velous story; and on Christmas morning
she received from her publishers check
for good round sum. Her delight may
be imagined, for this was the first money
of any account which she had ever
earned 1T is a fairy tale come true, y
she said. Whether she will really carry
out her plan to buy the island remains
to be seen

THE final report of the Industrial Com
mission, handed i'll at Washington on
Monday, contains some interesting hg-
ures. 1t cites that the Department OF
Labor has compiled statistics showing
the losses of employers and employees as
a result of strikes and lockouts. Ac-
cording to these statistics the aggregate
loss to employees in wages, as the result
of labor disputes from 1881 to 1900, in
elusive, was $3O6, 683, 223, or little over
$15,0O0,00O yearly. The loss to employ
ers during the same period is stated at
$142,6 $50, 1O4, or rather less than half the
amount lost by strikers. The aggregate
losses thus amount to nearly $3.50, 900,
600, or an average of about S22,5OO,O OO
yearly. The report adds that it is be-
lieved that the aggregate mem bership
of labor organizations ii the United
States at the present time is nearly
100000.

WHY is theirs so much sympathy vast
ed on Cuba? This country has given
her freedom, and her people wish self
government and they are to have it. But,
they wish more. They would like our
markets. Would like to reach the great
trade of this country on better terms
than are accorded other nations. And
there is no earthly reason why they
should. Cuba's position is very much
like man or little colony of people,
who live just over the line Of an incor-
porated city. They may wish all the ad-
vantages of city schools, of lig hts, of
water, etc., but not be willing to pay
taxes for them. So with Cuba. Ii she
wishes the privilege of this great coun-
try, let her become part of it, or pay
then the way other nations do.-Elkhorn
