Destroyed BY Fire.

The first fire alarm for a long
period was turned in last evening
shortly after six O'Clock, when it was
discovered that the Lundquist resi-
dence on the corner of First street and
Becker avenue was ablaze. The FIRE
department turned out promptly and
managed to check the fire before it
gained much Roadway However,
quite little damage was done TO the
building as we'll as to some of the
househould property before it could
be removed.
The house was occupied by the
families of John Anderson, janitor
and baggageman at the depot and
Knut KnutsOn, section hand. The
fire originated in the rooms occupied
by knutsOn, who resided in the back
part OF the building, and Is said to
have been caused by defective stove
pipe. Knutson suffered the loss of
nearly all the family clothing as we'll
as = few articles of furniture that wers
more or less damaged, but managed
to save most of the household goods
on the lower floor. The Anderson
family Jared little better and we're
rather fortunate in getting their
furniture and wearing apparel out
with q small loss.
The total amount Of loss to the
occupants is not known at this writ
ing. 1t is reported that q member of
the Anderson family was lying i'll at
the time and the patient suffered
severe shock as the result of the fire.
The building belongs to the J. O
LuDdquist estate and Ia one of the old
landmarks of the city. It was for
merly known as the old Otos house.
There was light insurance. The
damage to the building will probably
not exceed $500.

entertainments provided by the Co.
lumbar Lyceum Bureau, the lecture
bJ DR.. John p. D. John, last Mon.
day evening, came fully up to the
standard set by the previous enter
talnments. The lecture was one of
the most interesting ones the writer
ever had the pleasure of listening to.
lie subject was 1.-THE Worth Of Man. :"
TIE fret part of the lecture was de-
voted to show the littleness of man,
viewed from a material standpoint
In the second part the lecturer showed
that the true worth OF man lies in his
spiritual nature. The lecturer pos
sesses the rare talent of combining
clear, incisive easoning with a per.
let mastery OF the arts of eloquence.
The audience was not as large as at
the preceding numbe of the course,
which is partly accounted for by the
cold weather.

Seminary Items.

The jolliest days of the term are
now being spent-in the examination
rooms.
The enrolment for this term is 81,
and the prospect for large enroll
ment during the winter term Is very
promising.
School closes at noon on Friday Tor
the Christmas vacation. Some of the
students will leave for their respective
destinations on Thursday evening, but
most OF them will remain here till Sat-
urday.
Hans Seland, the famous Norwegian
story teller, will give lecture at the
Seminary Hall on Friday evening Of
this week. 1t will surely be q treat
no one who understands Norwegian
can afford to miss. Admission, IS
cents.
John Enestvedt, Of Renville, left for
his home on Sunday evening. BE had
to leave school on account of weak
eyes, and will be unable to attend
school for some time to come. Before
be left some of the boys rendered him
a farewell party at Ole Klovstad' 8
room and they all report good time.
The cold weather kept most people
from coming to the entertainment
given by the "Osseo' Saturday even
ing, but nevertheless some sturdy
pioneers ventured out into the "beast-
ly' cold and came to enjoy the pro-
gram given by the "Osseo.' The time
for the next entertainment was set for
January Is.
We hope all students will enjoy a
merry Christmas, but would caution
them not to overdo it. To the student
the vacation should be primarily the
occasion for rest and recuperation, SO

Was Held up.

Hon. &. A. Glader met with some.
what novel experience on his way
out to his farm on Monday evening.
When about seven miles south of
here he was suddenly accosted by
two parties, one of whom went to the
head Of the horses and stopped them.
The other party did not take an active
part in the holdup, but stood by ard
witnessed the maneuvers of his COM
paniop. The man at the head CT the
team did not make any demands, but
simply obstructed the way and in.
du]ged in profanity. Finally Mr..
Glader got him away from the horses,
" ereupon the stranger grabbed a
piece of lumber from his own load
which was standing near and struck
the horses, at the same time attempt
ing to strike Mr.. Glader. Both OF
the parties had been imbibing liquid
refreshments too freely, and this
accounts for the holdup.-Atwate Re-

Lectures We're Interesting

Clarence S. Ongman presented his
popular lectures 10 the Swedish Luth.
eran church on Wednesday AID
Thursday evenings to highly appre.
ciatiye audiences. Although there
was an attendance both evenings thai
might be considered pretty fair, yet
the nature of the entertainments de-
served crowded houses. On Wednes.
day evening Mr.. Ongman spoke on
The Lntherans in America" and on
The following his topics were "The
Land OF the Midnight Sum-" and "The
Siege of Pekin." The latter was de-
livered in English.
The talks wee illustrated with some
exceptionally fine views, including a
number OF moving pictures, and were
among the best ever seen in this city
1t was q treat that those who were not
in attendance missed.
The lectures we're under the auspices
OF the Young Peoples Society and a
neat little sum was realized for the
sOciety's efforts.
