DR.. Banker has been app pointed assist
ant health officer. His most important
duty at present will be. 70 see to the on
sforcement Of the health ordinance. The
health board proposes to have the village
thoroughly cleaned this spring. All
garbage and refuse must be removed to
the place officially designated as dump
ing ground, and all persons will be.
strictly prohibited from dumping garb-
age etc, in any5other place. People are
disposed to heartily cooperate with the
board in this good work, and applaud
their efforts to preserve the village IN a
healthy sanitary condition. The spot
selected for dumping ground is in the
deep ravine mile west of the court
house and eight rods off the old county
road. A road will be cut and signs Will
be put up to show the exact location.
Willie Zimmerman, aged 10 years,
died at the home of his parents, Mr..
aud Mrs. Sam Zimmerman, yesterday
forenoon from being kicked by horse
last Wednesday. While unhitching the
horse, he broke away and ran into the
barn. Willie followed, and seeing bri-
die on the floor at the animals heels he
stopped to pick it up. As he was raising
up the horse kicked vlcious1y, striking
him in the stomach with both heels. He
was rendered unconscious by the blow,
but was soon apparently fully recovered
and went home and ate hearty dinner.
While down town during tho afternoon
he was taken deathly sick and had to be
taken home. DR.. Banker was called
and everything possible was done for
the boys relief. but without avail. The
funeral will be held Monday forenoon.
Deceased was an unusually industrious
boy, of exemplary habits, and dutiful
son: He was highly esteemed by all the
people who knew him, all of whom deeply
sympathize with his parents in their
terribly sudden bereavement.

FOREST FIRES,
A Few Useful Hints to People in the
Woods.

A Few Useful Hints to People in the
Woods.
Every summer and autumn large
acres of public and private forests are
devastated by fire. This destruction is
a universal injury. It not only destroys
valuable asset IN the list of the coun-
try's resources, but is productive of
foods. The forest is the most effective
means OF preventing foods and produce
ing more regular flow of water for irrl-
CATION and other useful purposes.
To prevent the misch1evous forst fires,
congress has enacted law which forbids
setting fire to the woods, and forbids
leaving fires (camp fires and otbers)
without first extinguishing the same.
The law provides maximum fine of
$1,000, or imprisonment for two years,
or both, if the fire is set maliciously, and
fine of $1,000, or imprisonment for one
year, if the fire is due to carelessness. It
also provides that the money from these
lines goes to the school funds of the
county in which the offense is COM
mitted.
Commissioner W. A. Richards of the
general land Office has issued circulars
warning the public against calelessness,
inasmuch as many fires start from neg
lected camp fires, and makes the follow
ing requests:
l.. DO not build a larger fire than
you need.
2. DIS not build your fires IN dense
masses of pine leaves, duff and other
combustlble material, where the fire IS
sure to spread.
3. Do not build your fire against
large logs, especially rotten logs. where
1t requires much more work and time to
put the fire out than you are willing to
exdend, and where you are rarely quite
certain that the fire is really and CON-
pletely extinguished.
4. In windy weather and in danger
GUS places dig a fire hole and clear off a
place to secure your fire. You will save
wood and trouble.
5. Every camp fire should be COM
plete'y put out before leaving the camp.
6. Do not build fires to clear off land
and for other similar purposes without
informing others, so that they may
assist YOU.
