Hot Time Of 1t.

The president and several OF the
smaller fry of the Canadian Northern
railway, who were accompanied by
their wives, have been "doing" the
cities and Tuesday evening they had
their private car attached to No. 7, the
Winnipeg limited which leaves ST.
Paul at $40 p. m. and goes through
here at 4:25. According to the best in
formation obtainable, the private car
was heated with an independent heat
Ing plant operated by the means of
stove. Somewhere between here and
ST. Paul the porter built up a roaring
fire and just beyond Fergus Falls he
discovered that he had no water in his
tank or pipes. Fearful of the damage
a hot fire would do the plant when Ges-
titute of water, he started to rake the
burning Goals onto the galvanized iron
such that it set fire to the floor under
the stove and when the train came
rushing into the yards here it was seen
hat the under of the car was
afame. An alarm was turned in and
the car was switched onto the house
tracks. The local fire department
failed to hear the alarm and an effort
was made to get the shop hose into
action but unfortunately the pump used
at that point was not in working order
and it is said the manner in which the
members of the G. N. party hustled to
keep their domlcile from burning
would have done credit to any organ
lied crew of fire fighters.
One plan after another was tried
without success and finally the car was
run onto the main line opposite the
power house and q line of hose run
from there. The fire was finally ex
tinguished but not before the greater
part of the floor had been destroyed
and also several Of the berth partitions
in tie interior. So far as the car be-
ing habitable was concerned, the fire
h I'd done it's work we'll and the officials
rode in Mr.. Hills cars the rest of the

Catching Frogs.

A party from st. Paul has caught
and shipped this, winter Is, 900 dozen
OF frogs from Westport lake. His
method OF catching the frogs, was, by
extending piece of canvas into the
marsh on either side of the outlet of
the lake, and about ten or fifteen feet
apart he placed an open box into the
ground just at the lower edge of the
canvas. The frogs would jump along
the outside Of the canvas, and fall into
the boxes, they were gathered up and
the small ones thrown back into the
outlet, the large ones taken to a place,
built for the purpose, and feed until
ready for the market.

it has finished burning plunge the bot
