Freight Cars Burn.

Eleven Northern Pacific freight
cars were burned Thursday night,
at about nine O'Clock, at the "Y"
east Of town.
The side tracks at the "Y" were
filled with freight cars, and at about
the hour named nearby resident
noticed one of the box cars in flames.
Farmers and others in the vicinity
at once came to the assistance, and
by hard work saved many cars that
would otherwise have been de-
stroyed. AS it was, eleven cars,
eight fats and three box cars, the
latter loaded with wood, were de-
stroyed, the loss to the company be-
ing about $500 per car.
1t is supposed that the fire was
started by tramps who were using
the freight yards for hotel purposes,
and started fire to take the chill
off the night air, aud to cook be-
lated oyster can supper.

council held Thursday evening, the
formal tender of the deeds to the
city park property, purchased by
popular subscription, was made, the
deeds now being in the hands of the
proper city authorities.
The presentation of the deed of
gift was made by Mrs. c. A. Barry,
of the general committee. In hand
ing over the documents, Mrs. Barry
addressed the council, giving a con-
else history of the origin and pro-
gress of the city park movement
from its inception to the present.
For years it had been the dream
of many of our citizens to some day
convert the DAVIS tract, east of town,
into city park where all would be
wecome, and all would feel the
sense OF proprietorship. About
year ago committee from the Fort
nightly club originated the move
ment that has now been brought to
such a successful termination. A
general committee, composed of
nine ladies', representatives of the
Fortnightly Club, the History Club,
and of the city, was appointed, com
posed of Mesdames c. A. Barry, c.
O. Morrell, Alfred Windus, w. c..
M. Hays, J. A. Hungate, A. B.
Baker, H. c. Mason, H. E. Pal
merton and Matte Anderson. These
ladies, with a citizens committee,
consisting of Messrs. Mayor Staley,
Gaddis, Baker, True, Keeney,
Davis, Burgan, Dumas, Elliott and
Piper, set actively at work, and
soon raised, by popular subscription,
the 5000 necessary for the purchase
of the eleven acre DAVIS tract. The
citizens of the city took most kindly
and enthusiastically to the move
ment, the individual subscriptions
ranging from 81 to $40. In addi-
ton to these individual subscrip-
tions, the Fortnightly Club added
some $3.50; the G. A. R. $40, and
the-Pullman Club $II.5o.
7 In addition to the the DAVIS tract,
fourteen lots lying alongside were
later purchased, ten lots at tax sale
at $50, and four lots of Joe Farms
worth for $50, making the total
property decided to the city fourteen
acres, the formal presentation of the
deeds having been delayed by reason
of the negotiations for the latter
property, although the ownership
of the DAVIS tract has been vested in
the city for some months.
The deeds are made to the city
without reservation, except that the
property shall be used only for the
purpose of a public park, and that
liquor shall not be sold upon the
premises. In case it should cease
to be used as a park, it will revert
to the original owners. In addition
to the fourteen acres, title to which
is now in the city, the old paper
mill tract of four acres, with its
flowing artesion well, can be added,
through the public spirit of the
trustees, by the payment of about
$50 back taxes. This will give
tract of eighteen acres, admirably
situated for the building of public
park, part Of it being already in
grove, and which will require but
small outlay to beautify and main
tain.
The first move toward the shap-
ing of the property must of course
be the Strengthening and opening of
the river channel, which cuts
through it, but this can be done. in

The third question:; "Whcn you

Folks reply was: 81 have never
said they were corrupt. Every
party must have an organization.
