from Burning Room. "

DULUTH, MINN.-Fire destroyed the home Of
Mrs. Nellie Nelson Of Eveleth, the mother of
triplets about years of age, and she and
they had a narrow escape from death in the
flames. Mrs. Nelson deserted by her hus-
band more than year ago. She and the babies

BURNS, while severe not dangerous.

Dowling Of Eveleth last winter introduced
Dill providing for an appropriation for her be-
cause she was the mother of triplets and hel
husband had deserted her. ...+
Mr.. and Mrs. Clinton Markell, 325 East Sec
