THE SHIP OF THE DESERT.
Two Bactrian Camels at the New York

 It is surprising to find out that the camel originated in North America

At the same time that this miniature animal made it's home in our country, the tiny ancestral horse. but two feet, or six hands, high. roamed the Vest ern plains. Then, too. appeared the cat, the dog, and the rhinoceros. Later on. the camels then increased In size found their way into Asia. and across the Isthmus of Panama into South America. These camels of the past differ in many respects from the camels of today; food was abundant in this country. and therefore the an cient camel had no hump the bones of It's legs had not fused into the "can- non bone" of the modern camel: and l. had a more complete set of teeth than at the present day, the Unlicensed teeth having now been eliminated Later still in geological time the camel, as also the horse became extinct In North America.
 The Asiatic cameIs of modern times are the Bactrian camel and the drome- 1ary. The .Bactrian camels are distin- guishable from the fact that they have two humps. while t5e- dromedary has put one.

The meeting opened by the elec-

"A motion to allow the treasurer
$4,000 for his services for the past

A blaze of evident incendiary ori-
gin destroyed the large building

w. b. Shaver was first on the
ground, being closely followed by
Chief. of Police Sullivan, who was
driving on the Eveleth road at the
time, but their efforts to quell the
blaze were unavailing and by the
time the fire boys got on the
ground, after half mile run, it was
impossible to do anything toward
saving the structure.
Just as the fire started a man was
seen to jump from the window by
LePage boy, and Chief Sullivan, up
on his arrival on the scene, rescued
a partially burned coat from the
flames. -.
The building originally erected
by the Mesaba Land Improvement

passed into the hands of David
