A typographical error in the commits
sioners' proceedings, as published last
week, made it appear that fractional
townships 81, 62 and 63 are included in
the proposed new town of Lutsen.
These are not fractional townships. The
use of the misleading word was the
typos error. ..,

And Cause Excitement in the Vii
~, 1age. 4 & .i.5,s. r :: 81
Considerable anxiety has been caused
by numerous small brush fires in this
section recently. The extremely dry
weather that has prevailed caused the
authorities and Others interested to be
extremely watchful, and this vigilance
has prevented the spread of number
Of incipient blazes that might have prov
en- disastrous to property interests of
community.
Wednesday afternoon a fire started In
the brush near J. d. O'Connor's place,
north of the school house which assum-
ed very threatening aspect for a while
and caused a good deal of excite
ment in town. Mr.. O'Connor had been
clearing garden patch near his house.
The weather being calm and antici-
pating, no danger he set fire to some
brush piles in the yard. After burning
slowly for some time the flames spread
to adjoining standing timber. An
alarm was given and force of over
thirty people, including many women
and boys. promptly respon 1ed to the
call. Livery teams hauled water while
this volunteer brigade fought hard for
several hours before the fire was finally
gotten under control.
The settlers on Good Harbor Hill had
desperate fight with an ugly forest
fire last Wednesday. The fire started
west of Cascade and crossing the creek
burned over a large tract. The fire had
gained much headway before it was dis
covered and threatened the settlements
at times during the afternoon. The SET
tiers were pretty we'll frightened and
fought desperately all afternoon, and
had the fire we'll under control when
night came on. Fortunately a dead
calm prevailed during the night, the
light rain completely quenching
the remnants of the fire.
Late Thursday night fire was re-
ported in the woods west of Rosebush
creek. A team. was sent out with crew
of men. They found the fire making
dangerous headway and call was made
for furthen help. Another team was
sent out with several additional voluE-
teers. By hard work the fire was stor.
ped at the creek, but not until it had
crept dangerously close to the bridge on
the county road. Quite large tract
was burned over. The only loss report
ed, aside from the damage; to timber,
was the camp and outfit of cruising
party that we're working in that vicinity
for Bates & Mcdonald. Everything in
the camp was destroyed, including pro-
visions, blankets, and personal belong
ings of the men. The party returned to
town yesterday morning for new outfit
and supplies.
The rainfall yesterday morning fes
lnoves all anxiety as to forest fires and
is relief to those especially who have
logs barked on the shore.
