Sea OF Flames
Swept Mel can Co

AS the result Of a prairie fire,
which started on the Thompson
farm. forty-five miles southwest
of Minot, on Friday afternoon,
thousands OF dollars worth of
property was destroyed, one man
rs known to have been fatally
burned. scores Of families lost
their all and much live stock was
lost. The fire swept a path from
the point of origin, directly
through Mclean county, about a
mile wide, and was not checked
until it reached the northern
part Of Burleigh county, leaving
death and destruction in its
wake. The wind was blowing
a velocity Of about forty miles
an hour and in less than two
hours, fire had travelled a dis
tance of eighty seven miles.
William Flynn, whose farm adj
joins the Thompson farm on the
south, was caught in the flames,
while working in a field, and
was so badly burned that it is
believed he will die. He was
I taken to the hospital at Bismarck
for treatment.
The fire caught in the hay with
which the Thompson stable was
covered, and when first seen,
had consumed the barn, with
three head of cattle, three horses
and a large quantity Of machin-
cry, and had burned for a dis
Gance of seven or eight miles.
The foll3wjng graphic descrip-
ton of the starting of the flames
is given by one of the Thomp-
sons:
Y @'We had just returned from
the fields on Friday for a noon
lunch" said William. 1.-The
team had been Embarrassed and
placed in the barn and fed. Up
on entering the house we kindled
a fire. Five minutes after the
fire was lighted in the cook
stove | stepped outside to pro
cure additional fuel. The barn
which a few minutes before had
stood in the rear of the house,
sheltering three head of cattle
and three horses, was gone. In
it's stead was a smoldering heap
of ashes and the roasted carcas
ses of all Of our live stock. Our
wagons, harness, farm machiE-
cry, hay and other supplies had
been consumed. Looking to the
southeast, now fully ten miles
distant from me on the wonder
full prairie distances, | saw what
appeared to be fast receding,
rolling sea of fire.

500 and q. IN.
In Lively Scrap

A railroad correspondent 81
Fargo says:
| 1t is given out that the Aneta
branch Of the Great Northern
Twill be extended and will tap the
main line at Granville.
That would indicate the truth
fulness Of current rumor that the
Great Northern road intends to
do battle with the 500 in very
Earnest this year.
The 500 extension from Thief
River Falls, Mimi. to Kenmare,
is a line exactly parallel to the
Great Northern main line more
than half way across the state
lying between that line of ROAD
and the boundary line and tap
ping a very productive country.
All through this section of the
state the jim Hill road has feed
ers for it's main line and it is
said that these will be extended
| to the boundary to turn as much
as possible Of that trade onto
his rails.
Then there is the 100 mile ex.
tension from Rugby to the Mis-
souri, River which crosses the
main line Of the 500 and tapping
the territory supplied by the
Underwood and Washburn
branch of the 500 from this city.
Not content with this it is saio
that Aneta and Granville will be
connected by Great Northern
rails.
This looks like a very deter
mined move on the part of the
latter road to do it's best in the
way If detracting from Soc
traffic. AS is known, the two
roads enter the state in Richland
county but a few miles apart,
each being a main line, the 500
running in a northwestly direc-
ton through Hankinson, Valley
City, Darlington, Minot and
Portal. The Great Northern
enters the state at Wahpetoll and
it's main line is via Cas- elton n
Larimore to the main trunk line
east and west.
Out of Casselton, however, is
a branch about sixty-eight miles
in length to Aneta.
This makes a line almost par.
al,el with the 500. Then the
Sherwood and Granville brrnch
north of the main line is another
line that is about parallel with
the 500 main line so it will be
seen that when the towns of
Aneta and Granville are con-
nected, that the Great North
ern will have a road clear
through the state running par
allel to the 500 line and at no
place fifty miles from it.
| If last summers reports, to
the effect that the Great North
ern would build from Minot to
Sioux City along the east bank
of the Missouri, prove true the
500 will indeed be pretty vel!
hemmed in on all sides.

Aneta Line
Seems Possible

The Great Northern surveyors
who ran the preliminary survey
from this point to Aneta, have
returned, and Monday morning
began work on the second survey
over the same route. They are
now camped near the Roberts
farm. The engineer in charge
is very much pleased with the
country through which the survey
passes. One of the corps stated
to a gentleman of this city that
there would be additional roads
here by next fall. The great
purpose of the new line, if it is
built, will be to relieve the con-
gesred condition of the main
dine between Rugby and Lari-
more. The traffic west Of Rugby
lis about as heavy as can be
handled over the main line, and
when the freight east Of that
point is added, it simply makes
handling with dispatch impossi-
BILE. The line from here to
Aneta would permit the sending
of the traffic from west Of here
and from this point including
the freight delivered by the
Farmers road, which is one Of
the Great Northern's heaviest
feeders, over that line. leaving
the main line to handle the traffic
east Of this city to Larimore. A
railroad man who has given the
matter careful onsideration,
stated that it would be necessary
for the Great Northern to build
the proposed line to Aneta OF
double back the main line be-
fWeen.D Devils Lake and Larimore.
AS the latter would not tap new
country and therefore become .
traffic getter, the building Of the
Aneta line seems the feasible
project.

Hazards Of the Dress Suit
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.


A social peril has been disclosed by the
discussion In New York newspaper of an
issue which at first sight appears to be
merely one Of proper expenditure In dress
1t starts with the question whether a young
man earning salary of SIS per week
should be expected to provide himself with
a dress suit for social functions. To the
careless consideration this would seem to
involve no more than the factor whether
ing quick-lunch counters and hall bed
rooms can accumulate enough out of his
SIS weekly to pay for his dress suit. But a
foresighted philosopher sees much more
than that in it. Not that he condemns the
spiketail per Sc. 1t is the consequential
damages that follow the tails that evoke
the warning.
The dress suit necessitates dress shirts,
studs more less Respondent patent
leather shoes and corresponding hat. The
young man furnished forth in this jubilant
raiment must make his investment active
by using It, Taking his best girl to the
theater he will find the plebeian street car
and the gallery wholly beneath his garb.

verbal aspect of 80 cents Thence debt, an
effort to make good by striving with the
ponies. and a final robbing of the till or
cooking of accounts come In the reckless
progress. Thus the innocent-lookfng dress
suit appears as the first act in the drama
whose finale is in JAIL where the dress suit
will be completely dead investment.
This surrounds the sartorial topic with
scmber significance. 1t shows at least that
the SIS young man who aspires to distinc-
lively evening clothes must secure one

The Conscience Fund.
From the Boston Transcript.

FROM the Boston transcript.
The newspapers are in error In describing
the $4,000 recently received at the treas
ury on account of conscience as the largest
contribution of this kind ever made. The
high-water mark was a receipt of 1000
which was transmitted by an English
clergyman, who told of a sinner that had
come under his influence, and repented of
certain old-time frauds on the customs laws
of the United States, desired to make resti-
tuition. If this clergyman could have the
ear of all incoming tourists on the ocean
steamships and his ministrations proved
equally effective, there would be no immedi-
ate need of a tax on coffee
During the ninety-four years in which
these contributions have been separately
tabulated, they amount to about a third of
a million dollars. They are entered among
the miscellaneous receipts, and are applied
to current expenses, like any other moneys
of the treasury. The newspapers have I'M
Willingly misrepresented the conscience
fund by placing greater emphasis on the
messages of eccentric people until the inn
preston has become general that only
crankS are in this way conScientiouSly
moved. Such is not the case. An eXamna-
ton Of the letters on file at the treasury
would convince anybody that most of the
contributors are sincerely repentant of some
fraud on the government, and take the only
practical way of showing the genuineness
of their regret. Barely does any money
come without an explanatory letter and il
is unusual to have any name signed. Uncle
Sam makes formal acknowledgment of all
receipts from this source in the Washing
ton newspapers. In fact, any money thus
received is Immediately posted on bule-
tin in the secretary's office, so that all
Corners may take note of 1t.
Some of the returns seem trifing. One
poor fellow makes restitution for two loads
of wood, which he had stolen from gov

stole steal no more" The religious ele-
ment is seldom absent from these letters.

FISHING LINES.
The Very Finest Are Those Formed
From Silkworm Gut.

From the London Telegraph.
Silkworm gut forms the best line for
hshing purposes, partly on account of it's
great tenacity and partly because it is so
transparent. Every year sufficient num-
Der of Spanish silkworm grubs are select
ed for this purpose. After they have eaten
enough mulberry leaves and before they
begin to spin they are thrown into vinegar
for several hours Each insect is killed
and the substance which the grub in the
natural course would have spun into q CO.
coon is forcibly drawn from the dead
worm into much thicker and shorter
silken thread.
The threads are then placed in pure wa
ter for about four hours and afterward
dipped for ten minutes in a solution of
soft soap. The fine outer skin is thus
loosened so that the workman can remove
Ii with his hands. The threads must be
dried in a shady place, and are often
bleaehed with sulphur vapor until they ac-
Quire the bright appearance of spun glass.

HORSE wHIsPERERs.
Secret Methods That Were Used by
Irish Animal Trainers.
From the Golden Penny.

From the Golden fenny.
Ireland, as well as the far north of Scot
land. had--possibly still has-its horse
whisperers," though the "brotherings'
which give such permanence and geniality
to the Scottish ''plowman's whisper" never
seem to have existed in the sister island.
Irish "whisperers'' have been lonely men.
whose secret has generally died with them.
The most famous "whisperer'' of modern
times was James Sullivan of Dunhallow.
No horse was ever brought to Sullivan
which he did not permanently tame. Or
dinarily FESTIVE animals he would master
in few minutes. For exceptionally vicious
horses he took about half an hour. during
which time he shut the stable door and
forbade any one to open 1t till he gave the
signal. When the door was opened the
horse was still lying down and Sullivan. by
his side. playing with him as child does
with a puppy. There was no tying up OF
the foreleg or any other visible means or
coercion How his ascendancy was OBJ
tanned no one could tell.
A successor of Sullivan named O'Hara
became almost equally famous, and was
often urged to explain what was the Sc
cret of his influence. But O'Hara treated
his questioners Samson did the Phil
istines, deluding them with various and UNI
satisfactory answers. AT one time, for in
stance. he said the secret lay in rocking
the horse-putting one hand firmly on his
crupper. and with the other grasping his
shoulder and then swaying him to and fro,
gently at first and gradually increasing the
motion till you throw him. At another time
he protested that his plan was to bite the
animals ear. Both these are well known
jockey tricks. The most stubborn horse,
they say, will be wholly subdued by being
thrown twice or thrice, and if you can get
a vicious horses between your teeth
and bite hard you his master and he
your submissive slave from that time for
ward. AS to the idea that the 'whisperer'
works by kindness. it stands to reason that
that method supposes the entire education
of the animal to be in your hands. If you
have only half hour to do your work In,
you must show overmastering power as
well as kindly feelings. A horse whose
temper has been spoiled by chronic bad
treatment looks on all men alike as tyrants
and DULLES.

Progress Of True Temperance.
ou tho r.afovette dnal Courier.

From the Lafayette ind) Courier
Governor Hanly's refusal to appoint any
man to office who is accustomed to the use
of liquor has caused widespread comment
that was hardly expected. The governors
resolve is generally accepted as another evil
dence of the progress being made by the
cause of true temperance Many of the
criticisms come from sources that do not
eternalIy condemn the man that drinks in
moderation, but they acknowledge the
growing tendency to give preference to
those who do not The railroads have fixed
a high standard on this question of drink,
and large corporations are following the
example If Mr.. Hanly's policy predicts
that political offices are to be governed by
the same law of selection the chances of
the drinking man are fast disappearing.
Persons who regard the drink question as
one Of the national evils grow discouraged
at times at the seeming Indifference to their
warnings. But when the great employers
