clan, reports that there are at

and watched for developments.
All of the patients are in the

ling these cases, othat there can
be no possible chance of con-
tagion. Mostof the cases are
found in lum ber camps north of
Bemidji. The sufferers with the
disease are driven overland to
the pest house, and speedily
taken care of. No quarantine of
the patient is allowed, out be is
taken at once to the pest house,
and the camp where found is
quarantined the customary time,
in order to prevent the spread
of the disease. .Is-.
DR.. Blakeslee returned this
morning from a trip seven miles
west of Shocks Spur, where he
went to investigate an alleged
case of smallpox.

Trapped a Brush Wolf.

A brush wolf was brought to
the city this morning by Fred
Ballou, who will receive the $3.50
bounty allowed by the state for
the destruction of the "var.
mints." -:
Mr.. Ballou is in the employ of
W. A. Cassler, and while doing
his customary duties also en-
cages in trapping. he had sew.
eral traps set on Grass lake,
about three miles west of Be.
midi, and when he visited the
traps this morning he found a
brush wolf fastened in one of
them. The animal was not dead
and Ballou dispatched it with a
club.
AS has been the case for sew
eral winters past, there are large
mum bers of wolves in this vicin.
ity. The practice of putting out
poison with which to kill them
should be discouraged, as there
is no telling whether a valuable
dog or other domestic animal
might not eat the stuff intended
for wolves.

Biq Cut Near Town.

Sam Marin, the agricu lturist
and sawmill operator, has made
a contract to do some logging for
the Crookston Lum ber company.
He will cut the pine on the Je, 8
Hanson place, about one mile
east of Eymore. It is estimated
that the pine will scale about
100000 feet. Mr.. Marin will
land the logs on Lake Bemidji, a
short distance above the: mill,
which will give him a haul of
only a short distance over a mile.
The timber stands nicely, and
with the short haul, the job will
be a desirable one to handle.
Mr.. Marin began his. prelimin-
ary work today and expects to
rush the cutting from now on
until completed. .

RESORT AT BIG FALLS IS
BURNED TO THE GROUND
Fire Supposed to Be Of Incendiary Or.
igin...Loss Placed at
=. $1,000.

Big Falls, Dec. 19.-(Special to
the Pioneer "A building belong
ing to Eugene MARQUES was total
ly destroyed by fire last night, at
1915 o'clock shortly after the
arrival of the M. & l.. passenger
train from the south. FL .
The building was occupied by
Joseph Wise, and was supposed
to be a sporting resort. There
was one part of the building, on
the second floor, that was unused,
and the fire started in that por.
tion. The flames had gained
such headway when discovered
that it was impossible to check
them, and the location of the re-
sort was such that the fire de-
partment was unable to get the
fire engine to the scene, and the
structure was burned to the
ground without any possible
chance of extinguishing the
flames. The fire ragged so fiercely
that everything in the place, ex-
cept the piano and a few person
al effects of the occupants, was
consumed. The inmates of the
resort barely made their escape
from the burning building, most
of them running out into the
snow but scantily attired, with
no shoes on. H.:
The origin of the fire was un-
dou btedly incendiary, as a
hauger-on about the place had
threatened. several times to set
fire to the house. ..s,. -.
The building was covered with
Sheet-lrOn and finished inside ana
out. 1t is estimated that the
loss on the building and contents
was 1000. It is not known
whether. any insurance was
carried on either the building or
the contents. -.

COUNCIL REJECTS THE NEW
600 FEET OF FIRE HOSE.
Careful Inspection Shows Goods Shipped
Much inferior to Sample
Il Shown.

At the meeting of the city
council held Monday evening,
not much business of Importance
was transacted. ~.
The mostimportant action was
the rejection of 600 feet of fire
hose, shipped here recently by
the Eureka Fire Hose company,
through their Minneapolis agent,
which was contracted, for with
the company as the successful
bidder at a meeting of the coun.
Gil held for the purpose of award
ing a contract for the hose.
Last Saturday the hose was
given a test as to the amount of
water pressure it would stand.
The test was apparently salts
factory. Alderman Matt Meyer
of the fire committee was, how.
ever, determined that the hose
should be exactly as the sample
in every particular, and when
the council met he suggested
that coupling be cut off the
hose and foot of the hose com
pared with the sample. Accord.
ing to the examination, the hose
was said to be inferior in many
ways and the council rejected the
entire 600 feet: The hose re.
mains here, subject to the order
Of the Eureka company.

conduct of employment Offices in
the city was given it's second
reading. ~ .-*
The city payroll was allowed,
in order. that the "boys'' may
have Xmas money.

and the council adjourned.
