Switch Crew Keeps Busy

The new switch engine in
charge of Jarv Cinclair is kept
busy all the time. Will Detield
is engineer, and Charles Caver
and Ed Reeve, brakemen. Up
on the arrival of all trains the
switching crew takes the train
and does all switching. Especi
ally does this benefit the Sisse-
ton crew, who heretofore were
compelled to do all their own
switching between the time they
arrived and departed. The work
used to crowd them pretty hard,
and they seldom had any time to
spare. Another switching crew
is run between Ortonville and
Summit.

Engine Sets Fire

Sparks from a Milwaukee en-
gine set fire to the grass near
the track, north of Guy McCol-
lum's, yesterday, and had the
blaze not been discovered as
soon as it was, q great deal of
damage would probably have
been the result, Mr.. Lang, who
was near by, saw the smoke and
ran to the place. 1t was with
some difficulty that he extin.
guished the flames. With the
heavy wind from the north it
would have driven the fire to-.
ward the city.

SUNDAY MORNING

At $50 a love feast was held,
with Mrs. w. H. Landis presid-
ing, and this was followed by a
most enjoyable aud helpful SER
vice which was held at the court
house, when Miss Parkes, a re.
turned missionary of the Philip
pine Islands told of conditions
and work among the F'iliplnos,
the necessity for missionary
work among the women Of the
island being a patriotic duty as
we'll as a matter of humanity to
the wOmalhood that now claims
protection under the Ameri-
can flag. The address was plain
statement of the moral and re-
liglous conditions of the island
by one who had been actively en-.
gagged in ameliorating those con.
dltions, and who was conversant
with the facts. The American
people need to be deeply inter
ested in this tion of missions
in their island possessions, as
upon the uplift that these people
get or fail to get will depend
the tranquility of the island and
their progress to self govern
ment.
An afternoon meeting was held
at the Congregational church in
the interest of the children, when
Miss Parkes told of the child
life IN the Philippines, and Miss
Hillman, the missionary from
Korea told of the children of
that country.
In the evening at the Congre.
gational church Miss Hillman
gave in a short and impassioned
address the story of q trip to
Korea and the conditions that
confront a missionary in the
Hermit kingdom. The welcome

eral Head Of Stock Pertsh-Hunl.
reds Of Tons Of Hay Destroyed.
The prairie fire west of this
city Wednesday did much dam-
age. AS near as can be learned
it started from a burning straw
stack near South Shore. The
wind helped it on its way ncrth.
Several hundred stacks of hay
and grain were burned.
One strip of land three miles
wide and from twelve to fifteen
miles long, west of Twin Brooks
was entirely burned off, all hay
and grain in stacks being do.
stroyed. Several granaries and
barns were burned betweea
Twin Brooks and Stockholm.
Mrs. Jacob Buste, living south.
west Of Twin Brooks, lost 3
granary containing $50 bushels
of rye. She had been aiding one
of the help who was plowing to
check the flames. They must
have got bewlldered, for as the
flames came near them, they
drove from the stubble into tho
grass. The horses were badly
burned, two OF them dying. She
also lost eleven stacks of grain.
Last evening Manager Moore, Of
the Farmers Phone Co., who had
been down near Stockholm, said
the fire was pretty we'll checked
near that place. Mr.. 3ergren
was called up by phone but hs
could not give any estimate Of
the loss or amount of property
damaged. Several head of stock
were burned. Yesterday the
wind had switched around to the
north, and the fire burned over
a considerable territory, back to
within three or or four miles 1T
South Shore. It is estimated
that the era covered by the fire
is anywhere from IS to 100
square miles. The loss cannot
be accurately estimated at this
time.
Mr.. Jones, who lives on what
is known as the John Storm
farm, lost all OF his hay except
one small stack, and two stacks
fax and four stacks of barley.
His son-in-law, Mr.. Stevens, lost
about Is tons of hay. All of the
hay on the Sarff farm, six or
seven large stacks, was destroy.
ed and it was with difficulty tho
buildings on the place were
saved.
A fire started northeast of tho
city Yesterday did considerable
damage. John Heffernan was
called up and he said consider.
able hay and grain in the stacks
had been burned.
A. M. Talcott lost about $50
tons of hay; Mr.. VanRay living
on the Jurgens farm lost all his
hay. Mr.. J. Kahl also lost quite
heavily. At one time $50 men
were fighting the fire and it was
with difficulty that it was ex-
tinguished. Had it got further
there is no telling what the re-
sulting damage would have BEEN.
Godfrey Stengel noticed tho
fire coming down the hills, to.
ward q pasture where he haa
some stock pastured. He drove
out to the pasture and got the
stock out. Fifteen minutes later
the grass in the pasture was o.
fire. He could not say as T.
what damage had been done il
that neighborhood. Tuesday 4
bad fire occurred in Kllbors
township, doing, quite q little
damage.
