IN GREAT FOREST FIRES OF

-Twenty-three Persons Lost Their
Lives on In-Fated Relief Train.

Dispatches from Alpena, Mich. indi
cate that the number of deaths in m,
forest fires of Presque Isle and Alpenl
counties last Friday, Saturday and Sun
day will surely exceed 40. In the vi
entity of Metz, Bolton and Posen tn,
hres have burned sufficiently to leav,

camping with comparative safety in tn,

1t is now estimated that % persons
lost their lives in the destruction of the
Inflated Metz relief train that went tc
the rescue of refugees of forest fires
1t is doubtful, however, if the names OF
all will ever be known.
Dispatches from many points in III

in some places has passed and in Others
it is greater than ever.

Hundreds of Men Fight Fire.
Marion, Ohio, Oct. 1s.-With hand

cry, several hundred men are almost in
a state of collapse in their efforts t
prevent the flames which are sweeping

timber land from destroying the town
of Larue. Unless there is a shift in the
wind their efforts will be in vain. Man

The fire started from sparks from a
locomotive and the district being in a
condition the farmers were un
able to check the blaze. In the hope of
checking the flames wide burrows were
around Larue and it is believed
the flames will not cross them.
Providing for the Homeless.
Detroit, Oct. 1s.-Measures of relief
for the stricken people in Presque Isle
and Cheboygan counties are already
under way. Hundreds are homeless and
many have not sufficient clothing. A

suffering. A theater at Alpena was
open to receive contributions
for the refugees. The freswept district

Causes for Doubt.

The World gives five causes LEADING
TO the belief that the contest for tbo
presidency is in doubt. They are;
The injection into the campaign in
some Of the western states of an in.
s'dious and disturbing religious factor
which IS working against the republic
an candidate.
The tendency Of the labor vote to
break away from the control of all
parties, as illustrated in the surprising
spread Of the socialist cause. both in
the east and the west.
1.-The inability of both the republican
and democratic parties to intelligeptlv
approximate the distribution Of the
vote to be cast by az army Of unem-
ployed-estimated in round numbers at
l,4OO, 900 voters.
1.-THE inability of both the republican
and democratic managers to anticipate
the distribution of the colored vote in
states where it has always been classi.
fed as republican.
"ThC complete absence of an issue Of
general value or vote-getting potency
to either side"
The World goes on to show that Mr..
Taft must carry New York state, the
choicest of the doubtful states, to win
by a margin of two votes. If he ear,
ries it, his election is assured. Bryan
win must carry New York, Ohio and
Maryland or Nebraska or West Vir-
ghia, which viii give him 248 votes, or
six more than is necessary to elect him.
If he carries New York, Indiana, West
Virginia and Nebraska or Maryland,
and yet loses Ohio, he may still be
by six votes. Under any COM
he must carry New York to
win.

Mayor of Waitsburg Here.

Mayor Breeze of Waitsburg was in
town this week for the purpose Of look
i2g at the paving and macadam work
done on the streets OF Colfax. The
Waitsburg mayor was much pleased with
what he saw, the cement curbing follow
ing almost the entire length of Main
street particularly appealing to him.
Rosalia, copying after COlfax, adopted
this feature. Waitsburg will probably
do the same In the last number of the
Times of that burg the editor grows en-
ergetic in speaking OF their principal
street. He says: 1T now looks as
though the city council and business men
in general are thoroughly in earnest
about improving the condition of our
main street. The street will be macad-
amized or paved in the business section
at least. Macadamizing has been
talked Of considerably, but a number Of
the largest property owners along the
business section are in favor of some
kind Of paving"

WINTER SCHOOL FOR
FARMERS At PULLMAN
Farm Dairying Will Be Inter
estIng Feature of Course.
Lectures Will Include Breeding Up
the Dairy Herd, Care of the Herd
Planning and Arranging of Dairy
Stables, Feeding the Herd, Etc.

State College, Pullman, Dec. 23.-A
new course in farm dairying" has been
| added to the Winter School for Farmers
which will be held at the State College
| during the ten weeks following January
.. This department of instruction, 1.-THE
dairy section" as it is termed by the ex-
pertinent station lecturers, is an entirely
new feature of the winter school, the
courses Tor which have recently been ar
ranged by George Severance, professor of
agriculture at the college, and Ira p.
whitney, instructor in dairying
1.-The present tendency is towards the
concentrating of the manufacture of
| dairy products in the hands of n COM
paratively few large companies" says
Professor Severance. &" Therefore. the
most important problem for the college
is to give instruction in farm dairying.
For every young man who goes into
creamery work there will be fifty who
will take up the task Of producing milk.
At the station we believe, therefore, that
short farm dairying course is needed.
1t will begin January 5 and continue for
ten weeks"
Subjects included in the lectures will be-:
Breeding up the dairy herd; care of the
herd; planning and arranging dairy
| stables; feeding the herd; general man
agement and care of milk from the time
it is drawn from the COW until it is ready
for the market in some one or more of
it's manufactured forms; use of the cream
separator, including comparison OF diff
terant makes, churning, temperature g
and methods of working butter; the
making Of cottage and chedar chess !;
preparation OF ice cream and other ices

chemistry and bacteriology to enable a
student to understand the various

KICKED BY HORSES.
Henry Mohr, Dusty Farmer, Pays
Dearly for His Fun.

Henry Mohr, native of the czar's
domains and engaged in farming near
Dusty, is in st. Ignatius hospital in
badly battered condition. 1t seems that
Mohr left Endicott Monday morning for
his home and about the noon hour was
discovered near Wilcox wedged in be-
tween the bed OF the wagon and the
front wheel MOhr had evidently gone
to sleep and fallen out of the wagon as
found. Allen Benner, who made the dis
covery, extracted the befuddled Mohr,
and thinking he was not seriously in
iured left him TO pursue his journey
alone. Later in the day MOhr was dis
covered in a field covered with blood,
his horses having evidently dragged and
kicked him. The horses had kicked
themselves loose from the wagon and
were mixed up in a barbed wire fence.
MOhr was too full of booze to get killed
or to tell how he received his injuries
He was taken to Wilcox and two physi-
clans from COlfax summoned to dress
his wounds. 1t was found that his fore
head was cut and crosscut, seemingly
every artery and vein being cut to the
bone. The left lip Of the nOstril was
torn out and he presented a terribly
battered appearance. Tuesday morning
he was brought to st. Ignatius hospital,
when the further discovery was made
that his left ankle was broken.
Mohr at this writing is resting easily,
and if nothing unforeseen occurs will
probably pull through all right. He is
about so years of age.
