Duluth, MINI, Sept. s. Grand
Marias, on the north shore, is in the
clutches of the fire demon. The peo-
pie are in worse straits than the
range people, IN that they have no
place to fee to-. Enormous forest
fires are raging within a mile Of the
town. There is no avenue of escape.
Al. j. Smith, county attorney Of
Hennepin county, who has been
camping beyond Grand Marias with
Judge Purdy and Judge Moves, also

his camp and with Iisaparty had to
escape to Grand Marias in a launch.

the open close to the lake shore. Mr.
Smith says that an east wind will
bring on the danger for Grand Marais

Sioux Falls, s. D., Sept. S.-W. D.
Boyce, the millionaire publisher of
Chicago, was granted decree Of di-
vorce two weeks ago in this state.
The case was heard before Judge
Marquis of WATERFOWL circuit, and
was contested.
Mr.. Boyce's testimony shows that
in 1888 he and his wife were pioneers
in eastern North Dakota, where he
was in the newspaper business at
Lisbon, Ransom county. After leay-
ing the state he obtained employment
on a Chicago paper and after time
began buying newspapers that since
have made him wealthy.
His only charge against his wife
was that she loved money more than
him, requiring the building Of a man
sion In Chicago, trips to Europe, and
costly jewels. 5.3
Friends in Fargo who know some
thing about the trouble between MI.
and Mrs. Boyce say the trouble has
been brewing for some time and that
there is "a woman in the case" Mrs.
Royce is referred to as a most charm
ing woman in every particular. It
lis said in the decree of settlement
that the sssssatial residence at the cor
ner of WhiteWood avenue and Hamp-
den street, Chicago, valued at $780,
600, is decided to Mrs. Boyce besides
she is to have an annuity Of $50, 900,
also the business block down town,
the site of which is valued at $467,-
$40 and the building $4,000, has
been transferred to a Chicago bank,
as trustees for the benefit Of Mrs.
Boyce and her two daughters

Town Burns

Duluth, Mimi, Sept. S.-Hibbing,
the largest and most prosperous town
on the Mesaba range is still threat
ened with danger by fire. Despite
the fact the city is fairly well pro-
tected by clearings and large open
pit mines, the flames have been get
ting closer all the time and every
place of business in town is closed
and the men are all out fighting the
flames.
Fire is getting dangerously close
and the situation looks serious is
1.-The opening sentence of a telegram
received from J. W. Kritter, superin-
tendent of the Mesaba road at the
main Office Of the road at $3.50 this
afternoon. The rest of the telegram
follows:
"The fire comes very near the G.
N. spur on this side of Brooklyn,
suburb of Hibbing, and the wind is
blowing in our direction, but not so
hard as an hour ago.
"The city has all the available hose
ing fire. They have established a
pipe line and installed three pumps.
The sky is clearing of smoke some
what now, but we are threatened on
the north side as well.
'Ten Oliver engines just passed
with men going to fight the fire.
Schools are closed; business houses
are closed and have sent their men
to fight fire. All saloons are closed''
The Duluth fire department says
it received telegram from the fire
department at Hibbing asking that
an engine and all the hose that can
be spared be shipped to them by a
i special train at once. Chief Black,
! with a number of men and the en-
CINE left Duluth shortly after
O'Clock for the scene of the fire.
The Mesaba road, realizing the
danger of the inhabitants of the
range, has trains in waiting at Hib-
bling to take the people away from
the scene of danger.
Unless the wind changes, Coleraine
and Bovey will be safe from fire for
the present, at least. According to
the last advices from those towns,
the situation looked serious, but the
wind is now blowing the fire in an
opposite direction from the towns.
Schools and business houses are all
closed and everyone is out fighting
fires or preparing to vacate their
homes on a moments notice.
Fought All Day.
Fighting desperately against the
wind driven forest fires that threat
ened momentarily to add six more
range towns to the blackened ruins
of Chisholm and SNOWFALL, practi-
cally the entire male population of
the Mesaba region composed a self
constituted fire brigade that strug-
gled fiercely all day today and late
into the night to save their homes
and property. After raging furiously
all the afternoon the flames died
