PLENTY OF FRUIT
IN THE MARKETS

It is reported by retail dealers OF
foodstuffs in general that prices are
comparatively lower than they were
last year, and that an economical
housewife can provide for her table at
little cost Vegetables are abundant,
and farmers declare that the season is
an exceptionally good one. The cool
spell Of last week and the refreshing
rains did much toward improving the
crops.
This year has been a good one as far
as canteloupes are concerned. and
plenty of them are yet to be had In
the retail markets good, firm cante-
loupes can be purchased for so cents
to 81 a dozen. Most of them are COM
ing from New Jersey, while not a few
are being shipped from Delaware.
Watermelons are plentiful. The best
melons are sold to the consumer at
from 20 TO As cents apiece. The sup
ply Of peaches is not quite up to the
standard OF last season, but this is at
tributed to the heat and lack OF rain.
Peaches are coming now from down
the State but the choice fruit is yet
to be shipped.

VILLAGE
BURNED BY THE
FOREST FIRE

VANCOUVER. B. c.. Aug 5-The latest
advices from the scene Of the fire disaster
in the Crows Nest Pass region say that
the town Of Michel, which escaped the
first rush Of the flames. is now burning
and that by nightfar it will be destroyed
as completely as was Fernie.
For three days the people Of Michel
have fought for their lives and homes,
but at dusk yesterday the place. the sec
ond in size Of the devastated district
started to burn. Nothing can save it.
From the light eastern breeze the wind
turned to a gale from the west at 8
O'Clock in the afternoon and the town
was doomed. The blaze came sweeping
down the hill. At the edge Of the town
100000 feet Of mine timber, owned by the
coal company, caught fire, and four load
ed railroad cars standing on a side track
were consumed. Two Canadian Pacific To-
comotives were hitched to a train TO
carry the fire fighters away to safety. BY
the time the train left for the west the
fire was spreading all over the yards.
The train got only half mile on its
Journey when It encountered a wall Of
flames. There was danger Of its being
hemmed In and being burned with every
body aboard. so the locomotives were re-
versed and run back with all speed.
BY the time the train returned all the
houses on the fiat district back Of the
Great Northern depot were burning and
the main town seemed likely to catch at
any moment. At 5 O'Clock one newspaper
man and the telegrapher stilt stuck by the
telegraph instrument The last message
the newspaper man sent was:
Many houses are burning. Trains can
not get west OF here. Railway service
west OF this town will be blocked in
definitely. To the east the line is clear.
VIII try to reach Crows Nest before
morning and forward news from there"
