FIRE Loss ENORMOUS.
One-third Of the City Of Chelsea,
Mass, Is Destroyed.
THOUSANDS ARE HOMELESS
Two Lives Known to Have Been Lost
and More Than Fifty Persons
Are Injured.

Boston, April 13.-An apparently in
significant fire, which started among
rags on a dump in the city of Chelsea,
was famed by a northwest gale into
confagration which obliterated
nearly one-third of the city. Five
hundred dwelling houses and public
buildings were destroyed, 1,5OO fami-
Hes were driven from their habita-
tions, and 10000 people made home
less. Two lives are known to have
been lost and ut was also reported
that two other persons had perished,
one, a woman, having Shot herself in
a frenzy over her inability to save her
property. From fifty to one hundred
were injured. Accurate estimate of
the loss is impos sIble. The city so
licitor estimates it at nearly Sic, ,0O0,-
900. The fire, which was the worst
FGreater Boston has known in many
years, ragged before a 45-mile gale for
more than twelve hours, defying the
utmost efforts of the combined fire de-
partmentS of Chelsea and several
nearby cities and a large detachment
of Boston fremen and apparatus.
The fire area, which was in the form
of an elipse, a mile and half long
and half mile wide at it's broadest
part, extended diagonally across the
city from "a point near the boundary
between Everett and Chelsea to the
waters Of Chelsea creek 1t was use
less for the firemen to attempt to
check the onrus hing flames ghefore the
gale, and their main efforts were to
prevent a spread Of the fire on either
side. Their last stand was taken at
Chelsea Square, and for hours "a doubt
Yul battle was waSed. Finally word
was passed that the firemen were win
ming and wIth'renewed energy the con-
keSt iwas pressed. Later oflcial an.
!nouncement was made by Chief III. A
Spencer that the fire was under CON
;trol
The great majority of the buildings
were Of wood and were completely
but structures of odher ma
;terial were almost as quickly and
thoroughly incinerated by the fierce
ness Of the blaze.
All the banks, more than three
quarters of the churches, half sof the
business blocks, and nearly all the
schoolhouses were wiped out. One
hospital and a day nursery were de-
'stroyed. In the turmoil many Of the
sick and infirm found difficulty in OBJ
tanning assistance and several of them
had marrow escapes.

strength in the Fifth congressional

mering and while they talked of
strength in the Seventh and Ninth,
yet every county in both districts that
had reported was for Taft.

sTARvEs HIMSELF TO DEATH
st. Paul Man Dies in Attempt to Fast
Forty Days.

X .
Knute Ohnstead is dead at st.
Paul, having literally starved him
self to death in an attempt to fast
for forty days in order to demon nstrate
his theory that the mind controls the
body and that mind is m1ghtier than
matter. Ohnstead's fast lasted thirty.
nine days.
Ohnstead had been steadily growing
weaker during the past week and an
other boarder at the same house noti-
fed the police, declaring that unless
prevented Ohnstead would starve
himself to death. An officer was sent
to the house and he found Ohnstead
in an emaciated condition and very
weak. He suggested to Ohnstead that
he be treated by physician, but Ohm
stead replied that he knew what he
was doing and that he desired moth
ing to eat Or treatment of any kind
The officers report was sent to the
city physician and when an assistant
went to the house several hours later
he found that Ohnstead had sue
cumbed.
Ohnstead was about forty years of
age and had done no work since be.

HONOR STATES DEAD
Monument Dedicated on the Bat

JOHNSON MAKES AN ADDRESS
After Paying Tribute to Minnesota's
Soldiers in the Civil War He
Discusses State Rights.

Governor John A. Johnson of Mime
sofa, at the dedication of the monu-
ment erected by the North Star state to
the memory of the Minnesota soldiers
who gave their lives to their country
on the battlefield of Shiloh, Tenn, de-
livered an address carefully calculated
to win the warm approval of the
South.
1t was a consistent and emphatic
declaration in favor of the closest adj
herence to the theory of state
rights and a strongly worded protest
against the extension of interference
by the general government through
the federal courts with the administra-
tiOn of state laws.
The recent decision of the United
States supreme court in the Minneso-
ia and North Carolina railroad rate
cases was characterized as zone of the
unhappy incidents in the history of
our republic"
Ideal weather favored the visiting
Minnesotans and the dedicatory cere-
monies were carried out without un-
toward incident. Governor johnson
and staff and about half hundred
other prominent Minnesota people
were present. General L. F. Hubbard
presided and speeches were made by
Governor Johnson and General C. C..
Andrews of st. Paul, secretary of the
memorial commission.
Governor Johnson's address dealt
first with the honored dead of the
state and he paid a thoughtful tribute
to the Minnesota soldiers in the Civil
war. Then he took up public affairs,
reverting to the early days of the ma
tion and the making of the Constitu-
tion. He said that it is the duty of
the Americans of today to pres erye
the form and subs tance of the denoc-
racy created by the fathers.
