Blaze Liclls Dallas
Dallas, S. ID. Oct. Ia. Amid
scenes of indescribable confu-
sion and excitement the city of
4 Dallas almost met destruction
today by fire, which swept in
from the prairie on the west
and secured a hold in the resi-
/ dence section.
In spite Of the fact that near
lily all of the residents of the eli
ty and hundreds of land open
ing visitors turned out to fight
the prairie fire, a fierce gale
overtopped all efforts and for a
time threatened to sweep the
fire through the business dis
trict.
The water supply, which was
short at the outset, soon became
exhausted and left the multi
tude almost helpless, except to
tear down some small buildings
in the path of the flames. Ever
this work would not have beer
available, but the fury of the
wind abated and enabled the
fighters, with blankets, quilts
and sacks, to hold the fire away
from a large livery barn. which
was the undisputed key to the
situation, so far as the business
district was concerned. This
building was ignited several
times. Smoke from the burn
ing prairie and dwelling houses
was 50 dense that the whole
town seemed to be burning
Ole could not see a distance o.
twenty feet.
A large proportion of tn,
5000 visitors in the city, as vel
as local residents, became panic
stricken and there was a wilt
; rush for safety. On one pillow
ed field south of town there
We're more than 500 paople will

Others made a rash for safet
with teams and automobiles.
The streets were filled wit
screaming women and flanti

Various other towns in Vermont are
confronted by similar conditions, and
IL the drouth continues much longer, II
is impossible to predict what may
not happen as a result Of lack of
water in such places. Nor are the
cities and villages the only sufferers
from the drouth. Some farmers In
Chittcndcn county are drawing water
from Lake Champlain by team TO sup
ply their stock. to say nothing of the
drying UP OF pastures and the conse-
uuent necessity of feeding dairies.
The damage to this section OF the
country us result of the drouth has
already been large and IT is to be
hoped the predictions of the weather
department that rain is probable in
the course of few days may prove
to be true.

AUTUMN VISITORS FOR VERMONT.

Residents OF the larger cities who
have admired Vermont's autunnai
coat of many colors can appreciate
tho following pertinent question of the
Manchester journal.
why DO our summer guests feel II
necessary for them to follow the SEEM
Ing iron clad rule OF getting back TO
the city as 500 as the first of Septem-
Der comes? We are now coming into
the finest months Of the year. What
Ia there Erandcr than the mountains
of Vermont in October"
This is a practical question and the
practical answer to It IS that most
heads OF families who visit Vermont
during tho summer arc business men.
and business calls them homo to take
part in the fell activity.
1t Is also true that not a few of
means and leisure. whose energies arc
devoted in part to securing pleasant
surroundings for themselves and fam
HES. For this class OF people the
Journals question is pertinent MS we'll
ms timely. To such we would say:
why do you leave us at the threshold
of the most gorgeous season OF the
yenr? Visit Vermont once on a mag
niacent October day with Just enough
crispnrss in the air and just the right
proportion Of ozone to send your blood
tingling through tho arteries. Cast
your eyes over the grand panorama of
lake and mountain scenery. Feed
your love Of the beautiful on the
splendors of the autumnal tints which
clothe our hillsides on every hand
Feast your artistic sense on the brill
liant combinations Of crimson and gold
and russell and brown, and then say
IL IN all your enjoyment OF Natures
wonderful painting you ever beheld
anything moro beautiful.
The beauties Of Vermont are coming
to be appreciated MS never before
Many visitors visitors do enjoy tho
beauties OF autumn In the Green
Mountains. We arc Just beginning &c
realize a hint OF the fulness OF the
autumn tourist travel which oul
State should enjoy and Il Is for us &c
SOW judiciously II wa would reap gen.
| erously.

THE STORY TELLER.
A SAILORS CHRISTENING

THE late Bishop Potter once in his
early days had occasion to offlciate at n
christening In small fishing village on
the Massachusetts coast" says writer
In the current Issue OF Harper's Weekly.
THE proud father. n young fisherman.
nwkwardly holding his first-born daush-
ter, was visibly embarrassed under the
scrutiny of the many eyes in the congre-
CATION. and his nervousness was not de-
creased by the sudden wailing of the in
FAINT as they stood at the font
When the time for the baptism OF the
babe arrived the bishop noticed that the
father was holding the child SO that Its
fat little legs pointed toward the font
Turn her this wav,'he whispered. but
the father was too disconnected to hear
or understand.
" Turn her feet around the bishop
