Miners Forming Fire Brigades
to Fight Flames.

Duluth, Mimi, July S.-Forest fires
are raging around many of the Mesaba
range towns and cities and unless rain
comes O o there will probably be
great damage sustained.
No less than seven towns or mining
locations are now threatened, and the
fires are being bought around all of
them.
These places are Biwabik, Aurora.
Virginia, Eveleth, Gilbert, Mckinley
and Mesaba.
The reports are that the fires are
worse than last fall. Fire is burning
on the north and south sides of Vir-
ginia. Virginia has twice been de-
stroyed by fire and though the place
has been rebuilt more substantially
each time, the people there are very
much disturbed by the mere presence
of extensive bush or forest fires in
that vicinity.
The miners at Mckinley are out
fighting the fires near that village and
the village of Mesaba is reported to
be prac< :cally surrounded by fire.
The north country is ripe for disas-
trous fires. Fortunately there is little
wind.

THE ENGLISH THANK YOU,
Sometimes an Apo'ogy-Not Spoken
With Our infection.

The expression thank YOU is
muc more current in England than
In America. 1t is also used with much
wider significance. often as the equiv
alent of II beg your pardon.' For
instance, says the Travel Magazine.
an English person passing before
another CT perhaps jostling one or
even treadtng on his foot will say in
apology THANK you"
The phrase is heard constantly. If
a salesman in a shop or a newsboy
on the street solicits your custom and
you refuse it he will say thank you"
quite as cheerfully as if you made a
purchase.
There is a difference in the alter.
ance, too. The English emphasize the
second word very strongly and finish
with a rising infection as if asking a
question. An American is RECOGNIZED
at once by his ~accenting the word
thank and closing with the falling
infection.
