FIVE MEN
BURNED TO DEATH
Large Livery Stable in Duluth, MINI.
Destroyed BY Fire.

Duluth, Mimi, June 2O.-Five men
and a hundred horses lost their lives
late Saturday afternoon in fire that
totally destroyed the Board of Trade
livery stable here. The fire was of I'M
known origin and spread so rapidly
that the entire building was ablaze
before the department arrived.
The dead: William Nichols, A. Gus,
tafsen, Charles Dryer, A. Rock and
Peter Peterson.
All the victims except Peterson left
families and all were employees of the
stable.
The alarm was given by Nichols,
who returned to the burning building
in an effort to save some of his fel.
low workmen, who were trapped in
the basement. He was overcome,
however, when within a few feet of
his destination and was burned to a
crisp. The position of the bodies when
found indicates that all of the victims
fought to escape, but were hemmed in
on all sides.

GIVES RULES FOR
FREE LAND FILING
James w. Wilton, Superintendent of
Reservation Openings, Answers
Inquiries.

Inquiries as to the qualifications re-
quired of person who files an applica-
ton for registration as agent for a
former soldier in one of the three In
dian reservations which will be thrown
open this summer have been so frequent
to James w. Written, superintendent
of the opening, that he has sent the
following instructions to the land offices
at Spokane, Occur 'Alene, Idaho, and
Missoula and Kalispell, Mont:
"Any person, married or single, male
or females, who is of requisite age to
act as agent for another in an ordinary
business transaction will be permitted
to file applications for soldiers under
duly executed powers of attorney.
mo person can act as agent for
more than one soldier at any registra-
ton point. The same agent may regis
ter for the same or different soldiers
for each of the three reservations, but
a separate power of attorney is needed
for each registration.
The printed pamphlet sent out by
the department Of the interior, giving
information in regard to the opening,
says:
"Soldiers or sailors who were honor
ably discharged after 80 days service
during the war of the rebellion, the
Spanish-American war or the Philip
pine Instruction, or their widows or
minor orphan children, need not 90 to
either of the registration points for the
purpose of registering, but may register
through agents appointed by them for
that purpose. All agents must be ap-
pointed on blank powers of attorney
which will be furnished by me on ap-
plication at Washington, D. c., at any
time before July 5, and after that date
at Occur d 'Alene, Idaho.
Separate Power of Attorney.
"Soldiers, sailors or their widows or
minor orphan children may appoint the
same or different persons to act for
them in registering for different reserv-
atlons, but no person can appoint more
than one agent for the same reservation
and no agent can register for more than
one soldier for any one reservation. A
different and separate power of attorney
must be given for each reservation to
the same or different persons.
"Powers of attorney must be sworn
to by soldiers, sailors, their widows or
minor orphan children, or their guar
dams, before some officer having
seal and authorized to administer oaths
at some place within the United States,
and the name Of the agent must be
written into the power Of attorney be-
fore it is sworn to by the soldier. The
application for registration presented
by the agent must be sworn 20 ny him
at a registration point for the reserva-
ton for which he registers"

Enuland's Debutante Princess.

TIER ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCESS
II ALEXANDRA of Fife is the debu-
tante princess of the British royal famliy
for 1909. She is tall, athletic young
lady, whose other titles are Duchess or
Fife and Countess of MacDuff, all OF
which titles remind one strongly OF
Shakespeare's celebrated tragedy OF
Macbeth in which the same historic
titles figure. The Princess Alexandra Is,
of course, named after the queen or
England, who is her grandmother. Her
grandfather, King Edward, raised her TO
the rank of highness, with the title OF
princess, and in 1900 the late Queen Vic
toria created separate duchy of Fife
for her great-granddaughter who until
then had been only the lady Alexandra
Duff.
Princess Alexandra. being eighteen
years old, will be presented to royal social
circles as a debutante princess, and de-
spite her retiring disposition and prefer
ence for Out-of-door sports and country
life, she will hereafter be expected to at
tend all the important functions or the
court of st. James.
This princely debutante is an expert
fisher-maiden and prefers to angle In
some of the splendid streams near her
land, to dwelling in her own house in
London This love of out-of-door life
and her fondness for horseback riding
have made the princess tall, slender and
active, with a fine complexion and mag
nificent health.
The Princess Alexandra is not wealthy
as money is calculated among royal per-
sonages, but she has been given splendid
presents of jewelry by her royal grand
parents, and King Edward is said to have
expressed a desire that this particular
member of his family be given a most
expensive and fashionable entry into the
social whirl.
