CANCER AVID FISH.

Buffalo. N. Y. May 24.--An investi-
cation IL being made by the Buffalo
State Cancer Laboratory to ascertain
whether ash communicate the germs
OF cancer to humans by their use as
food.
DR.. Harvey H. Gaylord. head OF the
laboratory, has announced that they
are now endeavoring to definitely dis
cover whether cancer is thus communi-
Gated or whether the germs are in-the
water and the disease impaired in that
way
There In no certainty that cancer
comes from fish," said DIR. Gaylord.
1--WE are conducting a very vigorous
line OF experiments, however, to find
out. The discovery that cancer exists
among fish was first made by French
scientist. A study of fish has proven
that the disease Is quite common
among these species of animal life. 1t
Is found that the gills Of fish. are the
parts affected. The disease is found In
many varieties of fresh water fish, and
many sea Ash have also been found
which are 80 diseased"
While DIR. Gaylord was quite guard
ed In his statements, 1t Is known that
officials of the state Forest. Fish and
Game Commission are much worried.
1t is said that when fish are cooked
the cancer germs are killed.
If ths experiments show that the
streams Of the State are affected by
certain kinds of fish and the germs are
in that way communicated to the hui
man body, 1t may mean the extermina-
ton of this fish.

Railroad News
COAL SHORTAGE
PREDICTED IN N. W.
REPORTS SAY THAT CONSUMERS
ARE SLOW IN BUYING, AND
STORAGE PLACES ARE
FULL.

ST. Paul, Oct 30.--A coal shortage
throughout the northwest is very prob
able this year, according to reports
from parts of Minnesota, north and
South Dakota. The slow buying on the
part of the consumers has caused the
retail dealers to keep their bins full
with no room to store large supplies,
and the railroads have been unable to
move the amount that will be neces-
sary for the winter.
There is not more than two-thirds
of what will be required for a normal
winter" said a railroad official this
morning, eand the country districts are
due for some distress If the winter Is
severe"
The docks at Duluth and Superior
are well filled and the railroads have
plenty of cars, but the country towns
are stocked to the limit Of the storage
capacity.
The Twin City supply is apparently
adequate for all demands and there
will be no hardships experienced here.
There is no coal moving by rail from
the Illinois mines. The local demand In
that state is keeping the mines busy.
The same condition prevails in Penn
sylvania and Ohio.

GROWING ALMOST BEYOND 5E.
LIEF.-THRoNGEp WITH IN
TEREsTEp SPECTATORS ALL
DAY.

Truly this IL a wonderful country
especially is this true Of the great sec
tions 70 the northwest Of us. This ia
prompted by visit to the Fruit Car
now at the Great Northern Depot. and
after seeing the almost unbelievable
things that are grown there.
Fruits and flowers, grains and vege-
tables--more wonderful In their actu-
ality than the storied wonders of the
tropics--these things grown in our
own great country much of it on
land that has been developed within
the last decade.
Apples as large as a quart bowl
Peaches and Pears, Berries and Plums
all kinds Of fruits and so lucious look
ing that IL is a wonder the crowds
do not take them OF. Turnips as
large as a peck measure, Rhubarb and
Celery almost as large as an arm, Po-
tatoes that put the biggest potatoe'
stories of the country papers to shame
Wheat and other grains that are sim
ply wonderful-this is the story OF
what people can see at the fruit car
All these things are grown on land
similar to that of the Umatilla Irri-
gated Lands Co, mention OF which was
made i'm this paper week ago. Land
where the climate is sunny the year
round, where no drouth ever blights OF
heavy frost withers the products of the
fertile soil.
The Umatilla Lands are at Hernis-
ton, Oregon, In the heart of the great
irrigated land district, near Hood river
and the great North Yakima sections
that have been SO wonderfully pro-
ductive.
Pres. Green of the Umatilla Irri-
gated Lands Co, stated today that
everything shown in the Great North
ern car can be produced in the Herm-
iston district-that the soil was so fer
tile that crops aggregating $1,000 pei
acre could be produced-that within
ten years lands now selling at moder-
ate prices on easy terms would be sc
valuable that 1t could not be bought
at any price.

BURNS TO DEATH
IN FLAMING WAGON
FOOT CAUGHT IN WIRES IN WAC.
ON, DICKINSON MAN STANDS
BLAZING TORCH WHILE
TEAM RUNS.

Dickinson, N. D., Oct 30.-Trapped
in q chariot of fire, rushed by uncheck-
ed horses into the teeth OF tanning
gale across the level North Dakota
prairie, Patrick Keogh, a former rail-
road operator, now engaged in ranching
with his sons north of Knife river, was
torn from the flaming vehicle by Roger
D1lDeck, a mail carrier, after a running
chase OF many miles, to Ole IN agonies,
unattended in a rancn house.
In an old high board farm wagon.
bedded with hay and tied together with
bits of barbed wire, Keogh left the
ranch house for Manning, the county
seat Of Dunn county, north of the
Knife river early this morning.
Roger Dilbeck. the mail carrier of
Dickinson, left here about the same
time and was drawing near the Knife
river about noon. The wind was high
and blowing directly out of the west.
Saw the Flaming Wagon.
Dilbeck while stopping in a conven-
lent gully TO water his horses, looked
up to see moving object of smoke and
spurts of flame issue over the skyline
crest OF a ground swell, about a mile
anu y ftdlI east.
When the horses and the flaming
wagon roared by Dilbeck saw a human
figure, encased in fire, hurl itself up
ward from some fastening within and
over the sides of the wagon.
Horror-struck Dilbeck wheeled his
horses about and pursued the crazed
runaway team for nine miles. His
horses were unable to draw near the
burning wagon. Finally he turned the
death frightened meteor into a bend OF
the Knife river, where the runaways
leaped over the bank into the waters,
twenty feet below.
Upon wading into the river, Dilbeck
found the wagon Moderated and
Keogh burned unconscious, fastened by
one foot to a tangle of wire in the
bottom Of the wagon. He was carried
to the nearest ranch house where he
died at 2 o'clock Keogh left home
smoking a pipe, probably fell asleep
on the hay, which the pipe ignited
Keogh was one of the oldest operators
Of the Northern Pacific, coming to He
bron, near here, from Wisconsin. He
purchased a ranch two years ago
