7:15 o'clock a. m, of nephritis, Jose.
phine Tracy, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Matthew Tracy, aged l3 years, 3 months
and Is days.
Last Saturday on every hand were
heard expressions of deepest and Lost
sincere sorrow for Mr.. and Mrs Matthew
Tracy in the loss of their young daugh.
ter who died that morning after a
lingering illness of nearly two years.
The child developed the dread disease
which caused her demise about two
years ago. Everything that medical
skill could do was tried to ward off the
grim reaper but to no avail The
burden is fearfully hard for the
bereaved parents as this is the third OF
their children who has passed to the
silent shore.
The remains were taken TO Brandon,
Wis, Sunday morning accompanied
by the bereaved parents, to be laid to
rest there in the family cemetery.

The Butler Fire.

Wednesday morning about lilo fire
was discovered in the Potter, Gsrrick &
Potter elevator in Butler. An alarm
was Immediately turned in and the
people of the entire surrounding country
turned out and put forth heroic efforts
to save the town. A high wind was
blowing at the time and it was soon
patent TO all that nothing could save
the Potter and the Chilson elevators and
all efforts were made by the fighters TO
contiue the flames to those buildings
The Bagley and Empire elevators
and the depot caught fire several times
but extinguished each time and finally
saved. The Potter, Garriok 81 Potter
elevator and the one belonging to the
Chilson Grain company were completely
destroyed. The losses were, as near as
could be estimated yesterday: Potter,
Garrick q Potter. elevator and feed
mill, s. 500, grain in Elevator, 81, 800.
The elevator was insured for 81, 500 and
the grain fully insured. Chilson Grain
company elevator, $500, feed mill
$3.50, grain 1000 Mr.. A. E. Chilson
was in the cities and it is not known
whether he carried insurance or not
The Empire elevator company lost a
coal house valued at 800 fully covered
by insurance.
The fire is supposed TO have originated
in a car set out TO be loaded by the
Potter elevator yesterday, and presum-
ably from sparks from an engine which
were blown into the car from passing
train and smoldcred until famed into
flame by the high winds.
Butler can congratulate herself that
without water protection and the high
wind blowing that she escaped with SO
small a loss.

Boxing as james,, Jeffries Sees 1t.

Man is and always will be, a
fighting animal. From the time
when he used a stone axe and
hint.pointed arrows, right up to
the present with its smokeless
powder and long range guns,
the history of the world may be
summed up in the one word
scrap. And when mankind
was not employing the fists
which Nature gave it, or the
weapons which it invented it
was fighting with it's brains,
seeking to overcome the difficult
ties which lay in the way of it's
progress, or trying to get the
best obstacles which hindered
it's development. So that the
better fighter a nation was, the
more quickly did it become
civilized, because it tackled and
downed the things which bound
it to savagery more speedily
than did its less aggressive
neighbors.
The moral of all this is simpl.
that a youngsters education
should include sports and exer
| cises which will not only keeI
alive his ''combative Instincts,
as the scientific sharps call then
but also teach him to properl
e use them.-From August Physi

The Lippincott's Magazine for
July tells of a Missouri boy
probably living at lexington
as follows;-
A gentleman went to a small
primitive village for the purpose
of inspecting some land which
he had owned for a number of
years but had never seen,
Reaching the place one evening,
he secured lodging in a small
house,
The next morning, he went to
the back of the house, where on
a bench was a tin washbasin and
near at hand a barrel of water
and a dipper. After washing
his hands and face he took from
his pocket a toothbrush, and
pouring some water on it from
the dipper, proceeded to brusl
his teeth.
A small boy of the hous'
watched him for a few moment.
