Fire on Monday evening completely
destroyed Otto Meerfeld's barn on the
farm southeast of town, together with
about eighty tons of hay. The loss is
fully 5000 with not a cent of insurance.
Mr.. Meerfeld went into the barn be-
tween 5 and O'Clock with team of
horses, and while he was tieing them
he heard a roaring noise overhead,
which he thought might be caused by
another airship crossing over his
place. He hurried out of the barn, but
instead OF seeing huge air craft in
flight he discovered his haymow to be
seething mass of flames. He man
aged to get his team out of the barn,
but four tons of timothy hay in the
NOW was burned together with four
stacks containing about 80 tons, which
were near the barn. He has 40 idea
as to how the fire originated.

trial. Another important case was
that of Chr. G.. Kober vs.. John Burg,
the result of real estate deal in.
which John Burg sold his land in.
Nicollet county to Mr.. .Kober, taking
in payment 24o acres of land near
Crookston and $4,000 in cash. Mr..
Kober claims that Burg made a con-
tract for 400 acres of land, but the
farm only contained about 327 acres,
and hence the suit for the balance on
the contract. The question of mean
dered land, the Burg farm being on
Middle Lake, also seems to enter into
the deal. The case went to the jury
before noon on Saturday. After
wrestling with the problem all after
noon the jury brought in a verdict of
S768. 81 for Kober. A stay of further
proceedings for sixty days has been
granted by the court. The third case
was that of Bradshaw Bros. of Min

This was an action for payment of a

and which they allege Mr.. Holmberg

SANITARIUM
SITE GIVEN UP?
Holly Oak Association Heard
Such Report at Last
Nights Meeting

II was reported at the monthly meeting
OF the Holy Oak Improvement Associa-
tion last night that the project for a
tuberculosis santarium near Claymont
by the Delaware Ant-Tuberculosis So
cicty had been relinquishod. II is said
that, influenced by the opposition of Clay
mont, oMntrose and Holly Oak people, the
Anti-Tubercuiosis Society has decided
upon another site. Officers Of the society
could not be found to-day. and the re-
port could not be confirmed.
The REIMBURSEMENT OF the project, IL
true is a big victory for the suburbanites,
who were up in arms against it when it
was proposed several months ago. Des-
pite several conferences with the officers
OF the Anti-Tuberculosis Society, who as
sured the suburbanites that there could
be no danger OF contagion from such an
institution, the opposition grew and Pc
tition was circulated in the several sub
urbs near the proposed site on the For
wood property This petition was also
largely signed at the meeting last night.
At the same time, to show that the pro-
testants have no III feeling for the society,
the secretary was authorized to write to
the representatives Of the district at Do
Yer urging that an appropriation be given
the society TO carry on its work.
Several important resolutions We're
adopted. One favored the new school bill
suggested by Professor A. r. Spaid, SUI
perintendent Of county schols, which is
before the Legislature, and another au-
thorized Howell s. England, as attorney
of the association, to proceed against the
turnpike company for what is termed the
impossible condition Of the turnpike at
Beiivue.
Another resolution approved the bill now
before the Legislature relating to the stor.
age OF high explosives. This is an echo OF
the protest OF the association some time
ago against the storage Of dynamite by
the Bellvue quarries. II was alleged that
the quarries had stored u tons OF dyna.
mite enough to blow up Wilmington, In
shanty under a tree that had been STRUCK
by lightning several times.

ter trolley service for the suburbs reported
that General Manager Samuel IIoff, oi
the Wilmington City Railway had prom
ised some relief within 30 days. The as
