noon, is Spokane boy and a pol,-
lar favorite not only here but all
over the world, for he has just re-
turned from a two years trip
abroad. AS Eddie Allen he was a
popular bicycle rider and was with
the Fred Merrill cycle company for
long time. Even in those youth
full days he was valued acquisi-
ton to every entertainment in the
city. AS he grew older his beauti-
full tenor voice was demanded on
the stage and he went out support
ing well known stars in Irish plays,
for he soon found that was his
sRecialty-delineation Of Irish
types.
He will put on a playlet, Sweet
County Kerry" in which he plays
Terry, the piper and also the Irish
bagpipes which he invented. He
will be supported by Miss Edna
Keenley as Norah. The Four Hen
rvs, whirlwind dancers, will be a
strong act in the way Of eccentric
acrobatic novelties. They were dis
covered in st. Petersburg by Rich
ard Pitrot, the European agent for
Pantages, where they were appear

Northern Minnesota Visited by Fire Horror
Second Only to the Hinakley Fire.
Ten Thousand People Homeless and Deaths
Run Into Hundreds.
ID. CLOTHING AND MONEY NEEDED
Governor Eberhart Issues Appeal for Aid---
Himself to the Front.

On the inside pages of this paper
will be found brief account Of the
fire horror that has visited the
state of Minnesota, by far the
most stupendous confagration that
history records since the Hinckley
horror.
Hundreds of square miles of teri
tory were devastated of all growth
and settlers cabins and worldly
possessions were swept away by the
fiery air like so much paper. Set
tiers who, with their families,
abandoned their claims to the
elements were themselves caught
and burned beyond recognition
their charred remains being found
all over the burned over country.
All the enterprising towns be-
tween international Falls on the
east to Warroad on the west were
wiped of the face of the earth
and it is conservatively estimated
that ten thousand people are home
less and without anything more
than the clothes they had on when
they themselves escaped the fiery
elements.
The country is appalled, by the
holocaust, but characteristic of this
north country all rushed to the aid
of the stricken section and relief is
pouring in from all quarters. Our
Canadian neighbors are not the

TUBERCULOSIS
Red Cross Seals Expected
to Furnish a Million.

What A Million for Tubercu-
losis from Red Cross Seals" will do
in the checking of consumption, is
contained in bulletin issued to-
day by the National Association
for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis.
Counting every available bed for
consumptives in the United States,
even those in almshouses, penal in
stitutions, and hospitals for the
insane, there are at present time
accommodations for hardly 10000
tuberculosis patients. This is just
about one bed for every ten
INDECENT consumptives, and if all
tuberculosis persons in the country
are counted, both rich and poor,
hardly one for every twenty-five or
thirty. If sufficient hospital &C
commodations are provided only
for those who are to poor to pay
the full price for their treatment,
fully 275,O0O more beds in special
institutions for tuberculosis would
be needed at once. The immense
outlay necessary to provide and
maintain so many beds in hospitals,
makes it interpretive, the National
Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis de-
clares, that such institutions be
erected from public money. either
municipal, county or state. In
order to get appropriations for
public hospitals for tuberculosis,
agitation is necessary, and in order
to create campaign of agitation,
organization is demanded. But in
order that an organization may
carry on an effective campaign,
funds are needed.
These funds it is proposed to
secure iii as many communities as
possible from the sale of Red Cross
Seals.
Minnesota needs ZOO of these
beds in city, county. and state
hospitals. This would care for the
destitute and dying cases among
our 10000 consumptives and re-
suit in greatly reducing the spread
of infection. The Minnesota As
ISOLATION for the Prevention and
Relief of tuberculosis now has
commission at work drafting
legislation and detailing the public
appropriations required for this
purpose. Its recommendations
must be given the broadcast publici-
ty if they are to be acted on by the
legislature and hence it appeals to
the public generally to buy Red
Cross Seals this coming Christmas
and so help the agitation for more
hospital provision. Private sub
+scriptions in any amount will also
be gladly received by the Execut-

doing heroic work at the front.
Governor Eberhart has cancel1-
ed his political dates for an indefi-
mite period and is in the district
directing relief measures. The
militia of Bernidji and Duluth were
ordered to Beaudette and Spooner
to protect property and render
assistance where needed. Our
governor has issued an appeal to
the citizens which will be found on
the inside of this paper. The ap-
peal speaks for itself.
