FIRES IN BLACK HILLS
Two Hundred Men Are Fighting the
Flames South of Redfern, S. D.

Deadwood. S. d., Oct IA dozen
forest fires of threatening proportions
are raging in the Black Hills. Three
of them, just south of Redfern, on the
Burlington line, became so acute that
the forest service sent 200 men from
Lead on special train
Other recruits were obtained in the
southern hills to fight the flames.

Rainy River, Ont, Oct. II. = Five
thousand people here thought they
would never see another sun rise.
They were the 1000 residents of this
town and the 5000 or more refugees
Quartered here. At o'clock Monday
morning the wind sprang up and with
a suddenness which was appalling, the
town started to burn in a dozen or
more places at once. The men rushed
to fight the flames, but the velocity
of the wind increased and their eff
forts, even with the recently installed
high pressure water system, proved of
no avail. Then, with the same sud-
denness with which it had arisen, the
wind dropped to a calm.
Late Monday afternoon, the wind
which had previously escaped, and
even burning over the land which had
been ravished by the flames during
the past few days. There are fully
5000 squares miles of timber On fire
If not larger area, and reports of the
finding of bodies are being received
every few minutes.
The dead will number 500 is the
general belief, but General Superin-
tendent Cameron, Of the Canadian
Northern railway, who has spent
three days in the districts on fire, says
the estimate is far too conservative
In support of this statement is the
fact that SO far no systematic search
has been made for bodies, although
there are over 100 in the morgue at
Beaudette, and they have been taken
from the vicinity Of that town. Three
days ago fire burned over the thickly
settled area between here and STRAIT
ton, but so far only handful of refu-
gees have arrived from there and the
others cannot be heard from.

Warroad, Mimi. Oct. 11.-The vii
Iage of SoaI is wiped out and its $50
people arrived here in a relief train
with nothing more in their possession
than the things they stood up in. They
are being cared for by the other refu-
gees, adding to the already crowded
condition of the town. All the refu-
gees are penniIess. Relief must be
furnished Immediately. A food famine
appears inevitable.

TWO DIARIES To BE
REFUSED PERMITS
Establishments at KaysyiIIe
Fail TO Reach Standard
in Scoring.
COMMISSIONER WILL TAKE
ACTION IN OTHER CASES
Attempt VIII Be Made to Pre-
vent Wholesale Firms Re-
ceiying Milk.

As II result Of scoring Of several
dairies at kaysvillc Friday by City
Food and Dairy Commissioner Walter
Frazier, at least two dairics viii have
their permits to sell milk in this city
revoked on account Of not being able
TO come mp TO the standard in regard
10 the score.
w. II. Jamison has been getting ralh-
or lax IN regard to conditions about his
dairy since the previous scoring last
December, it is said and as result
he will be deprived Of his permit on
Monday. When Mr., Frazier visited the
Jamison dairy in December the score
was 81, which is ouo point above the
standard required When tho place was
visited Friday the commissioner found
that Jamisou had not been taking good
caro- Of hiS cows and the conditions
about his barn were filthy. the com.
missioner says, The result is that the
score this time was only 30ia. which is
below the standard hence the permit
viii be revoked.
The dairy operated by Frank Galley
showed some Improvement over the Db-
rcmbcr score, but it is still below the
standard and his permit Will also be
revoked. In December his dairy scorco
80 points and the result Of the score
on Friday was 10 points, which is five
below the standard
The dairy of John Galley was not
scored on account Of the fact that he
intends TO quit the business. The
George Openshaw dairy was Just n
half point TO the good, as it scored
50l2, so no will be given a permit.
Some Of the Kaysvillc and Farming
ton dairies which have been denied per
mits have continued TO ship milk into
the city, according to Mr.. Frazier. and
it is quite likely that there will be
something done 10 stop the wholesale
firms from receiving such milk Some
action will be taken in the matter on
Monday.
