are sold
Occasionally a well-meaning person at
taches one of the seals to the face OF
his or her foreign letter, not knowing, or
perhaps forgetting, that the countries
OF the universal postal union forbid it.
The managers of the project have effect
ed an arrangement through the Post
master General with almost all the for
eign governments whereby letters and
parcels bearing Red Cross Christmas
seals will be delivered provided the seals
are pasted on the back of the envelope
or the reverse side of the wrapper to that
on which the address and stamps to pay
postage are attached.
The postal authorities say Washington
users of the Red Cross seals understand
this requirement and comply with it.
but elsewhere throughout the country
it has been otherwise. Yet, withal, the
postal authorities have been good, In a
way at least. as far as they could.
and many Of the letters and parcels i'm
properly sealed with the little Christ
mas greetings bearing the Red Cross
stamp have been sent in special sealed
bags with the request like Rip Van
Wrinkles famous plea that I'VE won't
count this one" Guatemala, Uruguay

danger Of this city's destruction had
passed, but it brought also confirma-
ton Of losses which were only rumored
and suspected last night. At least two
died in the city fire, John J. Boyd, a
pioneer of the Occur d'Alenes, and an
man or woman incinerated
in the Michigan hotel. Only the skull
of the latter was found in the ruins
this morning.
OF the fire fighting forces an accu-
rate toll of the dead and wounded is
but the known dead num-
Der "a, the total injured 25, in addition
to 10 blinded by smoke.
1t is estimated that the loss in the
city is about s1.OOO,OOO. The entire
eastern section from Seventh street to
Canton street is destroyed with no
traces of residences on the hillside.
About $50 residences were destroyed
and many other smaller business
places. Providence hospital and the
Federal Land Company's big mills are
the only buildings saved in the East
End.
The forest supervisor reports that
the entire country between Wallace
and the St. John river is swept prac-
tically clean and that the loss Of tim
Der is stupendous. Fires between
Burke and Mullan threaten both towns

One fighter was found dead near
Mullan and sixteen who were more Oh
less seriously burned. At Pine Creek
three are dead. five blinded and five

The bodies of the dead are being
buried wherever they are found. Days
and weeks may elapse before anything
like a complete estimate of the fatali-
ties IS available.
Fires are still burning around the
city, but most OF the hillsides facing
the towns are now burned off and un-
less the wind rises the town is com
paratively safe.
Two or three hundred people are lef
homeless, many having lost their be
lonGings \ thick pail Of smoke still
hangs over the city and a watch is be
