was settled by motion to the effect
that the temperance forces in the dis

A Peculiar Accident.

A peculiar accident happened at the
Princeton Cooperative creamery on
Monday afternoon. Buttermaker
Warner. who detests flies more so than
he does old beelzebub, started on his
daily work of destruction. Mumbling
to himself words that would perhaps
not look we'll in print, he proceeded to
the boiler and filed a7big bucket with
water. Going from there to q window
where flies we're disporting, he lifted
the pail and expected to dash it's con-
tents against the glass, but the handle
of the vessel came into contact with q
bar Of the Wizard agitator and the
boiling water was poured over his left
arm. AS quickly as possible he
applied linseed oil to the: arm, but the
hot water had taken effect-the skin,
q strip several inches in length,
peeled off and left bad sore.
Luckily Mr.. Warner carries accident
insurance.

Caswell q Sure Winner.

Irving A. Caswell, clerk of the state
supreme court, will have no opposi-
ton at the election on November 8.
Fred E. Wheaton of Minneapolis, the
democratic nominee, had not filed at
the time the lists closed at midnight
on Saturday. Mr.. Wheaton is the
business head of the knights OF
Pythias of the country, holding the
Office of supreme keeper of records and
seal, which requires his close per-
sonal attention all the time. He is
quoted as saying: IT could not serve
as clerk of the supreme court if I were
elected, and I do not feel have any
right to run for an Office for which I
could not qualify. I think there is an
excellent prospect for election of the
whole democratic ticket this year, and
I don't care to run the risk of being
elected" -

operation of the enterprising
merchants of Watkins and the road

were wise and appreciated that good
roads leading into their village was
one of the most important points
imaginable to bring business into the
town. Where farmer can haul his
grain to town with one third less
horse power, the distance to two
towns being equal, he is going to do
his trading and sell his grain in the
town that has the best roads leading

Fire Damages Section House.

Last evening at about half past
O'Clock the Great Northern section
house, occupied by J. F. Doty, took
fire in the second story, but the
prompt work of the fire department
saved the building from destruction.
It was, however, damaged in the
northwest corner to considerable
extent and much of the furniture was
ruined by water and chemicals. The
fire is supposed to have originated
from the chimney. Mr.. Doty carried
an insurance of $500 on the furni-

HEAVY LOSS OF LIFE,
Fires in Northern Minnesota Wipe
Out Many Towns and Render
Thousands Homeless.
Relief Trains With Supplies and Red
Cross Nurses Are Sent to the
Scene of the Disaster.

The most disastrous fire in the
history OF northern Minnesota and
Ontario in which many lives have
been lost and millions of dollars
worth of property has been destroyed,
started to the northswest of Beaudette
and Spooner on Saturday and in less
than half an hour the two towns we're
on fire and it was not long before
they were entirely wiped out. The
Canadian Northern railway sent so
box cars to the relief of the inhabi-
tants and they we're conveyed to
Rainy River, across the border.
Shortly after they arrived, however,
that town commenced to burn.
Beaudette, Spooner, Swift, Lang
worth, Triple, Creek, Graceton, Pitt
and Cedar Spur have been completely
wiped out.
From 200 to 500 human lives is the
estimated toll that the fire fend has
exacted from the towns and settle
ments along the northern Minnesota
and Canadian borders. Fully 5000
people are homeless. Saturday and
Sunday many of them we're without
food or clothing and they slept in box
cars or in the open air. Relief ar
rived Monday morning from Duluth,
Virginia and Bemidji and the home
less are now being cared for. The
fire has burned over an area of fully
400 square miles. The whole
northern part of the state was dotted
with log cabins and little clearings OF
the homesteaders and but small per-
centage Of these settlers have been
heard from.
A relief train from St. Paul with
food, hospital supplies and nurses
was dispatched to International Falls
on Tuesday, and people throughout
the country are subscribing literally
toward the fund for the assistance OF
the unfortunate fire victims.
While the fires are still burning in
the vicinity of Rainy River and other
districts, they are less active and
hopes are entertained that the brave
men who are fighting the flames will
succeed in extinguishing them.

Roads That Should be Attended to.

The Germany-Cambridge road from
the George Patten place to the village
limits is in a frightful condition.
This is the piece of road for which r.
G. Dunn has secured the promise OF
SO car loads of crushed rock, some OF
which has already been unloaded at
the railroad yards. But, owing to
the repairs that are now being made
on the East Branch bridge and to the
immense traffic on that road at this
season of the year, it will be impos-
sible to apply the rock before next
spring. In the meantime coating of
straw on this road would help out
immensely. This is one of the most
important arteries of trade leading
into Princeton and it demands i'm
mediate attention..
The stretch of road leading directly
west from the depot is also in a de-
plorable condition. There is straw
stack going to waste right alongside
of that road in the old Mllt Smith
field. A team and couple of men
could straw that road in one day.
Why not do it? The road-overseer of
that district should get busy at once.
We notice road-improvement every
where except in the village and it's
immediate vicinity. A little intelli-
gent work at small expense would
make a wondrous change in the roads
leading into Princeton.

THE HOME TEAM WINS
In First Game of Season Princeton
Defeats Elk River by Thirty
four to a Goose Egg.
Play of Both Teams a Trifle Crude
But With Practice They Will
Come Out All Right.

The first demonstration of 1910, de-
natured and debrutalized football,
was put on by the Elk River and
Princeton high school football teams
at the fair grounds last Saturday.
The Princeton boys proved to be the
better demonstrators, and when the
final whistle blew Princeton had "a
points and Elk River had goose
egg.
A strong wind was blowing from the
west and when Princeton won the toss
they naturally chose the west goal.
Robideau booted the first one nearly
to Elk Rivers 1O-yard line and the
runner was doWned before he had
more than got started. Elk River
failed to gain and was forced to kick
the ball. Princeton secured the ball
and by series of end runs, plays off
tackle and some hard line plunging
by Berg, put the ball over Elk Rivers
goal line for the first touchdown.
Elk River took brace after being
scored on and succeeded in holding
the onslaught of the Princeton backs
until the first quarter was over, but
the second quarter had hardly started
when Princeton scored another touch
down. From this point on it was only
a question of how large the score was
going to be and Princeton carried the
ball over for total of six touch
downs and Robideau kicked four
goals out of six chances.
This was the first chance local foot
ball enthusiasts have had to see the
new rules in operation, and most of
the spectators expressed the opinion
that good deal of the roughness had
been done away with and still enough
of the game left to make football an
exciting fall game.
The play of both teams was little
crude. although at times the Princeton
team showed indications of playing
some real football. For the first
game it was success for Princeton,
and has the effect OF adding consider
able ginger and confidence to the
evening practices. It begins to look
as if diligent practice and plenty OF
coaching would develop football

that the institution could we'll be

sides were warned by the officials at

Next Saturday Princeton plays the

grounds. In order to secure this
game Foley will be allowed to play
one of the faculty, an old St. Cloud
Normal star, so the locals are look.
