Trains Taking Away Women and Children.

Warroad, Mimi, Oct 9.-Beaudette,
Spooner, Pitt and GracetOn, Mimi,
We're wiped off the map this morning
by the most terrible forest fires ever
experienced by Minnesota settlers.
The dead bodies of IS settlers have
been found and it is thought that the
death toll among the settlers will be
upwards of 800.
Wagon loads of corpses are con-
stantly brought into the railway sta
ton at Beaudette
1t is reported that many settlers,
crazed with grief at the loss of fam
lilies and property, are roaming the
woods and searching parties are con-
stantly going out after the injured,
the Gead and the demented. One
family of nine, one of seven, and one
OF five were wiped out Friday night.
At $50 o'clock Saturday evening
the fire attacked Beaudette and Spoon
el and within tire minutes after the
first ALARM every building was ablaze.
Within an hour they We're heaps of
ashes. The people of these two towns
had just time to quit their homes with
only what they had on their backs.
They were placed on passenger train
standing at the depot and taken across
to Rainy River Ont, to safety.
The whole country east of here is on
fire. Roosevelt. Swift, Williams and
Cedar Spur are in great danger. All the
women and children are being remOv-
ed to places of safety. The Canadian

New Republic Turns Attention to C|eri-

Attacks on Converts -Roya|Fam-
lily Welcomed at Gibraltar.

Lisbon, Oct. 9.-The religious con-
gregations are for the time being the
chief objects of public attention and
preparations are being made for a
general expulsion. Two hundred and
thi.ty-three nuns are gathered at the
naval arsenal, ready to be sent out
of the country. The children who
have been under the guardianship of
the converts and monasteries have
been returned to their families. Car
dinal Joseph Sebartian Neto, eX-pa-
triarch of Lisbon, is among the &C.
clesiasts expelled.
The provisional minister of justice,
Alfonso Costa, said in an interview
today: The solution of the prob
lem of the congregations is not diff
cult. The government only needs to
prevent q continuance of religious
settlement, all of which are illegal
The dissolution will occur without
trouble and the confiscation of prop
erty will follow in due course.
Last evening there was great excite
ment in various parts of the city in
consequence of attacks upon the con-
vents, particularly the assault against
the Jesuit Monastery in the Rura De
Quelhas, which was surrounded by
shouting crowds. Cavalry patrolled the
streets and from time to time rifle
shots were heard. 1t was impossible to
ascertain from what direction the shots
came Sailors guarding the Merces
chapel entered that editice but found
nothing. 1t is believed, however. that
underground passages connect the con-
vents and that those who were respon-
sible for the shooting made their es-
cape through these.

Chicago, Oct 9.-Eugene Ely. lone
aeroplane fight, started on the test
this afternoon, but remained in the
air only II minutes At that he trav-
eled IL miles and landed where fresh
start will be easy tomorrow morning.
The young aviator descended be-
cause of clogged carbureter. Re-
pairing this was a matter of a few
moments, but in the rapidly gather
ing dusk in trying to start again he
ran the machine into a rock and the
front running wheel was torn away.
A new wheel was brought up and the
force of mechanics began work, while
Ely went to Gary to spend the night
in q special car.
TO an aviator such mishaps are an
ticipated; they are not even annoying"
said Ely. "I'll start afresh at o'clock
tomorrow morning and if the wind is
like it was today, I'll not stop of my
own will until l reach South Bend,
Ind. and not long at that place.
Two hours before the start Curtiss,
Willard, McCurdy, Ely and a number
OF mechanics went over the biplane
with the most careful scrutiny. The
propeller developed thrust" of $40
pounds, worn parts We're replaced and
nuts and screws frightened. To make
assurance doubly sure, Curtiss made
flight of few moments and upon
alighting pronounced the Boston rae

latter indicated precisely All o'clock
when the propeller began whirring. In
nine seconds the aviator had left the
earth, and after a short turn set his
course in the direction of South Bend.
A snappy wind was on his quarter, al
most at his back. That it was a great
accelerator of his speed is shown by the
fact that in the II minutes he was in
fight he covered II miles.
A telephone message from La Porte,
Ind. said that crowd of $1,000 persons
awaited the aviator in the city, and an
other from South Bend said that 5000

Near Acton, Mass.

Acton, Mass, Oct. 9.-With a report
that shook buildings throughout the
town of Maynard and broke a number
of windows in different parts of the town,
a press mill in one of the many small
structures which make up the plant OF
the American Powder Co., located be-
tween Acton and Maynard, blew up to-
night. The mill building was completely
wrecked, it's contents destroyed and big
hole torn in the ground. No one was
hurt The powder contained in the mill
was in its finished shape, ready for press
ing, and there are only two ways in
which it is believed it could have been
set off, either by human agency or by
lightning.
This is the sixth mill which the COM
pany has lost through explosions during
the past year. The loss today. will prob
ably not exceed 5000.

Most of the women and children OF
these towns have been taken on special
trains to points east and many more
are on steamers ready to leave should
the wind change and the fire spread.
All available hose is in use, but the
fire driven by a strong northwest wind,
is beyond control and must burn itself
out. The wind has shifted and is car
rying the flames away from Roosevelt
Unless the wind changes again the
town will be saved.
Canadian Northern Railway trains
have heen stalled here since Friday
night, when a freight train went
through bridge near Pitt. The crew
was saved and Conductor Monahan
walked into Beaudette, which town he
reported as destroyed. only the water

depot stand. Monahan said he walked
over bodies on the way but could not
say how many. Many settlers took to

fires are still raging and the smoke is
sitting. Calls are coming in for help
for settlers II miles south.
Wires are down and news is obtain
