BAD FIRE AT BRUCE.

Bruce got a little taste of what she
may expect some day if there is not
more attention given to having a fire
brigade and some one who can start
the fire engine. About eleven o'clock
in the forenoon, last Friday, the cry
Of fire WIS heard and it was discovered
that j. E. Wyman's barn, situated
on the alley back of his house and
pool hall and south of the Caldwell
restaurant and Implements Company's
office, was on fire. The fire engine
was got out and it was found there
was not a man in town that could
start it, Myron Bunday and others who
understand the m; chine being out of
town. The wind was blowing from
the south carrying flames toward the
above buildings and it looked as tho
the south side of the business street
was doomed, but a bucket brigade was
formed and the way the ate was
passed long was a wonder, the women
and girls working like Trojans, and by
a hard fight the fire was confined to the
barn where it started, the fire engine
standing useless.
Mr.. Wyman was the heaviest loser
as he not only lost his barn and ice
house but a pair of fine horses, two
sets of harness, a lot of corn and hay
and his ice put up for summer use.
He came near losing his fine stallion
Monarch, as his name was singed be-
fore he could be got out of the barn
so rapidly did the fire spread after It
was discovered. The ice house being
on the north side of the barn probably
was a great help in preventing the
fire reaching the buildings on Main
street. Mr.. Wyman's loss is in the
~neighborhood of $500, with an insur-
ance of 5000 or the barn.-Bruce Her.

The past winter proved remarkable
in more ways than one. 1t came late,
left early, but was all winter while
here. Not the least remarkable is
the fact though intensely cold vegeta-
ton that ordinarily would not stand
the frost came through the winter un.
injured. Jim Green found the carrots
left in his garden last fa'l alive and
growing while the potatoes were all
uninjured by frost. Such instances
are rare in the north and are due as
much to the absence of freezing and
thawing both fall and spring as to
the covering snow.

Decline OI thG
 Drink Habit

If the prohibitionists don't look out, the drink problem will be solved by natural economic forces before they get a chance to solve it by their device of prohibitory laws.
 There are a great many hon est thinkers, too, who believe that the drink problem Is more likely to be solved through the growth of temperance from nor al and economic impulses than it is by passing laws prohibiting She sale of liquor.
 It has become very evident in recent years that no man, no matter what his position, can keep up the pace of modern competition and divide his time and attention between his work and drinking.
 To engage successfully in any modern trade, profession or business a man needs clear head, firm nerves and good health-and the use Of intoXicat- ing liquors robs him of all these things
 Employers, having recognized that they couldn't keep up the pace and stay in the game when drinking robbed them of time and strength, more and more tend to draw the line strictly against employees who drink Practically all of the railroads nowadays have strict rules against drinking, and these rules are rigidly enforced. There was a time, not so many years ago, when railroad men were noted drinkers Now, the drinking railroad man is the exception.
 The commercial traveller used to be Ca hail fellow, well met, " one whose duties it was to buy drinks for his customers-per- haps to get drunk with them That custom has passed out of existence. The typical commer- cial traveller nowadays is not a drinking nan-not only because he can't drink and keep his health and efficiency, but because he can't drink and make good. J Customers buy of sober men and wholesalers no longer employ "rounders" as commercial trav elers if they know it.
 These changes are typical of all branches of business and in dustry. The demand is for sober, clear headed and healthy men. Men who keep their nerves wrecked and their health shat tered by drinking soon fall be hind in the race. The pressure of economic necessity is proving mighty force for temperance and sobriety.
