CRANK, COKER OR

WELL DRESSED STRANGER WooS
DON RUSSELL OF THE FIRST
NATIONAL WITHOUT RESULTS.

He was a very smooth article. He
blew into the city about two weeks
ago and proceeded to make himself
agreeable: he left rather suddenly
yesterday when he learned that the
police were looking for him, and the
last information received of him he
was kicking up the dust in large
clouds over the hill near Wilmington
park.
He gave his name as Clark when
he introduced himself to Don Russell
of the First National bank, and said
that he was a bridge inspector for
the Santa Fe. He also said that he
was expecting a check or draft for
81 900 from Los Angeles, Cal, that
would be handled through the First
National bank of this city. And for
the past few days he has kept the
telephone wires hot making inquiries
about the remittance. Finally he said
to Mr.. Russell that he had received
the money through Wells Fargo f.
press Co.. and as 1t would be neces-
sary for him to testify before the in
terstate commerce commission in a
day or two his company advised him
to hide out for time as they did not
desire his testimony to be given at
present.
He didn't hide out very far from
the electric lights, in fact, the hiding
place chosen by this "Dippy' indi-
vidual Is situated in the southeast
portion of the city near the septic
tanks, and from his haven of refuge
he would continue to let the bank
know that he was prepared to do
business with them if they would let
him.
As above mentioned the police were
notified and he hit the pike. He is
evidently a dope fiend" or else was
preparing to pull off some smooth
stunt that would annex a few dollars
to his bank roll, but the chances are
that he is the former and is at pres
ent dreaming dreams cd seeing vis-
ions in another city.

Estimated That at Least Fifty
Persons Lost Their Lives
in the Flames.
WALLACE PARTLY DESTROYED
Property Damage in Idaho City Viii!
Total $1,000, 900 Hundred and
Eighty Fire Fighters Missing.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 23.-The Pa
ciic Northwest is facing the most ter
rible forest fire situation in its his
tory. Over fifty persons are known to
be dead and 100 or more are missing
The list of injured will approximate
200. Half the town of Wallace is
swept clean and there is a possibility
that two or three more towns in the
district have suffered complete de-
struction. Half a dozen small towns
and villages are seriously threatened,
and their inhabitants are hurrying to
places of safety by the thousands.
The situation is most acute in the
Occur d'Alene district of Northern
Idaho. Reports from other parts of
the Northwest are of a less discourag.
ing nature.
Some of the fires have been con-
trolled, others are less threatening in
the absence of wind, while in some
districts the fire fighters have divert
ed the course of the flames from towns
that were threatened.
In Eastern Oregon, between Baker
City and La Grande, are several fires
which are doing serious damage to
live timber.
There are several fires in the Ump-
qua valley in Southern Oregon, but so
far they have not done any great dam
age. The fires in the neighborhood Of
Grants Pass, Ore, which became de-
cidedly threatening Sunday evening,
are for the time being under control.
In the vicinity of Medford and Ash
land, Ore, the fires are less menac-
ing, only because there is no wind. In
both these places all the men obtain
able have been drafted into service to
backfire and trench.
That the fires in Southern Oregon,
in many cases, are of incendiary origin
has been a matter of general gossip
in Medford for several days.
No hope of rain is yet given by the
United States weather bureau, the
prediction of the district forecaster for
two days being fair weather through
out Washington, Oregon and Idaho.

But ONEREDEEMlMG FEATURE
Cooler Weather Only Change in S'tua-
ton in Montana.

Helena, Ncnt, Aug. 24.-Cooler
weather is the only redeeming feature
Of the fire situation in Montana. Dense
smoke still is spreading over the state
and now extends as far east as Boze-
man and Lewiston and to the Cana
dian line on the north. Ashes are
falling, but fortunately they are dead,
otherwise the damage wrought would
be overwhelming.
The railroad situation is anything
but assuring, in fact grows worse with
succeeding reports, which tell OF
tracks and bridges being burned out
on the Northern Pacific, the Great
Northern and the Chicago. Milwaukee
and Puget Sound line.
A report from Bozeman says that
the fire in the Gallatin national forest
still is spreading in the direction Of
Yellowstone park and that unless rain
comes there will be little chance to
check it's progress. although more
than 200 men are trying to stay its
onward sweep.
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1910-08-26

flames until rain falls have been
abandoned.
The fire on Old Man creek and the
one on Selway, near Camp g., have
united and no further efforts will be
made to control them.
Antons, endangered by a forest fire
which broke out Sunday, has been
saved, and the fires on Craig noun
tain are partially under control, but
the situation there is still critical.
The forest fires have swept past
Wallace. The towns of the. Occur
d'Alene district have passed the first
stage of wild, unreasoning panic and
have settled down with more or less
composure to wait for the list of dead.
The list is constantly growing, as the
forest rangers, with red eyes and
blackened faces, penetrate the trails
now choked with fallen logs and bring
word of fire fighting crews cut off,
camps wiped out, ranchers and home
steaders caught in the path of the
flames and mountain towns left in
ashes.
Since the report of the Bullion mine
tragedy no new deaths have been re-
corded Forest Supervisor Weigl has
heard from practically all of his for
esters and expresses no alarm except
for the isolated gangs of fire fighters
cut off from communication.
Railroads Badly Crippled.
As fast as they can be assembled
bridge building crews will be rushed
to work. Hardly bridge in the whole
country around Wallace is left and the
Oregon Railroad and Navigation,
Northern Pacific and Chicago, Milwau-
kee and Puget Sound lines are Grip
pied to some extent. The burned dis
trict, generally speaking, extends east
to Missoula, north to the headwaters
of the St. Joe and in other directions
nobody knows how far. From the tops
of the hills everything as far as the
eye can see is swept bare. Until the
forest rangers report at headquarters
here there will be no accurate esti-
mate of the fires ravages.
Fear of contamination in the Wal
lace water supply has caused the wa
ter company to send men up Placer
creek and all it's feeders clearing
streams of dead fish and charred logs.
It is said that insurance on the build
ings destroyed here will total $780,
0OO Losses are still estimated at
about $1,O00,000.
The Wallace city council has ap-
pointed a committee to consider the
relief of the homeless. Offers of as
sistance have been received from
many sources, but none has been &C.
cepted.

Mrs. Reinhardt broke away from
her rescuers after they had borne her
from her burning home and rushed
back into the flames.
Ordered to Shoot Vanda|s.
Soldiers of the Twenty-fifth United
States infantry, colored, who are pa
trolling Wallace under the direction
of Mayor Hansen, have been given or
ders to shoot vandals, whose depreda-
tons have become serious
Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget
Sound trains through the burned dis
trict, which are carrying refugees, are
being furnished with guards of colored
soldiers.
Train No. of the Northern Pacific,
westbound, reached Spokane after an
exciting run through the flames at the
1daho-Montana border. Every car
was badly scorcEed.
flameS are threatening Newman
Lake, a summer resort twenty miles
east of Spokane. Ranches are being
burned in that vicinity and buildings
are being consumed
Liberty Lake, another summer re.
sort eighteen miles from Spokane, is
approached by fire from two sides.
Several cottages have been burned.
The St. Joe and St. Mary valleys,
In the heart of the richest timber belt
In the United States, are being swept
by flames and already 100 homestead
ers have been burned out. Five hum
dred men are fighting the blaze and

steam up ready to take the people to

Pittsburg. Feb. 3.-Willie Hope ran up a second block of 500 points to- night in his 1,500-point championship 1S-2 balk-line billiard match with ora Morningstar. but the latter was close on his heels with 495. The total score now stands: Hoppe 1000, Morning star s07.
 The contest was a brilliant one Hoppe ran out his 300 in 19 innings for an average of 26 6-19, while Morn lngstars 495 was made in IS innings with an average of 27 9-1S
 At the start, Hoppe got the baIs gathered by a beautiful twice aroup I the table drive, and proceeded to col feet 45 points before missing a cushion caron.
 The balls were left in good position for Morningstar. who was in rare form. Masses and force follows faultlessly executed enabled him to get the balls under control and he created a stir by making a run of 113 before falling down on a cushion shot
 -Hoppe showed fine form in his tenth inning by digging out III points from all portions of the table. He executed some fine open shots and position drives along with marvellous two-raiI masse played perfectly and a fine. re- verse English followed.
