FOREST FIRES ARE RAGING.
Losses to Timber Interests will be
Appalling.

Wausau, Wis, July 21.-Losses
from forest fires in the district north
and east of here continues and
every hour brings reports of new
country invaded. There is no stem
ming the process of the flames which
are sweeping large portion of
Northern Wisconsin. So far the
only village burned is Heinemann,
but Irma, Gleason and Bloomville
are in imminent danger. The 400
inhabitants of Heinemann are still
at Gleason crowding the little vii
lage, and these will be taken out by
train tonight, if the fires come
nearer. The destruction this morn
ing of the Huntington forest reserve
near Kelly is serious loss to the
State, the timber being choice. The
loss is half million. The town of
Aniwa did not burn as reported, the
loss being confined to saw mill at
Washburn Siding, near Aniwa, loss
$4,000. Light rain fell at noon,
but not enough to do any good. The
Heinemann Lumber Company's mill
burned at Heinemann, April 4, and
now loses every vestige of property
there, loss over 100000. Refugees
from Heinemann say the entire town
burned at once, flames jumping two
hundred feet and enyeloping every
house but two. All inhabitants, how
ever. had been taken to Gleason two
hours previous and no lives were
lost.

InlitatOrS.

There are three kinds of workers,
and only three, in this world. They
are the pullers-down, the builders-up,
and the imitators. The first are the
most successful, the second are the
most self-sacrifcing, but the last are
the most numerous. They make no
beaten tracks, for they take their
feet up and put them carefully down,
in the exact steps of their predeces-
sors. They will not go where others
have not been. The ghosts of the
dead and the spectres of greatness
are always before them. Authority
is god whom they worship with de-
vout superstition. They say their
prayers with awe-stricken regularity
before the shrine of antiquated error
and time-honored falsehoods. The
king of men and gods is ''He said so"
1t would kill them like dose of
arsenic to take dose of originality.
LII luSll 1oSIC, IL muSI UC 116AI,
follows from the premise, 1T has long
been believed" History is argument,
fashion authority, and the grand
work of life is to please the world.
In walk and carriage, dress and table,
in reading and praying, and at last
in dying and being buried, they Sc
riously follow what others have done.
They are happy in service and joyful
in slavery 1t is a melancholy fact
that most teachers are imitators. They
come in flocks from normal schools,
in great numbers from institutions
and in thousands from our education
al meetings. They are anxious en-
quirers after others doings, and will
ingly follow any educated goat that
boldly leads the way, always with
note book in hand, asking, do tell
me exactly how you teach!'

PLANNED TO ESCAPE JAIL.
Attempt to Break Out of Peniten-
tiary ThWarted.

Columbia, July 22.-What may
have been a concerted plot on the part
of prisoners of the State penitentiary
to escape was thwarted yesterday by
the authorities when steel files were
found in the cells of certain prison
ers. One of the men is said to have
given the plan away and the guards
were able to head off the would-be
escapes. AS a result of the finding
of the files and other things, such as
cigarettes, in the cells OF prisoners,
twenty-five men met with the usual
punishment.
The story leaked out late tonight,
it so happening that the News and
Courier correspondent stumbled
upon some of the facts in the matter.
No verifcation of details could be
had at the State prison. 1t is be-
lieved that the files were brought to
some of the prisoners by a man or
by men driving to the prison with
supplies or carrying bundles to the
hoistery mill. However, there was
no direct clue to the finding of the
guilty person or persons involved in
this affair. Although no direct con-
frmation is possible of this phase
the possibility that the safe-blowers
in the prison were back of the whole
scheme is strongly intimated. The
assumption is based on the general
custom that these men very often
use others as their tools" The men
in whose cells the steel files were
found were not in nearly every case
as dangerous prisoners as the safe
blowers. It has been the history OF
the prison that those more dangerous
prisoners who escape frequently take
with them some prisoner of Tighter
hue" for protection and aid. The
finding of the cigarettes in cells,
having been brought in against the
rules of the prison, caused the pun
ishment of some of the men, but
the graver offence of secreting the
files caused some CONSERVATION
among the officials. The name of the
one or ones suspected with bringing
in the files could not be learned to-
night; in fact, no information was
obtained at the prison as to the de-
tails of the matter.

1t may be unsafe to drink too
much water at meals, but it is not
unsafe to yield to appetite and

the habit so as to increase your ca

of water, inside and out, should be

So, 500 FEE TO WOMAN LAWYER.
Largest Ever Granted a Female At.
torney in America.

Chicago, July 17.-Mrs. Mary E..
Miller, woman lawyer, won decided
victory before Judge Gibbons in the
circuit court yesterday, when, after
celebrating an hour and a half, the
jury that has heard her suit for $780,
900 attorney fees against the three
Lloyd brothers, grandsons and heirs
of John Bross, once lieutenant-gov-
ernor of Illinois, voted for verdict
of S32,500. This is the largest fee
ever granted a woman lawyer IN
America. Ihe case has been on trial
for nearly three weeks, and argu-
ments were completed yesterday.
Mrs. Miller was retained by the
Lloyd brothers to conserve and pro-
tect their youngest brother, John
Bross Lloyd, of Boston, who was sup
posed to be under the control of a
designing woman known as the
"college widow Attorney Henry
Scott, representing the brothers, de-
clared in his argument that John
Bross Lloyd is still with the woman.
Mrs Miller contended that John
Bross Lloyd, while student at Har-
ward had became enamorted of a
woman and had conveyed several
hundred thousand dollars to her.
The lawyer said she recovered much
Of this property and kept him from
squandering much more. Mrs. Mil
ler also showed that she had admin
istered the affairs of the estate in a
business-like manner and that the
property had increased in value dur
ing her administration. Several
leading members of the Chicago bar
testified that her charge of $4,000
for legal services against the estate
was reasonable and fair.
Judge Gibbons, in instructing the
jury, ordered that Mrs. Miller should
receive the same consideration as a
man. eff she performed valuable
services for her clients" said he
Judge, "she is worthy of her hire. y

What the Rat Has Cost in Human
Lives.

For one of the most terrible of all
diseases the rat is now certainly
known to be responsible; the bu-
bonic plague, or "black DEATH" No
scourage of mankind is more dread
full than this. 1t was Staying the
Egyptians at the beginning Of record
ed history; single epidemic cost
Athens third of her citizens. At
Lyons, in 1872, the pestilence killed
fifty thousand persons; Venice in
1876 lost seventy thousand. During
the Great Plague of London, in 1865,
68,596 died, out Of population Of
100000, and the dead lay in the
streets because the living were too
few to bury them.
Even as late as It'll an epidemic
of the bubonic plague cost Moscow
nearly a fourth of it's quarter mil
lion souls. But, after the last Par
THAN arrow, the disease retired to
India and the region westward to-
ward the Mediterranean, which seems
to have been it's original home; and
after 1850 Europe and Africa were
free.
It broke out again in 1894 from
peculiarly virulent strain that had
it's habitat in certain districts of
northern China. The army supply
trains carried the rats and the rats
carried the bacillus pestis from the
Manchurian frontier to the sea. From
there it made its way back by junks
to Canton, where between March
and August of 1894, it killed up
wards of one hundred thousand per-
sons. Thence the Chinese strain of
the plague bacillus passed by ship
to Bombay and diffused itself
through India. Five million persons
died of the pestilence in India dur
ing the six years that ended with
1908, and it was only with 1909 that
the annual mortality fell below two
hundred thousand.
Before it was discovered that
quarantine must include rats as we'll
as men, this new Indo-Chinese
strain had spent over the whole civil
lized world.-McClure's Magazine.

Assistant District Attorney Jack

LEADERS OF
DEMOCRACY HOLD
Big POW WOW
MANY NOTABLES ATTEND A Sc.
CRET CONFERENCE AT RE-
NO TUESDAY NIGHT.

A sensation, one of the real kind,
such as were produced years ago
by the politicians of the old school,
is expected today, for, according to
reports that were waited down
from Reno and Carson, there is
something in the wind among the
democratic cohorts.
For there copyrighted in Reno
Tuesday night quite an array of
talent, among whom were noticed
George A. Bartlett, democratic con-
gresham; Jimmie Sweeney, demo-
cratic supreme Judge; F. H. Nor
cross, also democratic supreme
judge; Denver S. Dickerson, demo-
cratic acting and lieutenant COVER
nor; George Thatcher, democratic
politician from Nye county; Charles
s. Sprague, democratic newspaper
man from Goldfield and also a
member of the democratic banking
board, appointed by the democratic
acting and lieutenant governor.
And then comes the real startling
news that this noted assemblage
was Joined by Sam Platt, repub-
lican United States district attor-
ney, but 1t may prove to be that
Sam was only in town looking aft
er other business and did not asso-
ciate with the democrats.
Carson was reported completely
deserted as far as democratic poll
ticians were concerned, with the
exception of James Finch, chief
secretary for the acting governor,
who was left to hold down the
lid during the absence of the chief
executive. He was to have been
assisted by Attorney General Stod-
! dard, State Treasurer Ryan and
Secretary of State Douglass, but
these gentlemen could not get away
from their homes in different out
side cities and consequently an
nounced that Carson would not be
graced with their presence until
the next monthly payday.
From the gathering, which is a
noted one in many ways, there APP
pears to be something of great i'm
portance in the wind. Hardly any
two of the gang are on speaking
J terms, which is not at all surpris-
ing. Dickerson, Bartlett and sew
eral others are out for the govern
orship. according to reports, and
war between prospective candidates
is only natural. Sweeney has the
senatorial bee buzzing around his
cute little skull, while Sprague
does not know what he wants. The
bad blood between Sweeney and
Denver is of long standing and If
they have snapped kisses it is the
