NOMINAL LOSS IN MINNESOTA
Recent Fires Have Caused No Seri-
Gus DAMAGE.

International Falls, Minn., July A.
Reports from Canadian sources have
greatly exaggerated the amount OF
loss by the forests on the American
side of the boundary, as the loss has
been nominal. Fires are numerous,
but the loss to standing timber has
been small A million feet of logs
owned by the Backus- Brooks interests
were burned on sideways at Orth, but
aside from that there has been small
loss to timber. Settlers and rangers
are on the alert and have done splen-
did work, as shown by the small
losses.
On the Canadian side of the bound
airy, to the east and west of Fort
Frances, the losses in timber and vii
lagos will amount to at least $4,000
900. The smoke from the fires has at
times obscured the sun.

Lord favorable report concerning
the character of Jacob Stroll the cler.
gyman has been made defendant in a
$4,000 damage suit brought by Stroll.
Fisher and Stroll had differences
growing out of the merger of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church with the
Neoga Presbyterian church. The other
day, following a funeral at which Mr.
Fisher officiated, they met to effect a
reconciliation.
The meeting opened with prayer by
Stroll in which he asked the Lord
with emphasis, to give the minister
more grace. Then Fisher prayed, in,

have him cease backbiting."
You'd better make another prayer

was excellent and that each OF the
signers would lend him s1O0 withou,

CHIEF JUSTICE
FULLER is DEAD
Venerable Jurist Expires
Suddenly in Maine.
HAD BEEN In GOOD HEALTH

Although seventy-eieht Years of Age
the Death of the Chief Justice Was
Wholly Unexpected and There Were
No Premonitions of the End-Ranks

Presiding Officer of Court.
Bar Harbor, Me, July 5.-Chief JUS
tice Melville Weston Fuller of the

heart failure at his summer home in
Sorrento.
The death of the chief justice was
entirely unexpected, as he had been in
apparently good health lately and
there had been no premonitory symp-
toms of any kind of trouble. Sunday
he attended church as usual and when
he retired at night he was to all ap-
pearances in his customary health.
Death came about 6 o'clock In the
morning. His daughter, Mrs. Nathan
lei Francis, and Rev. James e. Free
man, who was a guest of Justice Full
ler at his Sorrento cottage, Main
stay" were with the jurist when he
died.
The funeral services will be held at
Sorrento and the interment will be at
Chicago

enty y-eighth year

had spent his summers at Sorrento, a
summer colony located on French
Mans bay, five miles from Bar Harbor.
Third in Length of Service.
To Chief Justice Fuller fell the
honor of third rank for length of serv-
ice as presiding justice in the highest
tribunal of the American government.
For twenty-five years he was chief
Justice of the supreme court of the
shall presided over the court for thir-
ty-four years and Chief Justice Taney

The nomination of Mr.. Fuller as
chief justice was followed by a
memorable contest in the senate.
The judiciary committee, with its
Republican majority, to which the
nomination was sent April 80, held up
the appointment until July 20. Then
the committee reported 1t to the sen
ate without recommendation For
three hours that body debated in ex-
ecutiye session whether to confirm or
reject the nomination. The attack on
Mr.. Fuller was led by Senators Ed
munds, Evarts and Stewart Sena
tors Cullom and Farwel defended him
The reports that he had been "cop
perhead" during the Civil war and that
he did not possess the requisite ability
as lawyer were gone over.
Finally, by vote of al to 80, his
nomination was confirmed. Through
out his service Justice Fuller was
noted for the dignity with which he
filed the position. Although small oi
stature, not more than five feet seven
inches, his wealth of silvery hair and
classic features made him command
Ing figure wherever he appeared.
