Courage Returning.
Baudette, Mimi, Oct. 11.-Courage
and optimism are renewing their hold
on the settlers of the Rainy River re-
gion almost before danger from for
est fires that killed more than 100
persons and destroyed the homes OF
several thousands is past. Tonight
the fires seem to have spent their fury
and the homesteaders are planning
to begin anew. Many are cheerful IN
spite of the setback.
Relief is pouring in, and many are
tramping back over the railroad
through smouldering embers to their
farms.
Already plans have been laid for
a new and better Baudette and a bet
ter Spooner. Trainloads Of the pro-
visions and supplies are coming in
from many different sources.
Women and children are being
clothed with garments from the sup
ply tents. The quick response from
neighboring towns has enabled the re-
lief committee to feed all who applied.
Fifteen hundred meals we're served
at door tables today.
The ground having been burned
over in the danger zone, there is little
apprehension felt in this vicinity.

FRENCH GOVERNMENT
FACING BIG STRIKE
Employees of Northern Railroad Go
Out Quickly Followed by Those
of Western.

Paris, Oct 1.-THE French govern
ment is again facing a serious strike
situation. The employees of the North
ern railroad went on strike early to-
day and tonight the strike spread to
the Western railroad, which is owned
by the State. Indications are that to-
morrow will see a complete tieup in
northern aud western France.
The strike at the present time in
wolves about $4,000 men. The strike
on the Western road was voted this
evening by 5000 men employed in
Paris and the suburbs.
They count upon the national un-
ions to tie up the provinces. 1t is
reported that the movement may pos
sibly also extend to the Eastern and
the Paris, Lyons and Mediterranean
railroads.
As is usual in such circumstances
the city Of Paris is threatened with a
scarcity of food supplies. Freight and
mail and passenger transportation is
partially prostrated, and the vast
army Of working people in the north
west are unable to reach their places
of business.
Military engineers are taking the
places of the strikers and troops are
guarding various stations and impor-
tant sections of the roads. Large mill
tary forces were hastily distributed
on the first evidence that strike had
been declared, and additional troops
were ordered out tonight.
The government has decided upon
an important step in an attempt to
break the strike on the Northern rail-
way. The official journal published
a decree calling to the colors about
10000 employees of the Northern road.
This Immediately subjects the men to
military discipline.

the history of West Tampa when Sal
Vator MARITIME, an Italian saloonist,
went to his death at the hands of an
assassin, who ambushed him in a
lonely spot. The same degree of mys-
terry that has surrounded former trag-
edies in the Italian colony surrounds
this tragic event. Martino's body was
riddled with two loads of buckshot
and slugs, and death came quick.
No cause for the tragedy can be as
signed, but it was evident that Mar
tino was expecting assassination. for
he was armed when shot. Doubtless
threats had been made against his
life which he would not reveal TIE
belief is that he was decoyed to the
lonely spot by a letter or telephone
message. Every possible effort IS 70
ing made by the officers to clear up
the mystery and bring the assassin to
justice.
