BIG NHITEFIELD DRAIN.
Viewers Begin Work on the Great
Drainage System South of City.

Messrs. Alfred j. Smithson of
Roseville, Edward NJ. Stanford of
Willmar and John G. Flann Of Lake
Lillian started out last Monday on
the work Of viewing the new White
field drainage proposition. j Z This ditch
if established, will be the largest
drainage enterprise yet undertaken
in Kandiyohi county, The petitions
asked for the location Of nearly Sc
miles Of drainage, large portion of
which is to be tiled. The cost, it is
believed, will reach as high as $780,
600. While this seems a great ex-
penditure of money, still if it will
provide an adequate outlet for tiling
the lands Of the large section Of ter
ritory through which the ditch will
run, it will be a good investment, as it
will enhance the value Of the farms
to a great extent.

BARN FIRED BY LIGHTNING.
Carl h0Iseth's Barn Struck by LiQht.
ming and Burned With Contents.

In the severe electrical storm which
occurred Tuesday evening, Aug. Is,
the barn on the farm Of Carl Holseth
in Sec. 16, Town of Dovre, was struck
by lightning and instantly was envel-
oped in flames. Mr.. dolseth had just
taken out six horses to water and
concluded to allow them freedom of
the yard while he was eating supper.
He had no sooner come into the house
before the lightning struck the barn
and it began to burn. Even the har-
ness hanging inside Of the door could
not be reached. Three sets Of har-
ness, two small calves, and quite a
lot Of hay burned. A new wagon with
a hayrack stood alongside the barn,
and was saved with difficulty. A
threshing crew on a neighboring place
saw the lightning strike the barn and
came right over, but nothing could
be done to save the building. The
barn was insured for $400 in the
Dovre & Mamre Insurance company.
$50 was allowed for the harness; $50
for the hay and $40 for the calves.
This is a. serious loss to Mr.. Holseth,
and he has the sympathy Of his
neighbors. ..~:..t.. .

mer at the Interlachen Hotel on
Green Lake ever since it was opened
as a hostelry. He was a man Of
about 81 years Of age.
just what might have been the
real cause Of the mans rash act is
not known here. 1t is alleged that
family arrangements lay at the bot
tom Of his troubles, also that he was
in hard financial straits and that he
had been drinking heavily. Probably
all of these reasons had contributed
to his condition. Evidently he was
a nervous wreck who had long put
up fight against that evil, insiduous
and hypnotic thought Of suicide and
when the last little financial trouble
arose he was too weak to withstand
any longer. It was "the last straw"
His support gave way and he yielded
to the temptation Of taking his own
life. One thing that might be taken
as an indication that he had strug-
gled for sometime, is the fact that
about week previous he had bought
a quarter pound Of the same poison
at the same store. What he had
done with it no one knows.

$4,000 FIRE AT HARRISON.
Creamery Store Owned by F. C. Wat
kins Burned Last NiQht.

The store at Harrison creamery
burned to the ground last night. It
was owned by +. c.. Watkins. The
loss on the building is estimated at
$500 and the loss on the stock at
$4,000. The amount Of the insur-
ance we have not been able to learn.
The origin Of the fire is mystery but
is supposed to have started in the
store room. Mr.. Watkins lives in the
Albert E. Dahl residence near by and
was not in the store when the fire
started.

A LIVELY RUNAWAY i.
Farmers Team Furnished Excite
ment. Dumps Wood in Front
of Hotel.

One Of the several exciting occur
ances which transpired in our city
Thursday Of last week was furnished
by the fine young farm team Of Axel
Leverenz Of the Town Of Roseland.
They were standing on the corner, by
the CA. Nelson jewelry store when
they became frightened by a passing
bicycle and not being securely tied
jerked themselves loose and started
down Pacific avenue. The wagon was
loaded with a double box full Of stove
wood and as the team swung south
on Fourth street they emptied the
wood neatly in front Of the Merch-
ants hotel, breaking loose from the
rig and leaving the truck con it's
back They narrowly escaped
smashing into one Of the three auto
mobiles lined up abreast in front Of
the Willmar Land company's Office.
Down Fourth street they continued
at a fierce gait until they collided
with the anchor wire to telephone
post in front Of the M. D. Manning
residence where one Of the horses
fell to the sidewalk and the team was
caught. No very great damage was
done, however, either to the horses
or to the wagon, and as no one was
on the wagon at the time it started,
no one was hurt.
While Mr.. Leverenz was chasing
his team and taking them to a livery
barn, the crowd Of spectators got
busy and worked up a little agree
able surprise on him. They tipped
his wagon right side up; lifted on the
wagon box; and, by throwing in
few sticks apiece, soon had the load
Of wood, with the. spring seat and
family supplies, back in place. Mr..
Leverenz wanted to treat, but was
told that there were so many had a
hand in the deal that the cost Of a
treat to all would be more than the
original cost Of the wood.

BIG LE'VATOR /
PREY OF FLAMES
The Minnesota & Western Term.
inal Elevator Burned Last
Thursday Night.

The Minnesota & Western Elevator
Company's large elevator and clean
ing house at Willmar was totally de-
stroyed by fire last Thursday night
occasioning a loss Of not less than
$35, 1000, about $4,000 Of which was
covered by insurance.
Mr.. j.. F. Hodgson, the local agent,
and Mr.. 0. D. Christianson, the
Company's superintendent, were the
last to leave the building at 10
o'clock, having been in consultation
in the Office about the best plans
for handling the seasons business.
The state Of the crop this year prom
ised to furnish a good business for
this elevator as the black rust and
poor quality Of the wheat would
more largely require the use Of the
cleaning house. Plans had been
laid for cleaning not less than one
car a day Of outside wheat besides
taking care Of the local business.
The plans were short lived, however,
for less than an hour after these
gentlemen left the elevator the
switch engine gave the alarm and the
elevator was discovered to be in full
blaze. The fire company responded
promptly and did good work in saw
ing adjoining property. It was a
fierce fire while it lasted. The ele-
vator was the largest structure Of
that kind in the city and was Of great
height, and for that reason made a
very spectacular fire. Dozens of
houses in second ward caught fire
from the fire brands and great
many people assisted in putting out
these incipient fires. A farmer re-
ports good sized fire brand carried
three miles into the country. The en-
tire city and far out into the coun-
try was lighted up as light as day
and the heat from the burning build
ing was intense. All the adjoining
coal sheds owned by the company
were saved however. Five Of these
large bins had. just been filed with
coal for Che season s business. The
loss on the building proper is placed
at $50, 200. There were about 5000
bushels Of grain in the bins. There
was about $4,000 insurance on the
building and the loss on the grain
destroyed was quite fully covered by
insurance.
The plans Of the company for the
future are not fully developed. The
fuel business will be continued here
in charge Of Mr.. Hodgson, but it is
not likely that an attempt will be
made to rebuild the elevator this year
as it would be impossible to get it
ready for the seasons business.
After the fire a lunch was served
to the Fire Department at the Elk's
hall, and the fire laddies have re-
ceived many compliments for the
good work done. The elevator en-
ployed six men during the busy sea-
son and four men all year round.
The cause Of the fire is mystery
One theory advanced is that it caught
from the electric wiring.

A UNIFORM COLLEGE PIN.

| N movement has been launched at

designated for the state schcol a TN

the very evident advantage that 4,
