ABSINTHE

Absinthe LIQUOR is now prohibited
in three European countries. Bel
GUM, Holland and Switzerland, says
the Alliance Temperance Monthly.
The dangers Of absinthe were early
known and denounced, but il is only
in recent years that thought has been
given to prohibiting the liquor To
Belgium belongs the honor of taking
the lead. In 1905 its lower house voted
the prohibition, which one year later
was ratified by the upper chamber.
As absinthe was drunk in only few
great cities. the prohibition in Bel
GUM has rather the character OF a
preventive measure The temper

Wholesale District Threatened With
Destruction.
Fire caused a loss of 100000 or
more and at times threatened Duluth's
entire wholesale district and only hard
fighting on the part of the fire depart
ment, assisted by three fire tugs, pre-
vented further destruction. For time
the main building of the Gowan-Pey-
ton-Congdon company was threatened,
as the warehouse adjoining it was all
ablaze
The fire started between the ware
company and that of the F. A. Patrick
company. The scattering brands of
the fire spread rapidly. It extended
south to the end of the dock and
wiped out everything in sight. The
block across the slip also caught fire.
The work of the f1remen had to be
directed in nearly every direction, a
everything was dry as tinder. Bill
boards and refuse soon took fire and
many smoldering piles had to be
watched.
What caused the fire has not been
learned, but from the warehouses in
which it started it spread rapidly.
From there it went to the residence of
Captain Magee, then to the store of
the Duluth Marine Supply company
and on to the building occupied by
the Lake Carriers association, clean
ing out everything and leaving moth
ing but a wake of ashes.
On reaching the end of the dock the
fire swept over to the yards of the

boxes.

CRIME CONSPIRACY ALLEGED
Arrests Follow Deaths of Minneapolis
Policeman and Bandit.

Two arrests were made by the Min
neapolis police following close upon
the duel to death between Jerry Nc
Carty, noted bandit, and Patrolman
J. J. Ollinger, which the authorities
say revealed a plot to plunder which
included bank robberies, holduD
schemes and other crimes.
Arthur y. benson, poolroom prOprie-
tor, soon after the shooting, is said to
have made a complete confession to
the police, naming Fred Briggs, cigar
broker, leader of the gang and Nc
Carty the active operator.
benson told the police, it is said,
he furnished the automobile for the
operations and received his share of
the robberies for his part of the game.
Briggs appeared at the Minneapolis
central station, not knowing that Den
son had confessed, and was arrested.
Briggs is we'll known about the
Twin Cities. He was connected with
the Ames administration in Minneap-
oils several years ago and was at one
time sent toGthe Workhouse for operat-
ing gambling machines.
He denied emphatically having any
connection with McCarty or anyone
else in McCarty's criminal career,
though he said he had aided McCar-
ty when the latter escaped from Still.
