MARROW ESCAPE WHEN HORSES
FALI-BARTLETT HOME IS
SCENE OF BLAZE.

The home of Mr.. Bartlett on l4th
Street was completely destroyed by
fire this afternoon and but portion
Of his household goods saved. The
cause is attributed to a gasoline stove
that had just been lit in the kitchen.
The department made sensational run
that narrowly escaped disaster. While
the heavy hose cart was turning at
Seventh street one of the horses slipped
and fell and had it not been for the
presence of mind Of the driver the wag-
on might easily have been overturned.
The chemical was first brought into
play and the spread Of flames stopped
after which the hose was attached to the
Great Northern pipe and used to drown
out the blaze.
The house belonged to the 500 rail
road. The furniture was insured in
the Powell agency.

DEVILS LAKE CHAMPIONS LOST
CONTEST YESTERDAY AFTER
NOON BY SCORE OF II.
BOBBY MARSHALL HAD A GOOD
NIGHT S REST AND DREAMED
ABOUT THE UMPIRE.

They came back. A message from
Brother Johnsing must have brought
the result. Bobby Marshall must have
had good night IS rest for after lat
tie Of five games, the Colored Gophers
managed to get up enough courage to
take advantage Of few mistakes the
champions made and win the sixth and
final contest by score of 7 to /.
What got into the home boys the
first inning is hard to tell, but several
boots allowed four runs and the stuff
was off, for try as they would, the home
talenters could not get much past the
infeld and anything in the direction OF
short or third base was gobbled up
fast enough to elicit several double
plays and keep the crowd in good
humor.
Of course Devils Lake cannot be ex-
pected to win all the time, and as one
fan said yesterday. there would be
more interest in the games to come
when the people found out that the
Lakers were not invincible and that
there was always some team that could
turn the trick.
The score:

There are breakers ahead for the
North Dakota assessors in 1912 when
the first effect of the law requiring

party affiliations will be seen. This
law which has just gone into effect but
which does not becSm- operative until
next March, when the local assessors
take up their work, promises to give the
Kinds If trouble, as it is hardly to be
supposed that all voters will submit
tamely to prediction declaration OF
their party affiliations, especially when
such declaration must be made about
three months before the date set fol
the primary election.

County is Cheaper This Year

The expenses of running Ramsey
county during the past year have been
somewhat less than in previous years
and especially last year. and great cred
it is due County Auditor Bice and his

Jail, nearly $1,000 refund of primary
election fees, 5000 for election expen-
ses, $4,000 repairs on buildings and
grounds and $1,000 for refund of drain
age tax, bringing the expense for run
ming the county down to 100000, as
compared with $4,000 spent last year.
The county interest from July l, 1910
to July l, 1911 is 1865.

ing for all who can read and think.

beats the Grecian article dollars to
doughnuts.
A prevailing custom among those
soon to be discharged is to promise
gifts and the doing of errands, when
those SO promising have no idea of
keeping their W ord. These are
Greek gifts and are about as mean
and petty as can be conceived Of.

a Joyous Mystic :

Traherne stands, perhaps. not
quite SO high as Herbert, Vaughan,
and Crashaw as a singer; as q meta
physician and a mystic he ranks
higher; is more profoundly interest
ing, vital, and rewarding.
Centuries of Meditations is finer
as prose than the poems are as POI
etry. The prose has charming flu
idity and grace, and in the age in
which he wrote it must have been
distinguished for its natural ease and
simplicity. Set beside the prose Of
Milton, it immediately seems more
modern. The sentence rarely
reaches the stately, periodic march
of the Miltonic sentence. The style
is simpler than Sir Thomas Brownies
and is never as quaint ard curious
as his. One might more nearly
compare it with the prose of Sir
Isaac Walton or Gilbert White, hav-
ing something of the same straight
forward desire to impart thought.
The Centuries are written in a
blank book which was the gift of
lady whom Traherne evidently much
admired and loved. 1t consists of
five books, each of the first four
containing one hundred reflections,
usually about the length of a para
graph Of some twenty to fifty lines.
The first and least attractive book is
doctrinal. He tells the lady first
that an empty book is like an in
fant's soul, in which anything may
be written: He promises to try to
t fill it with those truths which the
lady loves but knows not;;" and the
mystic note is struck when he adds
in the second meditation: For
though it be a maxim Of schools that
there is no love Of thing unknown.
yet l have found that things un-
known have secret influence on
the soul, and like the center Of the
earth unseen violently attract it. -
