A $4,000 BLAZE.
Half Block of Business Buildings
Destroyed.

Rochester - Rochester was visited
by a disastrous fire early Sunday
morning that totally destroyed a half
block of business buildings and for a
time threatened to wipe out the entire
section of that district. The loss will
reach $4,000 or more. C. D. Brown,
president of the city council, was the
heaviest loser, his hack and livery
equipment and his auto garage being
destroyed. The w. l.. Bailey black
smith shop and Barber's paint works
were burned to the ground
Twenty-Five horses were burned to
death, four of which belonged to pri-
vate parties and Is to Mr.. Brown, in
Guiding Alphonso, a racer well known
on southern Minnesota tracks.
Ed Parker, an employee of the barn,
slept while the fire was raging and
barely escaped with his life. The fire
had gained terrific Roadway before be-
ing discovered, making it impossible to
free the animals in the barn, where
the confiagration was at it's worst. AS
soon as it was known that the horses
were doomed, many of the beasts that
could be reached were shot to death.
While battling with the flames, Fire
Chief John Boylhart met with serious
Injury when a nozzle on a hose line
broke, striking him in the side. He
was quickly removed to his home,
where it was found three ribs were
broken and he may have suffered In

ILL FROM MOCK LYNcHING
Prisoner Of Wisconsin Sheriff Con-
fesses After Having Rope Put
Around His Neck.

Kenosha, Wis.-Andrew F. Stabl,
sheriff of Kenosha county, staged
mock lynching near Salem the other
day, with the object Of frightening
Wiley Davie, negro, to confess steal
ing shotgun. His plan was success
full but the negro is now in jail, suffer
ing from nervous prostration.
The gun was taken from Fred A.
Sharp of Kenosha. He had been hunt
ing, and was asleep in field when the
negro passed. He told a hard luck
story, and Sharp gave him dollar.
Then Sharp went to sleep again, and
the negro returned and stole the
gun.
Sharp awoke, missed the gun and
suspected the negro. Davie was cap
tured. He did not have the gun with
him, however, and protested that he
had not stolen it. The sheriff believed
the negro was lying and decided on
mock lynching scheme as a means
of making him confess.
Several farmers surrounded the pris-
oner, and the sheriff told him he had
better confess. Then one of the farm
ers got rope. 1t was thrown over
the prisoners neck, and he was being
marched toward a tree when he sud.
denly halted and called out.
Don't hang me, men; I'll tell where
the gun is"
The rope was taken from his neck,
and he led the sheriH to a nearby
swamp where the gun was found hid.

boys, and am much obliged to you for
helping it out" was the only comment
Of the sheriff, as he tucked the negro
into the automobile and started for
Kenosha.
Davie believes that the mock lynch
ing was bona fide uprising Of the
farmers against the black race.

PENSIONS FOR LIFE.
Winona Sets A-foot Movement in Be-
half of Teachers.

Winona, Minn.-A pretentious move
ment looking to the securing of a
pension system for the teachers of
Minnesota was launched in Winona
with the organization of a local as
ISOLATION. Three cities already have
adopted systems now in working or
der. The plan here is Immediately to
adopt a draft of bill to go before
the coming session of the Legislature,
asking for state aid.
Already hundreds of teachers in the
different sections of Minnesota, out
side of the three largest ones, have
been reached by the secretary and
there is said to be great enthusiasm
over the project. The plan is to adopt
the draft of a bill here, then submit
it to every city and village in the
state, and finally offsE it to all district
teachers meetings, asking favorable
resolutions.
Twenty-Five years in the service will
entitle the teachers to a pension. The
annual dues will be paid and the state
will be asked to supply the deficiency.
Eventually, when the organization be-
comes strong enough, it is the plan to
ask the three largest cities of the
state to enter, but that would be i'm
possible until the association is in bet
ter financial shape.

but the automobile, driven by Mrs.
Rogers, closed the gap in about three
minutes. Mrs. Rogers kept her rum
about we'll up with the horse for a
mile, as she was unable to pass it with
the milk wagon in front of her swing
ing from side to side of the road. She
warned the child il the wagon not to
jump and kept footing the horn of her
automobile loudly, for all vehicles to
clear the way.
John Logan, young farmer, heard
the warning in time to drive his con-
yeyance out of the road. He also
seized horse blanket from his buggy
and stood in the road waiting the ap-
preaching runaway. By lucky throw
he managed to cast the blanket over
the horses head. The blinded animal
slackened it's speed to such an extent
that Mrs. Rogers was able to run her
automobile alongside the milk wagon
while Policeman Ramsey leaned out
and caught the child safely in his arms
as she jumped from the door,
The horse brought up head-on
against fence and was captured. The
wagon was owned by S. P. Nevius, a
milkman. The horse sprang away from
Nevius just after he had united it, and
bolted down the street. Mrs. Rogers
is known as one of the most daring
woman automobile drivers in this sec
ton.

Minnea polis.-Two bold robbers,
by ruse, secured 173 500 line pay
checks, valued at about $4,000 from
Oscar Christianson, a messenger boy
for the road, visited dozen depart
ment stores and other places of bust
ness and cashed about 20 of them,
valued conservatively at $4,000, with

BoIdest Theft of Northwest.
In many respects, police officials de-
clare, the theft, and the work of cash
ing the checks after forging indorse-
ments, make one of the boldest pieces
Of work in the history of Northwest
crime. For half hour after the po-
lice had learned of the theft, and de-
tailed detectives on it, in at least two
cases, while the business places were
being notified, the men worked. After
several narrow escapes from detection
they disappeared from the downtown
district, their hands loaded with pack
IL.
Ten detectives, with the serial num-
bers of the missing checks, were then
securing the town for them
Police Lack Descriptions.
Despite their efforts, the police had
nothing to work on except a variety
of descriptions of the pair who cashed
the checks, and a dozen pieces of
crinkled green paper, for which the
robbers had been paid face value.
The 500 officials, Minneapolis banks,
and the police department united,
soon after the robbery, in notifying
downtown business places of the miss
ing checks. The notifications, in
many cases, came too late.
Turning abruptly to the other ex-
treme, after knowledge of the robbery
had become general, business men
caused an endless amount of trouble
to more than 1000 500 line employees
with good checks they desired cashed.
The stolen checks were those to be
used in paying off the comparatively
few employees of the road at the freight
station. Two thousand men employed
at the Shoreham shops, invaded the
downtown district with good checks
they desired cashed and everywhere
they met with chilly reception.
Many Merchants Anxious.
At police headquarters, several Of
ficials were kept busy answering tele-
phone queries of anxious business men
who had had the matter of cashing
500 check put up to them Checks
not bearing the serial numbers of any
of the missing ones, generally were
cashed. Many of the employees, how
ever, were forced to go home with
their monthly wage still on the COM
pany's paper.
According to Oscar Christianson, the
messenger boy, one of the pair later
seen in downtown stores approached
him as he was carrying the package
of checks from the general 500 offices
to the freight station. The stranger
told the boy he was from the paymas-
ter's Office. He said he had been sent
to take the checks back to the general
Offices, as the Endorsement of some Of
fetal had been omitted. The boy
readily gave up the checks, and the
stranger boarded passing car.
