MAY WlRTH IS
HELD ABROAD

ST. PAUL, Aug. 20.-The war Of
the nations in Europe has robbed the
Minnesota State Fair of one of its
leading vaudeville features.
May Wirth, known as the greatest
lady bareback rider in the world, is
marooned in Europe. Although she
was expected to sail for American two
weeks ago, in order to appear at the
fair Sept. z to IL, not word had
been heard from her since the war
broke out until today. This morning
word was received at Chicago that her
horses, which are worth thousands of
dollars, had been confiscated by the
German government, and that she
would be compelled to cancel her en-
gagement at the Minnesota fair.
Miss Wirth, the only woman who
has ever turned triple flip on horse
back, was just finishing a prolonged
tour of Europe, having appeared in
the principal theatres of Berlin, St.
Petersburg, Paris and London. She
was to have been paid $1,000 by the
fair. Several high-priced foreign
vaudeville acts are being considered as
substitutes. It is probable that the
Five Gargonis, Partisan act, will be
taeeapte6. -:

HIBBING, Aug. 2O.-Flames orig
mating from bonfire started by two
small boys caused a $4,000 loss here
yesterday afternoon when the Bar
rett livery barn, 102 Second avenue
north, was completely wiped out. The
home of w. G.. Barrett, owner of the
destroyed livery, which stands nearby,
caught fire along with six other dwell
ings; but all of them were saved after
being scorched.
Two we'll known Hibbing horses,
EBAY Dan," owned by Mr.. Barrett
and Major" a private driving horse
owned by DR.. H. R. Weirick, together
with four livery horses were destroyed
iii the flames. "Major" was taken
from the burning stable in seriously
burned condition and had to be shot.
This horse was brought to Hibbing
from Duluth and was one of team OF
$1,000 drivers owned by A. B. Wolvin
of the Zenith City. He was a hard
some creature and greatly admired by
horsemen.
Several speedy race horses, among
them Sammy Slope, owned by George
Mason, were quartered in the Barret
stable up till few days ago.
Fire Chief McIllargey stated this
morning that two small boys started
a bonfire in a garage, adjoining the
destroyed barn, yesterday afternoon
about 2:15 o'clock. Sparks from this
blaze ignited straw and chaff in the
Barrett livery. The flames spread
rapidly and for time it looked as if
the entire block of dwellings would be
wiped out.

MAY NOW STUDY
USES OF PEAT

DULUTH, Aug. 20.-St. Louis
county land owners will have a
good opportunity to study peat and
peat fuel production from every
angle at the eighth annual convention
of the American Peat society, which
opened a three-day session at the
Commercial club here this morning
One of the most instructive features
of the convention will be the exhibit
at the Commercial club lobby, a par
of which is already on display.
The collection of peat products
brought by Carl G.. Kleinstuck Of
Kalamazoo, Mich., vice president OF
the society, which he brought with
him, is now on display. This is one o.
the best collections that will be
brought to- the convention and in
cludes products from nearly every i'm
portant peat bog in the world. II
also includes various peat products
with explanations as to their use and
cost.
Mr.. Kleinstuck has travelled exten-
sively in his study of peat, and also is
a manufacturer of peat products. II
his collection are peat products from
Germany, Sweden, Ontario, and from
many states in this country including
New York, Florida, Carolinas, Vir.
ginia, the Rocky mountains, and Min.
nesota.
There are various uses for peat pro
ducts aside from fuel purposes. Peat
null is used quite extensively as
stock food and in Paris peat carpets
are manufactured. Peat paper is
quite common, and is made from peat
and wood pulp. Peat moss is import
ed from Germany and is used in large
cities for stable bedding. 1t makes an
excellent bed for stock and is said to
be inexpensive.
| In addition to a peat exhibition Mr..
Kleinstuck has large collection. of
relics found in bogs Of Michigan. Ar
row heads, stones of many kinds,
skulls of mound builders and animals
are included.
With the coming of more delegates
it is expected that the exhibit will
take on large proportions, showing. a
wide diversity of products and max
ing one Of the most instructive col
lections ever shown. Duluth will have
it's first chance to get liberal educa-
ton on this important subject, which
vitality touches the future development
and value of Northern Ninneaots
lands.

KAISER PLANST0
THWART JAPAN
Expected to Cede Leased Terri
tory to Chinese Republic
Immediately.
(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS)

THE HAGUE, Aug. 20.-The Ger
man emperor is planning to checkmate
Japan. If possible, Japan's ultimatum
will be made ineffective. Germany
probably will voluntarily surrender to
China Germany's concessions on the
shan-Tung peninsula: In turning back
to the Chinese republic Kiao- Chow and
the German land and water leased ter
ritory, the kaiser is expected to en-
phasize that Germany has been an
economic force in the orient that has
made her improved conditions.
While definite DECISION. has not yet
been reached, a high German diplo-
mat declares that Germany is already
negotiating with China to turn back
to the oriental republic its leased ter
ritory.
There is the most intense indigna-
tion in German official circles over the
position assumed by Japan.
