THE MEVOY SCHOOL.

The purpose of the McEvoy course
this term is to secure mastery. OF es-
sentials. not simply TO show how to
work. This mastery involves knowing
what TO study, how to study, how TO
interpret questions. how to organlze,
knowledge quickly and efficiently, and
how 10 write answers that satisfy critI-
cal examiners. These desirable habits
may not become effectual IN one term
but they can be safely initiated during
these four months. Under this plan of
direct attention to indis .duals, each
student should develop her maximum
power for independent work and thus
prepare herself for prudent use Of
time and energy during the coming
school year. o.

ST. CLOUD VISITED BY FIRE
ENTIRE LESSEN BLOCK DESTROY.
ED BY FLAMES FRIDAY-LOSS
ESTIMATED AT $4,000

The main business section of the city
of st. Cloud was visited by a very dis
astrous fire at about s o'clock Friday
morning, when the entire Leisen block,
containing a store, pool room and several
attorneys Offices, was destroyed. The
complete loss is estimated at $4,000,
which is partially covered by insurance.
The fire was noticed by clerk in the
New Clothes store, who turned in the
alarm. When the fire department ar
rived on the scene, however, the building
was an entire mass of flames and the
entire business block from Fifth to Sixth
avenues was threatened. Mayor Sc
berger of st. Cloud telephoned to Min
neapolis to send up fire apparatus as fast
as possible and the Great Northern
railway company was asked to have a
special train in readiness to bring the
apparatus to st. Cloud. These steps were
taken by the mayor as the entire bnsi-
ness section for several blocks was
threatened. A great deal OF trouble was
also experienced in getting the steam
pumps started at the pumping station,
and it was not until two hours after the
fire alarm had been turned in that the
pumps were in action. The flames were
finally checked and the call for aid from
Minneapolis was countermanded.
The estimated losses were as follows
Leisen estate, owners of building,
$4,000, with $4,000 insurance, New
Clothes store, $4,000, partially insured,
r. T. Hammond, pool hall, $4,5Oo, insured
for $500, J. H. and III. J. Sullivan, at
torneys, $4,000, partially insured, jerks
& Quigley, attorneys, $500, partially
covered, J H. Maybury. attorney, $4,000,
partially covered, w. H. Alden, city
justice, $1,000, partially covered, F. A.
Hoyt, dentist, $1,000, partially insured.
Other losses amounted to about 5000.
