MADISON, Feb. 16.-F'ire, caused by
an unknown incendiary. totally de-
stroyed the large Seaman house,
valued at S35, 900, recently purchased
nv the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad Company for the
purpose of eliminating the curve IN
their road between here ana
Chatham, at 3 o'clock yesterday
morning. An alarm was turned IN
when the fire was first discovered AT
3;4O a. m by Mrs. 5. Draper, OF 100
Kings road By the time the nre ap-
naratus arrived the house proper was
{ burned beyond redemption and the
department did not even turn any
water on the building.
Some of the adjacent small struc-
tnres were saved. The loss was COW
cred by insurance. The building,
which was a very large one, was STU
ated a few feet from the new tracks
Of the railroad company. There was
a sixty-seyen foot cut directly be-
hind the house, and ii is said that 1t
was the intention of the company TO
rent the building.
"Firebug," Says Chief.
When asked If he knew of the cause
of the fire, Fire Chief Samuel A. Cru
Yer said: THAT building was set on
IRE. We have some person in this
town who either likes to see a blaze
or likes to see the fire apparatus
turned out and the sooner that ne
is apprehended the better Tor the
community. There have been too
MANY fires of questionable origin of
late to have resulted from natural
causes" Other than this the CHIEF
gave no reason for his statement.
The two fires which are associated
together as having probably been OF
incendiary origin, are this one ana
the fire three weeks ago in the barn
of James e. Burnet, on Ridgedale
avenue. Both started at approx
mately the same time on Sunday
morning, and both were totally de-
stroyed. In both cases the buildings
destroyed were ones where no great
loss of life or a confiagration could
very we'll occur Mr.. Burnet was
away in Florida and the Seaman
house was unoccupied.
The Work of e Maniac.
Both cases show the work of a
maniac. who is subject to periodical
attacks. Superintendent Miller, an
employee of the railroad company,
occupies one of their houses on the
newly acquired property and he is
supposed to inspect all their houses
every day. He discovered a single
pair of tracks leading to and from
the burned house, but was unable to
follow them to their destination.
On account of the heavy fall of
SNOW the fire apparatus experienced
some difficulty in reaching the blaze.
On its way back about 5 o'clock the
pumping engine was stalled by a
heavy drift. Mechanics yesterday re-
paired the reverse, which refused to
work when the machine stuck.

NATIONAL GUARD
BOYS RETURN
Two Special Trains Brought the
Troops Home After Very Sue
cessful Encampment.

The members of the North Dakota
National Guard returned to the state
yesterday, by two special trains, from
Sparta, Wis, where they had been at
tending war maneuvers for the past
ten days.
Co. A of this city arrived about II
o'clock in the forenoon, under COM
mand of Lieutenant Fred Graham.
The boys report a good encampment,
though it was rather lonesome,
through the fact that they were the
only regiment there, and through the
further fact that they were far out
from town and all they had to do was
to eat, sleep and work.
Col. Frame, commander of the reg
iment, and. by the way, candidate for
lieutenant governor, accompanied the
boys to Bismarck, coming here on
official business, and being DESTROYS
OF attending the meetings of the can
vassing board and the republican cen
trail committee. q
Regarding the encampment, the
Colonel said: rive had a very sue
cessful camp. On the whole, the reg
iment is in good condition, and while
there is always room for improve
ment, yet the North Dakota boys
make a splendid type of soldier.
There was much good instruction and
l believe every organization profited
by the maneuvers. If we were called
into service today l believe the North
Dakota regiment would excel many
in the Union and compare fayorably
with the best of them"
Among the regimental officers from
Bismarck were Lieut-C Colonel Tharal'
son., Lieut.. Turner, U. S. A., Major
Henry and all of whom were enthus'
iastic in camp work and won appre-
citation from the men of the regi'
ment. Captains Hanley of Mandan
and Tollefson of Dickinson had good
strong companies, which were a cred
it to the organization. The western
companies all made a good showing
Co. A vas about the largest company
in the camp, and while without a cap
tain, made a good showing under the
command of Lieutenants Wing and
Graham. The local company will, un-
doubtedly elect a captain soon, to
succeed Capt. A. B. WEIGH, resigned.

made. The remains were inferred in
the Odd Fellows cemetery at Donny-
brook, net a relative being able to at

No Threats Were Used.
Shepherd scored the alleged agita-
tors on the project and declared that he
had only heard of the Canal Users as
ISOLATION by accident; that he had
talked with the settlers and they
seemed willing to work to the end Of
accomplishing something both for
themselves and the bondholders; that
the new contracts were being presented
to the settlers for their approval or re-
lection and that no attempt had been
made to force them to either sign or
not to. That he said was matter OPP
tional with the settlers and they so I'M
derstood it, but many of them had
signed it and were willing to take adj
vantage of the extension in payments
Those who did not sign, he said, the
trustees expect to come forward and
meet their payments. Unless they do
the trustees will have to proceed and
foreclose. Mr.. Shepherd spoke at some
length.
Scores Carey Act Lottery.
In the opinion Of Mr.. Shepherd as
stated to the board the lottery feature
OF the Carey act law Is not beneficial
to irrigated lands for it induces land
sharks and spectators to secure land
and hold it for speculation but not for
improvement, allowing them to get it
with merely the semblance Of an at
tempt at settlement and retards the
project and blocks its development
He added that he had conferred with
the secretary of the interior who had
informed him that until the courts by
| decision interfere, if they do, the de-
partment will not issue patent to these
spectators and land sharks but will
insist on improvement of the lands
they have entered.
Shepherd said that so far as the
trustees on the project are concerned
they do not propose to waste any more
time with speculative land holders on
the project and win order them to
either pay up or the company will pro-
coed to foreclose.
Attorneys Clash.
The board was anxious to hear from
the settlers themselves and a number
of them spoke Robert Frazier, first
president Of the Water Users associa-
ton. spoke in favor of the new con-
tract. F. w. Hastings said he would
