PREVENT FOREST FIRES.
Public's Cooperation Sought to Stop
Blazes Which Are Causing Big
Losses in The East.

To obtain the cooperation of the pub
! lie in preventing forest fires which are
doing great deal of damage in the East
this spring, the department has prepared
10 "Don'ts" to be observed in the woods.
1t is hoped that these rules may have a
beneficial effect during the fire season Of
the southern Appalachians, which is not
yet over, and that of the north woods,
which is just beginning and which, from
present indications, promises to be un-
usually severe.
The "Don'ts'' follow:
1. Don't throw your match away until
you are sure it is out.
2. Don't drop cigarette or cigar butts
until the glow is extinguished.
8. Don't knock out your pipe ashes
while hot or where they will fall into dry
leaves or other infiamrnable material.
a. Don't build camp fire any larger
than is absolutely necessary.
/ A5. Don't build fire against a tree,
log, or stump, or anywhere but on bare
soil.
6. Don't leave fire until you are sure
! it is out; if necessary smother it with
earth or water.
| Z. Don't burn brush or refuse in or
near the woods if there is any chance
that the fire may spread beyond your
control, or that the wind may carry
sparks where they would start new fire.
8. Don't be any more careless with fire
in the woods than you are with fire in
your own home.
9. Don't be idle when you discover a
fire in the woods; il, you can't put it out
yourself, get help. Where forest guard,
ranger, or State fire warden can be
reached, call him up on the nearest tele-
phone you can find.
10. Don't forget that human thought
lessness and negligence are the causes of
more than half of the forest fires in this
country, and that the smallest spark may
start confagration that will result in
loss of life and destruction of timber and
young growth valuable not only for
lumber, but for their influence in helping

OBITUARY
JOHN MEURER.

John Meurer, prosperous and we'll
known farmer Of Belgrade died at his
home last night at about 1890, death
resulting from leakage and enlargement
of the heart, which attacked him last
Monday. At first his illness did not
seem to be serious, and he worked in his
fields, cultivating corn on Tuesday and
Wednesday. Friday noon he became
very ill, and grew gradually worse until
the end. He was fifty-four years of age
at the time of his death, and was born in
New York City. When but a small
child he came to Minnesota with his
parents, who located on farm near Bel
grade, and where he grew up. Twenty
six years ago last June he was united in
marriage to Miss Elizabeth Andring of
Belgrade, the ceremony being performed
in Mankato, and the young couple going
to housekeeping on the farm, where they
have made their home ever since, and
where their nine children were born.
Mr.. Meurer was a member of St. Mi
chael's society Of Belgrade, and served as
school director for his district for many
years resigning last year. He was uni
versally respected in his community.
The surviving relatives are the widow,
and nine children as follows: Mrs.
Thomas Kozitza, Mapleton; Mrs. Joseph
M. Meurer, Cranky; Mrs. Robert Bushy,
Mankato; Mrs. Benjamin Meurer living
on the farm; Leo, Lucy, Marcella and
Eva, all living at the family home, two
brothers, Joseph of Bird Island; Matt of
Nicollet; five sisters, Mrs. S. ]. Conner,
Sioux Falls, S. D.; Mrs. Henry Andring,
Cray county; Mrs. Charles Imbler, Cum
berland, Wis; Mrs. Kate Fabrow, Min
neapolis and Miss Margaret Meurer Of
Eldridge, California. Funeral announce
ments will be made later. -Mankato

LAST MANS BANQUET AT STILL
WATER.

"We meet meath the sounding rafter,
And the walls around are bare;
AS they echo the peals of laughter,
1t seems that the dead are there;
But stand to your glasses steady,
We drink to our comrades eyes;
Quaff a cup to the dead already
And hurrah for the next who dies!''
Last Wednesday eight white-haired
veterans met at Saltwater and ''drank
to the dead already "as they gazed at the
draped and empty chairs before them.
These eight men represented the eleven
survivors of Company ''B" Of the old
Fighting First Minnesota and they were
observing the 'Last Mans Banquet"
as they have done every year for the
last twenty nine years on the 21st of July.
Only eleven of the thirty-three men
who were present at the banquet the first
time are now living and the long table
was occupied by but eight of the old figh-
tiers, unless the spirit of the departed sat
in the vacant, black-palled chair that
was his of old. And these grizzled heroes
sof Gettysburg stood and drank to the,
memory of their departed comrades.
The toast was drunk in water but at the
head of the table, in its familiar black
walnut case, stood the bottle of wine
presented to the dinners at their first
banquet twenty-nine years ago. This
wine is to be opened at the last banquet
when the only survivor is left to stand
by the battered colors alone. Thru all
these years the. bottle of wine has stood
at it's place at the head of the table and
after each banquet has been returned to
the safety deposit vault of one of the Still
water banks where it is kept in state till
the time it is needed comes. Pasted on
the bottle, beneath the red, white and
blue ribbons of the seal are the names of
the original members of the club who
have one by one answered the last roll
call.
In spite of the fact that their ranks
are fast thinking, the ''boys" of Company
s'B" are a jolly lot as they gather at their
annual banquet from all parts Of the un-
ion. President Myron Shepard came
all the way from Los Angeles to attend
the banquet in spite of his eighty-three
years, as full of enthusiasm as when fifty
four years ago he joined the old First
Minnesota on the battlefield of Bull Run
after paying his own way from Mime
sofa to the front in his eagerness
to join the regiment, and be in the first
fight.
The First Minnesota is the regiment
that Minnesota may we'll be proud of in
the brilliant history of all her troops in
the Civil War. This regiment won UNI
dying fame at Gettysburg when in the
face of overwhelming odds they charged
and checked the advance of a whole Con-
federate brigade at the command of
General Hancock. The regiment en-
tered the battle with 262 men and
came out with AZ able to answer the
roll-call, the heaviest loss sustained by
any regiment in the war.

to prevent flood, erosion, and drought.
In many States laws covering most of
the provisions in this list of don is" are
strictly enforced by the State authorities.
In some States persons who go into the
woods may not build fires at all unless
they have received permit to do so from
the State Forester. Severe penalties
are imposed for carelessness which might
lead to the forest fires.
The Governor and his staff are going
to visit the Worlds Fair at San Francisco
and will also visit important points en-
route. The expenses will not be paid
by the state, as some may imagine, each
member of the party digging down in his
jeans for the necessary where with-all.
The Governor believes in paying for his
pleasure out of his own pocket, which is
more than some of our past executives
can boast of-Chaska Herald.

to bring forth in the United States a

they can end it all by blowing up some

Petticoat Styles.

Petticoats Of muslin are back again
In the feminine wardrobe after an en-
forced retirement of several seasons
duration. They are shaped somewhat
differently than their predecessors,
having been Influenced by the chang
ing lines in outer apparel.
Some of the new models incline to
close-htting hip lines and a naring
founce.
There are others that are only mod
erately wide through the hem. One
reason advanced for the maintenance
of the comparatively narrow petticoat
! Is that with the revival Of the very
wide outer skirt. particularly as advo-
Gated for dance purposes. the need for
the clinging foundation skirt IL at once

Facts About Lingerie.

Soft, broad revers define the open
neck of the smart nightgown. The
shoulders are in kimono effect, and the
entire garment illustrates one Of the
most gracious and feminine models
that have been imported during these
troublesome times.
The French designers are favoring
empire effects. For example, one of
the latter is made of pale pink chiffon
material is drawn up beneath the bust
and kept in position by a narrow pep
lum, curved away in front.
Combinations in three-piece effect
have been essayed off and on for many
seasons. One of the most attractive Is
of flesh -colored chiffon cloth. The up
per part is short-waisted and intro
duces a series of pin-tucks, adjusting
the material lightly to the figure. To
the hemstitched waistband Is hung the
knickerbockers, cut on moderately
large lines and brought in at the knee
by a series of cluster tucks and pink
satin ribbon.
While white and pink remain the IA
vorite lingerie colors, there is an fnclu-
sion of pale blue to meet the demand

other color for their boudoir furnish
