Burned to Death
In School House
Little Children Per-
ish in Fire at Peabody,
Massachusetts,
HUNDREDS CAUGHT
Fire Drill Started But Burst of
Flames and Hot Smoke Cause
Cries of Pain, Then Panic

Twenty-one children, most of
them girls, ranging in age from
! Z to II years, lost their lives in
fire which destroyed St. Johns
Parochial school at Peabody,
Mass, October 80.
Trapped on the upper floors of
the three-story brick building,
caught behind door which
opened inward and was jammed
by the weight Of humanity, the
little ones were burned or
crushed to death.
Twenty children, who were
finally rescued from the school
building, which was a mass of
flames, were seriously injured.
Of the 10 bodies at an under
taking shop, 10 have been iden-
titled.
There were 672 children from
seven to 13 years of age in the
building when the fire broke out.
TN Way to Classes
They were just preparing to
go to their morning classes when
one of the sisters smelled smoke.
She investigated and found the
lower hall ablaze.
The flames were spreading
rapidly. The fire alarm was
sounded. The children were told
to leave the building by the
side doors. In the class rooms
perfect order was observed.
Then the tots stepped into the
hall. Thick, hot smoke poured
toward them. The flames crack
led nearby. First came cries to
the sisters, then terror and
panic.
Boys and girls, seeing their
teachers helpless, broke ranks.
When the ruins had cooled
sufficiently to permit it, Build
ing Inspector A. H. Mcdonald
and w. S. Murrel, of the state
police, made their way for a few
feet into the basement, and later
reported that the steam boiler
which was reported to have ex-
ploded, was intact.

LITTLE CORN MARKETABLE
Only 10 Per Cent or Less Is Fit
for Grain Purposes, Farm
College Informed

Between 80 and 95 per cent
of Minnesota's corn crop will be
unmarketable for grain purposes,
according to reports received
daily by the extension division
of the Minnesota College of Agri-
culture, under A D. Wilson, di-
rector.
The rest Of the crop, which
was caught in the glazed and
milk stakes, will be useful only
for feeding.
Federal Field Men to Report
A complete report on the corn
situation in Minnesota is being
prepared by the checkers and
field men for the United States
Department of Agriculture.
Rush to Build Silos
Minnesota farmers who have
silos will get pretty nearly full
value out Of their corn, if they
have the cattle to feed it to-" A.
F. Woods, dean of the College of
Agriculture, said today. 'sThe
farmers who have not a silo and
have cattle are hustling to put
up their silos in order to make
the best of this years situation"

The announcement that the

Its forces everywhere along its
line from St. Paul to the Pacific
coast is cheering news to all of
US and naturally will have a
tendency Of spreading a spirit Of
optimism every place over the
west. When the railroads pros
per all of us share with them
alike, and when they suffer from
depression we likewise feel the
the strains. The year 1914 was
anything but a profitable one for
the great transcontinental lines
and the public. as we'll as the
employees, soon felt the effects.
The year 1915 gives greater pro-
mise. The factories in the east,
after laying idle for months, are
beginning to resume operations
and it will not be more than a
fortnight before we will begin
to feel the results Confidence
Is everything in commercial life
and for this reason we should
endeavor to cultivate optimisms
rather h n pesmissim. We
should see the doughnut and not
the hole.
The time for the holding of
annual meetings will soon be
over and then we look for an
immediate revival of business in
railroad circles. We are satisfied |
that it will be only matter of a .
few short weeks before the Mil
waukee will be operating its |
shops in this city with greatly |
increased forces nd we are
further Of the opinion that addi-
tlonal train crews will be put on
to handle the increased volume
of traffic with the opening up of
the industrial enterprises over
the country.
Fortunately, Miles City and
Custer county have not been hit
very hard, nevertheless we have
felt to some little extent the de-
preston. The light payroll of

PERFORMS DIFFICULT OPERA.
TON

An operation unusual for the man
ner and means by which 1t was per.
formed took place at st. Mary's Hos
pital, Minneapolis, last week. The
patient, E. J. Kelly, Of 2016 Third Ave.
s., was suffering from a fractured dis
location Of the shoulder. The bone
was badly shattered: the repair Of
the fracture necessitated an opera
ton which would bind the bones to.
gether. To accomplish this a steel
shingle nail and q prepared bronze
wire were used. This novel method
of binding fragments of bone together
has been used with success by Dr..
John B. Murphy of Chicago. 1t is
the first time that the operation has
been performed In this city. Nj.
Kelly. the patient, is doing very we'll,
and his many friends are not only In
terested in his early restoration to
health and are likewise interested in
the result of the unusual operation
DR.. Voyer, who performed the opera
ton, is past Grand knight of the Hen
