THROUGH FIRES
I IN THE FORESTS
OF MINNESOTA
II. G.. Torrance Drove to
Warroad-And He Didn't
Like it a Bit.

H. c. Torrance of the Moore Auto
company had an exciting experience
with forest fires in northern Mime
sofa h past week having made the
run from C%rookstOn to Warroad, a
portion of the distance being between
walls of fame n smoke so dense
they could not see more than a city
block ahead.
From Rosseau to Warroad they had
the worst experience. Only the fact
that the highway is a government
road and the timber has been cleared
on either side enabled the party to
get through, and al 1t was the heat
from the blazing forests was decidedly
uncomfortable, while the smoke was
sitting. They passed within a mile
and d half of the blazing town OF
Salow, where the fires practically de-
stroyed the settlement. Several farm
burned. The fires drove their de-
vastatinK tongues Of flame to the very
edge of Warroad inc every person in
the town was called out to fight.
Mr.. Torrance 4 y the settlers
themselves are to blame for the re-
current forest fires in northern Min
ne6ota. as they are almost always
started by the men clearing up a
patch Of land and setting fire to the
brush as the easlest way 10 get Tlo OF
It.
I'VE stopped at n place where a
man was piiing up the brush and call
ed his attention to the fact that the
wind was high and that another hre a
short ways back was spreading into
tho timber. He did not seem excited
and went on with his work with the
remark that it would do more good
than harm. we asked him what Of
the settlers whose homes were in dan.
ger and he said there were not nan
Of them around there and he guessed
they could take care Of themselves"
At another point . farmer was
standing in the road with the flame
his cabin and was firing
his shotgun into the AIR TO attract
help.
II had heard of forest firss many
times, said Mr.. Torrance. "but thi1 II
1.-The first time / ever got into them and
II hope 1t will be the last. It's as nea

MARY MATTSON IS
DYING IN ASYLUM

Mary Mattson, committed from
Grand Forks county to the state
asylum for the insane in September,
1891, is critically i'll at the James,
town institution and is not expected
to live.
H. M. Hotchkiss, superintendent of
the asylum, has written to County
Judge L. K. Hassell asking for any
information as to the whereabouts Of
relatives. He says:
IF she has any relatives or friends
that o know of, will you kindly
notify them? We have had no in
quiries concerning this patient for
years, and it seems that no one is in
terested in her case, but I thought
perhaps you might know Of some rel
ative."
Judge Hassell has been unable to
find any relatives in this city. Mary

Those are the ones who are to miss the greatest joy in early life. For them, then, Buffalo Bill might be dead today. But for Us he can never die, nor will his memory fade so long as we can hand down the story by word of mouth, or by the printed page. Buffalo Bill shall live forever and a day.

DIR. ANDERSON.

For the best part of a quarter of a century Dr. Arvid Anderson practiced his profession in this city During that time he endeared himself to a greater part of the population There are few who have not at some time or other heard of the great work per- formed by Dr. Anderson. His death is d shock to members of his profess sion and a source of profound grief to those who knew of his great nature. Yet in the prime of life he had reached the apex of an ancient and honorable profession. By diligent study and application he kept ever abreast with the latest deNclcpmcnts in the realm of medicine. He brought to New Britain the best knowledge that medical authorities of Europe and America could supply and he dis pensed his talent equally alike for the rich and the poor. That the nurses of the New Britain General hospital VOL unteered to a transmission of blood in order to save his life is one of the 1 highest tributes ever paid )any man in l the community. Those who toiled { and labored in the same field with Dr. | Anderson knew him for the true gen ] tleman and physician. His retiring | disposition and modestly prevented the outside world from enjoying one of the finest personalities known in this | vicinity.

Pepine was equally success full, and another battleship went UT in flames.

| a time He recalls that in his boy l hood days families laid in supply in 1 the Fall. buying directly of the farm l CTS whatever was required of them | But now he signs, we buy from hand 1 to-mouth and pay the piper.
 This is good description of what practically every one knows, and 1t | is only a question of whether the peo- pie want to return to the old time manner of living, or whether they could bring themselves to return to 1t. There is a reason for everything-ob- viously. if this has become a paper bag age there is a reason for it, and 1t is not far to seek The people de- mand that. what they eat shall be as fresh as possible. While some things,
 on account of their being produced
 only in certain seasons of the year,
 have to be put in storac for other
 seasons, the householdcrs leave it to
 the dealers to take the risks of keep ing the products in good condition.
 That is the business of the dealers; they assume the risk. and 1t is only fair that they should be compensated
 for their service. In many instances
 'paper-bag" buying is more eco-
 nomical Not only does 1t leave the
 storage expenses to others but prices
 fluctuate so that the best possible
 rates on a large supply of cggs at
 one period might be above the retail
 price before the eggs are consumed. There is no question that the cost
 of living. in the main, could be re- duced by return to the old-time
 manner of living; but who wants to
 do that, and what modern person
 could do it? Customs, developed as
 naturally as that of paper ba s"
 buying, are not so easily set aside
