A special from Blaine says flames broke out In H. J. Renktn5s Lumber company'a plant here at 10:30 o'clock tonight and at midnight It practically consumed the entire plant, valued at 1250,000. The flames, tanned by a strong southwest wind, are being rapidly carried to ward the Erie mill, a hundred feet away, and the Morrison mill. The plants of the Northwest Crab Canning company, the city dock and the Alnsworth and Dunn's canning plant, are threatened. The firemen are being assisted by hundreds of volunteers and desperate efforts are being made to save what Is believed to be the possible destruction of the whole of the water front. If the plants are all destroyed the total loss will run beyond a million dollars. The origin of the fire Is not known. ADRIFT FIVE DAYS. NEWPORT, Va., Oct. 12. Six men are believed to have perished and two others were saved only af ter undergoing harrowing experi ences while adrift at tea for five days on a bit of wreckage as the result of the British three-masted schooner Si rocco going to pieces on a reef In the West Indies ten days ago. The two survivors. Mate Joseph Lalng and Cook O. Roberts, were bronght here on the British steamer Tiverton. The Sirocco of Nassau, laden with I railroad Iron, was bound from Brunswick, Ga., to Wilson City, Ba hamas. She ran Into an easterly gale that was blowing with fearful force on October 1, when off the Ba hamas, and was- dismantled, and af ter running before the wind until noon of that day struck Mantella reef and went to pieces. Captain Munroe and the unfortunate five with him were washed away with the debris from the wreck. Laing and Roberts grasped a por tion of the poop deck and all drifted together until evening, when they separated, the captain and five dis appearing. The two men on their Im provised raft were tossed about until last Monday noon. They were with out water, food or sleep during all that time. Finally they were sight ed by the Tiverton and rescued. 1'ltKV TO GAMBLERS. DALLAS. S. D., Oct. 12. It Is es timated that 100 land-seekers who have come to Dallas and Gregory have lost their money at gaming tables and are "broke." Many more who have lost all their ready cash have been forced to telegraph for money. Nearly 60,000 persons have regis tered at these two points already, and nearly as many more are expect ed before the period of registration closes. Hundreds return as quick as they have registered, but thousands have remained for the drawing. Gamblers have operated their games without restraint and are said to have made remarkable winnings. They run pell mell 24 hours a day, with the games as strong at daybreak as when the sun sets. To be broke in this country means something to a man, because he Is without friends, generally, and at the same time when It Is not easy to make new ones. Every outgoing train carries many men who have lost their money and risk their lives riding on brakebeams. No land opening has ever brought more people, and they all come with money. Those who have the gamb ling spirit stick to the roulette and faro tables, with the result that sev eral hundred are living on charity until they can get out of the country. Itmill.KD WITH Itl l.l.KTS. AUBURN, Cal., Oct. 12. J. P. Garred, who shot and wounded Louis Fallen and his wife at Dutch Flat, was riddled with bullets this after noon by a posse which was out In the brush hunting him and upon whom he fired from a ditch. Last Sunday Garred fired upon Fallers, hitting Mrs. Fallen in the hip and Fallers In the hand. Early this morning a posse headed by Sheriff McAulay, started In pur suit and searched the brush In vain until about 3 o'clock, when It was decided to retire from the hunt and try another plan. The sheriff and his deputies took a train for Aub urn and a few minutes afterward as the posse was passing old Garred opened fire on them. One shot hit a young man named Wagner In the leg. The posse re turned the tire and riddled Garred with bullets. It Is said that Garred had no real cause for shooting Fallers and that he Is undoubtedly Insane. There has been some dispute between the parties over land Garred had sold Fallers. ROBBER KILLS OFFICER. SEATTLE, Oct. 12. Shot down In the performance of his duty, F. E.

Copyrighted. 108, by Auociated LJterary freaa. oooooooo9ooooj -I will tide Black Dan. Jenkins," aid Peggy calmly. "Yea, nilss," replied Jenklna, disap pearing la the direction of the it able. Holcomb frowned and prepared to follow In the wake of tbe groom. "Of course you know you can't ride Black Dan, Peggy." be aald Impatient ly. "He has thrown you twice, and I bare aald no woman shall mount blm aguln. Any other none In tbe sta bles' "Thank you,H aald Peggy coldly. "I don't care to ride any other bone. Tou are such an old granny. Bob!" "Shall f order Pretty Girl?" asked I Holcomb patiently. "No. I nave ordered Black Dan," she replied defiantly. "I must countermund the order, Peg gy. No woman shall ride blm with my permission," aald Bob stiffly. Peggy's eyea flashed ominously, and her pretty Hps stiffened Into a straight j line. "If you countermand my order. Bob Holcomb, she flashed angrily, "you may" She choked back a little sob. "Whatr "You may keep tbe ring you were going to give me. finished Peggy re morselessly. "Do you mean It? be asked, coming closer to her and looking down into her wide gray eyea. "Yes, said Peggy hardily. Holcomb turned away with a little droop of bla broad shoulders. "Never tbeless, Peggy, I must countermand tbe order," be said gravely. Then be went down the steps and disappeared through the stable gateway. Peggy Lin wood stared after him with hot cheeks and flashing eyea. Her little brown bands tightened their grasp on tbe arms of the low chair. "I'm very glad I broke It off," she thought mechanically. "Fancy being married to a man with such a nasty temper as Bob Holcomb! What a fool I was to fall In love with him!" She sped upstairs to the c hints alt ting room, where her mother sat be fore a cozy tire. "Mother, dear, let us go borne at once." ahe began abruptly. "I can't stay In Bob Holcomb'a house another minute!" She sank breath lessly on the couch. Mrs. Lin wood adjusted her glasses and looked quizzically at her daugh ter. "We mustn't siwll Bub's house party, denr," she said mildly. "I told Uim we would stay until Monday, and we must do so. Have you quarreled with him, Peggy?" "Yes," said Peggy shortly. "What about? Was It worth while?" "I'd rather not tell, mother, admit ted Peggy guiltily. "Oh. well!" Mrs. Llnwood smiled furtively Into her book. "If I were go ing to quarrel. Peggy, dear, I wouldn't wear that brown dress. You know It Is so unbecoming, and when a woman disagrees with a luun she should wear her prettiest frock. Now, the blue linen" But Peggy had flown out of tbe room and was anxiously surveying herself In the cheval glass In her own pretty apartment. "Mother's right." she sighed miserably. "I look a fright In this frock. It's too late to pretty up' very much, but where Is the blue linen V Late that afternoon Peggy encoun tered Bess Dane sauntering across tbe lawn under the shade of century old elms. "Congratulate me, Peggy, dear, an nounced Bess, airily extending a slim hand. Peggy gasped. "Not Frederic? Bess, dear" "Not Frederic," interrupted Miss Dane coolly. "Guess again. Peg, and In the meantime admire my ring. Isn't 1 It the sweetest ever?" Such an odd ring It was too. In numerable small diamonds formed the petals of a daisy, with a biasing topax for tbe yellow center. Peggy looked at it with wildly beating heart "It's more suitable for you. Peg, be cause its a marguerite. Nevertheless It suits your bumble servant right down to the ground, as the poet has It" Miss Dane sighed complacently aa she seated herself on the grass. "Come, sit down. Peg, and discuss the details," she coaxed. "You will be maid of honor, of course." "Of course, Bess," murmured Peggy miserably, "when when" "Don't say 'when' again,' admonish ed Bess mildly. "I'll tell you when I know. Bob hasn't even asked me to name the day. There were other and more important matters to go over," she blushed warmly. "But you and I can talk about the frocks and the wedding and about Bob himself." "I didn't even suspect," said Peggy humbly as she nibbled a blade of grass. "No one suspects. It will not be an nounced until I go borne. Don't you think him the best fellow In the world. Peg, dear?" "Of course." cried Peggy lightly. "And now, Bess, you must let me go, for I am going for a gallop." "Not on Black Dan?" questioned Mist Dane playfully. "No. Indeed," said Peggy warmly "He has thrown me twice, you know I shall ride Pretty Girl." "Wise child." murmured Bess, sur veying her ring dreamily. An Peggy rode slowly nut of tbe lodge gate and turned Into the lane that was her favorite bridle path bet last picture was of Bessie Dane ex amining her engagement ring with loving admiration. Peggy's warm. Impulsive heart swell ed with grief and Indignation. Light Indeed was Bob Holcomb's love when be could shift so quickly from one sweetheart to another! How conven ient for such ss he to carry an engage ment ring in his pocket! Peggy bad never seen tbe rtog until It flashed from Miss Dane's finger, but Bob had told her It was tbe prettiest ring In the world and that tbcro was no other like It. It bad come that morning In the registered mall, and be had whispered that be wanted ber to try It on after breakfast. And then had come the Black Dan episode, end she bad not seen Bob since. He bad absented himself from tbe luncheon table under plea of busi ness. No wonder be had been ashamed to face ber! Pretty Girl ambled down the lane, where tbe thick hedge on either aide made a long green arbor through which tbe lute afternoon sunlight fil tered on Peggy's shining hair. A thrush, noised on the topmost bough of a young chestnut, iwured out a rap turous soug. Tbe liquid notes fell on tbe girl's ear with heartbreaking sweetness, and she leaned ber sunny head down on Pretty Girl's neck and sobbed. The mare stopped and turned her head with mild surprise. Some one was comlug down the lane on a tall gray bono some one wltb discontent ed eyes that lighted wonderfully when they saw Peggy's drooping bead. "Peggy, dear! What Is the matter?" Bob Holcomb was bending over his late fiancee, and one strong band drew her bead to bis shoulder. Peggy withdrew herself with a frightened cry. "How dare you, sir? she said indignantly. She was obliv ious to the traces of teara on ber pink cheeks. "Ob, come now, Peggy," entreated Holcomb, "I know you didn't mean what you said and" "Bessie Dane has told me of ber en gagement to you. Bob," said Peggy icily. "Engagement! To Bessie! Fudge!" said Holcombe weakly. "Why of course she Is engaged to Bob Mills. He's staying over at Beecbcroft and rode over here this morning, and I guess they fixed It up then. Seen her ring?" Peggy nodded. There was a singing in ber heart, and she wondered if Bob could hear it "Trashy looking ring," commented Holcomb, fumbling in bis pocket; then be drew forth a leather case and ex tracted a ring, the conventional en gagement ring a large solitaire. As he slipped It on Peggy's willing finger be said tenderly: "Now, most people would say It was Just like a hundred other engagement rings, but it Isn't There isn't another ring like it In the world, Peggy, be cause It means that we are betrothed with It It means that our love will always overcome any foolish misun derstandings, eh, Peggy, darling?" he murmured as he slipped bis arm around ber waist. And Peggy smiled assent, wltb a light of new understanding In her eyes. Down Growing Roots. The unalterable downward trend of tbe first root Is nil the more remark able when we consider that the sub sequent ramifications grow out In any direction which seems to be desirable. Many years ago Colonel Greenwood started some experiments by fixing horse chestnut seeds lu Inverted pots. Tbe first root to npiear developed downward Into the light, but naturally soon shriveled up and died. Not so the secondary roots, which had spread into the soli of the pot. The pier parts of the plants, which had presumably first grown to one side and then shot upward, continued to flourish exceed ingly. It Is related that for no less than twenty years Colonel Greenwood kept one of these chestnuts alive, all the time in an upside down condition as far as the roots were concerned. When the plant became too large for Its original receptacle Its roots were Incased In a chimney pot, several of these latter being called into requisi tion as the experiment continued. Finally the root was turned over a wall and conducted to a mound of earth on tbe other side, at last being allowed to take a natural course This the long suffering tree readily did and remained for some time a great curi osity wltb its long arching root Sci entific American. The Magi elan and the King. A magician once traveled to New Zealand. It was arranged that be should give an exhibition of mind read ing before tbe king of the Maoris. Aft er some parleying it was decided that the king himself should conceal the article which tbe magician was to dis cover. The mind reader left the room and after a time was brought back blind folded, as Is the custom in such per formances. After some time the ma gician declared that the bidden article was In the king's mouth. His majesty shook his bead savagely in tbe nega tive. The magician Insisted upon bis point and demanded that the king's mouth be opened wide. The king re fused. The magician Insisted, and the ex citement became very great until at last the dusky king reluctantly opened bis Jaws. The article was not there! Tbe next Instant however, the king was taken with a violent fit of cough ing. He had tried to swallow the lost article, a button, but could not and was compelled to rough It up. The Maoris were uproarious with mirth. They did not know which to admire the more the wisdom of the magician or the heroism of the king. FARMERS! FARMERS!!
