Many years ago some admirers ot
Lord Byron raised a subscription for
a monument to the poet to be placed
In Westminster Abbey. Chantrey was
requested to execute It, but on ao-
count of the smallness of the sum
subscribed he declined, and Thorwald-
sen was then applied to and cheerfully
undertook the work.
In about 1838 the finished statue
arrived at the customs .house In Lon
don. but to the astonishment of the
subscribers the dean of Westminster,
Dr. Ireland, declined to give permis
sion to have It set up In the abbey,
and owing to this difficulty, which
proved Insurmountable, for Dr. Ire

Warroad, Minn., OcL 10.— Death’s
toll from forest fires now sweeping
Northern Minnesota in the Rainy River
district may reach 400.
General Su
perintendent Cameron o f the Canadian
Pacific railway, says this estimate will
be larger.
Four towns have been wiped out by
the flames.
Hundreds o f settlers are misaing and
the death list grows hourly. Bodies of
98 dead have already been gathered.
Thousands of refugees fill Warroad.
The town is in great danger from
forest fires which are gradually ap
proaching the town.
Two special
trains left Winnipeg over the Cana
dian Northern railway with fire hose
and apparatus. Roosevelt is safe af
ter an all-day fight, but the town is
crowded with refugees.
The fire is spreading and is now only
seven miles from Sprague, Manitoba,
which is 20 miles Northwest of here.
A fire is also coming down from the
north o f Sprague, where it has burned
the great quantities of cord wood, tel
ephone and telegraph poles awaiting
shipmenL
The forest fire is the greatest since
the Hinckley, Minn., horror o f 15
years ago. It is almost impossible to
estimate the number o f missing, but
messages Bent out by private individ
uals indicate that 100 relatives, most
ly from around Beaudette, have not re
ported.
General Superintendent Cameron, of
the Canadian Northern,
places the
number of deaths at 400, but admits
that it may be larger.
The towns o f Pitt, Spooner, Grace-
town and Beaudette were burned F ri
day nighL The fire was|heralded by a
shower of sparks and (burning brands,
which swept across the Beaudette riv
er, and the inhabitants barely had
time to reach the special train that
was waiting ,before both towns were
on fire.
) Sick people, apparently by the score,
appeared and were carried or assisted
to points of safety. {There were five
patients in Carrigan's hospital who
had been burned.
A special train is waiting to take
the people to some other point in case
the fire should get a fresh start

after a fire.
The property loss in Rainy River,
Beaudette and Spooner alone, includ
ing the Rat Portage Lumber company’s
plant and yard at Rainy River and the
yard o f Shevlin-Mathieu Lumber com
pany at Spooner, will total about $1,-

at Beaudette. It is reported that many
settlers, erased with g rie f at the loss
o f families and property, are roaming

looking for the injured, the dead and
the demented. One family of nine,
one o f seven and one of five are known
to have perished.
