King's “History of the: San Francisco. Stock and Exchange Board” is this story of Flood and Sherwood: In the early days, in the seventies, quite a number of operators would gather together in Cahill's office on Montgomery - street, near California. Among them were Mr. James C. Flood and Mr. Robert Sherwood. Sherwood. had 1,000 Consolidated Virginia, the stock selling at about $100. One day. Sherwood, on’ looking at the prices,: remarked that he was getting tired of that Consolidated . Virginia; it did not move much. Mr. Flood said: “What: are you growling about? If you are: tired of that stock I will take it off* your hands at $100.” *“Sold,” said Sherwood, and the stock changed hands. In course of time the Nevada bank building. was erected on the corner of Pine and Montgomery streets. On meeting Sherwood one day Mr. Flood: remarked, ‘““We built that Nevada: block.on the profits of that 1,000 shares; of Consolidated Virginia you sold us.” Subsequently, in the Sierra Nevad: and Union deal, Mr. Flood approached:| Sherwood on the street and bought from him 5,000' Union at $200 a share,:| the transaction footing up $1,000,000. Sherwood. built the Union block, on the gore corner of Pine, Davis and Market: streets. Meeting. Flood one. day, he remarked. “I built that Union: block with the profits of that 5,000 Union 1 sold you.” Inheritance. of ‘the ‘Blind.

Duluth, July 9.—In response to an urgent call for help the Duluth fire de- partment sent a steamer and an en- gine crew to Bruno, Pine county, to assist the people of the town in fight- ing forest fires. The ‘call on the Du- luth fire department for aid stated that unless help was secured imme- diately the town would be wiped out.

Large crews of men were sent out from here and fought the fire all night. The fires are within a mile of here, but the wind is not blowing hard. The fire war- dens are sending all the men out that they can get hold of to fight the fire and they think they will prevent it from reaching this village. Thus far no lives are reported lost, but several persons had narrow escapes from be- ing burned. There I8 no sign of rain. Unless. there is rain soon the whole country will be afire.

The situation has been desperate in other parts of Northern Michigan, but the rains were general. Farmers and others have prayed for rain for weeks. All grain and grass crops are ruined. Absolutely no pas- turage is had for stock and farmers are selling cattle.and horses. Lake. Superior has been cleared of smoke and the boats are proceeding on their courses. Bayfield, Wis., July 9.—A light rain fell and saved about $500,000 worth of logs from a bad fire which was sweep- ing down on them before a sixty-mile gale. Russels Crossing is safe. Set- tlers at Sand River, thirteen miles from here, have been driven to the lake. MADE WINE OF WILD FLOWERS Young. Girl Is Dead and Brother Has Narrow Escape.

She was rushing through the . gate past Bill Gibson, the gateman, like a passenger train by a flag station, but Gibson stopped her. “Let’s see your tlcket, lady,” he asked politely enough. “Oh, 1 have no ticket,” she said, “but won't you please let me through. I want to”— “It's agalnst the rules,” cut in Gib- son. “Yes, but I want to be there on the platform”—all- this breathlessly—“TI'm 80 anxious to meet him.” “Well, go on through,” Gibson told her. “I guess it'll be all right.” Then to himself he soliloquized: “Why not? Perhaps she won't always be so keen to meet him; probably hasp’t been married but a month or so; mebby isn’t married yet at all. Far be it from me to interrupt.her in such nice little attentions.” The train came in. Gibson sort of looked ‘out of the tail of his eye for a chance to witness the happy re- union. -Such sights illumine the dark recesses of the dingy old depot. In a moment he caught sight of her.
