Complaint Dismissed Roy Perry , a young man living six miles northeast of Ansclmo , was on trial in county court yes terday on complaint of the coun ty attorney , the allegation being that he willfully set out a praire fire which did considerable dam age to neighboring property.

A quick re sponse on the part of the fire boys , who had water ( lying on the fire within ten minutes of the first clang of the fire bell , probably prevented a disastrous fire , as the wind was blowing strongly at the time. The dam age to the building was light , and aside from the inconvenience it occasioned in getting out the work , Laundryman Thomas is to be congratulated. M. F.
