The extent of the damage can- not be estimated owing to the fact that the fires have cut off telegraphic com- munication with most of the smaller towns. On timber the losses are the heaviest and Frank McMillan of the McMillan Lumber company man inter- view said the loss to Wisconsin forests woula probably amount to between 15,000,000 and 16,000,000.

Five hundrwi dollars a t the prpsenl

t ime is B large amount for a man ot

small means to raise. One dollar, or even three, wouldn' t bother any of you. would it? Well, hardly. Any one of you

could do tha t little and never feel, and

yet a large number of " t h a t little's" would do an immense amoun t of good t o your editor. There is outs tanding on

nubacription accounts over $2,000, each peraon owinij a little, very few owing over three dollars, and yet the aggregate

fa large. None of you would really feel

the small amoun t you owe and yel •houW you all square op it would make

quite a respectable sum. Wha t I want is to remind you of your

editor and !;i8 needs. I want five h u n -dred dollara by O c t let, and I th ink I

do not appeal to you In vain. The

amount each of you owe is insignificant

but the aggreeate is no mean sum, so just do your lerel best and let me have

ihe amount my due before Oct. let wi thout fail. I shall expect to receive

It in t ime and belleva tha t my " f a i t h is well founded."

A MKMORAHI.K OCCASION.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—George Wash Ington laid the corner stone of the na-tional capitol 100 years ago. T h e event meant much more than any l ike cere-mony t ha t had preceded i t The federal const i tut ion had been adopt-ed. Two congresses had been held. Washington had been reelected. The republic which was to s tand for th before posteri ty 's eyes as the grandest achievement of a l l t he ages was an accomplished f a c t Since then a century has passed. The nat ion has borne f r u i t according to i ts promise The thir teen s ta tes have grown to for ty-four ; the few million of inhab i t an t s to near ly seventy. Bu t three wa r s have dis turbed the count ry ' s peace since than, and in all of these the union t r iumphed.

THE rROCBSfllON. As was the case 100 years ago, when

t h e f a the r of his count ry was escorted over the same ground over which President Cleveland rode, t h e civ-ic organizat ions predominated. There were four divisions, not includ-ing the president 's escor t

The procession moved prompt ly a t 1 o'clock, and pnesing th rough Pennsyl -vania avenue orrived a t t he capitol short ly a f t e r 2 o'clock, when t h e parade was dismissed and the ceremonies of commemorat ion were commenced from s tands erected on the east f r o n t In the presence of an Immense concourse of spectators.

CLKVKLAND'S ADDRESS.

Lawrence Gardner, a f t e r an address of welcome, in t roduced the pres ident as cha i rman of ceremonies, and he spoke as follows:

"Those who suppose that we ore • imply cn -goRcd in commemorating the ucginnlnc ot a magnificent structure devoted to important public uses have overlooked the most useful and tmprovtog lesson of the hour. W e do in-deed celebrate the laying of a corner stone from which has sprung the splendid edlfloe whose grand proporUons arouse the pride of every American citlxen: but our celebration is chiefly valuable and significant because this edifice was designed and planned by great and good men as a place where the principles of a free representative govommont should' be developed to patriotio legislation for the benefit of a free people. If repre-sentat lves who here assemble to make laws for their fel low countrymen forget the duty of broad and disinterested patriotism and legislate in prejudice and passion or to behalf of seoUonal and self ish interests, the t ime when the corner stone of our capitol was laid and the drcumstanoes surroundtog i t wil l no t be worth commemorating.

"The sent iment and the tradit iens connected with this strupturo s o d its uses belong to all the people of tbe land. They are most valu-able as reminders of patriotism in the dis-charge of pubilo duty and sMadfastness in many a struggle for the public good. They also furnish a standard by which onr people measure the conduct of those chosen Q> serve them. Tho inexorable OR-pllcation of this s u n d a r d will a lways supply proof that our countrymen realize the value of tht free Institutions which were designed a « l built by those who laid tha corner s tone of their capitol, and that they appreciate tho ne-cessity of constant and jealous watchfulness as a condition indispensable to the preserva-tion of these institutions in their purity and in-tegrity.

"I bel ieve our fel low cit izens have no greater nor better cause for rejoicing on this centennial than is found in the assurance that their public servants who assemble in these hal ls will watch and guard the sentiment and tradlUons that gather around this celebration, and that to the days to come those who shall again commem-orate the laying of the corner s tone of their na-tion's capitol will find to tht recital of our p e r formance of publie duty no l ess reason for en-thusiasm and congratulations than we find In recalling the wisdom and virtue of those wlic hare preceded us."

The first section of the t r a in ea rned one Ohio A; Mississippi s leeper for Louisville, Ky., one Ohio & Mississippi cha i r car for Greensburg, Ind. , five day coaches and baggage and express c a m I t had r u n down t h e road to a po in t t w o and one-half or three miles south of Manteno when a local t r a in which was preceding i t a t some dis tance slowed up and t h e flag-man on t h e local was sent back up the t r ack to In tercept t h e on-coming first section of t ra in No. 46 f r o m Chicago.

The first section was n o w a t a s tandst i l l and the locomotive pu l l ing the second section had no t in t h e leas t lessened i ts fu l l speed of 35 miles an hour. The curve in the t rack , beh ind which the t ra in on ahead w a s n o t visi-ble. w a s much too nea r the doomed coaches to al low the eng ineer of the approaching t ra in to diminish h is speed noticeably.

The f r an t i c flagman, seeing the t ra in coming on wi th a g r e a t ru sh and hissing of s team and t rembl ing , jumped down the s teep e m b a n k m e n t just in t ime to save himself f rom dea th . The engineer, upon observing t h e d a n g e r as his locomotive rounded the curve reversed his engine , seeing the hopelessness of any a t t e m p t to check tho speed of h is t r a in in so shor t a distance, and realizing t h e danger , ho jumped f rom his cab down the embank-m e n t and his fireman fol lowed him.

The crash came then, and the loco-motive drove ahead wi th migh ty fo ice in to the heavy sleeplng-car ,smashing the f r amework of i ts rear end in to k indl ing wood. The sleeping car was in t u rn driven in to the day coach n e x t fo rward , which gave way more completely, its t imbers being l ighter .

Some were crushed under beams and be tween the broken, gr inding t imbers of the wrecked cars. Awfu l confus ion and f r i g h t prevailed.

People f rom farmhouses in the vicin-ity heard the crash when the collision occurred. T w e n t y men were on the scene wi th in half a n - h o u r and began he lp ing uninjured passengers and train-men in the work of rescue. One b r a w n y fellow, whose h a t had b lown off and who hadn ' t stopped to p u t on his coat , was the first to arrive. He lived near the r i gh t of way.

One reason why Scott's Emulsion of Pure Nor-wegian Cod Liver Oil and Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda has had such a large sale is because it is "Almost as palatable as milk;" but the best reason is that its curative properties are unequalled. It cures the cough, supplies the waste of tissues, produces flesh and builds up the entire system.

SCENE OP THE ROBBERY.

The engineer t h o u g h t he w a s fooling or was a lunat ic , b u t t h e gun w e n t off, t he bal l whizz ing p a s t Schuler 's ear. T h e fellow pushed the engineer in to t h e corner of t h e cab and grabbed the a i r -brake lever to keep t h e engine moving s lowly. H e opened the th ro t -t le s l ightly, s h o w i n g perfec t fami l ia r i ty in hand l ing a n engine.

Two more robbe r s had In the m e a n -t ime got upon t h e f r o n t end of the ex-press car and wi th a sledge smashed in the car door. T h e y ordered the ex-press messenger to pu t the con ten ts of h is safe In a bag which one of t h e rob-bers carried. The messenger immedi-ately complied and handed out some 170,000 consigned to the Calumet & Hecla mine.

Af ter secur ing the booty the robl iers fired a volley, and the one who w a s guard ing t h e engineer and fireman ordered the fo rmer to "go aheaa, quick." H e did.

CALUMET, S e p t 10. —George L a Lib-erte, a locomotive fireman lately dis-charged f r o m the Duluth, South Shore & At lan t ic ra i lway, has been ar-rested, supposed to be the man who hand led the th ro t t l e on Eng inee r Shuler 's engine a t t he t ime of the t r a in robbery Fr iday . He is said t o have made a con/es-sion impl ica t ing King and his com-panions, and also Express Messenger Hogan. La Llber te told the officers t h a t t he money was contained in a t r u n k which he shipped f r o m Houghton to Marque t t e Sa turday morning. The t runk w a s found by the officers, b u t the money w a s not there. The officers now feel t h a t they have the r i gh t men and made no mis take in hold ing King and his companions.

La Liber te ' s confession shows t h a t he covered the engineer and fireman while t h e o thers looted t h e t ra in . King smashed the express car door wi th a s ledgehammer; Chellew and But le r rifled the safe, and the r e s t car-ried away the plunder. He Implicated Express Messenger D. W. Hogan, of the Minera l E a n g e t ra in , which was robbed, whose a r res t fol lowed a t Han-cock.

On L a Liber te ' s Informat ion $14,000 was recovered by the officers, i t is claimed. T h e empty condit ion of the t r u n k Is accounted fo r by the sugges-tion t h a t t he money was stolen a scc-ond t ime f r o m the robbers themselves.

The men now under a r res t are: A. S. Cannon, of Hancock, a young mau of

good family, whose trung was used to curry away the money: John Ling, an athlete; Chel-lew, a saloonkeeper, of Ncgaunee: Michael and John Shea, saioonists here; Tom Winters, bag-gueeman: Moses Lojgtin, brakeman on tho train robbed: D.

size. *viih Hie exhibi ts artistically a r -ranged anri are also represented in the vast Mam.fsctures, Hort icul tural , Min-

Dakota building conies first and down a

vhrious products placed with ^reat skill —her f ru i t being very fine. Huge col-umns of polished jasper, also solid

blocks, beautiful indeed, remind one of the Heavenly City, with specimens of

American tin, nickel ore, etc., f rom the Black Hills. Copy of the New England Journa l of April 8,1728; Bohemian Bible

mosaco and minsrsls . f rn l ta of all kinds

—here we find the largest apples a t the fair—weight Slj- oz.—too b;id they did not go 2 lbs. each, and other f ru i ts in

proportion. One solid piece of coal weighs 50,250 lbs. The fancy work

shown here is but a repetition of the wonderful skill shown in overy buiIHmg

by woman's work of all kinds, the c rowning glory of which we find in Woman ' s Bnilding. Here Jre find the

grandest of ar t is t ic work of all kinds, I wonderful skill in needlework, in fact ,

j we are proud tha t woman's work is so

j beautifully represnted f r o m every coun j try on the globe. Iceland has a grand

exhibi t of different kinds. Ant ique J jewelry is very fine. U tah ' s silk exhib-| it is very beautiful . Woman 's work in

| savagery, of all kinds, is beyond de -i scriptlon, including the most beautiful laces t ha t eyes ever saw, bead work and

pottery. Prehistoric industr ies in lace work, also ancient and modern work, all t ruly a s tudy for lovers of lace, and

t ha t by North American Indians as fine as any.

California has a grand exhibi t m all

hpace to tell of her f r u i t . New Jersey ! has joined with California in an out -

door exhibit of water lilies of ail colors and wondrous beauty.

Illinois s ta te building is like Woman ' s

bnilding fo r ingenious brain creations, for its wonderful constructions, for-mations and draperies in corn, its f ru i t ,

its fountain in na tura l rocks, its case of lovely flowers made from the honey

comb of bees, which will nei ther break when frozen, or melt in the sun . Also

beautiful flowers made f rom c o m and

other seeds, exhibit of fish, ferus, eto.

The Lord's prayer cu t in a panel of solid wood is beaut iful ly executed by a boy 18 years old.

Wisconsin is well represented In her

building, also in Fisheries building, as a re many other sUiles, The Aquar ium

Is well worth going miles to see. In this as some other buildings, cataracts^pour

down natura l rocks, m a k i n g a lovely scene.

New York state has an exhibit of grandeur in every depa r tmen t .

Hort icul tural Building has its bell of

1776 made of oranges, and loveliest f ru i t ever seen of all kinds. One could stay

here a whole week, aa in Manufactures

Building. Lovely vines f rom Paris o r -naxrent the grounds and by the way, tho " Is land" is a "gurden of Eden , " complete.

In Manufactures building all coun-tries have joined In rich displays of

every conceivable th ing made on ear th . Richest of carpets f r o m Persia; sculp-

tu re f rom Rome of marvelous beauty; Norway's exhibi t in wood, something

remarkable; Bruflsells'porcelain, elegant - m u s t be seen to be appreciated.

England h a s a rich exhibi t in yold and silver ware.

Carriages are shown of every make,

und we hud the pleasure of seeing the

one once used by Daniel Webster and ex-president Polk.

The miningexnib i t is very interesting. All should see the Libbey glass works

and the dress made of spun glass.

One may also see Greeley's expedition

and Columbus 'sh ip and a J12,000 hearse owned in Chicago.

Af te r traveling all day wi thout seeing

more than one famil iar face, how good the word "Michigan" looks—on the h igh

tower of t ha t building tha t adds so much to the comfort of her people—and( 'her ex-hibit all may be proud of.

In reading this you will get an idea of about one-mill ionth pa r t of usefu l and ornamental articles to be soeu.

A few evenings since a number of newspaper men were in an office await-ing the arr ival of a gentleman who was to call together a meeting tha t they had been directed to report for their respec-tive papers.

A number of topics was discussed, and one of these was dreams and the extreme rapidity wi th which mental operations aro performed. A number of experiences were given, b u t tho one tha t at tracted tho most at tention was tha t of

a Call representative, who narra ted what ho had dono in a dream.

" I t was." said he, " in 1868 that a f te r a hard day's work I r ead ied home and lost no time in retiring. Glancing at the clock as I turned off tho gas 1 noticed that it was just 16 minutes af ter mid-night .

In the first place, it is not the business of governments to maintain prices for any-body. But. beyond this, the value of silver has been steadily falling since we took up legislation in favor ol silver in 1878. Then the ratio was about 17-4-now it is about 28:1. In short , the causes affecting the value of silver are shown, by our own experience since lb78. to be indepondent of the action of our Congress. I t is not within our pow

All f r u i t is said to be most wholesome the first th ing in • tbe morning—and surely no f r u i t is so cleansing a n d re-freshing aud very little so delicious at tha t hour as a big juicy melon, cooled over night and almost cracking open and voluntarily exposing its red hear t a f te r tbe knile has gone part ly through i t Such a melon, however, is j u s t as good a t other hours iu the hot days, fo r which i t seems to be especially provided as a refreshing experience, something more than the shadow of a great rock in a wear)- land. I t is no wonder the south-ern darkies aro so fond of watermelons. In these most t ry ing days of the loug summer of the south the melou is more ref reshing than chill dewdrops on the early morning grass, aud to the over-heated. overwearied and thirs ty soul a good juicy ripe oue "comes home to the busiiiess and the bosoms" of darky and white man al ike.—Hartford Times.

A Woman Who Got Along.

The ability of a woman to get on alone in the world ia sometimes questioned by her big brothers. But there are plenty of instances where women have been lef t in circumstances which would t r y the powers of the s toutest hearted m a n to the utmost and have come out tr i-n m p h a n t One of these was mentioned to s reporter the other day in connection wi th a rough side hill f a r m in a remote par t of an inland town. "There ," said our informant , point ing to the place, "lived Aunt Abby S when her hus-band died. She then had three children, and another was b o m af ter . The f a r m waa in poor condition and had about all the mortgage i t could bear. Her husband's old father , feeble and fussy, was lef t on her hands.

"Did she send the old man to the poor fa rm, think you? N o t a b i t of i t . She kept him a year or two, and he was BO fussy she couldn't live wi th him. Then she hired a neighbor t o t ake him, and she paid his board 12 years, when he died. She raised her children and b rough t the f a r m into good condition. She paid the mortgage, and when she died she lef t a good property f ree and clear of all debts. The boys hadn ' t the old lady's spunk, for there 's a mortgage u p there now, and nothing in the world b u t lazi-ness did i t They had everything lef t ready to their hands and ain't had no drawbacks, 'cept losin their mother, bu t somehow the weeds have got the s tar t of 'em, and I guess they'l l keep i t "—Lew-iston Journal .

For example: If 30 seconds elapse be-tween the flash of the l ightning and the crash of thunder , the s torm center is at a distance of 33,000 feet, or abont 6} miles. An almost accura te calculation can be made by using a watch wi th a minu te dial.—St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Uae Pure Water Freely. Unhygienic habits report themselves

unmis takably in the skin both in color and odor. To health and beauty i t is

| essential t ha t one should use pure water 1 (rain wa te r is best) f requent ly and free-I ly and follow i t s use wi th brisk fr ict ion I all over the body with a piece of coarse j flannel, which is a wonderfu l aid to a

soft and glowing skin, as i t s t imulates heal thful circulation. Sun and air ba ths are necessary to the proper nutr i t ive func t ions of the skin, and daily at ten-tion to the promptings of na tu re is im-perative t o save i t f rom becoming a ve-hicle for offensive exhalation. Care will do much to pu t off the evil day of wrin-kles and decay.—Exchange.

Worse Thau WtcUed. j If more people understood t h a t any , appearance of baste or carelessness was

out of place in formal correspondence, they would not use such expressions as

' " m a n y thanks" any more t h a n the hard-ly less objectionable phrase, " thanks , " in conversation. Such enr tness is like the old story, " W o r s e t h a n wicked; it 's vulgar ."—Philadelphia Press.

Will's Grave.

"Tha t grave on the right hand of the pa th as you go down t o the porch door; t h a t heap of airth wi th no growth, not

one blade of grass on i t—that 's Wil l Pooley's grave t ha t was hanged un jus t -ly."

"Indeed! Bu t how came such a shock-ing deed to be done?"

" W h y , you see. sir. they got poor Wil l down to Bodmin, all among stran-gers. and there were bribery and false swearing, and an un jus t judge came down—and the j u r y all bad rascals, tin and copper men—and so they all agreed together, and they hanged poor Will. But his f r iends begged the body and brought the corpse home here to his own parish, and they tu r f ed tbe grave, and they sowed the grass 20 times over, but ' twas all no use. nothing would ever grow—hs was hanged unjus t ly .

A Toleeraph Line Before Morse'a. Honor to the poineers in the vas t field

of science! Mr. J o h n Sime has published a t t he Chiswick Press in pamphlet form a very interest ing memoir of Sir Francis RonaldB. Twenty years before Wheat -stone and Cooke or Morse had patented their improvements in the telegraph, in-deed while the first two were respective-ly lads of 12 and 14 years of age, Ro-nalds had sent messages over eight miles of overhead wires of his own construc-tion and had laid and worked a service-able underground line of telegraph of sufficient length to demonstrate the practicability of communication by tele-graph between long distances.

Details of his overhead telegraph wires were published by him iu 1828. Ro-nalds ' residence a t Hammersmith , where these experiments were carried out, is the house now and for long past occu-pied by Mr. Wil l iam Morris, t he poet, who has caused a tablet to be placed on the wall bear ing the inscription, "The first electric telegraph, eight miles long, was constructed here in 1816 by Sir Francis Ronalds, F . R. S.," etc. An autotype facsimile of a port ra i t of this father of electric communication ac-companies the publication. — London Telegraph.

Calculating the DUtance of a Storm. Although l ightning and thunder occur

always Bimultaneously, an interval of shorter or longer durat ion is usually ob-served between these two phenomena, j which is due to the fact tha t sound trav-els only nt the ra te of 1,100 feet per sec-ond, while the passage of l ight is almost instautuueous. Based upon this fact , it is an easy ma t t e r to tell, a t least approx-imately. how many miles a thunder-storm is away. A normal pulse will j beat about one Btroke to the second, aud by counting the pulse beats dur ing the interval of the l ightning and the thunder I t he lapse of seconds is arr ived a t and consequently the number of feet, which can be reduced to miles.

"1 thank you. sir." '1 thank my good fortune 1 was so

"None but the brave"— sneered the i young man.

"be quiet," said the policeman, so sav agely the utlerer of the sneer fountl it conveUK-nt to walk away a short dis lance. The physician began to question her as to jtossible injuries.

To all inquiries the young lady made Bilch as indicated no Kerions dam-

age had been done, although she was evidently much shocked.

"I ('.o not think the yonng lady bas sustained any injuries beyond a few bruises." said Dorison. 'She was strnck by the shoulder of the borse nearest her. 1 am certain nothing else touched her not even a horse's hoof."

"Then," said the physician, ' l am thankful to be able to say that a slight stimulant is all that will be required to

TICAL DISCISSIONS ;• One pn»pect.j« for Ins part, which enabled him to reach her naughti ness as to taake a repetition of the

bearing, whose head was covered with snow white hair, while a mnstache ns white swept across his face and lost It-self in soft, silken white whiskers. With perfect breeding he stated the purpose of his call to be wholly that of thanking Mr. Dudley for the inestimable service rendered his daughter, nnd not only, he said, did he convey the thanks of the

Him

But he reached forward and, catching other members of the family, but of the b61" by the arm, tried roughly to pull young lady herself, who, she was quite j l , o r *•> him. as ho said, with a taunting certain, at the time of the accident had 'augh: not shown proper appreciation of what she had been saved from by Mr. Dud-ley's quick wit and ready hand.

All of this overwhelmed Dorison, who was really a modest fellow, and he felt that shamefaced ness at being so much thanked manly men ever do. By a strong effort he pulled his wits together and met the courtesy in a well bred manner, avoiding the error of treating a service the beneficiaries regarded impor-tant. aa trivial, as ill bred people are so apt to do. This in tum impressed Mr. Eustace. They glided into a general chat of a few moments, when the caller arose and again renewing his distin-guished considerations, expressed the

"No. yon don't, my bird. Come here and give me a kiss."

"Let me go," cried the girl, struggling to free herself. "Let me go. you big loafer, or I'll call the police.

"Or. Johnny the Grip, eh? Oh. no. yon don't go until you give me a kiss."

He bent over in an endeavor to carry out his threat when she dealt him a smart blow upon his cheek with her open hand.

With an oath he made a motion as if to strike her, when a policeman, running from the comer, cried out

"None of that, now." Dorison. before whose eyes this scene

had been enacted so rapidly that he ho|>e the day was not far distant when | could not interfere, supposed the cry of the yonng h'dy might thank him iu per-8*111, but in such general terms and in such tone that Dorison instantly felt that be would be a cousumihate fool if he were to lake the expression to be any-thing more than a polite courtesy

He accompanied Mr. Eustace to the d*or, and In doing so passed into another light, giving Mr. Eustace for the first time a fair opportnuity to observe his face.

"Good heavensP exclaimed the old gentleman, startled out of his propriety. "What a marvelous resemblance. Sir, are you related in any way to Reuben Dorison?"

Too well disciplined in this direction to be taken aback, Dorison replied:

"The gentleman is unknown to me.

the policeman was addressed to the ruffian, but to his surprise he saw him seize the girl.

"I've been looking for this Now I'll take you in."

"I've done nothing," said the girl in alarm "He insulted me for no reason."

"Oh yes! Of course. That's likely," cried the officer, scornfully.

"Officer." interposed Dorison, 'you will do an act of injustice if you arrest this young woman. 1 was a witness of the whole thing."

"Do yon know this Woman?" "No, I don't, bnt 1 know she was not

to blame in this matter." "Well, 1 do." persisted the officer. "Whether you do or not," replied

Dorison, "yon mustn't arrest her for
