Fri1ay Morning, May II, 1879.


About halt past niue O'Clock last
evening, fire broke OFT in the vacant
barn, formerly occupied by. Geo. Sny.
der as Livery Barn. . =
THK BUILDINGS
burned, are p. A. Houses wagon
shop, Livery barn, Woodnorth's sa-
hon, V"sburg House aud stable,
Gilmoru's clothing store, ltale's Res.
tsurant, Perkins, Art Gallery, DR.,
:ecu,,'s Dentist office, the Post Office,
Wares saloon, Mrs. Thorn's MILNE
ny store, and dwellings Meade store,
vacant, and Meade's Bank.
The loss cannot yet be estimated
but will probably lot fall far short of
SIS, 900. 1t would have been four
times tn t amount, but he contents OF
most OF the buildings were saved.
There was no Insurance on any OF
tie buildings, except $3.50 on the =.
%. Tho companies refused 10 take
the risks.
The Court House came very near
burning. 1t did take fire once or
twice but was pnt out.
This is a heavy dlow 10 our village
OF Wanpaca. by far the hardest
that ever fell upon it. Bat there is
grit here aud nobody thinks Of sit
ting down to dcspond. Vacant
rooms in town have been engaged,
and those who lost their places Of
business will open out again IN day
or two.
The Court House square was filed
with every description of goods, and
household furniture. This was car.
riel INTO the courthouse after the
fury Of the fire had aba,ed.
1t IS the generally accepted opin'
ion that tho lire is the work Of an.
ccnllary. 1t looks very strange that
two fires should lIavc taken, in an
nnexposel pace within four days oI
each other. But gho we're the men
and what the motive, remains as yet,
a mystery.
We cannot close the hurried and
very imperfect account, withou. pay.
| ing tribute To III. women of w aI.
paca. The effort OF men seemed to
sink into the shade by the side OF
them. They, worked carrying water,
taking out goods and one lady actu.
ably took every door and window
from Mrs. Thorn'S Millinery Store.
They are heroes. llerolnes is too
tame. God bless them, one and all.

RaitrOad Intelligence.

The Tomah Journal of the 18th
inst, says: Z" We are gratitied to be
able TO announce IN this ;ssnc that
the work OF preparing the read bed OF
the Wisconsin Valley Railway has
b en- commenced at this point, and
will be pushed with the utmost sig'r
until the road is in operation between
Tomah and Grand Rapids. The sub
contract for this first division has
been let TO Mcssrs. Remington,
Powers d Co., by the iowa aud WIS
consin Construction Company, aud
their work is to be fully completed
on or before the the lst of September
next.
| A large squad Of men, with horses
wagons and implements, passed
through here on Sunday morni, < on
their way TO Dextcryilie for the pur'
pose Of working on the railroad now
under way from that place to Grand
Rapids. The head oil the gang OF
men spoken of is az active, sharp
business man, and Whatever labor he
undertakes vii! be put through with
energy and dispatch.
The people OF Dexterville ana the
surrounding country aud adjacent log
g,ng camps, look for great result
from the completion OF this road.
They expect that in a short time II
will cause their little hamlet to spread
INTO populuu3 city, aud that Dexter
vile viii become one of the impur-
tant business points in tn northwest.
The other day we heard one Of the
least sangune of the citizens OF Dex-
terville predict that before Two years
time they would have newspaper
published at that place that would
rival and "punch up" the Grand
Rapids Reporter. We hope the road
will be OF much advantage to Dcx-
terylIlc, but we apprehend that III c
