auench the flames. They smouldered
for time, but burst forth again under
the influence of sun and wind. In the
northern part Of Monroe county
sad state OF affairs exists. and many
lumber settlements have been entirely
DESTROYED. Lives have also been lost In
some quarters. In the space OF country
between White Haven and Gouldsboro,
fifty-tyo houses have been consumed,
with barns and farming implements OF
all kinds. Hardly q house Is lett com

Thirty million feet OF lumber were de-

flames travelled with such rapidity that
nothing could be saved. When the dan

human life, and in many instances that
was not possible. A funeral train was
overtaken in one instance. and the
mourners had to make haste to get out

We cannot imagine what the Madlsonian
expects tc gain, or what incentive promt-
ed it, to drag before the public the private
business affairs of some of our citizens,
unless 1t was dore with the expectation of
getting a little pap from the man whose

business. and we fail to comprehend tie
smallness Of the parties, or the desire of
those parties that sued Col Black to mis-
repgescnt his financial condition. No less
than four of our prominent business firms
sued and attached his property in order to
collect just debts. and no doubt thought
the party little shaky and expressed the
same. Of course it is TO be regretted by

APoPULAR ROAD.
"In these days of ease and luxury it is
quite important that traveller should
know, when going across the country
where there are so many competing lines
as bet4eeE Omaha and Chicago, on W hich
road safety and comfort is most cons ider-

North Western. The present controlling
stock owners of this road are active, en-
ergetic and successful railroad men, who
will never rest easy while any competing
line can cc';pse them in any respect. They
are laying down steel rails, and putting
ION day and night coaches. and sleerers
that outshine anything in the West, ana
their road bed is the Oldest, best located,
land safest Of anv road out of Omaha. The
country through which this road passes is
for beautiful scenery. First
winding under the bluffs of the Missouri,
then up the beautiful valley of the Boyer
river through Cedar Rapids, the most de-
Il;ghtful city in Iowa. Across the Missis-
sippi at Clinton, thence over the highly
cultivated prairies OF Illinois to Chica-
go. The conductors and employees on
these trans are noted for their civility,
and are gentlemen with whom it il
pleasure to do business, who by their
courteous manners and charming affabili-
lily are fast making the Chicago and North
Western the most popular line between
Omaha and Chicago"
n The trains that run over this line are
made of elegant new Pullman Palace
