dispatch from Oshkosh, dated April so,
says: There is no possible way of arriy-
ing at the loss TO the insurance companies
by the Oshkosh fire, since all the agencies
but one have been burned out, aud the
books are in confusion, while the books Of
one agency are burned. The total loss by
the fire is thought TO be greater than was
first reported, and is now put at 81, 500, 900.
II is estimated in general terms thai the in
surance is 6lly per cent. OF the loss. About
800 families are burned out, and relief is
much needed. The City Council has APP
propriated 1900 for their immediate wants.
There is no encouragement among bust
hess men, and the feeling Is strong that the
rebuilding must commence at once. Sew
eral hours rain to-day failed to extingulsh
the fire which is still burning among the
debris"

DISASTROUS FIRE AT OSHKOSH, WIsCoN-
sIN.-A most disastrous fire, famed by one
OF those fierce western prairie winds, visit
ed the city Of Oshkosh, Wis, Wednesday
afternoon, 2Sth ult. and swept the most
valuable half OF ii, with over 1000 900
worth property, out OF existence. Tho fire
began about one O'Clock in the afternoon,
in Morgan & Brothers saw mill, on the
north bank OF the river, aud from that com.
municated with dozen other saw mills in
the immediate neighborhood, which, with
millions of feet OF lumber piled up in the
yards, were soon one roaring blaze. Fan
ned by the fierce wind which prevailed,
the flames then spread 10 the main streets
of the city, and block after block fell a prey
10 the devouring element till the entire
business and much of the living portion CT
of the city was consumed. The engines
were of no avail against the rapid spread of
the flames, and several times had to he
abandoned. The best one was caught by
the fire, In fact, and WAS burned up. The
burned district is Que and half miles long
by half a mile wide. Among the blocks
destroyed are both the telegraph offices, all
OihNCS, an al tue
hotels but one, including the Beckwilh
house, also Harding's opera house, post
Office, Univorsalist church, nearly every
store and some of the finest residences in
the city. Three lives are reported lost,
and hundreds of persons homeless. TO
add to the horror of the scene, the city was
practically in the hands OF the mob, We'd
nesday night, though an extra police was
on duty. The loss will reach fully S1,0OO,-
900, 1t is thought. Oshkosh, is the capital
of Winnebago county, Wisconsin, and is
situated on both sides of the Fox river at its
entrance into Lake Winnebago. Lumber
has been the staple production of the place,
over Il score OF saw mills cutting some co.
100000 feet or more annually, besides
many manufactures of small lumber being
located there. A considerable business was
also done in grain and Hour, the manufac-
ture OF machinery, tanning, etc. The
growth of the place has been rapid, and its
prosperity unchecked by any reverse,
which will make this heavy blow fall all
the harder

DRAMATIC.

The entertainment given at the town
hall on Tuesday evening, by the young
peoples dramatic club, drew out an aud
fence Of respectable size. In the play
"Blow for Blow" l.. X. Willis took the
part OF Lieutenant, alterward Sir Harry
Linden; ID. F.. Tasker acted the part of the
villain John Drummond; G.. +. Miller
that Of Craddock tho lawyer; b. G. Colby
was Charley Sprays; +. h. Barrows was
DR.. Grace Miss Nellie Perry took the
part Of the twin sisters; Miss May ST.
mnnds that Of Kitty WUbber; Miss Cora
Slearns that Of Sir HaTry's young wife
and Mrs. II. Rowe that of Mrs. MOusey.
These several characters were finely sus-
tained but the effect upon the audience
was somewhat neutralized by an indistinct-
ness Of voice and a lack OF thorough COM
mltment on the part OF some If the actors,
which n few more rehearsals in the same
hall would have remedied. We hope the
club will feel encouraged 10 try again.

PLUNKETT's theatrical troupe played in
Leytze's Hall three evenings this week to
good houses, and much to the satisfaction
of tie public. Mr.. Plunkett has very
good company, among them some actors
of exceptional capacity and skill. Mrs
Plunkett Is always prime favorite and al
ways deserving She is a vocalist of no
mean ability, and as vivacious, versatile
actress has few equals off the metropolitan
stage. The Two Orphans was played on
Monday evening, with Mrs. Plunkett in
the part of Frochard, and considering the
limited stage and other drawbacks, was
rendered in excellent style. We hope at
no distant day to be able to welcome Mr..
Plunkett's troupe to a hall and stage in
our city adequate to exhibit their excel
lence to good advantage.

SISTERS FEsTIvAL--A grand Bazaar and
FAIR, for the benefit of the Sisters of
Mercy, will open in Leytze's Hall, on
Tuesday evening, Dec. 2Sth, and continue
five days, ending the evening of New
Years day. The public are respectfully
invited to visit the Hall evenings, and ex-
anime the fine display of useful and orna-
mental articles that will be for sale ON the
various tables. The managers of the un-
dertaktng wish to remind the people Of
Independence of the financial embarrass-
ment the "good Sisters" are laboring un.
der at present, and earnestly request their
patronage on the occasion alluded to-
Although the Sisters have resided here
some six or seven years, educating and
training large numbers of the youth Of
our city, still this appeal is the first made
on their behalf; consequently, the man.
ayers are confident that the citizens ON
this occasion will appreciate their efforts,
after bearing in mind the fact, that our
Catholic tax payers bear the additional
burden of helping to support the Sisters
while paying their portion of the school
fund, from which they seek no benefit,

PERSONAL. We were favored with a
call, on Tuesday, from Hon. W. E. Fuller,
of West Union, and Hon. John T. Stone
man, of McGregor, the first member of
the next House from Fayette county, and
the latter State Senator elect from Clayton.
Both are genial gentlemen, with whom it
it is real pleasure to exchange IDEAS
They were here to take look at the Hos
pital previous to entering upon their Leg
islative duties; and here we desire to say
that if the State institution located here
could be personally inspected by other
members of the Legislature, with the
ability, good judgment and conscientious
regard for the interests of tn State pos
sessed by Messrs. Fuller and Stoneman,
we should be willing to submit its claims
for further appropriations without argu-
ment Its completion is an absolute and
imperative necessity, and personal obser-
walton is only needed to verify this opinion
in the mind of any intelligent and I'M
biased man.

THE FIRE DEMoN-An exhibition by
Dibolo, the renowned rival of his Satanic
Majesty, assisted by Hernandez, the Cali
fornia Wizard, will be given at Leytze's
Hail. tomorrow, Saturday evening, Dec.
25th, for the benefit of Harry Moody =
The performances of Dibolo are described
as wonderful to the last degree. He eats
live Goals and burning sulphur, allows
melted lead to be poured into his mouth,
draws red-hot bars of iron acress his
tongue, drinks boiling liquor-nothing sim
gular these days-and generally shows an
insensibility to fire popularity supposed to
be only possessed by the gentleman with
the tail down stairs. Signor Hernandez is
unrivalled in his line of performances
Admission 80 cents and 25 cents. No
reserved seats.
