capped with only their lives. In few seconds
the whole wooden structure was wrapped in
flames. At times the flames shot up to the
| sky to an almost incredttable distance illu.
minating the city as though hunired elec.
tric light machines were in operation. With
in, probably, thirty minutes from the discov-
cry of the fire the frame of the building had
fallen Mr.. Camp, one of the proprietors, es-
Inmates the loss at $4,000, with an insurance
OF only $4,000, most of which was through
the Insurance firm of Gale d Co. The firemen
did effective work in saving adjoining build
ings, and large quantity of wood and coal
belong ging to the Northwestern fuel company.
The cause of the fire is assigned to hot box.
A part of the machinery and boilers will prob
ably be saved. A small amount of lumber was
burned, also some wood. The mill was in
full operation when the fire caught. They
were running nights, as the season will close
undoubtedly in three weeks, aud they had
quite an amount of logs yet to saw. Mr..
Camp says the building will be replaced 10y
another mill at once.
A dispatch from Duluth of October 4,
gives the following particulars of the late fire
there: The loss by the burning of Burton &
Rich's machine shop foots up between eight
and nine thousand dollars, $4,000 on the build
ing, $500 on stock, and over 5000 on engine
and machinery. The insurance was $500 on
the building, $500 on machinery and engine.
The fire was discovered by the watchman at
the blast furnace, at 12:40 but neither he nor
any one else was able to get into the burning
building on account of the dense smoke. The
fire was evidently incendiary, all fire having
been put out by $50 Saturday afternoon. At
7SO that evening the doors were all carefully
locked but one was found open after the fire
was discovered and five dies known to have
been in the house on Saturday, were found
outside, tied together by string. The con-
tents of the safe were taken out this afternoon
comparatively uninjured. Although the firm
have been doing good business they will prob
ably not rebuild. The insurance was covered
by the Insurance Company of North America
and the Pennsy lvania Insurance Company
both of Philadelphia

sound. For every vice there is virtue,
for every unpleasant quality charm.
Humanity is week in some places, and

IT seems odd now to remember that in
the time of Charles I. heavy fines were
levied on country gentlemen who pre-
ferred dwelling in Lcndon to residing on
their country estates. A certain Mr.. Pal
mer, Sussex squire, was made an exam
pie of by the Star Chamber. He was a
rich bachelor, and pleaded earnestly for
leaf to remain in London, urging the
not unreasonable excuse that his coun-
try house had been burned down, but
his judges fined him 81 900 and ordered
him away.

THE term foolscap is derived from the
fact that Charles I. granted to certain
parties a monopoly of the manufacture
of paper, and every sheet bore IN water
mark the royal arms. The Parliament
under Cromwell made jest of this inevery
conceivable manner, and ordered the
royal arms to be removed from the pa
per, and the FOOLS cap and bells substi-
tuted. These were removed after the
restoration, but paper of the size of the
Parliament journals always retained the
name of "foolscap."
