ANEW BIlLDING MATERIAL.

The prevalence and dcstruc,ivcness of the
lire element at this season Of the year, La
been frequently remarked. The largest and
most uncomfortable fires SEEM as general
rule, TO occur in the Winter time There
may be,a scientific explanation for the fact,
the presence of such large quantities of
oxygen in the air, materially increasing the
rapidity of combustion; or il may be due
partly 10 the difficulty Of employing the
means Of checking the flames with as much
CELEBRITY and convenience ~ at other seasons
Thc.snow, the ice forming form the waste wa
ter, the sliifened aud annoying condition of the
tiremens clothes, are all worth considering,
when we remember how easily the working
capacity of man is impaired by aggravat-
ing circumstances. At all events, winter
fires are acknowledged TO be the most dan
gerous and the hardest to deal with. Fire
men dread to hear the alarm on cold win
ter night, especially if the air is astir, for
they know that the irc-fiend will run his
widest course at such q time and the strug-
gle will be fearful one, with odds against
them.
In view of these facts and the recent de-
struciive fires, both at home and abroad,
which We have been called upon to chr0ni-
Gle, The announcement of the discovery of a
new building MATERIAL. practically fire-proof
and admirably adapted in every particular
for popular use, is extremely scasonable

How the .E.thc,c wa. Taken In.

The story that Oscar Wilde had been the
the psthetc was decidedly uncommunicaive
before his departure, proves to be correct. A
Tribune reporter has earne., that on Decem-
Der IA the poet was walking in Broadway
featured and well dressed young man stopped
him and extended his hand Excuse me-
Mr.. Wilde" the stranger $ i'd "tut am
son of Mr.. Drcxel, of the firm of Drexel,
Morgan 4 Co., the Wall street bankers.
Having seen you once or twice IN my fathers
office, hope YOU will pardon me for intro.
ducng myself" Mr.. Wilde had been in Mr..
Drexel's Office on business, and he was taken
n his guard. He shook hands with the man,
expressed his qualification at the meeting and
accompanied him into neighboring Icsiau-
rant where Mr.. ''DreXel' told story of having
won prize by lottery drawing. lie in
duced Mr.. Wilde TO accompany him 10
house in either Fifteenth street or Seventeenth
street. between Second and Third avenue
(Mr Wilde could not find the place after
ward), and led hm into room where two or
three other men were throwing dice. The
poets friends insisted on making Il throw for
him, and Mr. Wilde was told that he had
won handsome sum. Gradually, us the
play went on, Mr.. Wilde became Interested
in the game, and then he lost steadily. At
length he was Informed that his losses ey-
ceedtd his winnings by $50. He had not
much money in his pocket and he was press.
ed to give check for the amount. lie con-
scented. After few more throws he was
declared loser TO the extent of 800, and
he signed another check for that
amount. His blood was up by that time, and
he made larger ventures only to learn that
he was IN debt $1,000 lie wrote his name
to n check for that sum, and then refused to
play longer 1t had dawned upon him that
he was being swindlcd. Young Drexel made
II loud oulcry, and declared that Mr.. Wilde's
treatment had been outrageous lie persist
ed in accompanying his acquaintance from
the house, but Mr.. Wilde shook him off, ran
for a cab, and fastened 10 the bank before
the swndlers had an opportunity to get any
of the checks cashed.
After stopping payment on the checks
he went to Police Captain Williams and
told him the above story, remarking that
he had made fool of himself. When
Mr. Wilde had concluded his story he gave
Il full description of "Drexel," lie was
asked to take look at the rogues gallery
in the Captains office. His attention was
directed to photograph of Joseph Sslliok,

The Northern Pacific railroad will be open
for through travel by the first of January,
1884, ii not earlier. so at least its managers
confidently expect. A gap of 425 miles in
the territory of Monta ma now remains be-
tween the lermiui of the eastern and western
divisions, which will be reduced to $50
miles before the close of the year, Over
much of this space the heaviest grading has
already been done. The completed road will
measure from Lake Superior to Portland,
Oregon, 1882 miles. or over the Cascade
mountains to Puget sound, when the branch
is built, 1927 miles. From New York to
Portland by the Northern Pacific will he 1916
milcs-almost exactly the same distance as
from New York to San Francisco by the
Union and Central Pacific, the difference
being only four miles in favor of the old
route. From New York to Yokohama by
way Of the Northern Pacific and Puget
sound is 700 miles less than via Sau Francis
co, Upon this advantage of distance and
the prevailing winds Of the Pacific ocean,
which are said to favor a northern passage,
the managers of the Northern Pacihc base
their hopes of building up great trade
with the orient.
The Northern Pacific will be one of the
most attractive routes for pleasure travel in
America, From Lake Superior all the way
through TO Portland the scenery is alter
natcly picturesque, richly beautiful and
wildly grand Hardly any part of the route
is duh or monotonous. The forest and lake
country OF eastern and central Minnesota is
well worth SEEING the rich prairie lands of
western Minnesota and eastern Dakota afford
exquisite landscapes at all seasons. West of
the Missouri river there is touch of alkali
but the land is arabic and far removed from
desolatcnoss or monotony. The bad lands
with their strange eruptions Of the earth into
hills or buttes of singular shape and color are
not only curious but extremely picturesque
Through the valley OF the Yellowstone which
is interseoted by great number OF smaller
streams aud is now largely utilized for cattle
ranges, the journey continues full of interest
and novelty. At Bozeman branch is now
building from the main line 90 or 10 miles
south into the Yellowstone Park. AT this
