TIE WISCONSIN FOREST FIRES.

THE "lSCONSlN hO1'SA
The forest fires in Wisconsin continue IN
their work of ruin. We used TO hear much
about the terrible fires that swept over the
western prairieS, but the destruction oil
property was small in these compared with
the great fires that deyastate our Ameri-
can forests.
Up in Wisconsin, six or seven counties
have already been swept by the fire iiend.
What once were towns and villages are
NOW but ashes. The blackened carcaSseS
of horses, sheep, hogs and cattle, and wild
beasts of the forest are scattered every
where. In three counties more than thirty
NELSON'S were burned. But many hunter
in the forest and lumberman in his shanty
has perished ana the story Of his death
will never be told Innumerablc saw
mills and lumber camps and millions OF
feet of lumber went up in the flames
Hundreds of families are homeless.
The destruction OF forests by fire
is serious question in this
country. In the conIlagration I'M
Wisconsin hundreds OF thOuS-
ands OF acres Of the finest timber were de
stroycd. Similar destruction occurs al
most every year. Here in West Virginia
much ofthc hest timber OF the State has
been killed and the soil rendered almost
worthless by periodical fires. And these
fires arise mostly from carcleSSneSs or Il
criminal disregard for the rights Of proper
~ in setting the forests ON fire, merely to
see them burn. The law cannot be en-
forced with too much vigor against such

Innocent Youths and wo,nan's Toilet.


To an innocent young man, if there are
any, wOman's toilet is wild mixture and
still wilder mystery. The plan Of the
wonderful garmentsis an uns0lyed enigma.
and how they are occupied are past finding
out. A man declares feminine clothes
built on the worst possible architectural
design, and proudly displays his back
buttoning shirt and paralytic pants legs az
models to be followed Possibly dislocated
shoulder-blades resulting from refractory
collar-buttons, are preferable to compressed
waists In 'steen-inch cOrsets; but warrant
more prOfane remarks have been addressed
to the meek and lowly collar-buttOn than
to all the c0rsets in America. A woman
doesn't swear; she either cries or bites
something. It's odd that, no matter what
advanced or original ideas the unmarried
man has Of the mysterious and unhealthy
female dress, the moment he becomes a
married man he loses all interest in the
subject. Possession discloses 80 many Sc
crets that he wisely shuts his eyes and
holds his tongue.

Things Booming In an Iron Way-Thc
Furnace.

SpcriR C0rrcspDndcnrc Cfhc Rcgih,r.
lRONDALE FURNACE, PRESTON Co., w.
VA, August i3.--Thc furnace at this
place, which is owned by Col. Ncmcygie,
of New York, and which was closed down
some months ago for enlargement and re-
pairs generally, was started up again last
Saturday, and there is every indication
that in few days this furnace will turn
out 10 tons of Iron per day. 1t gives en-
plOyment to $50 men, and the average pay
roll is So 900 per month. Col. Ncmcygie
claims that he can make iron cheaper
than any other furnace in the country,
and the iron is Of the grade known
rs Nos. | and ., or foundry iron. The
iron is nearly all shipped to Cleveland, o.
The advantages possessed by this fur
mace for making iron at nominal cost
are these: Everything necessary for manu-
featuring iron is to be had on the lands
adjacent to the furnace, and Colonel Mem
cygic has railroads leading tO his ore bank,
coal bank and coke ovens and limestone
quarry, 80 that the cost Of transportation
from these points ri hit to the furnace is
nominal. The ore contains 60 per cent. Of
pure iron.
1t is needless 10 say that times are boom
ing here, and it is to bc hoped that West
Virginia will be blessed with more such
enterprises rs this in the near future

NoN-CoNsrrMING CoNs1rMFRs

NoN-CON = U MING CONSU MERS.
Apropos of the discussion in the cham
Der OF commerce yesterday on the subject
OF smoke consumers, points both for and
against the consumer were very clearly
brought out. The matter can be briefly
summed up. 1t is admittedly desirable to
prevent as far as possible the daily pouring
forth OF huge volumes of dirty smoke from
hundreds of chimneys. If an apparatus
can be procured which will effectually do
away with this nuisance without placing the
manufacturer or other owner under uni ust
expense, then the consumers should be re-
quired by law. With considerable Justice
1t is urged that the appliances now in use
are too costly. Doubtless, however, Amer
lean ingenuity will devise before great
while an apparatus in every way success
full. The consumers supposed at present to
be in operation accomplish the purpose for
which they were intended very &C
ceptably when they are in use.
The trouble is that because of the
expense in operating or for some more
occult reason they are not in operation one
half OF the time. In consequence the smoke
evil is as great as ever. If the authorities
intend to enforce the purchase of consunl-
ers they should render the compulsion
more effective by also enforcing their use
at all times. Without something of this
kind, unless an apparatus is soon discovered
which can be operated with little or no ex-
pense, the smoke consumers now in this
city are worse than useless. A glance at
the smoke-shrouded sky at any time of the
day will demonstrate the truth of the as
Sartion

TAWDRY TITLES.


English peerages are rapidly becoming
simple excuses for extinguishing the infu-
ence and personality of distinguished COM
moners. Already SALISBURY, endeavor-
ing to remove from his path several bril-
liant men whose opposition and political
ambition promises to materially interfere
with the furtherance of his own schemes,
has offered them the empty honor of peer
age. Taxing advantage Of that innate En-
glish trait which, while it causes every En-
glishman ito dearly love lord" still more
decidedly prompts him to dearly love to be
lord, he expects to send Sir ASHTON
CROSS and Sir MICHAEL HICKs-BEACH
to the upper house for life, and
thus quietly shelve them. The En-
glish house of lords is already made
up of a large proportion of titled
nonentities. The brains, talent and actual
governing ability of England's legislators is
concentrated in the commons, and there
are dozens of men in that body whose dis
tnction the comforting of title would mar
rather than augment. In fact, among
prominent English statesmen the non-pos-
session Of title is becoming a more sure
indication of distinction than its possession.
Who, for instance, would not regret to see
Mr.. GLADSTONE exchange the name under
which he has won his present fame for a
cheap and taWdry title which could add
nothing to the lustre of his greatness? The
time is coming when peerages in England
will be thing of the past. Perhaps no
more etfectual method of bringing about
this extinction could be devised than this
wholesale creation of new peers by each
new premier. 1t is a result that cannot be
brought about too quickly.
