EAU CLAIRE, Wis, Aug. 9.-Additional
reports from the section where fires are
raging is furnished by passengers on the
late evening trains, and fully confirm the
kilograms that appeared in the GLOBE this
morning. A brisk wind to-day has given
the tlreS fresh impetus above the Wiscon-
sin Central road, and they are spreading
with fearful rapidity in every direction.
The entire state seems to be in blaze, and
the damage already accrued knows no
bounds. The fire reports from Prentice

pot and hotel were burned, the citizens

and saving other property which was
threatened. The Jump River company's
mill lumber and other property was saved.
The fires are working in this direction this
evening, but no danger is feared as to
private property, as the people will be
equal to the emergency should danger
threaten.

has just returned from all exploring trip
through the forest on the upper Chippewa
and toward the Superior region. He re-
ports the destruction of standing pine and
hard wood beyond calculation. The fire
extends in many places to the roots of the
trees, two and three feet below the surface,
and burns with the animation of tinder.
Tha smoke in the woods is next to unen-
durable. He says the fire is
MAKING GREAT HAVOC
along the river twelve miles this side of
Superior, and what few farms there are in
that district are completely burned and the
crops and considerable other property de-
stroyed. The fire extends from that part
all along the Superior & Omaha road nearly
to Chippewa Falls ten miles north of here.
To look at the grain fields is a pitiable
sight, all of them having as sombre an ap-
pearance as coal. This evening flames are
reported to have broken out on the Chip
pewa bottoms SIX miles north of here, but
as the country is thickly settled they can
be easily controlled. The extent of dam
age is comparatively light, the principal
losses being confined to fences and grain
stacks embracing many places within a

Serious Accident,

Shortly after noon yesterday a very
serious accident happened to Chinaman
at the corner of the lane leading to the
Bishops College, Nuuanu Valley. Mr.. S.
G.. Wilder, Jr., rode home to his lunch, as
usual, on a young colt. After arriving at
his house he took off the bride and tied
the horse to a post with rope. Some
thing frightened the animal, and he broke
loose and dashed out of the yard on to
Judd street at full gallop. He turned on
to the Nuuanu Valley road and started
down the hill for town. At the corner of
the Bishops lane Chinaman was trying
to get out of the way of the animal, but
becoming nervous, he failed to do SO, and
the furious beast dashed against him,
knocking him down with great force. He
was picked up directly afterwards by some
natives, seriously hurt, and taken to the
Queens Hospital. DR.. Henri McGrew
attended him, and found that one side of
the scalp was torn off and the temple
arteries were laid bare. One ear was badly
grazed and bruised and one eye was closed.
The doctor made him as comfortable as
possible, and thinks he may recover.
After the horse had knocked the man
down it broke an iron fence and dashed
into the Hebron premises, but soon after
left them near the lower gate. He was
stopped in his mad career directly after
wards without doing any further damage.
The animal was badly injured on one
knee and also in the side. Mr.. James
Brodie, V. s., was called to look at the
horse, but will not be able to decide for
few days what may be the result of the
