Furniture Factory Fired.

TRAVERSE CITY, Aug. l6.-Last night
about 9:20 p. m. fire broke out in the
chair factory and novelty works be-
longing to William Bitner of this place.
The plant is situated on Boardman
lake and beyond the extent of the city
water main, consequently the fire de-
partment were unable to do much eff
fectual work until the fire had gained
a fearful Roadway. The plant and
lumber lost was valued at SD, 900; In
surance $4,000. About 100 men and
boys will be thrown out of employ
ment, and it 10 doubtful If the plant
will be rebuilt, as Mr.. Bitner is in poor
health. About six weeks ago he met
with q serious fall, being thrown from
his carriage by runaway horse, which
fractured MS hip, and is liable to leave
him cripple for life. He has the
deepest sympathy from the whole city.
The supposition 10 that the fire is the
work of some crank who, II caught,
would receive q mighty rough hand
ling. Much credit is due the many
citizens who turned out to save the
property Of which 80 many felt an ln-
terest IN.

A Forgery and a Fire.

NASHVILLE, Mich, Aug. 15.-Yester-
day morning George Dunn deposited a
check for $500. drawn by Richard
Fraar, with the Farmers & Merchants
Bank OF this place, and at once drew a
hundred on the same. c. A. Hough,
the cashier, being suspicious, telephoped
the Hastings bank on which the check
was drawn. 1t was forgery. Dunn
was arrested, taken to Hastings where
circuit court was IN session, pleaded
guilty, was sentenced for four years at
jackson and taken there last evening.
Yesterday at about l:30 a. m. the Will
Hams Fruit Evaporater plant was dis
covered in flames by the conductor of
the 1:l5 train. The engineer gave the
alarm with the engine whistle, and al
though the fire department turned out
promptly, the entire building and con-
tents burned. The new water works
did good work in preventing spreading
of the fire. Loss 5000, with no insur-

The Pathetic Story Mutely Told BY tho

In the great stream Of human kind
that constantly surges to and fro about
the Brooklyn bridge occurs many q
pathetic scene. One of them attracted
not little attention from the crowd
that pushed and scrambled for the
stairways during the rush hours the
other afternoon, says the New York
Commercial. A trim little old woman
with motherly face and rusty but
scrupulously neat black garb wandered
sadly back and forth, leading by short
chain a handsome Irish setter dog.
About his neck was pretty little sill

advertisement: ''For Sale" The dog

brown eyes at times turning to her APP
pealingly. as though he knew why they
were there and was pleading to be
taken home. Every line of the sweet
old face, the tidy dress, with it's neat
patches here and there, and the faded
shawl, relic Of better times, spoke with
eloquence of refinement in the past that
lily fitted her for the hard buffets of un-
kind fortune in her last days. Many a
sympathetic glance was bestowed on
her as the great throng hurried by, but
no purchaser for her dog stopped to
burden her purse at the expense, as was
evident from the loving caresses she oc-
casionally bestowed on her friend, OF

quite severely wounded and Will prob

knocking out nearly all OF his teeth on
the lower right jaw, the bullet having
lodged in the back part OF the Jaw.
The cause of the trouble Is supposed to
be over Howk's children. whom the
Gray woman had charge of. Howk
had asked her several times TO let him
have one of them, which she would
not do. The public sympathy IS with
Howk, as the Gray woman has very
bad reputation.
Mrs. Gray died about ii o'clock yes

still alive.
There has been considerable trouble
between the parties, Howk's wife hav-

P.lo Al,o, tho Dead Turf King.

Palo Alto, the king Of the trotting
stations, died before the fulfllment OF
the hopes of Senator Stanford, who ex-
pected the old hero OF the turf to scale
his record of 2:089 down to 2:06 before
he died. Pleuro pneumonia was the
disease that carried him of at the sem
ator's farm after a brief illness.
Palo Alto was q bay horse standing
sixteen hands high, and was foaled
April Is, 1882. He was not c~ampaigned
as a two or three-year.old, but showed a
trial at two years old Of 2:204. AS a
fo~ur-year-old Palo Alto won eight races
out OF nine starts, and retired with q
record OF 2:20t. In 1887 and 1888 the
horse was lame and did not start, but
in 1889 he won all his races, five in
number, and wound up the season with
a record OF 2:12t, made at Napa, Cal,
November 16. In 1890 he won three
out of the four races in which he was a
starter, and trotted the fastest mile on
record cas- in a race. Last year he
went against the watch eight times and
on the 18th of November at Stockton,
Cal, driven by Charles Marvin, set a
new mark for trotting stations, 2:0S4,
which stands to-day as the best on
record. His work last year was marvel

The Unparalleled Advancement Made in
the South Since 1881.
How rapid the industrial progress Of
the south has been for decade and now
is-rapid beyond the realization even of
the men that are bringing it about-is
SGT forth in a compact article in the
August number OF The Forum by Mr..
Richard II. Edmonds, late editor of the
Manufacturer Record, of Baltimore,
whose LIES study has been given TO the
subject. Among the most significant
facts set forth by NJ. Edmonds are
these:
Since 1881 the corn crop Of the south
has increased rs per cent, as against II
per cent in the rest Of the country; the
cotton crop has increased from FIVE and
ahalt million to nine million bales-an
increase in value, even with tho pres
emit low price, Of two hundred millions
of dollars; in 1891 there were nearly
4 5000 miles Of railroad in the south,
against less than $4,000 in 1854 gain
OF 81 per cent, as against q gain OF 50
per cent in the rest OF the country.
The passenger traffic OF the same roads
increased during the Same period 800
pcr cent, as against nm increase in the
rest OF the country Of only l6S per cent.
In pig iron manufacture the south's
output jumped from $4,000 tons in
1881 tot ,9l4,O00 in ls91-a gain of 1923
per cent, as against a gain for the rest
OF the country OF IS per cent; in other
words, in 1881 the north and west made
moro than nine times as much iron ne
the south in 1901 they made less than
four times as much. The increase in
the number Of mill operators in the
south was 1875 per cent, as against an

increase in New England of II per cent.
And SO in every line of productive
activity the marvellous rapldity Of in
crease is explained, showing that in
assessed valuations the property Of the
south has in this period very nearly
doubled aud increased from $lS7 per
capita to $2fl-arecord that is probably
without a parallel in tho whole history
OF substantial industrial growth. And
in spite Of the temporary depression
caused by an over-production Of cotton,
the increase goes on.
