Chicago Fire.

The most remarkable art produc
ton of modern times is said to be
the new Cyclorama of the Chicago
Fire located on Michigan Avenue,
in that enterprising city. The great
work is reported to have cost nearly
a quarter of a million of dollars, and
shows in very realistic and wonder
full manner the great fire of 1871.
The observer is placed in an ele.
waited position on the site of old Fort
Dearborn, immediately south of the
Rush St. Bridge, and from this his
toric spot views this grand and awe
inspiring scene. To the southwest
lies the business portion of the city,
a smouldering mass of red hot ruins,
the great north side is a sea OF
flames, while along the lake shore
are two or three streets that are
doomed, but not yet destroyed, CIV
ing here a glimpse of the old Chi
cago of ante-fre days. The scene
along the lake shore in and about
the old U. S. Marine Hospital and
the Rush Street Bridge is one OF in
descrlbable coniusion-thousands OF
helpless and homeless in a wild and
furious fight for safety. The whole
effect is sublime and awful in the
extreme.
Unusdal care was taken to make
this graad work worthy of the sub
iect, and above all, to have it his
~torically correct. Professor David
Swing and other eminent authorities
pronounce the whole a faithful por-
trayal OF this great historic event. 1t
will remain as one of the sights of
the city until after the Worlds Fair.

S. Gumbinner, the wide-awake

has been on visit to the min
ing camps of this vicinity, direct
ing attention of mine-owners to the
inducements offered by his COM
pany and the rare facilities pos
sessed for the reduction of ores
Honesty is their motto, whereby
they make legitimate business and
small margin in smelling and re-
filming ores, and they are the only
company that have stood the test of
time and retain the patronage of
our miners. To assure the vender
of ores just silver quotation, the
day ore arrives at their works on
cars, the quotations for that day
rule. By this provision, the miner
cannot be defrauded. Let us COM
pare this straightforward business
style with that in vogue at sampling
works. The sampling works pay
the day of sampling, which means
that you wait their option, and
when silver is fuctuating, they
always manage to quote you the
lowest figures of the week, the mar
gin they thus make often amount
ing to hundreds of dollars.
Selby d Co. do an extensive busi-
ness refining silver and gold bullion.
On an average they refine each
month 100000 OF. of silver and
100000 of gold.
Selby & Co., as becomes their

of the Treasury Department. stated to your
correspondent to-day that he would speak
on next Friday in Maryland, on next Mon
day in western New York. and that. as soon
as the condition of the business of his office

liver some speeches. 1t is probable that he
will make one speech in Indiana during the
campaign, and possibly two or three in
Iowa and Nebraska.
There have been some misconstru ctions

with respect to the propriety OF Cabinet
officers making campaign speeches Presi-
dent Harrison has no objection to his Cab

campaign, just so long as they do not let

performance of their official duties. The
President believes that one of the first
duties of Cabinet officer Is to inform the
public of his official Stewardship, and give
the public information on the work of the
administration. This may be done by
speech as well as by annual reports. If the
voters of the country desire official IN.
