THE BURNING OF yEsPER.
Seventeen Families Have Been Rem,
dered Homeless.

Marshfeld, Wis, Aug. 29.-The Port
Edwards train arrived here today,
bringing additional news of the burn
ing of Vesper. The town is practically
wiped out, entailing a loss of about
$3.50, 900, as follows:
About 10000 900 feet Of lumber and the
large saw and planning mill belonging
Ito the Sperry-Cameron Lumber COM
pany, seventy-three dwellings, two box
cars and the depot Of the Chicago, Mill
wauI1ee & st. Paul road and three box
cars of the Port Edwards, Centralia &c
Northern road. The stock, lumber and
mills of the Sperry-Cameron company,
is reported to be fully insured. The fire
has been burning in that vicinity for
two weeks but at no time did it appear
Threatening. The high wind drove it
beyond control, and like a whirlwind
it broke over the little place with a
fury which rendered all attempts to save
property useless. Seventeen families
employed in the mills are homeless,
and as the timber contiguous to the
town is burned, the place will never be
rebuilt.
