DROWN In ESCAPING FROM FIRE.

All the dead were drowned in Elk Lake
while trying to escape from the fire, except
the unknown man, whose body was found in
the ruins of the house of f. W. Sackett, edi-
tor of the Phillips Times. The property loss
can not ct this time be accurately estimated,
but it will reach at least $l,250,000. The i'm
company is a total loss, amounting to be-
tween $500, 900 and $500 900. On this property
there Ian insurance of at least four ffths the
value of the plant. OF the rest of the city
about half of the property was insured. Many
of the poorer people carried no insurance on
their homes and they have lost everything.

New DANGER CoNFRoNrEd THEM

The raft began to sink and with death BY
| fire, facing them on one side and drowning
| on the other, the boats were resorted to, bu
| in the gale they capsized almost instantly
and all perished with the exception of Mr..
Cliss, who was found floating this morning
on the oppositeside of the lake, clinging with
desperation to the boat When it became
evident that the city was threatened with
destruction, the John R. Davis Lumber com
pany made up train of its cars and sought
to take the women and children to place
of safety on the Little Elk branch. The train
had proceeded hut little way. however
when the bridge across the stream was dis
covered to be burned and the train with its
cargo of human freight was forced to return
to the city and
RUN THE GAUNTLET OF FLAME AND SMOKE.
In the meantime. permission had been re-
ceived to use the main track of the Central
road AID the homeless people wore carried
south twelve miles to Prentice. The people
of Prentice opened wide their homes, but
there was not room for all the crowd Of men,
women and children. A telegram was sent
to the governor asking him to send blankets
and tents, together with mess tents for LOCO
people. In response to this the governor
telegraphed tonight that there we're no tents
available at present, but that he would be
here in the morning with sheating. hammers
and nails, and to be ready to begin,the con-
struction of emporary quarters.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS SWEPT AWAY.

In the path Of the fire was the city hal,
court house, city Jail and the Wisconsin Gen.
trail depot and it swept everything 10 the lake.
Thirteen prisoners were in the Jail and three
of them made their escape from the sheriff
when released from confinement. It was
during the first fire that the loss of life oc-
Cured. Driven frantic by the rushing gale
of fame. the families of James Locke, Frank
Cliss and Dave Dryden gathered hurriedly in
their arms all their possessions that they
could and made for floating boat house
that was tied to the town bridge near the box
factory. The ropes were cut and the occu-
p 'nts thought that the gale would drive them
across the lake, where the flames would not
reach them, but the raft was rickety affair
and overloaded, and most terrible of all, the
fire seemed to create a current of air that
pulled them directly toward a great pile of
burning lumber on the lake shore.

TUE sermon 10 the Knights of Py:hias
was preached last Sunday night in the
Methodist church by Rev. L. T.. Morris as
10y announcement. The Knights met in
the Castle Hall at p. IN. After taking up
some little time in conversation and in put
ting on the proper jewels, for permission 10
wear the jewels had been obtained from
the Grand Chancellor, thirty four home
Knights and two visitors formed two and
two on the side walked with Capt. \. H.
Foster and Mr.. W. A. Nicholson IN the lead
and marched in body to the church.
Three rows of seats had been reserved at
the front for the accommodation of the Or
der, so we found little difficulty in getting
seats. In shcrt time Mr. Morris came
in. Then the choir sang. We wish
we could hear that song rendered again as
it was rendered last sunday night To say
that it was beautiful, aud sweet would not
describe it. It was grand, substituting, up
lifting.
Mr.. Morris, addressing himself to the
Knights Of Pythias as un order, his chnrch
theme of brotheriy love and took for his
text one of the most noted sayings that have
come down 10 Us from the lips of our Saviour
namely, the parable Of the good Samaritan.
In the short space that We have we eau
not even give satisfactory synopsis, though
we woull like to give the sermon in full.
| Such subject aud such an occasion must
! have becu an inspiration ; aud the subject
was so handled Nat we believe every knight
must have come away with n mere exalted
| idea of the tie that biuds Us together aud Il
deeper impression as to our duty aud re-
| sponsibility to enc another ami 10 the help
less and needy on every hand. Wo have
heard many comments on the sermon and
| all to the same effect. that the thoughts
were timely aud well presented.
We were glad to sec SO many Knights out
aud were more than glad 10 know that the
odgc here has such u splendid membership,
splendid in quality well as quantity.
Such membership, such an array of men
might well arouse the pride Of any member
of any order. But our membership is not
to be wondered at. \ lad man cannot be u
good knight Of Pythias. If one should &C
soon find that was | nc pitts pitts ltA4' h IL wcu!
h..'e was NO cOugcninlity there for vice or
bad faith. As with the Knight Of old fdel-
lty and valour were sought for, 50 the mod
| ern Knight aims at perfection in Friend
| ship, Charity and ncnervleuce-ihe noblost
sentiments that en- enter into the heart OF
man-cach embracing all get incompl etc
without the other two. Mark the pertec.
Knight AMI you mark the perfect man. lie
who reads good booi may go and forget,
but he who studies Pythiasi.m Is better
citi&2n and better man.

there is n Private Compartment Car,
which certainly represents the ideal
mode of conveyance. Surrounded by
all the comforts and much of the ele-
gance of home, il seems az IL every
possible want OF the traveller had been
anticipated. The space is divided in
to elegant private rooms-five on
each side of the car-entering from
hall running along the side. Each
compartment is provided with COM
plete toilet arrangements, lavatory
with hot and cold water, electric bells
and a handsome gas chandeli er
There is additional room for table.
where one can write letters IL desired.
Sliding doors connect several of the
permitting them 70 he
arranged en- suite. for the convenience
OF families or parties of friends. 1t is
impossible TO describe adequately the
beautiful upholstery or furn ishings of
the car; its cabinet work. in which is
represented a variety of the rarest and
most expensive wond,, it's silken hang
iDgs, or the manifold devices which
contribute so much to the comfort OF
the occupant The Compartment Car
became quickly established in popular
favor, especially by ladies, by whom
privacy and dainty surroundings are
particularly appreciated.
To accommodate those travelling
only in the day time. or snch short
distances rs to make IA sleeping car
unnecessary, the Michigan Central
also runs first class day coaches, con-
structed by the company ut its own
shops. These are as perfect in their !
way. and AS comfortable, not TO say
luxurious as parlor cars.
