! Caroline Fitz Hugh had watched over
Corporal Ratigan every day since his
wounding, and by careful nursing had
doubtless saved his life. It was not for
the corporal to. fall in love with his

wistfully.

would then deserve my fate. "

MILWAUKEE, Aug. 23.-Fire among the
warehouses at the junction of the Mil
waukee and Menominee rivers cost the
railways and others about s4O0. 900 yester-
day with pretty full insurance. Five freight
warehouses were burned, which were
owned by the Chicago, Milwaukee and
st. Paul Railway company, as were tho
docks comprising 1000 square feet. The
railway officials claim that there was
very little freight in the warehouses and
the thirty-dve cars burned, but shippers
and brokers are preparing claims for
thousands of barrels of flour, sugar, oil
and general merchandise, which will
probably aggregate over $4,000.
The loss of the Wisconsin Central Rail-
way company on tho freight house No. 2
and contents, about eighteen freight cars,
is estimated at $4,000. The loss Of tho
st. Paul company on brokers' warehouse
No. l and contents, most of which was
brokers' merchandise, was estimated at
5000. The loss of the Anchor line is
