A SUCCESSFUL SCHEME.-Two dark
les had to carry large desk to the
house of DR.. Blister, who had bought
it at a furniture store. When they ar
rived with the desk he was in and di'
rected them where to put it. The
darkies expected to get at least a quar-
ter apiece for their extra trouble, but
alas! the doctor did not give them
anything at all. He forgot all about
their suffering in carrying the desk uI
too flights of stairs.
They consulted together for mo-
ment in the hall, and then they began
to fight and pound each other, calling
each other all manner of vile names
No such uproar had been heard since
the adjournment of the legislature.
DR.. Blister, hearing the noise, came
out and wanted to know the cause O
the disturbance.
"Dis heah niger KEEP for hisself dt
money what you guv him for us bofe

glib me de money You got de money

That was only the beginning of the
misfortune. A quarter ofan hour later
Tom, the other man, was shot dead on
the spot as he was on the point of fir
ing. Now the defense on the house
had fallen upon one man, upon myself.
And I assure you that my heart sank
down to my feet when I told myself all
that must occur if we wished to escape
destruction. Yet my stubborn courage
did not forsake me. So long as we
still had the boat I would not despair.
But was also to be robbed of even this
consolation. heard an anxious out
cry from the women upstairs "The
boat! the boat is gone!" I sprang up
the stairs, but only saw how the little
boat foated down the stream. One of
the cursed redskins had reached it by
swimming under the water, and cut the
rope that held it fast. With it our last
hope seemed lost!
I took it for granted that, when
night closed in, the Indians, who had
suddenly ceased firing, would renew
the attack. In this case, had no
way of preventing their breaking into
the ground floor of the house. On the
other hand, I thought the upper story
could be defended, at least for time,
with some success. A flight of stone
steps connected the two floors and took
above a sharp turn. In the upper
story were to be found few more
loopholes, through which the steps, as
they turned, could be commanded, so
that it would have been difficult
enough for any intruder to have come
up against the fire from above. One
thing was still fortunate for us, that

The sawmill and planning mill of the
Sutherland Lumber company burned at
o'clock this morning. The total loss
is $4,000; insurance $4,000.
When the iremen were at work they
took out a man badly burned, a wan

in the boiler room. He was half craZed
with pain and in his rawlings mentioned

eharred remains of another man were
found. When the coroner was about
TO put the remains in a coffin the re-
mains of still another man were found
underneath the debris only partially
burned. His face was burned so badly
that it was impossible to recognize the
features. There was door within four
feet of where the two bodies were taken
out.
The three men had evidently gone to
sleep on the boiler and must have rolled
off in the seething mass of flames. The
survivor was so badly burned that he
will not live, one arm being burned en-
tirely off.
A coroner's inquest will be held this
afternoon. 1t is thought that the two

he began business for himself at Lock
port, where he remained until 1914, when
he came to Milwaukee. Beginning with
capital of $50, he opened grocery
and provision store, on East Water street
and soon built up the most extensive bust
ness of it's kind in the city,. his trade
with the German immigrants being very
large. He frequently agreed to furnish
more goods during days business than
were in the store in the morning

Waukesha. Teams then forded the rlv-
er and people crossed on large stones ar
ranged for the purpose.
In 1850 Mr.. Newhall retired from the
provision business, bought the. Phillips
The rapid growth of his business necessi-
tated the building of the Badger ware
house in 1854, which at that time was
the largest in the Northwest. During

the Lawrence, Speed and Robert Burns,
gave him what was known as the Badger
line of vessels, the largest on the lakes.
His ambition at that time was to start

ing by him of the Newhall house, costing
with it's site $252,OOO. At that time it
was the largest hotel between Albany
and the Pacific coast. For years it was
the architectural pride of the city.
Up to 1867 Mr.. Newhall was the lead
ing grain shipper of the Northwest, his
operations in wheat in Milwaukee and
Chicago and in gold and stocks in New
York, involved the use of millions. Sub
sequent business reverses, however, de-
prived him of q large fortune.
In 1843 he married Melissa NJ. Tenny

During the summer season at Waukesha
he was in the habit of disposing of
