TOWN BURNED UP.
Eighteen Hundred People Rendered
 Homeless.

MILWAUKEE, Aug. 26.-A special to The Wisconsin from Houghton, Michigan. gives the particulars of fire which destroyed the town of Ontono- gan. Int fire originated in a swamp just south of the Diamond Match con- pany's mills. A forty mile gale swept the flames before it, and the blaming mills, the factory and the immense dry kilns were soon in ashes. The flames then descended on to the business and residence quarter of the city and finally lodged in 65,O00,000 feet of sawed lum- Der on tined ocks. The destruction of the village was complete, barely a dozen houses in the suburbs remain ing standing. The onslaught of the flames was SO sudden that barely one in twenty succeeded in saving any of their effects. The heat was so intense that the people were compelled to seek shelter under trees and the driftwood along the lake shore. Many walked to Rockland, fifteen miles away. There are about 1,800 men, women and chill dren without food or shelter. Many insuficiently clothed, suffered severely last night. The Diamond Match com pany lost its mills and buildings worth nearly s2,OOO.OOO, and lumber worth $1, ,000, 900.
