There was a fire at Camp Logan
Monday night at 1870, which burned
up tie mess hall and provision house.
There were about eighty men on the
grounds at the time. The cause Of
the fire was defective tue. The
loss is estimated at $4,000. Some
of the soldier boys reached here
Tuesday afternoon and complained that
the natives Whereabouts refused to
either feed them or sell them anything,
Peter Beffel, of Racine, who has the
contract for putting in the dock at the
foot of Washington street has found
the hammer of his pile driver which
fell and buried itself in the mud re-
Gently. At the point where it fell there
was water to the depth Of five feet and
the hammer had buried itself some
twenty-one feet further down. Mr..
Befel says he will get the hammer out.
The loss of the hammer will probably
delay the dock work about week.
And yet some pers 1ns express doubts
respecting the doctrine of total de-
pravity! Wheelmen of Racine and
Kenosha Clipped in and constructed
cinder path for bicycles between the
two cities. No sooner had it been
completed than thing-it could not
have been person-procured the
blade of scythe, placed it in a groove
of a two-by-four and buried the whole
thing just below the surface of the
ground across the narrow path with
the keen edge of the knife up. Several
tires we're cut entirely in two before the
fiendish device was discovered and re-
moved. Index.
