The Milwaukee Sentinel is of the
opinion that the state has enough
normal school schools and is not in
favor of rebuilding the Normal at
River Falls, recently destroyed by fire.
Would the Sentinel have advanced the
same opinion if Milwaukee, instead Of
River Falls, had suffered similar
disaster to its Normal school? We
guess not. 1t makes IA good deal Of
difference whose OK is gored, even with
the big metropolitan dailies.-Dunn

COLLISION AT SEA.
FogGy Weather Causes n Catastrophe

New York, Aug. 26.-The Thingvalla
line steamer Norge, which arrived
here, reports that she sunk the French
fishing schooner Locoquette, of Bay
onne, France, on the Grand banks.
The captain and eight seamen were
saved. Sixteen went down with the
unfortunate vessel.
On the day of the accident, between
three and four o'clock in the after
noon, the weather was foggy. but not
so thick that the vessels speed was re-
duced. Capt. Knudsen said he could
see about three cables lengths ahead.
The wind was fairly brisk from the
west-southwest, when a vessel sud-
denly doomed up from the north with
sails full and stood directly across the
bow of the steamer. The bells were
rung TO stop and back at full speed,
but it was too late 10 check the steam
er's Roadway. The stranger, fishing
schooner, fell across the bow, and with
a crash was forced over and sunk.
Three men sprang aboard the Norge,
The passengers of the Norge most Of
whom were about the decks, rushed
about in alarm at the shock, but were
soon quoted when they learned that
the steamer was uninjured. A boat
was lowered and six men and a dog

Knudsen, of the Norge, said that as a

out of the way of all sailing craft, but
that this was time when the sailing
vessel could do more to help herself
than the steamer. The latter was GO
ing ahead at full speed, for the fog was
not. in the judgment of the captain,

OF Industrial prosperity, which is mani
Tested on every side, and the restoration
of peace after short and decisive war, all
tend to promote good feeling and to cement
more firmly the bonds of friendship and
equality among us.
In order that the true purpose of the day
may be carried out and that II may be
made an especial occasion for rejoicing,
recommend that all manufacturing insu-
tutions and the industries suspend opera
tions. and that all mercantile establish
Iishments where men are employed he

Camp to BE Kept Up.

Washington. Aug 3o.--It is said at
the war department that there is no
truth in the report that Camp Wikotf,
Montauk Point, is to be abandoned
either as a result of Secretary Ayers
inspection or any other account. Adjt.
Gen. Corbin saws the camp was estab-
lished only as place of temporary de-
tention for the troops returning from
the feyerinfected districts Of Cuba in
order to avoid The possibility of the in
PRODUCTION of yellow fever. 1t was not
intended as permanent camp and
will be abandoned when it has served
the special purpose for which it was
established. From present indications
the camp will be maintained there sew
eral weeks yet. The troops will be or
dered to their home camps as soon as
they are ready to move or discharged
from the service after two months
furlough. 1t is estimated that there
are about $4,000 troops at the camp,
including the regulars.
