DRAKE AND HIS YEoMEN." by
James Barnes, is another boys book

The book processes 10 no "a true ac-
counting Of the character and adventure
Of Sir Francis Drake as told by Sir Nat
thew Maunsen. his friend and follower,
wherein Is also set forth much Of the
narrators private history" The aivcn-
lures OF Drake here recorded are chiefly
mis- feats Of plumber on the Spanish Main.
and they furnish abundant reasons sor hts
aauntlessness In the face Of tho Armada.

Of a heroine, bat in the main the tale IS

GLEANINGS OF STATE.

Wisconsin.
Te1egraphic News of Happenings of the
Past Few Days in the Great State
of Wisconsin.

Ashland, Wis.,, Aug. 6.-Nearly
million dollars worth of lumber was
burned in the Barker & Stewart and
keystone Lumber companies yards at
Ashland Saturday afternoon. Almost
100000 feet of lumber was burned,
and two Of the Keystone'S tramways
and four out of five of the Barker &
Stewart tramways were burned to the
waters edge with all their lumber.
The fire started in the Barker & Stewart
yards at ! p. M, jumped quarter of
mile to the keystone yards, setting
fire to the west tramway, leaped over
the middle tramway, which did not
burn, and caught on the east tramway.
The fire next leaped across the lime,
salt and cement dock, destroying the
warehouse containing several thou
sands dollars worth of merchandise,
and destroying quarter of mile OF
dock and railroad track. Over 1000
pounds of dynamite was used in blow
ing up the lumber piles, and after a
three hours desperate fight both mills
were saved. Of the lumber destroyed
100000 feet belonged to Gilbert and
nearly all Of the rest on both docks
belonged to the Edwards Hines Lum-
Der company, of Chicago.
At 6 p. m. gale of wind began to
blow from the lake and for awhile it
looked as though AShland'S fire trOu-
bles were only just beginning, but
just as hope was about abandoned a
drenching rain fell and saved the city
There was a report that four men lost
their lives, but it is not confirmed.

rs A SMOOTH CRATER.
Man Who Has Been Taking In and Doing
for" Some Farmers.

Lacrosse, Wis.,, Aug. 7.-Farmers in
the vicinity of Hokah, La Crescent and
other neighboring towns have been
worked real hard during the past few
days by an exceedingly smooth CRATER,
and as result number are short a
little spending money. The greasy in
dividual represented himself to be in
the employ Of the government. His ia
vorite pose was as a horse buyer for
Uncle Sam.
The swindler would point out a horse
md ask what he could be bought for.
al one case the farmer said he wanted
5000 for the animal, but finally offered
to part with him for $50. Thereupon
the visitor pulled out draft for 5000,
saying he had no smaller, and the
farmer gave him the difference, $50 in
cash, and arranged to deliver the horse
at Caledonia a day later. The draft
was forged and so worthless, and the
farmer is out his $40 and of course did
not dispose of the horse.
