Frederick Treves, the famous sur

Sir William MacCormnck. at IL ball ut

He said:

there are only two pagues in South

plague OF women. The flies we get rid
of by horsehnir wisps, and other ap-
pliances. and the flies ut least depart
ut night. But the women are abso-
lutely and really a terror. They came
out in the guise of amateur nurses aft

Chicago, April 30.-Amid the boom
ing Of cannon and the cheers Of hun
dreds Of people, Admiral George Dew
ey arrived to-day. For the next three
days he will be the guest of the city,
and the programme for his entertain
ment will take up nearly every mo-
ment of his time until his departure
Thursday from Jacksonville, Illinois.
The special train bearing the admiral
and Mrs. Dewey, Lieutenant Cald-
well, his secretary, and Lieutenant
Crawford, was met near South Chlca-
go by special train carrying the gen
eral executive committee of the Dew
ey celebration, and including Mayor
Harrison, President Charles A. PAM
nndon, and the admiral's son, George
Goodwin Dewey.
An immense crowd had congregated
In the streets surrounding the station,
and had packed to suffOcation the
big depot building itself. When the
white-moustached naval hero was seen
roar of cheers went up.
The route Of the parade to the hotel
was along Fifth avenue to Jackson
boulevard, thence down Michigan ave-
nue. to the hotel. Along those streets
for hours before the arrival Of Admir-
al Dewey were gathered crowds that
literally packed the sidewalks and that
kept the police busy from filling the
streets also, and the cheering started
at the depot swept along the streets as
the admiral and his party were slowly
driven to their apartments, the ap-
plause being almost without cessation
until the admiral entered the hotel.
At 2:30 p. m. the admiral was given
n reception by the anadian.American
Association, which presented an 1nvi-
tation to him to visit Canada ut his
pleasure.

Mnrinette, Wis, April 3O.-Forest
fires ragged furiously north OF Fisher,
Michigan, along the right of way Of
the Wisconsin and Michigan railway,
Saturday and Sunday. The property
damage will be large. The town Of
Ames. Michigan, was practically wiped
out, entailing n loss of $4,000 or more.
Considerable cedar stock at Nathan,
Michigan, was also destroyed. The
Wisconsin & Michigan ran n special
train up the line Sunday to rescue the
fire-stricken people In the small VII
lages nlong the road. All the inhnbit-
ants of the towns of Ames and Nathan
We're taken to Pembine for safety.
1t is feared that the Wisconsin &
Michigan passenger which left here
last night was unable to get further
north than Fisher. AT the latter place
only heroic resistance stved the town.
Forest fires are burning everywhere
north of here, and further damage will
result unless there Is rain. The cOun-
try Is very dry and the fires spread rap
idly.
Fires are said to be burning along the
right OF way of the Milwaukee road
north of Ellis Junction.
Further reports are to the effect that
the forest fires are spreading and great
