MICHIGAN FOREST FIRE.
Millions Of Dollars Worth Of Property
Destroyed.

Milwaukee.-A dispatch to the SEN
tinel from Escanaba. Michigan, by a
stan correspondent. says:
-Four known dead. a score or more
persons missing, hundreds OF families
homeless, several millions OF dollars
OF property burned, four towns wiped
out entirely and dozen more parti-
ally destroyed; five counties devas-
tated and 100 square miles OF territory
fire swept. This is the dreadful pic
ture that the northern Michigan PENN
sula presents today after the worst
forest fire since the Peshtigo disaster
in 1871 has spent itself.
General Superintendent Wells OF the
Escanaba e. Lake Superior railroad
along whose right of way the greatest
loss occurred. returned tonight from
a trip of inspection over the fire
stricken area, and says the names
have gone down and for the time be-
ing the danger is over, unless a new
gale arises TO again fan the embers
into flames.
The following summary briefly tells
the story:
Peter LaFond a cook, was smoth-
cred in lumber camp and his body
found tonight.
lHTtt uuhIlOWH II tHlIOfbIl, All utdh
Quinnesec, Michigan. They were sep
arated from their parents while the vii
lage was burning and perished-
Scores of homesteaders and woods
men are missing and many have prob
ably perished in the flames.
Territory devastated, five counties.
Marquette, Menominee, Delta, Alser
and Dickinson.
The territory fire swept ic 100 miles
square.
Towns totally burned, Talbot, Mich
gan, 100 population. only a few houses
left standing.
Quinnesec, Michigan, 400 population,
only one house remains.
Saunders, $50 population. all wiped
out.
Niagara, Wisconsin, 800 population.
all wiped out.
Towns partially destroyed: North
land. Cornell. Antoine. Spring VALLEY,
Kingsley, Woodland, Fostel City, Sala,
Metropolitan.
The fire ragged for distance OF sixty
four miles along the line OF the Escan-
aba & Lake Superior railroads and for
thirty miles beyond Claiming, the
terminus of the road. 1t seems certain
now that 1000 persons are homeless in
that district and that 1000 are left
desolate at Quinnesec.

Paris-The early departure OF Wal
ter Wellman, the American explorer,
and his party for Spitzbergen, in ac-
cordance with his plan to endeavor 70
reach the North pole by means OF a
dirigible balloon, is attracting wide

and men of science. This attention
has been increased by Mr.. Wellman's s
announcement that he intends to es-
tablish a base at Danes island and be-
gin his ascent on the very spot where
Andre inflated his balloon.
The first section of his party, under
Major Herzy, will leave Paris in few
days, rendezvousing at Tromseoe until

Arctic steamer Frithjof to Spitzbergen,
where Major Herzy will direct the con-
struction of a headquarters, machine
shops, gas plant and balloon shed. The
balloon will be the largest ever con-
structed owing to the enormous di-
mensions OF Mr.. Wellman's dirgible
machine. Major Merzy's advance
party will consist Of Alexander Lew
anthan, chemist and gas engineer; DR..
w. N. Fowler OF Indiana, surgeon;
Felix Rosenberg. assistant navigator,
and Francis H. Buzzacott. commissary.

naut, and John Colard and two assist
ant aeronauts.

attested by crowded houses which APP
prove with heartiest laughter the many

lovers of light comedy, and the graph
ic and clever portrayal of characters
which Mr. AIDE has transferred from
nature, furnish fund of merriment to
the playgoers who appreciate clean cut
and truthfully painted humanity. One
writer said of it: 1.-The production is
radically different from any of the 9TH

day story of an election for prosecut-
ing attorney in a rural county in the

rived late yesterday afternoon to take
the place of the benches which have
been in use since the house opened.
Fifty men were kept hustling from the

seats in place. Those who witnessed
last nights performance to see the
house today would scarcely believe
that such a change could be accom-
plished in so short space of time.
The chairs which are fine opera, of
beautiful mahogany finish, only serve
in making this one of the finest, as
well as comfortable and safest little
