A GRAPHIC PEN PICTVKE.
The Terrible Htorj of lbe Lmi Wisconsin
Hamlet that Ibught the Ilnrrlcanc of
lire.
A letter from Abnapee, Wisconsin, contains
the following graphio piotnre of the deeolation
nought by the hurricane of lire that visited
that plsee:
Hnmsn annals do not surpass, in eqnal time
acd .pace, the immensity and intensity of suf
fering and death orowded into tbo meager ept-
touo of one single honr. The eeene of a
Ibrivmg indnstry, and the home of nearly a
hnndred people, the place, though isolated from
any toman vicinity, had maintained a flooriah-
ir.g nnd tranquil vitality. The shingle mill,
nib its coadjotant industries, gave employment
to tbo entire people, women and children divid
mg the easy labor of shingling arid binding.
There wero bat four buildings on the clearing
—ihe mill, the general boarding house, a store
am l the bam. Economy and convenience,
enriona to say. had dietated the (election of this
remote spot The timber inexhaustibly covered
the place, and it vi) of nneqnalled quality; a
Uiy little stream, meandering through the
gnarled roots and ipfl soil offered a supply of
nter, enough wllh artesian wells to drive Ihe
n iU machinery. M was cheaper to work the
great logs into marketable shape here, where
Ib'iv were right at hand, than establish the
nulls on the Iske or bey and drag the Immense
timber over miles of wretched roads.
The fierv experience of tho west shore—of
the whole Northern Wisconsin—had been the
ripericnce of this wood immersed hamlet. Fur
wicks, inerssiUt, laborious battle bad been
waged night and day, reliefs of men, and even
women, taking turns in the i-xhansling contest
It was bopedthat all danger had been warded
off, when a wide belt, folly a mils deep, had
h,en homed outward from tho clearing. The
mmnily of assured safely bad come npoa the
nniple when this bisok eircumvallation was com-
plan—lbe very night before the calamity. On
that fatal Sunday morning the mill operations
Mi«prnd<d, and the men who had homes in the
n.igblstrlsg towns of Big and Lillie Sturgeon
ma da as early start through tho woods. When
night oipie some kindly providence detained
them, and the muaaere was so moch less. The
ntgbt lame on tranquilly, the humid air gave
grairfal promise of oonttng rain, and tbe Iasi
lingering distrust waa banished from the timid-
rst lihabitant. Early.in tbe night moat of the
liltlc population in tho hamlet ware in doors or
in bat. It was still early when those casual!:
aslir outside aaw a great glowing light shoot
it cart tho southern sky, and spreading rapidly
wf*t and northward, continue with dazzling
brilliancy. Presently a slender column of fire
ikol forward, and, eangbt by a whirlwind, came
(Jiving through the solid limber toward the
mill. By this time the solid sleepers and all
bad rnsbed from Ihe barrack in n wild, clamor
ita consternation.
Three brothers, Williamson, owned tbe mill,
and had in the colony mother, father, sisters,
wives end children. Hastily charging the wo-
men to oare for themselves, the brothers set
about saving the property, if possible. But be
fore tbo hose could bo brought to bear, the sav
ing of life alone became the stako in the dread-
fat encounter. The proprietors, seem for a
ume to have been fall of calm, brave discretion,
and, with the foil realization of tbeauddendan
ger in tbe first rnah of tbe tornado, attempted
ijatematio plans of preservation. The women
were directed, as far as possible, to pnt on men's
clothes throughout, as offering leas chance for
the fire to catch. So far as known, not a wo
man heeded the advice. Had they done so,
their lives might not have been sacrificed on
Ihat ignoble pyre. Even if life had not been
spared, the most revolting sights of tbe maess-
ere would have been spared for heart-broken
snrvivors. This waa the last shred of coherent
conduct among the frightened people. Swift
whirling oolnmna of flame bad ont through the
intervening timber, and fell voraciously on the
light frame buildings. Tbe whirlwind lashing
the trees into fragments caught the fire in roar
ing surges, and flung it abont in billowy waves
among the tree-tops. Blender tongues of fire
falling from above played in malevolent cur
rents across the clearing.
A desperation of terror filled men, women
and children—a terror as natural as fatal, for,
had common fortitude led the group, not a sonl
need have perished. With one impulse tbe
(rantio mass, battling and crowding, rushed to
the potato patch. Hera a rising ground was
crowned by a shallow pit, not six feet around,
and hardly, at the deepest part, two feet below
the surface of the ground. Men now living,
who came along nnaoathed through that night
of doom, tell how, before the evil time, when
the fires were raging, this spot had been fixed
on as a place of safety, because almost in the
centre of the clearing, with no inflammatory
matter near, it seemed to promise a breathing
in case of a general conflagration. There bad
bean constant jooosities and banter abont this
“center of salvation," and some one actnally
attempting to enlarge the cavity, bad been
driven off by good-natured ridicule, - Even as
lale as Batnrdsy it hid been used as a place of
refnge, notwithstanding, and, when the aetual
danger came, the credulous mass remembered
the delnaive pit. If that fatal spot had not
been, if the whimsical belief had not obtained
a firm hold, there is not the slightest doubt
but the forty-seven that perished wonld have
escaped in the neighboring woods. Into that
cramped place, crowding, buffeting, begging,
cur.mg, imploring, praying, shrieking, men,
children and women elbowed and fought in the
frenzy of a hideous desperation and terror. Not
large enough to admit a dozen by the oloaest
packing, nearly fifty wrestled and crowded in
and about tbe fatal spot. With ostrich instinct,
in the abj corneas of their unreasoning fear, men
plowed their burning heads nnder the living
pyre. An inextricable pyramid of bodies, in
all sorts of oonoeivablo postures, stood in the
flame-swept place.
Thera were a few in this awful time that pre
served an amazing equanimity. The engineer
of the mill, Byron Merrill, a young fellow of
marked intelligence, battled resolutely till the
last chance to save his employers' property, and
only when the futility of the effort and the dan
ger to life became obvions waa his self imposed
daty resigned. A bit of romance tinges tbe
glaring pictnra. His awee! heart was the relative
of the mill owners, Mias Maggie William*on, a
girl, it is said, of rare beauty and attraction.
The young fellow, bright and cultured beyond
hie kind, regarded with favor and affection for
many a mile around, had won her heart and the
two were to have been married. The girl, with
her kindred, had fled to tbs potato patch, and
hen, suffocating with a moke, their garments in
flames, and writhing in awful agony, the young
fellow found the chief part of the people. He
tried to scatter the infatuated group: with his
hat pressed closely over his month and nostrils,
he directed the group to break and take shelter
In the edge of the Umber. Hopeless.'
The roar of tho hurricane, oven the blood
curdling shrieks of the sufferers drowned his
voioe. He tried by main tone to tear the hid-
eons mass asunder, bat the strength of the giant
00old not have broken the maddened clutch of
the wretched sufferers. The grasp enu immov
ably fixed to the fatal spot, and rose from bunt
ing sand, a fiery Laocoon straggling with the
ooiling flames. Merrill, hastily fetahing wetted
blankets, threw them over the nearest sufferers,
meantime shooting to them to break for the
timber, not twenty steps away. Useless. With
the skin hanging in shreds upon his hands and
forehead, he carried water and pound it on the
infatuated group, while the ignoble crowding
went on madlv among the swiftly roasting crowd.
The tumultuous struggle had been from the first
* loathsome, unreasoning fear; a moment’s
coolness, a moment’s cessation of the frightful
effort to wedge downward wonld have given life
to all. The time came, however, when the faith
ful Merrill, stripped almost of clothing, and
horned beyond recognition, had to give op the
heroic effort, and, plunging through the darting
flame, dashed his burning body in the well
Early in the catastrophe a half dozen heavy
alee peri had found tardiness their solvation
from the potatoe-pstob, and they darted into
the timber belt, which had been burned ont
*®og before to keep the fire from the houses.
Here, prone to the ground, they protected
themselves, while the mad crowd, not ten yards
away, roasted in their blindness. The foiling
trees could be guarded against, but nothing
could save from the encompassing fire in the
clearings. One came, too, whose frail chance
of life the meanest creature struggling in that
hot pit would not havorefnsed, an old tottering,
h*H blind, trembling woman, mother to the
owners of the mill. She must have been for
gotten in the first rash, for when she came to
the pots to-patch it was filled with a crowd
thrown prone upon their faoes in the shallow
depths of the potato pit. Seven of her kindred
writhed in that hideous knot. Passing on with
decrepit steps, the venerable mother, whose
eighty-four yean had not worn ont coolness and
discretion, came upon a great boulder near the
edge of the timber. Climbing on this, sltbough
half suffocated, she covered her heal with tier
skirts, and, with clothes carefully tacked up
from the running flames, kept for hours on the
book of tins unique salamander. Tbe only son
that came ont of the fire with bis life, it ia said,
did not forget his doty, and aided his mother to
this forlorn refuge. Be that aa it may, a thick
blanket well wetted over her body and ber
skirts out of reach of the hot inoendtary sand,
the old lady perched on that rock through the
long night of agony, every shriek of the roasted
kindred splitting ber ears, and their banting
bodies almost in reach of her helping arms.
Twioe through tbs night she received sncoor,
onoe from ber eon, whs came up and wetted
her covering, and onee from the barnmsster,
Bnsh, who also bathed her head and gave her
cool water to drink. Through the whole un
speakable tragedy of piteous cowardice ran this
vein of simple fortitude and heroic endaranoe.
Tbe mill blacksmith, Michael Adams, stands
ont as though of almost antique mold. He was
a man of gigantic fignra and grave, rough re-
serve. When the danger came, he gathered bis
three children and baby in his great strong
arms, and with his wife strode to the oentra of
the clearing, where he calmly pltoed them on
wetted blankets, and, covering them with his
coat, qoielly brought water in bncketa and Bat-
orated tbe frail protection. The flames hissed
and roared abont him, bnt be never desisted.
Bsatstlng their hot torrents with wonderful en-
dnranoe, and even when his hair was ablaze, his
hands fleshless, and the ooals eating into his
Arab, he continued his efforts for wife and child.
Tbe yonng engineer and tbe barn master abonted
to him to fly to the woods. He seemed to hear
them, but calmly shaking his head remained st
Ijjff post.
As his strength and sight began to fail, be
looked with unutterable yearning toward the
helpless gronp at his feet, then glanced anxious
ly toward tbe wood, Whether he aaw that there
was the better chsnoe of safety can never be
known; ho reeled suddenly and dropped like
shot in his tracks. When help eame to that
gronp the next day, sn nnscarred babe lay in
the arms of its dead mother, the father's arm
abont both. They were, of oourae, all dead, bnt
the father alone, with one arm burnt off. waa
unrecognizable, save by his giant frame. Even
the dog that howled, smothering in the hot air
and kept in an ecstacy of reckless motion to
trveent being roasted on the hot sands, seemed
mpressed by his man’s do votion. Wagging de
lirious inquiry with his tail, and interjecting
sharp barks, be seemed to plead with his obdu
rate master. Hopeless of recognition, then he
wonld plaee his nose nnder the wet blankets,
sDd after a tborongh cooling, emerge dejectedly,
as thoogh depreeating tbe weakness while his
master stood exposed. Sands growing hotter
and hotter, the forbearing brate made for the
woods, but in mid-career, and almost in the
performance of a jig—his legs were kept moving
so briskly to keep his feet from banting—he
tnrned longingly, as if reminding the man that
this was the way to safety. No heed was paid
him, and with painfnl limps and plteons whines
he returned, and retting his feet on the blanket,
stared eagerly at bia master. His poor singed
body was found in that attitude of love and
daty.
At the well, which stood nearest the house, a
wretched gronp had taken refnge—not only at,-
bnt in it. Six people flung themselves into this
lost resort, oonniing confidently on it as a plaee
of security. Finally, when crippled by the
fire, and exhausted by his long efforts, tbe young
man Merrill threw himself into that crowded
pit also, the place was packed. Even here his
presence of mind was all that saved a life when
life had very little ehanoe. The frail wooden
curbing above tfle month had taken Are, and
tbe flames began to ran downward fiercely.
The paralyzed gronp dared not put ont tbeir
heads, lest the flames should smother them.
Bat Merrill, without an instant’s hesitation up
rose and Hang the dangerous thing away, and
the barn master, hovering about the edge of the
woods, presently refreshed the smothered people
by a bucket of water. The well was, notwith
standing, a place of death. The flames, sweep
ing savagely over the clearing, lurched and spit
down hatefully into the orowded pit, and soon
the steady blaze from witbin indicated the fate of
its inmates. Merrill still held bis mind, and re-
sisted the flames. In this he was aided by
Bnsh, who helped him to bia final deliverance.
He aided all who wonld listen to him, manfully,
and to him the few that were saved, iu a large
measure, owe their lives. He brought water
front the creek to aid the gronp on the potato
patch, and kept the sheltering blankets satu
rated as long as be dared venture inside the line
of fire. It must not be supposed that outside
the clearing stretched a solitude of safety. On
the contrary, the ceaseless explosions of break
ing tranks and splintered branches were so ter
rific, mingled with volnmes of flsme in the tree
tops, that the great part of the people preferred
to risk the dangers of the open ground. Bat
tbe thick wood btd its security, and with care
the people that lay down near the edge found
themselves, when the frightful morning came,
substantially uninjured.
Here tbe climax comes; the tragedy is com
plete in this one terrific picture; the light of
the new dsy revealed only the machinery of the
horrid masterpiece. The red glare of night
had changed into bleak dawn, and the dawn had
changed into high noon before a helpful band
broke into the black Golgotha. The barnmaster
Bush, when silence bed fallen upon the place
for an boar or two before dawn, took a bone
and attempted to make bia way to Little Stur
geon. As well try to ride throngb a stonewall.
Leaving hia horse behind, he straggled on by
the bright l.ght of the burning pines, and after
incalculable trouble in the way aDd ont of the
way, some time about daylight he came upon
the rains of a lumberman's ctbin, which by the
regular path was not more than two miles from
the mill. He had been boots in reaching it,
nnd, worn ont by the labors and agony of the
night, sat down to rest.
Presently tbe owner came, and together the
two men started back to the settlement. They
eame first to the well. Merrill, apparently quite
dead, was taken ont first Six more after, all
dead, save a child, crowded below its mother at
the bottom. Merrill soon gave feeble evidence
of life, and was eared for at once. Bnsh ran
to the stone to aid tne old woman; the blank-
eta were rolled oway. The stone was bare, and
no vestige of Mrs Williamson could be found.
Then they eame upon the pit An indistin
guishable heap of arms, legs and bodies, per
fectly still and wholly naked, was all that re
mained of the mass that came there in abund
ant life a few boors before. They were all
dead, and few of them reoognizable. Seven
Williamsons perished in the group; among
others tbe yonng girl whose long black hair
found clutched in masses in her nnebarred
hand.
The darkness of a new night threw a pitying
veil over the scene when the first relief from
the ontside had snsoeeded in catting a way
through. The work of bnrial began next morn
ing, and fifty-nine were acoonnted for in tbe
fatal clearing. The venerable mother was found
on the road to Big Sturgeon the day after her
terrible exposure, very feeble and worn ont. She
waa tenderly eared for, and is in a fair way tore-
gain what she ean count bnt little—her health.
One son ont of three was spared. Her husband
laid hia gray bain in the terrible holocast; her
whole kindred passed away in the ravages of
that deadly night. To this day the woods are
not dear of their dead. Bodies in every stage
of decay are constantly bronght in by the com
mittees, and until that ia ended the grand total
can only be a matter of conjecture.
Aa Oregon Romance.
Tho Oregon Bulletin tell this romantio story:
Twenty-five years ago a yonng couple redding
a the State of New Hampshire met, loved, one
determined to marry. Like other hnman be
ings, they had passions, and they parted in an
ger. The voung man moved into another part
of the country, where he met another woman,
whom be married. A few years later he moved
to the Paeifio Coast, and in time became a citi
zen of Oregon. The yonng woman fitted her
self for the occupation of a teacher and went to
Iowa, where she engaged in teaching school.
Fifteen years passed by, and then the school-
marm joined a family that was emigrating from
the vicinity of where she had been residing to
Oregon, and in due time arrived there, and en
deavored to procure employment in her profes
sion, bnt met with indifferent success, and
finally determined to accept employment as a
domestic until she could do better. Shortly
after miking this resolution she wss offered a
position in tho family of a gentleman and ac
cepted it, bnt the first time she saw the head of
the family, reoognized in him her former lover.
Tbe recognition was mutual, and of course the
lady oonld not remain. Her old lover, who had
grown rich, furnished her with funds, and she
went to San Francisco, where she obtained a
position in the School Department of that city.
About eighteen months ago the wife of the gen
tleman died, after having been in feeble health
for some years. After awhile the widower wrote
to his flame, telling her of his loss. She replied
with a letter of oonsolabon, and a correspond
ence sprang np between them, and finally the
widower mode a proposal to the lady to bury
their old differences and consummate the en
gagement of their younger doys. The woman
who had loved so steadily and so long signified
her willingness, attda oonple of months ago our
friend proceeded to San Francisco and led his
first love to the alt&r. They returned to Ore
gon, and are now residing on one of the most
beautiful forms in the 'Willamette Valley.
French Immigration,
| CaxtzssvuxE, Ga., Nov. 14,187L
I To Mr. D. IF. Lewis:
I read in a paper from Savannah, that you
hod received a letter from H. Tucker, actually in
Faria (France), in which he said, that a good
thing to do wonld be to make or establish an
immigration society, to procure some French
immigrants to this State. I am confident that
such undertaking would be successful, and
wonld benefit this State. I am a Frenchman,
and know what the formers are, at home. They
wonld work better and be more careful about
everything generally, than the hands of this
country. If I had the means, I would advance
money, and show to the people of this State
what ean be made in a farm, only by savings
[and cares.
■ The French farmers knew how to raise or cul
tivate wheat, rye, oats, barley, Irish potatoes,
turnips in general, (beets, to make sugar of it),
tobacco, lucerne, clover and prairie grass, and
grapes of different kinds. They know how to
make and save manure. I showed (last year)
bow to make manure to Mr. Trimble, from
[AdaitsvtUe.
A farmer who has 25 head of cattle can make
[$800 worth, or more, by working an hour or an
honr and a half every day, and better fertilizer,
Ifor it will last four or five years, whilst guano
[lasts only one year. In Franoe we raise fifty
and sixty bnsheis of wheat, and over, to the acre,
mutt quantity oonld be raised here as well.
The Frenchmen that come to this country ar
rive generally at New Tork. They do not speak
English, and there some New Torker or Dutch-
man goes to meet tbe boats or steamers, and go
to tbe poor foreigners and speak to them a few
I words of bad French and engage them—for
what ? for how mneb, and for what business ?
They do not know; and a great many help them
| to spend the little they may have bronght with
Threomonths ago I wrote home, telling
|what I knew abont this country. And since, 1
have sent letters to the Mayor, or Maire, of five
| cities, asking them to advise those wishing to
to Amerioa to come directly to Georgia,
Ithe climate being good, tbe soil abont the same
as in Franoe, and looking more like France thin
any of the States in which I have traveled, viz:
| Booth Carolina and Florida.
I believe that if an agent was at New Fork he
[could send many immigrants to Savannah; for
he wonld just take them from European steam
ers to Savannah steamers, saving the expense of
staying in the city one or two weeks.
When a Frenchman is in this country, if he
hears French spoken he thinks he is saved. I
have been living in Cartersville one year.
Respectfully yours, 3. 3. Hr.r.AED.
Jawbone or a GJnnf.
| From the Helena (Montana) Gazette. November 1. j
Yesterday, in company with Geo. W. Foote,
w« took a ride into the foot hills among the
miners, and being invited to dine with Richard
and Kill Kennedy, two miners and prospectors
who reside near tbe head of the Dry Gulch, we
tarried for a while, and partook of their hospi
talities. Among many cariosities exhibited to
ns by these brothers was an enormous jawbone
containing five glistening teeth, and all in a
perfect state of preservation. The jawbone
* twelve inches in circumference. Mr.
I Dick Kennedy informed ns that in coming up
the Missouri river five years ago, the boat land
ed at a post and a party of whites came in from
the pursuit of a thieving band of Sionx; one of
the party had a jawbone in his possession, and
stated that an Indian scout, who accompanied
the whites, led them into a grove of very tall
trees, and pointing np to where a stretcher was
laid across from one tree to another, nearly one
hundred feet high, informed them that on the
stretcher was laid the body of the great Indian
[giant, tbe grandfather of tbe celebrated Sioux
warrior, Red Cloud. Some of tbe party climbed
[to the stretcher and cut away the fastenings,
and tbe skeleton fell to the ground and of oonrse
was broken. The party placed the limbs and
body together, and it measured “nine feet and
two inches.” The under jaw, which is now in
the possesssion of Mr. Kennedy, was carried off
by one of the party, and Mr. Kennedy bought
it for twenty dollara. It is indeed a relio of an
enormous human being, and can be seen at Mr.
[Kennedy’s cabin at any time by the curious. '
Advice to Little Girls.
ET MAUI TWAIN.
Good little girls ought not to make mouths
[at their teachers for every trifling offenoe. This
retaliation should only be resorted to under pe
culiar aggravating circumstances.
If you have nothing but a rag doll stuffed
with saw dust, while one of your moro fortunate
little playmates has a costly little china one,
you should treat her with a show of kindness,
nevertheless. And you ought not to attempt to
make a forcible swap unless confidence wonld
justify you in it, and you know yon are able to
do it.
Yon ought never to take yonr little brother’s
“chewing gam” away from him by main force;
it ie better to rope him in with the promise of
the first two dollars and a half floating down tho
river on a grindstone. In the artless simplicity
natural to his time of life he will regard it as a
perfectly fair transaction. In all ages of the
world this eminently plausible fiction has lured
the obtuse victim to financial ruin and disaster.
If at any time you find it necessary to correct
your brother, do not correct him with mnd—
never, on any acoonnt, throw mnd at him, be
cause it will spoil his clothes. It is better to
scald him a little, for then you obtain desirable
results. You secure his immediate attention to
thejleason yon are inoulcating, and at same time
yonr hot water will have a tendency to remove
impurities from his person, and possibly the
skin in spots.
If your mother tells yea to do a thing, it is
wrong to reply that you won’t It is better and
more becoming to reply that yon will do as she
bids yon, and then afterwards act quietly in tho
matter according to the dictates of yonr best
judgment. 1
■Yon should ever bear in mind that it is to
your kind parents that you are indebted for
yonr food, and yonr nice bed, and for yonr beau
tiful clothes, and for the privilege of staying at
homo from school when yon let on that yon are
sick. Therefore you ought to respect their lit
tle prejudices, and humor their little whims,
and pnt.np with their foibles until they get to
crowding yon too much.
Good little girls always show marked defer
ence for the aged. You ought never to “sass’
old people unless they “boss” you first.
Axoxa the most interesting sights to 're seen
at the theatre in Salt Lake Uity is the young
army of Youngs, the Prophet’s progeny, who
generally occupy the benches along one side of
the parquet. Boys and girls, young men and
young women, apparently without number,
ranging in years from seven to twenty, play and
sport with each other like so many kittens.
Finer or healthier specimens of humanity yon
cannot find anywhere. The male portion are
strong, healthy and robnst; tbe females very
womanly looking, with dear oomplexions and
bright eyes, They have ail splendid teeth and
beautiful heads of hair. The girls are very
roguish, and are not at all averse to leveling
their opera-glasses upon any handsome and no-
ted Gentile who may be present. They seem
to appreciate retnm glances, and thenlangh
and giggle over the fun like a lot of school
girls. Getting a full view of the family of the
Prophet, and dissecting them mentally, morally
and physically, tbe unprejudiced thinker can
not agree with those philosophers who assert
that the offspring of polygamic marriages are
weak and puny creatures. That such may be
the ease in some instances may be true ; bnt in
no sense can it apply to this Young family.
Sore of the 'Western journals are advising the
farmers to burn their corn, as a matter of econ.
omy, in preference to selling at low prices to
buy coal.
