~ A MS1ST80HS FIRE
Eighty Houses in Lacrosse, Wis., j
Succumb to the Flames.
One Thousand Men out of Work and
400 People Rendered Homeless.
One of the most disastrous conflagrations
that ever visited Wisconsin broke out the
other morning in John Paul's mill at Lacrosse
and swept southward, destroying the
mill and several million feet of lumber belonging
to Mr. Paul. Thence it swept to the
yards and mill of C. L. Col man, destroying
everything to the river and for
two blocks to the southward. The
flames leaped rapidly from one pile to
another despite the exertions of the entire
fire department. All the steamers were
Drougnt into service ana an me power tnac
could be obtained from the mill pumps, the
city water works and the local hydrants.
The scene about the conflagration became
thrilling. Thousands of people thronged
the streets, the sidewalks and ths
housetops to witness the conflagration.
The fire originated from
a spark from the mill stacks or from
the furnaces. In fifteen minutes the mill was
doomed, and in thirty minutes it fell in ruins
with all its splendid machinery. There was
no staying the progress of the flames, which
Jumped to the great pile of lumber and
in an hour made a seething sea of
flames against the heat of which no
fireman could stand. Th^ wind was blowing
fresh from the north and the flames moved
steadily southwest. All efforts to stop them at
dolman's mill proved futile. The immense
structure was soon a mass of fire. The planing
mill adjoining was also caujrht. The
workmen and the fire department then turned
their attention toward Ca^s street, where a
force of men were set to work to tear down
the lumber piles, that the flames might be
stopped there. All hope of saving the immediate
property was abandoned. A train
of eight cars belonging to the Milwaukee and
St. Paul road was consumed.
At 2 o'clock it wa* evident that the larcre
factory of Sejrelke, Kohlurs & Co. was
doomed. The blaze broke out in the storehouse
of the sash factory in Second street,
causing a flame of fire one block in length.
The four-story house and sheds burned with
lightning rapidity, au 1 people cast of Second
street be fan moving out.
The fire was completely under control before
3 o'clock. The departments from Winnno

aid. A careful estimate of the loss piar*es it
at $1,000,000. of which, as individual heavylosers,
C. L. Colman is greatest, his loss
beine: $400,000. with no insurance. John
Paul's loss, mill and 5,000,000 feet of lumber,
is estimated at $150,000, insured for $00,000.
The fire la;d waste ten blocks, which included
two of the largest lumber-yards in Wisconsin
and some eighty small house?. Fully i
1,000 men are thrown out of employment and
400 persons rendered homeless.
THE GREAT STRIKE,
Statements of t.lie Knights of Labor
and Jay Gould.
There was a resumption of the railroad
strike in the Southwest on the 5th, the following
being the text of a statement issued
hv tViA ?rpnf?r?1 Axeriifcivfi board of the
Knights of Labor.
"At the conference held in New York between
Gould and associates and the general
executive board the following was mutually
agreed upon:
"That the officials were willing to meet a
committee of employes without discrimination,
who are actually in the employ of the
road at the time such committee is appointed,
to adjust with them any grievance they may
have.
"The executive board, upon arriving in
St. Louis, having been informed that Mr.
Hoxie had refused to comply with the agreement
as all parties to the conference understood
it, waited upon him to ascertain his intentions
of carrying out the same, and
received the following reply: 'That only fifty
per cent of the former force wou!*l be employed;
that he would consider persona) applications
only and use his own pleasure m
acting on them, without the dictation of any
society.'
"This being in direct violation of the agreement
the general board believes that the refusal
was for the purpose of stock jobbing,
using the organization as a veil to further
their ends. We, therefore, recall the order
given to the men to return to work, the road
having made it impossible to fulfil the same.
The matter now stands as it did before the
order to resume work wa> issued?in the
hands of those interested, and the general
board will render all a&sistanc1 to cairy out
the demand of the men lor justice.'"
Mr. Jay Gould was interviewed in New
York regarding the charge made by Secretary
Turner, of the Knights of Labor, that
Mr. Hoxie was not acting in conformity with
the terms of the agreement entered into at
the New York conference. Mr. Gould said:
c+nnArrronliar'e nnt'/ic nf flio Vow

York conference show that there was no
agreement, direct or implie 1, that the company
'would take all men back, with some
comparatively few exceptions.' On the contrary,
they show that not one of the committee
expected the compauy to take back
any men not needed or any who had
had anything to do with damage
to the property of the company or obstruction
to the runuiug of its trains. Powderly
said if the company would supply him
with the names of the law breakers they
would be expelled from the order. The whole
oommittee was very positive that its orders
to return to work would be generally obeyed,
and asserted most positively that those
who refused to obey its orders would
be put cut of the order and, to use the
exact words of one of the committee,
'kept out of it it forever.' A message from
Mr. Hoxie was read to the committee, in
which he said that only a portion of the men
formerly employed would le required by the
company on account of a reduction in business
caused the stri'.ve, and because a large
number of men had been employed to take
the places of the strikers, who would not be
discharged."

A Cayalry Charge. ^

and was feeling his way in the a
gloom along the Granny White pike. His f
advance encountered a breastwork of 1
rails, behind which the enemy were en- s
deavoring to rally their broken bat- J
talions. Without a moment's hesitation a
Hatch ordered a mounted charge, and r
the horses literally tore the barricade to 3
kindling wood, and soon Union and Con- I
federate troopers were mingled together e
in dire confusion. Like Donnybrook c
fair, the men struck at a head where it J
could be seen, while the officers were i
vainly trying to rally their commands? r

iDg Union troopers, when some one I
would ride close up and in laconic but t
pungent Saxon inquire, "Who are you, *
anyhow?" and then would follow a I
breast-thrust or pistol-shot and renewed .T
tumult and confusion. ? 1
In the midst of this maddening strug- c
gle a Union officer, whose name has es- f
caped the writer, who otherwise would c
gladly add a laural to his chaplet of c
nonor, encountered Confederate General 8
Rucker, and there at once ensued a duel t
on horseback, such as perhaps was never f
seen before. The two powerful men c
closed in deadly conflict, striking, thrust- ^
ing, parrying with the rapidity of light- i
nine. Urging their horses together, f
they grasped each other's sworis with i
the disengaged hand, and wresting from i
the other his weapon, they renewed the
conflict each trying to kill the other with
his own captured blade. It is difficult
to say who would have conquered in _
this peculiar combat had not a Union *
trooper shot the gallant Rucker through ^
the arm, and, disabling him, forced his ^
surrender. Rucker spent the night at T
General J. H. Wilson's quarters, where r
he received all possible attention, and
was sent nent morning to a hospital in ^
Nashville. He was a courteous gentle- j
man, and won the respect of his captors. ^

Mesouites and wild rose-bushes, with an x

Pumpkins as a Crop. ]
Pumpkins may be made a most valu- 1
able crop for feeding cows and are invaluable
for swine, a 5 they are healthful 1
and fattening and provide considerable 1
nitrogenous elements in their seed which r
offsets the want of these in the corn. The r
diuretic effect of the seed is also useful ]
as assisting to carry off impure matter t
from Ihe blood. This effect of the seed, t
popularly supposed to be injurious to 1
cows, is only so when the seed is eaten f
in excessive quantity, as when it is
thrown out from pumpkins prepared for f
irying. An acre of pumpkins planted c
without any other crop may be expected t
to yield twenty to forty tons, according a
to the fertility of the soil and the culti- t
vation given. Six and seven feet apart (
is a good distance for the hills. This t
gives 1,000 to the aore, and five sixteen- r
pound pumpkins to the hill is not an un- }
common crop under favorable circum- <
stances. The common field pumpkin is
the best kind, beinc soft and easilv t
broken, and having no hard indigestible ?
rind, as the chee.se pumpkin has.?-New t

Don't Punish the Cow. T
Does your cow cringe and curl and ap- ?
pear nervous and fidgety when you sit s
3own to milk her? Does she keep step- 1
ping, and occasionally raise her foot to
he top of the pail, much to the peril of ?
ts contents, as well as to your own peace *
)f mind? If so do not give her a "piece c
)f your mind'' in the shape of a heavy *
jlow with vour fist or milking-stool, or a ?
iick with your hard boot, but just look s
it your finger nails and see if they are <
lot getting long and sharp. If they are, ^
oare them down the first thing you do; c
;hen begin carefully and quietly to draw
;he milk. Cows seldom kick unless they *
ire hurt in some way or expect to be hurt. E
Men's fingers are not all shaped alike, ?
lome having short, stubbed ends with *
lails that wear off as fast as they grow; ^
)thers have long, slender fingers, with a
iharp nails to 'correspond. Some milkers r
ceep their nails pared close, while others c
>ay but little attention to them. Long, a
iharp nails cause a great many cows to a
ebel against being milked. If your hired *
nen do the milking, see that they are 5
lioughtful and merciful in the matter of 1
;he care of the finger ends.?New Eng- ^

A writer in the Chicago Journal alleges
hat the shoe is the direct cause of con- c

Lny man who tells you that a foot which

s not so, and he cannot prove it by show- j,
ng results. t
t
Transplanting Trees. i
Of all oractices connected with trans- S
ilanting, says Josiah Hoopes, in the New t
fork Tribune, that of allowing tree roots b
o dry when out of the ground is about
he most reprehensible. In bad eases, p
vhen the bark is shriveled, nothing will v
enew vitality but burying the entire v
ree, root and brahch, in a trench, having
horoughly soaked the soil in advance, e
f not the best rule, it is at least safe to si
ransplant deciduous trees soon after the h
;round is reasonably dry in early spring, c
nd evergreens later but before growth a
>egins. Magnolias may prove an excep- s
ion to the first, owing to their soft sue- ^
ulent roots being susceptible of decay fc
vhen not growing.
No use digging deep holes for trees; ^
he small feeding roots keep close to the a
uriace, always waiting ior iresn nutri- (.
aent and moisture. Make the hole wide f,
f you wish, and fill in with good mellow a
oil, but only sufficiently deep
o allow the tree no stand pre- j,
:isely as before removal. Deep a
ides are an injury in many cases, as the t,
resh soil will sink after heavy rains, tak- fj
ng the tree with it, and thus bury the ^
oots several inches lower than is re- ^
[uired. Rich soil at an unnecessary deptli u
nclincs the roots to run deen in search
if nourishment, and thus debars them
rom proximity to the air. ?
It is not so difficult to transplant oaks 1
;s many persons suppose, provided care ?.
>e taken not to mutilate the roots in dig- I
jing.nor to permit them ttf"dry when out
>f the ground. Exposing roots to the air \
or an unnecessary length of time is sure Sl
leath to almost any tree. Oaks are real- ~
y as easily moved as any forest tree, prodded
they have been frequently trans- ^
)lanted, beginning with the seeding, of Jr
ay two years' growth, and performing 1
he operation every two or three years,

Poultry Notes. c
The situation for the fowlhouse should Z
ihvays Ijc chosen in a dry place; betier
till if placed upon elevat d ground. Tt
hould face east and south if possible, in
>rder to catch the rays of the morning sun, ?
tnd that the flock may enjoy the sua s
varmth in the afternoon in winter. a
Stagnant or damp soil beneath the henlouse
is bad for poultry. They cannot be 6
cept heathy in such a situation. The best a
oil for the hennery to occupy is a dry,
andy or gravelly one. A wet. soggy h
oiindation to the hennery is fatal to the s
veil-being of the stock confined in it. h
Light, warmth from the suns rays, thor- d
>ugh ventilation, and an interior that can q
ilways be kept dry, are the prime needs r
or a good healthy fowlhouse. d
Variety in food is an indispensable
requisite of success. Fowls may be made
to live when fed upon any single article ol
liet, but profits under such circumstances
ire not to oe expected, vanety in aiex
promotes health, and health secures the
ictivity of the reproductive organs.
Fresh Water is indispensable. Foul water
cads to disease.
Fowls should never be allowed to enter
)arns or siables, as they will foul more
iav and feed than their eggs are worth,
fheir domains should be entirely separited
from those of horses and cattle,
^ot only are vermin from poultry some;imes
communicated to liorses stabled in
heir neighborhood, but' the specially
ilthy afld offensive excrements of the
owls defiles the hay and grains.
A young and nervous horse, unused to
owls, is often Inghtenea it, Dy accident
>r otherwise, a cackling, scratching
roop of hens finds entrance to his stable,
uid he will resign his oats to the petty
hieves and stand trembling while they
levour his well-earned dinner. Be sure
hat stable doors and windows are so aran?cd
that neither domestic fowls nor
)igeons can enter and annoy the rightful
)ccup;mts.
It is well to season lightly the food of
ill fowls both young and old. The digestive
organs of all animals abhor a
lavorless article of food. Some sort of
itimulant is necessary to gently urge the
iigestive organs while at their work. A
rery little suit, pepper, mustard or ginger,
and other things of a like nature, is
ullicient to trive a flavor to the poultry
nusli or to the cooked vegetables.
For feeding young chicks a few bread
:rumbs soaked in milk are the best things
or the first two or three days. Feed
?nly a very very small quantity. When
hey get older they may have a variety of
pains and vegetables. They cannot
wallow large kernels of corn, but they
an have cracked corn or small pop corn,
billet seed is well adapted to young
:hickens.
One of the best things for chickens
roin a week to six weeks old is bread,
tot the ordinary household bread, but an
rticle made on purpose for chickens.
>Iix corn meal and wheat bran, neither
he line nor the coarse bran entirely, but
, little of both, with some fine
yc or wheat flour to give it
onsistency. Put in water enough to make
dough, add a little salt and bake it in
n oven as if for the family. This cheap
>read can be used to great advantage for
oung chickcns by breaking or rubbing
t into crumbs or by soaking it in milk
intil it becomes soft and can be eaten
eadily. Never give too much food.
Ulow your chickens to leave off hungry.
Fhousands of young chickens are killed
very year by gorging with rich food.
For well-grown fowls a feed of whole
orn at the evening meal is excellent, beause
it digests so slowly that the fowls
rill have something in their crops all
light. The digestive organs do not
lumber, but keep at their work the
i-liole night long. In cold weather,
(specially, the food in the crop gives
trength and support and power to reist
the cold of the small hours, when, if
he crop was empty, the birds would not
ie so well nourished.
It is a good plan to boil fish before
eeding to poultry, although raw fish,
hopped fine, is not to be despised. Meat
,nd fish, when boiled, form a diet more
early resembling the soft insects which
re procured in a state of nature by the
owls. If you boil the fish no other
(reparation is needed if they are placed
a a clean spot. The fowls will pick off
very morsel of flesh from the bones.
If a flooring of boards is used when the
ioultry house is built, it will be advisble
to cover the house with dry earth,
f in a dry spot, the floor may be disiensed
with and the earth may be used
or the floor. The tainted earth can oca^ionally
be removed to the depth of six
r eight inches and its place supplied
pith fresh earth. 11 dependence is piacea
;pon an earth floor, it must of course be
little above the surrounding ground, to
irovide good drainage. It is cheaper to
mild the house upon a kittle knoll or rise
if ground, or to raise & little mound of
arth before the house is built, than to
arrv the earth into the structure afterward.?

Household Hints.
A notable housekeeper says that stockigs
that have served their purpose and
re not serviceable for poor persons, are
iseful for iron-holders. They should be
nt down the seam and smoothly folded,
pith the foot inside. The edges should
ie iirmly overcast with strong linen
Sim nr\vor< for iron-holders arc
dmirable. They may be made of stout
ray linen in a bag shape. They are
lipped over the iron-holder and tacked
t the open end.
To remove a glas9 stopper, drop some
lyccriue in the surrounding crevice and
fter an hour or two it will loosen.
Nellie H. says: "When I wash dishes,
;aving on a clean dress, I draw over the
leeves a pair of old clean stocking tops,
cmmed at the bottom. These are easily
rpwn on and off, and since fashion reuires
that sleeves be worn too tight to
oil up, I can thus avoid changing my
ress."
