The injured are: John Gainer, aged SO years: Valentine Gibson, aged years: John Curtis, LenzyAI. Taylor, and John Bowers. They were employes ot the Muncie muck bar mill. In the mill there are live large boilers, and under tnese is a mud drum twenty-five feet long and three feet square. One end of the dram cracked and then burst. A stream of hot mud, boiling water and steam was thrown out tbe length of the mill ana five men who were stand ing in the line of the stream fell to the ground, either burned or cooked They were carried to their homes, where a number of physicians were summoned. xoe nesn on uainer's face hands, and legs is completely cooked and when h;s clothing- was removed, the outer flesh peeled off. It is thought he is burned internally and cannot recover. Gibson is also in a bad condition, his face and hands are in a blister. Curtis is in about the same condition Gainer. Taylor and Bowers are burned about the face ana hands and their bodies were scalded. Their eyes were filled with not mud and they ran wild arouna we factory screaming lor neip. i neir suffering was intense ana can not De aescrioea. The factory was slightly damaged. UVRJ JLOST. Many Parian In the Forest Flrea of the South. Memphis (Tern.) special: Reports from the forest fire districts in this vicinity show that while the loss to property is not great, considering the extent of territory covered, the loss of life exceeds apprehensions. 'Within fifteen miles of Memphis, three lives have been lost by fire in the past two days, and there are rumors of a fearfufburning in Arkansas, where five lives were lost. The remains, or nve human Deings were found the flesh and clothing all burned off. in t he St. Francis bottoms, all within a quarter of a mile of each other. There are fears that they are the remains of a party of hunters from Texas that went into that country last week, but there is nothing to support this except the number of bodies. The fatalities in this county were peculiarly distressing. Fannv Woods, an affed Depress, had her dress ignited as she tied from a Burning bouse, and sne ran, surrounded by the flames, until she tell dead. Pitt Roy, a 9-vear-old bov. ran into his father's house, which was on fire, to save some property. Tbe house collapsed and he was burned to death before many spectators. The name of toe tnira victim is not ascertainable. SWEPT BY FLAXES. Aflaiaff Campa In Colorado Destroyed by Boulder (Cola) special: A forest fire which was started from a campfire has been raging north ot the mining camp 6! Gold Hill, a town of about 900 inhabitants, fifteen miles northwest. The timber is as dry aa powder ana a nerce wma carried it over nve miles of dense timber in a short time. Fifty people came into Boulder in wagons from Gold Hill, mostly women and children. They report that tbe business men and miners were hastily carrying what goods and property they could into the mining tunnels and had abandoned any ho.e of saving their t lores ana aweiungs. rne gravity of tbe case is fully appreciated here in Boulder, and the utmost excitement prevails. It is believed many small camps will be ouroea. too residents of Gold mil, who have not come to Boulder, have assembled on the top of Horsefei mountain, and are watching the progress of the devouring names as they eat sneir lormer nomes. a b ou w-ii. " At Gibsonburg, Ohio, twenty-five miles from Toledo, Kirkebride Bros, have brought in an oil well which so far has eclipsed" all previous discov eries ot petroleum in the Ohio and Pennsylvania fields if not in the world. The well started at the rate of 300 bar rels an hour and has kept the phenominal record. The drillers did not expect such a gusher in a territory that has repeatedly been bored with indifferent success, and for hours the flow from the well could not be got into the tanks.

CHAS. E. STRONG DEAD

MANAGER OF THE NEWSPAPER UNION PASSES AWAY. The Well Kuonr.i and Highly Kltrrmpil Read of the L-irRPAt Auxiliary Printing Kstabltahmrnt in the World Succumbs to Heart Paralysis. kteh of lis Lifj. Charles K. Stronj. giwrtil mimiiwr of the Chit'iluo Newspaper I'nion ami its brunches, died at his home in CliiciiK' early Wednesday uioniinLt. paralysis of the heart being the iimueli!ite muse of death, although his illness dates from the tiaie of the animal meeting of the Ty potbetae at Philadelphia in September. While in attendance there he contracted a severe cold. This asfrravnted a compli cation of heart and broneliial troubles from which lie had long suffered, and on Nov. 7 he was diluted to lake to his room There were no particularly alarmini; symptoms, not even on the day and even ing of his death; in fact, his jovial spirits bad Riven the anxious ones hope of final recovery. At midnight, however. Sirs. Strong was awakened by unusual rest lessness on the part of her husband, nnd before the physician could be summoned CHARI.KS E STU'INO death had eoine peacefully and painlessly in the presence of his devoted wife nnd daughter. The deceased leaves a widow and two children, CSeorpe and Kmily. the former in bis capacity as malinger of tin; News paper I'nion's supply department being well known to the newspaper fraternity of tbe Northwest. After ft tourhiiig funeral service in Chicago, the remains were conveyed U Milwaukee Friday ly special train Nearly one hundred devoted employes accompanied the body to its last resting place, and by the side of the open hthw in Forest Home Cemetery mingled their sorrow with that of the grief-stricken family, and paid tribute to the memory of one whom they all loved. Story of His Life. Charles E. Strong was born in 1'nion City. Mich., March lis. 1SH. His pa rents were anions tbe early pioneers of that fctate. having located there in N.!C. in irw rney renmveii to .vmwaniue. is., where, at the nge of fourteen years, their eldest son. Charles K., was appren ticed to S. M. Booth, then publisher of the Daily Free Democrat, to learn tin printer's trade, with whom be remained for four years. Afterward Mr. Strong was engaged in the different newspaper and job printing offices in Milwaukee until the year 18(10. when he entered the office of the Kvenimr Wisconsin as com lositor, and two years bier was made foreman of that establishment, whi -h position he hehl until October, 1870. wh he was sent to Chicago by his employers to establish and nut m operation the Chicago Newspaper I'nion. which has become, under his management and direction, the largest auxiliary printint: house in the world. He had probably d .ne more to advance tne ready-print newspaper system than any other man in the country, and was the pioneer in practical work pertaining to that business, his first experience in making up what is (termed "patent inside" forms dating back to the spring of lSiU. Probably no man in Chicago had a larger more agreeable ncnunintnnci ship or was held in greater esteem among the country publishers of the West than Charles E. Strong.' NEW DIPHTHERIA TREATMENT. Serum Oreatly Reduces the Death Kate, bnt la Very Costly. Among the reports coming to the State Department upon the new serum freatmeut for diphtheria is one from Consul General Charles DeKay at Berlin, exhibiting tbe eflk-acy of the new treatment by comparison. lie says that the establishment at Scheriug, near tbe Jungfern Heme, has forty horses under treatment for the production of serum, yet tbe demaud has been so great that the hospitals ran out or it m September. This has a singular effect on the dentil rate, which in children under four, the most difficult age, had sunk to 11 tier cent, before the exhaustion of the store of serum; it rose during October to !0 per cent. Ihe serum is costly, because estab lishments for its production are few; it takes a long while to prepare and must be had comparatively fresh. It takes at least nine months and sometimes a year to get the animals ail under three v'ears old into condition. One animal does not furnish much blood at n timo snv two quarts. It must be carefully fed between dates of tapping, and us in time the strength of its blood as a means of cure gives out, it is necessary to go over again the process of cultivating the bacillus. Absolute certainty is not ascribed to the cure, and cases in which other diseases are present should not be considered a fair test of its virtues. Sparks from the Wire. A project is afoot to esmlitiul, t..i... phonic communication between I,niul,,i, and the Netherlands. James Nolns was shot and killed by Wild Bill" Turner at Middlesboro.

She had equipped and seen him off joyfully, and ho had had no idea of roing whom ho should not huvo gone, nor of doing what ho should not have done, until inforniel by Donald, or rather by Donald's iiejfo lady of his hijrh tn!sdon;oanor. lie, was now disposed to return evil for good, and instead of saying "Thank you'1 to his lamllauv for a merry afternoon's excellent sport, to slip through hor lingers, and let her cook her unsavory dinner for some one else. "1 should like to fee the Raymonds again,"' was, however, all he said, "Thon coma up and dine with mo," replied Jerry promptly. "Do I am suio you may. 1 am sure granny would let .no ask you." "Aro you sure'" said Belienden, tin ablo to help smiling at tho childish form the invitation ha i taken. "13ut then you soo, I do not know your grandmamma, and" "It is not sxunny's house, you know: it is mine," anxiously. "Oh, I understand." "And if I ask you," the spoilt child again asserting itself in her toiio: "if 1 usk you" "1 need oo other invitation, certainly," said he courteously. "Only, you see you aro really too kind. You do not oven know my name." "Well, what is your name?" "Bellon-ten. But I will tell you what I can do. Miss Caranbell " "Don't call me Miss Campbell: it makes mo feel foolifh." "But in my turn, I don't know your name I moan your other name." "It is Goraldine, but no one calls me that except Cecil." i "Cecil again,'1 thought he. Cecil is privileged. I presume. What am I to call von, then?" he inquired aloud. 'Every one : "way, Jerry, ot course. does. ' "Very well, Jerry." But she saw he was laughing. She was so changeful o wiiemsicai. tuis sprite oi a cniettainess, that one moment it would be mv castle," "my moor," "my" every thing, and tho next she was asking him to call her "Jerry!" One thing, how- ' ever, was clear, that what she asked : must be dono: and amazed at himself ! for tho readiness with which he fell in : wi:h her humors, Belienden only hoped i the adventure would proceed as cheer- . ny as it naa Begun. "Well then, Jerry, what am 1 to do ! now?" he dutifully proceeded. "Am I to get your cousin to bring me up with him? Am I to tell him you invited me?" "If you could, do without telling him that:" "Oh, 1 could, of course. But why do you mind? Will you not tell your : grandmother?" for it struck him that 1 unlee some one were told, ho could ; not very well accept of such haphaz ard hospitality. OI course 111 tell granny. The; child's eyes opened. "I tell granny , everymiug. sne uoesu t matter. ex plained the candid grandchild: "and I ' don't see why I should mind Ceeil, : either," added she bravely, "only that : I don t like to vex my poor dear, and it ; ho were to lecture me, it would vex her. ft is not for mvself I mind." enn- ! cludod she with earnest emphasis, sne sua a t oo ve.xed," said Boiienden quietly. "I can manage that. Good-by. then, till we meet again. I must go down now or l shall bo too late. Is it straight down, through the woods?" Yos, you can't go wrong. Good bye. Dinner is at half-past seven." And ho lelt the palm of a warm, wet. littlo hand in bis ."or a moment, and all perception of unco ith garb and ec centric headgear vanished in the light, of a pair of bright eyes looking full in to nis. By .love: what a nice child!" he thought. He was only just in timo when tho boat eaxe in: long before the few pas sengers had landed, the slim hgure of Cecil Raymond, arrayed in tho long light truvelmg coat which was then the mode, was clearly discernible ou the (runaway, while the usual paraphernalia of a sportsman tho gun ease, rod, smart portmanteau, and railway rug whieo was visible below could have belonged to no ono else on board. Ab swiftly as ho wus himself distinguished, did he distinguish Cant. lieiionden of the t'irst L,ife Guards, the principal guest and smartest man of the party assembled at a baeholor cousin's for the Ascot week the r revious June. m,mr I fnmYinfl hurl f ti,,nrV,l n m,ant deal of being included in that party, had often since referred to it, and casually mentioned as people will, you know that Belienden had been there. He had not met Belienden sines, and the point now was, would Belienden know him again0 Had tho meeting taken place any where else, anywhere bnt in that lonely spot, he would hardiy have ex pected recognition -but per. aps-an.l just as ho was doubting and cogitating, his mind was sot at rest in tho mos, satislactory manner possible. Ho was not only known oul bailed, and bailed with remarkable cordiality and fervor, his hand warmly grasped, and his ac quaintanceship claimed without the slightest shade oi hesitation. He ha l hardly ever beon more aratihed. Ho who had been the veriest nonentity at tho AbcoI meeting, who had not ex changed abovo a dozen or two sen tences with tne great man or tne arty, and who had felt tho distance etvvcen him, a !ad of nineteen in his first year at Oxford, and Cant. Belien den. a man of the world and certainly ten years, if not more, his senior, as quite immeasurable, now to bo met oh equal terms and in the easiest fashion! Thcro could be but one solution of the problem. Stopping' at my grandrootner s, l suppose?" he sugnested at once, with this thought in his mind, that tomo one must havo sent tho traveler there for a night's lodging on his way to moro congenial haunts. Of course Inehmarow Castle would a' ways be a roinectablo plaee to send any one to. and somo friond had probably given Belienden an introduction, and but Bellondeu's lirst words dispelled the idea. Indeed I am not so happy," he said, carelessly. ' There is wnorc I am stop ping," pointing to the wretched little nn at the head ol the pier. "Jam on my way farther up tho loch, and am fairly caught ana innoou here lor mo want of the moans of procoedintj." Ho thon explained his t-ud plight more fully, though affecting to treat the whole as a jest, and without throwing out hint or suggestion ot any v.ossimo amendment. "Oh, I shall do well enough," ho con luded, "and 1 can get on to Kincraiff lirst thing to-morrow; 1 only wish you would come and spend tho evening with mo. But you aro going on to friends. I suppose?" xo lucninarow over tiiui -n ,ua. I'll tell you what," said Ceeil suddenly. vou must; roaiiy come Micro uio. i ou must indoc-4. There it no one but my gradmothoi'. Airs.

It is going to be a beastly night. You had much better come up while it is only as slight as this; there will be a downpour ly-and-lv. 1 can assure you, you may trust mo that it will bc'ull right." "I - upon my word, you are too kind." Xot at all." I am only mv grandmother's spokesman. Here you,IIoctor, got out Cant. Bcllenden's things from the inn. and put them into the dog dart wit h mine. And, I say, tell Mrs. Maconochic it will lie all right.'" "But supposing the house is full,-"' 'ln'cliniarcvv full; Oh. you have not seen the castle yet. It is u huge place. But at present t hey have nobody, for my cousin is so young that they aro living as quietly as possible.'' "I have met your cousin already, anashe gave me permission to lish in the stream. I have had a capital afternoon's trouting in consequence." "Have you? I'm glad of that. If the boat lia l come in sooner, J hud meant to run up to somo of tho high pools before dinner. I know tho water would be good." "Your co.. sin kindly showed mo the high pools herself." "BeaHy? Oh. you have mot Goraldine herself, tlien? Put the puu-eaws in hero. Hector, along with mine.

And . tne two mounted; and of so little tou'equenco did it soein to be in young Raymond's eyes whether or no his young cousin had been casual'y met for a passing minute, or hud been spent the whole afternoon with, that Belienden did not think it worth his while to inform him on tho subject. C11APTKR IV. PLAYFELLOWS. " 'Ami which am 1 iuf gt like?' alic s:iil : Your Chloe, or your uttt-broWD uiaid V " Driving along, Cecil chatted merrily, with a sense of doing the honors natural to one who, as t Iioir nearest male relative, took tho bottom of the table, inspectod tho kennels, and reported upon tho stables, whenever ho visited the ladies of Inehmarow. " Ho was now in tho apologetic vein. The property, ho confined, was being nursed at Present. There was a ea' ' retrenchment going on. The grounds were not Kept up as they had beou. tils grandfather Had knocked off a lot of under-st rappers and useless hangers on The gardens too. hud been ridiculously expeusive, ami she had curtailed them considerably. Of course, when his cousin came of age, those things would be different. She could thon do as she chose: bat for tho present he thought his grandmother was very wise tospond as littlo as need bo. It was not as if they were living in the worldwith more of the kind. To all of this his companion cheerfully assented, as he would have done to almost anything at the moment. The relief of getting away from the hovel, tho thought of which had frown moro insupportable than ever uriug t he past half-hour, was so intense that he would have permitted Mrs. Campbell to knock off every gardenor on tho place, and curtail her expenditure in every direction, so long as he was given a decent dinner to eat and a decent bed to sleep. There was, however, no call for such indulgence. A brief experience sutficed to show that tho boyish brag of a youth, anxious to enhanco the dignity of a11 connected with him, was on the present occasion making a great deal oul 01 a yeri mi to. x nere mtgnt oe ! retrenchment there was certainly no Hiscomfort uor disorder anywhere, 2. lU5JCk:iuic umci i maul -uumu stood in the doorwav to receive the new arrival, and u trim lad in u quiet but neat livery ran down the steps.and began to take out the luggage" with deft dispatch. Mrs. Campbell, Mr. Haymow! was informed, was in the drawing-room awaiting him. and Belienden, who lingered for a moment affecting to bo occupied with his belongings, but in reality to allow a moment for explanation, had soon the satisfaction of seeing the stately dame emerge from a distant doorway, escorted by her nephew, all eagerness to present his friend. For an expected guest she could wait within tho ante-chamber: but courtesy Xo a stranger, and ono not assured of a weKome, sent her forth to meet him. He felt- at once all that ho might now hope for. His own manner, always easy and engaging, at once rose with the occasion, ana he bowed over tho hand held out to him with the reverence of a courtier. "He is oharmirg." thought she. Never was s.ich luck," thought he. Each smiled at the other, and the good understanding wus complete. "It is goinff to be a very wet night, I fear," said Mrs. Campbell, glancing outside, as the raindrops now beg.m to beat heavily against the tall, narrow windows, "i fear, Cecil that there is not much chance of your having a line day ibr- tlio iroor to-morrow. I consulted o-.ir weather wise old gardenf r Macdonahl oil the subject, and he shook his head. Unfortunately for you, we havo had a long spell of lino weather, it has been roally too line of late, and every ono began to fear it could not last much longer. You know that August is never our best, month, and one cannot expect summer weather to last forever." "ivo, wo can't, (grandmamma," Cecil only smiled to himself, and only smiled to remember bow often ho hud hei.rd the sumo before, it seemed to him that he had heard it ever since he could remember the time-worn apology for the mists of 'nehmarew. And yet how t'early ho lovud tho place, mid its inmates. Its very rains, and roods, and cloud-capped mountain-peaks were sacred in his eves, and he would not have let Belienden into the secret of its infirmity for the world. Who could say but what the morning might see glorious sunshine and melting warmth: and if so, why not have been prepared for it? "i have no doubt it will clear by-and-by," ho said readily: "and let it raiii as much as it will to night, ihere'H no harm tloiic. Grandmamma, i an wo havo a fire in tho billiard-room this evening? I dare say Cnpt. Belienden would like a game of billiards after dinner," "Certainly, my dear." And the order was given. "And let tho fire be lit at once," added tho old lady, anxious to do everything well. "The room may be a little dump:" in explanation to Belienden, "for it has not been used this summer." "Not been used this summer: (iood hoavons;" inwardly ejaculated he. "And I am to play on a tablo not used this umimor. It was a blow, and ho wa" only junt able to avoid showing that it was one. "I am afraid it will not be in very good condition," continued Cecil ltaymond, who was but half a degree moro learned ou the subji ct than his grandmother. "Hut. you must make allowances: and, anyway, it's better than doing nothing. " "And, anyway, it is a very great deal hotter than sitting in the midst of peal-i eek and whisky at the "Ferry Inn:" rellocted his friend. And tho thought restored his former equanimity a if by magic. lie had. as ho was wont to say of himself, tho knacK of being civil. Accustomed to luxury, and courted bv prosperity, ho was yet of so hor.. : '. : 'i: poramont, thai ill-fortune daunt, nor a. iverse clnmmst ..... : him, To oecapo either, Ik- v , ! fttl, m wo know, oxen in. - . &.,;:

would havo beard more of the mutter Ho would have smoked a philosophical cigar, gone to bed, and proceeded on his journey the next day without tin oath or a grumble. Ho wus bv no means a bad sort of fellow. Ho now dressed himself for dinnei serenely, with s -arce a moment's re grot for the services of the valet, who had been sent on to Kincraisr by another nnd a swifter route, and whoso absence hud been a real satisfaction to his master during the terrible auticipat ions of tho afternoon. He was not by any meansrioilepemlent on tho very line gentleman as Monsieur 1'ierrc sup posed, and could calmly pa It Ins own portmanteau, and put on ti is own coat when compelled bv necessity to do o By nature lie w as a very handsome man - and cured singularly little about it. By nrt ho was a perfectly dressed man and that, bo considered, was every one's business rather than his own. He went to Hie best tailor, hat ter, hair-cutter, and hoot-maker . in town, and lie could do no inure." If the result, was not satisfactory, it wa no iaullot his, aim, m consequence, no misgiving nor tmeasine-s on the sub ject ever disturbed his ii'ind. Sooner than anv other person, he now descended to the drawing-room. "Oh, I'm the first." lie began, half aloud. "What has becomo of mv littlo lisber-lassic, I wonder? Is she going to give me the slip? Or stop: here she comes. It was, however, no Usher-lassie who now nppeareJ.

TO HE CONTINUED. How Large Are Atoms? .Science informs us that all bodies are composed of atoms and molecules. alouia being the sin I lest particles into which matter in general can be divided, and molecules the smallest particles into which any particular body can be divided without losing its identity. I-'or instance, the smallest particles of salt are mole, cules, but such molecules may be split up into articles composed of sodium and particles couip-.-sed of chlorine, and these elementary parti cles, which cannot again be divided, are atoms. But no one has ever been able to see, or distinguish, a molecule or an atom. Yet the possibility of their being rendered visible has more than once boon discussed. Only a short time ago such a discussion occurred at n meeting of the 1 hysical irociety i i London, and reasons were then shown for believing that mole ules are not indefinitely small comparison with the wave lenth of light, which averages something 1 ke one-lifty thousandth of an inch. Ton or eleven years ago Sir William Thompson, now Lor.l Kel vin, investigated the question of the actual si.e of atoms and molecules, and came to the conclusion that, ut the largest, thev might be one twen-ly-uvomillionUi of an inch in diame ter' That would mane them so small that f(0 amid lio in a row within the length of a wave of light. Jt Is dirticult to iniagiDe that par ticlea so minute should ever lie ren dered visible to human eyes, and yet, as lias .lust been remarked, the pos bllit-y of secini; them is occasionally discussed by men of science. Hut If such a leat of seeing ever Is performed, it will certainly prove to be something more thauamoregratiQcation of curiosity. Many of the most recondit questions in science would be suddenly illuminated bv the discovery of a means of watching an atom as we now watch a rotifer un der the microscope. A New-Kaujjle I Swiss Watch. A curious application of the phono graph to watches has been made recently by a watchmaker at Geneva, Switzerland, in whoso repeating watches the bell is replaeed by a cir cular disc of vuleani ed rubber less than two inches in diameter, upon whi h phonographic lines correspond ing to a ei rtain series of spoken words are spl. ally engraved. The passage of a vibrating point over these lines causes the watch literally to tell tho hours, and even, when desired, to sound an a'arm and awaken the sleeper. It has been demonstrated that the point may pass many thousand times over the lines on the disc without wearing tneui away ap preciably. When the watch s; eaks the hours its voice is e'earand distinct twenty feet away with a closed dcor between. Try in e. 1 here are some cases in winch a correct musical ear causes its possess or a good deal of discomfort.
