FOREST FIRIS.

Have Wlpe«l Maiiy Himifs «f SItneri la WHHilillJftOU. CHICAGO, Aug. 19.—A Times-Herald special from Spokane, Wash., says: "Forest fires continue to spread with fearful rapidity throughout Stevons county, in this state, Kotenai and Shoshone counties, Idaho, and in the mining districts across the line in British Columbia. For two days Rossland, B. C., the booming Camp Trail Creek mining town has been threatened on all sides by ffres. Every able-bodied citizen in the town and mines surrounding has been fighting day and night to save it from destruction, and by herculean efforts they have succeeded. The flames are now many miles away, licking up everything in their path. Not only are the fires destroying grand forests of timber, but have wiped out the cabin home and supplies of many a miner and in numerous instances they have had to flee for their lives.

Tales told by the fugitives of their narrow escapes are thrilling in the extreme. Three Porks, a small mining town in Slocan County, was burned out completely and the inhabitants narrowly escaped. The families are coming into Knslo and Slocum footsore and destitute. Many hundreds of prospectors are in the burning districts and fears are entertained that many will not be heard of again.

In the (Joirer d'Aleno country the fires continue with unabated fury. Miners and prospectors are deserting their cabin homes in the path of the flames and are seeking refuge in places of safety.

Nothing has been heard from the little village of Salt-ese, which was reported threatened with destruction Saturday. It is isolated from communication by wires, and several days may elapse before definite news can be had from there. This season has been a dry one, ond in a measure accounts for the terrible havoc now being dune by the flames.

JUDGE LYNCH.

Held a

Sts.iii'ii

ia Florida .Sunday—Xo Person Objected.

WEST PAT.M REACH, Fla., Aug. 19.— Samuel Lewis, murderer of three men, was taken from jail at Juno at 3 a. m., by a mob of masked men, and lynched. When the mob demanded Lewis the jailor said they could have him if they would harm no one else, to which they consented. As the door was opened a negro deputy ran out. Some one fired, missing him and killing Gustave Kaiser, the jailor. The mob continued firing at the negro but he escaped. Four men then entered the jail and took Lewis, who begged pitifully for his life, to a telegraph pole, where he WHS hanged, after which the body was riddled with bullets.

Lewis shot and killed John Highsmith, ex-tax collector of Dade county, and his brother-in-law, George Davis, in cold blood. Lewis escaped, but a posse caught him. In arresting him Lewis shot and killed Deputy County Clerk Ret McGregor. Lewis is said to have killed five men before.

BURNED TO DEATH.

ELGIN, Ills., Aug. 19.—Frank Ka/.ar and his 4-year-okl daughter, Sylvia, were burned to death in a lire which destroyed their residence and several other buildings at Algoinuiin, a small village liyar here, early Sunday morning.

Kazar was crazed with grief and resisted tiie ell'orts of neighbors to drag lam from the burning structure, clinging to the door frame until the roof fell in, burying hi in in the blazing mass. The loss aggregates a few thousand dollars.

TIIK, O., Aug. 1!).—Tohu

Buchanan and wife were arrested Saturday, charged with inhumanely treating their i:5-year-old adopted daughter, Emma Minke. The girl was taken from the infirmary and adopted by them six years ago, since which time she has been subiect to abuse.

It is said to have been a common thing for the woman to strip the child naked and then beat her with, the buggy whip. These whippings, it is alleged, were not of occasional occurrences, but were almost a daily event, and one witness testified that they ofsen happened three or four times in a single oav.

MISSIONARIES IN DANGER.

Great Indignation Expressed Against the Clergy ill Peru.

LIMA, Peru, Aug. l'J.—American missionaries are the object of intense indignation at Cuzco. They arrived, and clergy and people at once made a demand on the government to expel them. The government replied that they were trustworthy missionaries, entitled to consideration as long as they were law-abiding, and instructed the city otiieials to guard their missions.

The government declared that Protestants were equivalent to Catholics under the law. An insurrection is imminent.

stopped by the Sheriff.

STKKATOK, Ills., Aug. 15).—T'lio prize fight between Eddie Myer ot Ht reator and Peter Boyle ot Chicago took place Saturday morning at-1 o'clock at Evans in Marshall county. It was stopped at the end of the sixteenth round by me sheriff and the releree declared it a draw, although Boyle had much the best of it. Saturday the Civic federation swore out warrants tor the arrest of Myer and his trainer and backers, but they left here in carriages and were picked up by a special train. Boyle's backers say both of Myers' hands were used up and Boyle would have been an easy winner.

A Similarity of Name*.

SAN FHANCISCO, Aug. 19.—Last night a dispatch was received from San Jose stating that Miss Evelyn McCormick, an art student, had committed suicide. It was supposed that it was Miss Evelyn McCormick, the well known California artist, who had killed herself, but instead it was Miss Nellie McCormick, a student at the art institute. But the similarity in til? names led to the mistake.
