For awhile the crisis was believed to have been passed, but the wind has again carried sparks and burning brands to territory which has aot been burned over.

Fighting the encroaching flames is again being vigorously prosecuted, but with little hope of stopping the desolation. The high wind is carrying the immense waste of ashes to all sections of the country, and a veriable storm of the fine particles is being experienced im some localities. No attempt has been made, or can be made, to estimate the loss.

The villages of Hamlet and Davis, on the Fort Wayne road, 20 miles east of Valparaiso, are in danger of destruction. The Pennsylvania officials have ordered out all section men between Plymouth and Valparaiso to go to Davis and Hamlet to fight the fire. The company's bridges and tracks are in danger. The westbound passenger trains were nearly two hours late last night. The whole country south of Hamlet and Davis is ablaze and farmers were obliged, to leave their homes in order to save their lives.

EATEN BY~1HOGS.

The upper extremities had been eaten by the hogs, but papers in the pockets of the clothing established his identity.

Mr. Humphrey was troubled with heart failure, and it is the supposition that while going through the woods he was stricken and died. The body was found about one mile outside of the path usually taken in going to town. Some think that he may have committed suicide, but ho was a well-to-do farmer and no cause can be assigned.
