Lost in a Chicago Wilderness.

Chicago Herald. Ward Thirty-three of the city of Qjicago is a great big thing. It is ten miles long and three miles wide, and contains 19,200 acres. Ward Thirty-three is watered by one noble river, the Grand Calumet, and encloses one entire body of water, Hyde Lake, besides being entitled to three and a half miles of shore line on the Calumet Lake, with all the rights, privileges, and hereditaments thereunto belonging. It also shares dominion over Wolf Lake with the sovereign State of In diana, and has more .than a xnile_squar» of -the waters of that inland sea within its own confines. There are sixty railroad stations and seven Post Offices in the ward, and the population is fairly estimated at 100,000. . A party of hunters was gunning in section 25 when I walked down there. Snipe shooting had never been better, and each of them was burdened with a bag full of game. They rowed me across the outlet of the lake, and 1 started south over the low lands. Woods are plentiful down here, and they hid 138th street, which is the southern boundary of the city. The sky was clouded, and I was not certain about my direction. Blackberries and wild currants grew thick on the bushes, and furnished an excellent dessert for the dinner I hoped to find later. I was tryibg to travel in a southwesterly course, and I wondered all the forenoon why I could’t find the Michigan Central tracks. Tliere were paths through the wood, and I tried my best to follow them and still keep my direction, but about noon I came out square on the south shore of Lake Calumet. I had been lost in the forests of Ward Thirty-three.
