A Waspish Sting. i What some wag terms "the business end of a wasp” stings with scarcely more acuteness than the acid eructations of gas from the stomach to the gullet that are characterized as heartburn.

The fire started shortly before 6 o clock in the wholesale liquor house of A. Blade & Son. The wind at the time vas blowing fully sixty miles an hour. As the fre broke through the roof the hurricane caught up the brands, and, ■whirling them across the block, flung them full on the seven-story building of Bubb & Kipp on the corner of Broadway and Buffalo streets. Before the engines on a thiid alarm could arrive and come into action the Kipp building was a mass of flames. This was the beginning of the end. The sparks were caught up by the gale and whirled hither and yon, while the firemen, fighting bravely in the molten shower, found their efforts powerless to stay the progress of the flames. A general alarm was turned in, bringing the entile t ghting force of the city into action, but it was unable to stay the steady march of the flames which now were rioting blocks away. brom this on it was a stead v eon oner-

People Driven from Their Homes. Balked hero, the flames threw themselves with renewed vigor on the territory to the eastward and leeward. There no engines stayed their progress, and they rioted dO.vn across Broadway,’ stopped for a moment in the block between that street and Milwaukee street, then jumped over that and cont nued their unimpeded career toward the lake, a half mile away, carrying destruction, ruin, and despair to poor families who were in their path. These people hurriedly left their homes, carrying with them what they could, and where this was impossible by the sudden onset of the hurricane of fire fled swiftly, not stopping Io look

Roughly it is a

Exactly at 9:30, less than two hours after th i call for help was received, the tra n left the north end of the Northwestern yards, with G. M. Harshaw, a trusty diiver, at the throttle. The train consisted only of four flat cars containing the fire apparatus and a caboose, and looked more like a circus train than anything else. The caboose was idled with firemen, reporters, and fire-insur-ance adjusters. It was run as a special, and was given a through right of way from Chicago to Milwaukee. Assistance also came from Kenosha, | Racine and other towns near by. In the meantime in Milwaukee the scenes of Chicago’s big fire were repi ated. Hundreds of poor householders carried in tlieir arms, in carts or wagons whatever they had been able to seize and save before they were obliged to fly from their burning homes. I hey did not feel safe until they put the Milwaukee Rivi r between them and the destroying enemy. Ti e few engines which could be brought into action were unable to prevent the wild riot. Every street look-

ing south was a molten hell. The efforts of that p rtion of the department to the west and north of the tire ha 1 been directed toward holding it from any retrograde march, and in this the men were successful. Fully 10,000 people were made homeless and leading insurance men say that about half the loss is covered by insurance. They estimate the total loss at $5,775,500.

False Steps. It is a rather striking circumstance that the matter in which men and women most commonly take a seri- । I ous false stop is that which is least i; । readily acknowledged Probably the i 1 comnio^sL. dll aiiU oliU l/ulii. TiL’t parties to it most carefully conceal । from themselves. The reluctance which people feel to recognize, even in their own minds, an irreparable I

mistake such as this is a measure of ' the sincerity with which they are , willing to attribute ill-fortune to their mistakes in other pieces of con- , duct. Certainly nobody can blame । them for making the best of what is . irretrevii’ le. It a man finds that his , wife is shamefully extravagant, or a great fool, or a sinew, he may be more . than pardoned for trying not to sec what a fearful burden he has been at the trouble to tic round his neck, i And when a woman finds that her j husband is a tyrant, or intolerably | self-opinonated, or openly indifferent ■ to her. she is right in making the I best of her bargain. Where a real; false step has 1 cen taken everybody; does all th it he can to make it a; lit-1 tie mischievous as may be. hen j people are found 1 emoaning some one blunder as the case of all their ills, instead of leaving the blunder to itself, we may be pretty sure that they do not mean what they say. or else that their ills have been the natural result', not of one false step, but of a confirming h ibit of mental staggering and stumbling.

In the sixteenth century, the dag. ger was made surprisingly rich and elegant, and its sheath served loi other purposes than simplv holding the blade. It was the custom among the traveling gentry to carry with them, in their trips, such necessary articles as knives, p’neh rs, files, ’ scissors, and many ether articles of the table or toilet. They were compell d । tocarry the.s 1 things,as theywere by no i means common, and could not be ob- ■ tained at every stopping-place. For many of them, the sheath of the dagger, always attached to the per- ’ i .son, was utilized as a case.

P South America. Germany is looking towards South America in order to find a new channel! for her trade. T his is the way commerce adjusts itself. It is constantly seeking, new avenues for its products. The old! ways are left for capital, the new ways are open to energy and enterprise. The chief requisite for these attempts to find! new channels for trade is gocd health. The man who is sick lacks nervous force.
