Tiresome miles ot incorrigible waste \Vcro pasted, and the prospect spread out limit leeslv, when the buck-board came to a- lii.lt on the edge of a clearing that the aching eyes could hardly distinguish from the miles of nbominal lo waste already traversal. “This Vrc,” said the driver, solemnly* risiu.r impressively on the tnimiton.splatform of tin; hack-board, mid hw oepiug Tie* air with his disengaged anu, wa*» thvjmill—William son’s in ill, where they had the clrcadfuEost least that night that ever a human creotcr See; I didn’t sou tin; lire, but I was hem next day,” he added cautiously. Torn Hush, ihe bani-mr.su r, was hero all tin; nigh!, and fc on the roah of the barn a long .•mell, while the buildings was cat**hin ?r The vehicle had (.(.mo upon a wide a*di*-n bolt, like a roadway, inclosing an oblong clearing of live acres or more. Profound hilenco rested in the stagnant air—life seemed never to have had existence in the lonely earner. The smooth, powdery ground lay iua*t**»- nal e strips ol white ami red ashes, with hero and then* Macksquarcs whom the buildings were, and reminding one horribly of a lj* el.ess-hoard, .w-hose lest game hajl been beiwfen J.ife and Death, and where Liiolud been hopelessly-checkmated. liumjju annals do not surpass, in equal time and space, the immensity ami intensity of suffering and death crowded into the mcngre epitome of one frightful hour. Tlio scene of a thriving industry, and tho home of rrcily a hitudrcd people, the plane, though isolated from any human vicinity, had maintained a flourishing and tranquil vitali ty. The shinglo-niiil, with itacoidiiitaar- in dustries, gave employment to .th« entire peojflc, women and children dividing the easy labors of shingling and lauding. Tuerc were hut four bniluinea on the clearing—the mill, the general boarding-house, a store, and the barn. Economy and convenience, cun oub to tar, had dictated the selection of this remote spot. The timber inexhaustibly eoveicd the place, and it was of nnoquaUoi quality; a lazy little stream meandering through the gnarled roots and soft soil otter ed a. supply of water, euongh wiih artesian wollb to drive the'mill machinery. It was cheaper to work the great logs iuto marketa ble shape here, where they were right at hard, than establish the mills mi the lake or hay and drag tho immense tim ber over miles of wretched roads. The llm*y experience of the wot shore—of tho whole Koithcni Wisconsin, had been tbeexperience of this wood-immersed hamlet. For wua-i* incessant, laborious battle hud been wag**d night ami day, reliefs of men, and even wo men taking turns iu the exhausting contest. It was hoped that all danger had been warded oil when a wide belt, fnliy a mile deep, lias been burned outward from the dealing. The serenity of assured safety had come upon the people when this bhvk cir cumvallation was complete—tho very night before the calamity. On that fatal gimday morning tho mill operations suspended, and the men who had homes iu the neighboring towns of Big aud Little Sturgeon made an early start through the woods. When night came, some kindly Prov idence di t.lined them, aud tho massacre was so much less. The night camo on tran quilly, the humid air gave grateful promise of coming rain, ami tho InKt lingering dis trust was banished from thethnidesL inhabi tant. Early in the night most of tho little population’in tho h mulct were in-doors iu bed. Jt wasstill curly when* thoso ra-inailv astir outside saw a meal glowing light sboat atliv.Mil the southern sky, and. spreading rapidly v.usl and northward. eontln n*d wit!i dazzlingbrilliancy. Presently aslemW cnl mun of tiro shot forward, and, car.glil by a whirlwind, camoplowhiug rliranyii r.r>’-oMld timber towsud the mill. By thin li »n-.; l!u* slid orsaml all had rushed from the barrack in a wild, clamoring couste.rnaiioii. Time brothi'is.

This was the Inst slir»d of eoli-r.vit iiduci among the frightened people. S.vifl whirling columns of flame had cat through the ii.tei veuing timber, aud fell voraciously on the light frame buildings. Tins whirl wind lashing the trcis iu:o fragments caught the lit** in tearing surg«s. and flung it about iu billowy waves among the Tree-tups. Slender tongues ol lire tailing from above played in nuTwoh-nt erncmb across tlie clvaring, A despertitson of terror tilled men, wouvn. uud ebihlicn—a terror as natural as fatal, for. had cenaaou fortitude led the gionji. not a soul uced liavc jierishcd.

Even as laic as Sulmd iy it Juid been bsed as u place of refuge no: with standing. and when the actual d.mg.-rcame, the cicdulous mass rcmmnhored t!m delusive pit. If that fatal spot had not- been, if the whiuifibal belief- had net obtained a firm hold, there is not the slightest don.it but the 17 that perished would have escaped in Ihe neighboring woods. Into that cramped place, oowding. buffeting, begging, cursing, inubring, praying. shrieking, mm. children, aud women elbowed and lougbt in the frenzy of a hideous ibvipei atieu and terror. Kot largo, enough U> admit a dozen by the close packing, nearly ->p wrestled s.ud crowded in and about tin; iV.al siKit, Wiih ostrich instinct, iu the abject ucus i f their unreasoning fear, men plowed their burning heads under tho living .pyre.* An inestimable pyramid of bodies. \:i all Mills i f cenet ivablc postures, stood m the llame-swept place.

A bit of. romance tinges tho glaring picture. Ills sweetheart was tho lolativn of tho mill-owners. Miss Magda Williamson, a girl, it is said, of rare beauty and attraction. Tho young fol low. bright and. cultured hsyoudluslaml, re garded with favor uud olfaction for many u mile around, had won her heart, aud tho two were to have bv im married. Tho girl with her kindred bad lied to tho potato patch, aud liens suffocating with smoke, their garmoats in flames, and writhing in awful atumy, tho voting follow found tlu; chief part of the peo ple.

Useless, With tlu* skin hanging in shreds upon his hands au l forehead, he carried water and poured it on .tho infatuated group, while the ignoble crowding went on madly among tho awißly roasting crowd. Tho tumulnunu struggle had been from the tirst. a loathsome, unrea soning fear: a momeui’> coolness, a moment* cessation of the iriuhtful cllbrt to wedge downward, would have givon Ufo to- alb The time came, however, when tho fauutiu Merrill, stripped almo-?t. of clothing ami burned beyond recognition. 4 had to give up the heroic effort, amt. plunging through tUo darting flame, dashed his burning body m tho well. Earlier in the catastrophe a half dozen heavy sleepers had found tardiness their sal vation from the potato patch, and they dart ed into tho timber belt, which had been care fully burned cut long before to keep tho.lirp from the houses. Here, prone on the ground, thev protected themselves, while tho mad crowd, not ton vnrds away, rousted iu their blindness. The f tiling trees could be guarded against, but nothing could save from tho en compassing tiro in tho clearings. One came, tod, whose frail chance of life the mcauo/t creature, struggling in that hot .pit, would not have refused, an old, tottcniig* half blind, trembling -woman, motbarto tho owners of tho mill. She must have been forgotten in the first rush, for when she came toward the potato patch it was ulled wit li a swarming crowd thrown prone upan their faces iu the shallow depths of tho pota to pit. Seven of her kindred writhed in that hideous knot. Passing on with docropit step, the venerable* mother, whose SI .years and not worn Out coolness and discretion, camo uiKm a great bowlder near tho edge of the timber. Climbing on this, though naif suf focated, she covered her head with her skirts, and, with clothes carefully tucked up from the running flames, kept for hours on the. back of this unique salamander.
