IMMENSE DAMAGE DONE IN .wtral AUSTRALIA AND VICTORIA. three Ilandred Sides at Flames—Town of Mount Pleasant laid a Narrow Escape —minty Lives Lost and Thousands of cattle and siieep likestroyed. Australia has been broiling in the heat of an unusually hot summer. For a week South Australia and Victoria lay under a torrid way°, which sent the mercury up to 109 in the shade, and dried things up so that the heated terin has been fol- lowed by raging, roaring bush fires, vhich have destroyed thousands of sheep and cattle, left farm houses masses of charred ruins, set fire to towns, and burned to death men and caaididren. In one place 300 miles of flames swept across the country. In the Mount Pleasant district of South Australia 50,000 acres of growing grass were destroyed by a the which burned for three days and covered nearly 100 square miles of country. This fire died out only ,when there was nothing left for it to feed upon in that region. IIOW A TOWN, WAS SAVED. The town of Mount Pleasant nar- rowly eeceped destruction with all its inhabitants. As a wall of flame came sweeping down upon the town, all the men, women and children, the rich and the poor, the wall and such of the sick as could stand upon their feet, came out to meet 4t, and the great battle with the tire began. They, cut great boughs from the trees and as the fire ran toward tgem in the grass they beat it down and 'extinguished it by flogging with the new -cut 1:manatee. Sleep and 'food were not thought of. In the ,terrible heat of the sun and flames, )and through the long, hot, stifling made himinous with the red light of the burning plains, the citi- zens worked for their homes ,and their lives.

S., Tells an Interesting Story From His Own Exper- ience. From „the Progre,SI, Lunenburg, N.S. . Capt. Adnali Burns', of Dayspring, 'Lulnenburg, Co., N.'S., is a pnoininene [representative of a large class of men, in Nova. 'Seotias .who, duking Much of the year, follow the danger- otia occupation of deep ' sea fish- ing. •When not at sea Capt.

Burns, however, has not a.lwaya enjoyed this viiorens health, and while, chatting recently with .a repreeenta.tive of the Lunen-. burgPres, he said he believed that .but for the timely, use of Dr. ,liame' Wil - Pink Pille would. have been a chrome invalid. "From 1895 to i1898," said Capt. BUMS, "I was the victim of -a: complication of troubles', suppoae they had their -origin in -the hardebip .anct exposure 1 so fre- quently had to undergo.

The fire, driven ,up by a fierce gale from the redstone deserts 01 the north -eat, seemed destined to destroy the town and the People in it, in sPltO of all their labore. Sheep and cattle, maddened by the biting, blinding smoke, rushed ie droves- of hundreds into the heart of the flames and per- ished. After laboring continuously for 30 hours, the exhausted citizens felt the gale die out, and the dIrec- tion of the avind Change, and knew that they were saved, When it was all over, they looked out ever miles of blackened plains, on which,• little mounds of calcined bones were all that was left of thousands of head of live stock. LOSS OF MANY LIVES. In the south -Western part of Smith Australia fires broke out in a region of small 'farms.. Whea the flames had swept over the country it was dot- ted . with blackenea, i•ulias of what, once had been homesteads, and many' farmers and their families were left homeless and penniless. In Victoria the bush fires destroyed not only large areas of grass and thousands of head of live stock, but caused also coneiderable loss of life. In the' Branisholme die tria Six children were caught between two advancing columns of flame and burped to cin- ders. Three farm hands, making a desperate effort to escape, were oVe taken by a rapidly rushing burst of fire; whirled in its embrace, and kil- led, -"Inward of twenty other 'farm hands belonging to the" immediate neighborhood are missing, and there is no hope that they escaped destruc- , tion. At one place in the 'Bratax- aohn district 2,500 sheep were burn- ed together. There were fires in sev- en other, districts, and twenty-six .men are known to have perished in them. It is feared that the total loss in the district will turn, out to be much ' greater. In one district the roaring flames made a gigantic barbecue of 100,000 head of live stock. In two townships, Byaduk and Lower Byaduk ahnost everything was destroyed. The inhabitants, with their clothing on fire,. ran to the creeks and ponds and inimersed themselves in the water, while the names swept over them, a hurricane of fire.' At one station 2,000 sheep were roasted alive, 600 standing huddled together on one spot. Two miles farther on 3,000 sheep were charred to cinders, and in that one district it is estimated that 10,000 sheep perished in the flames. WILD FIGHT FOR LIFE:'' After the fire had swept over ti Dirregurra, district the charred r mains of three little boys wei found near the ruins of their home. They were the sons of a settler who had fled with his family before the fierce advance of -smoke and flame. When the waves of fire and billows of smoke came rolling down upon the settlements, the people fled wild- ly befcre them, members of families getting separated in the mad rush, and calling to each other with agon- ized voices through the obscurity of the flarne-streaked smoke. Parents -were separated from children , an husbands from. wives, in the ma race for life, but 'nearly all finally reached a 'place, of some safety at last. The three little boys whose burned bodies were found near the smouldering embers of their former home had become parted from their .parents; and, beat 'confused, ed, and Choked: by the dense- smoke, had gone ip the wrong, direction, fin- ally falling, exhausted and helpless, to be burned to death on their own playground. In ofie district a railroad train was caught in the flames. There was a roaring furnace sweeping up, frOM behind, and the burning brush before. To go back was certainsde- struction, and to go forwatd was almost as great a risk. The engin- eer crowded on all steam, opened the throttle, and "plunged with all pos- sible speed straight through the burning belt of fire 'ahead. 'Many of the passengers were badly. scorched,, and the cars were blistered- and char- red, but the train came through without the loss of a life. In the • north-western district of Victoria the flames swept over thirty square miles of territory. Trains on the railroad 'had to travel between walls 'of Bre in many places, and there was a large destruction of live stock. In this district many lives were lost --just how many has not yet been reported. In Tasmania miles of country were burned over by the fires, and a great amount of damage done. PERSONAL POINTERS.

Zola., who is sixty-one yearsof age, once had a hard struggle id. exis- tence, For - eighteen months he starved in the streetof Paris, wan- dex•ing about in rags. He never read a newspaper because he could not af- ford to buy one; he never entered a cafe; he never ,sthoked. He speaks of this time as one of the most utter misery, "without money, without work, without position, starving most of the time, and dressed in rags." If ever he had a copper he would spend it on a candle, and with this he would sit through, the night in his garret, reading or writing books. It is different now. Not long ago he refused an offer of 220,-- 000 for three boesks. At a recent meeting of the War- wickshire Reformatory Lord Leigh related a' pathetic story, recording one of the last acts of thoughtful- ness of Queen Victoria a few days before her death. When the Queen was taking a drive, almost' her last, she met a little girl who, having broken her pitcher and spilt her Intik was crying bitterly. The Queen bade tee the child dry her tears and sent the mother a jug of cream. A few days -e later King Edward discovered the little girl endeavoring to pass the sentry at Osborne House, and inquir- ing what she wanted found she had come to thank Her Majesty for ber lsinclness. Itr was the King's painful duty, to inform the little girl his mother had just died. Bishop Baynes, who has returned from. Natal, has followed the fiery track of war on his bicycle, Minister-, ing to the living and perfornung the d last offices for the dead. Though d comparatively young, he has travell- ed in India, Japan, and Africa, and he has -a reputation as a painter and writer. He left Oxford with a bril- liant degree. Here he met Cecil Bhodes, and also Milner, UST whom he was coached during a reading tour in the Highlands. Dr. Baynes is now returning to Nottingham, Eng- land, in which city he was sometime vicar of St. James's. Here, in a 'parish fall of problems of misery and poverty, he inaugurated social reforms until in 1888 he was sum- moned to Canterbury to be, chaplain to Archbishop Benson. Here is a' remarkable story of the King's search for a photograph. Af- ter waiting for twenty years the King has come into possession of a photograph for which he has eought ever since his marriage to Queen Alexandra. It is a photograph of the Queen herself as she was just before the King first met her. It is said that for „some reason only one copy remained undestroyed, and this could not be 'traced until twenty years ago, when it was aecidentally seen by a high personage at Court in an album of a well-known society lady. The latter on being approach- ed was not disposed to part with the prize even to the King, who, when turning over the album- which coatained it from time to time, iteed jokingly to refer to it as ..."my por- trait!' Since he ascended the throne it is understood that the owneh of the photograph has sent it to Wind- sor. _ SPE'CIAL TRAIN TO SAN FRAN- CISCO.

Sing St, East, Toronto, Ont, Dr. Guinness Rogers, the "grand old man" bf London Congregational- ism, ,has more than once been favor- ed by a hearty welcome from the King. On the last occasion that Dr. Rogers had audience of the King, when he formed ono of the Noncon- formist deputation, His Majesty's welcome svas particularly cordial.
