Cuicaco, May 13—4 p. m.—The Journal's New York special says: A terrible forest fire is raging tn a scc- tion of Berks county, known as “The Forest,” one of the wildest regions in eastern Pennsylvania. *“The Foreat” covers an area of fifty square miles, and unless thero Is rain very soon the destruction to property will be very great. Thers has been a drought hero for nearly threo weeks and the dryness of the timber, to- gother with the wind at the rate of 60 miles per hour, cause the flames to spread rapidly. The section being dovastated is remote from railroads, Reading being the nearest railroad point and telograph station. Al- though known as ‘‘the forest,” it 1s broken by occasional small valleys containing comparatively fortile farms, with fine buildings, occupied mostly by market gardencrs. Should any of these valleys be crossed by the flames there may be loss of life in addition to the destruction of property, The fire has also broken out on Mount Pera, the eastern border of Reading. Severe forest fires are reported on the Blue Mountaine, twenty miles north of Readlng. The cosst line in New Jer- soy [from Squam to Toms river is & ‘mass of fiame. Fires.

Hummell and Honty F. Wise, the three remaining murderers of oid Joseph Raber, was witnessed by about fifty persons, who Woro admitéed to the jail-yard, while on the outside of the jail hundreds ere congregated, who seemed to find. dolight in gazing at the bare walls. The condemned men were busy till farin thenight prepsring for the final act—singing and praying in their cells. Brandt, who heretofore had not been 2 member of any church, joined the Lathorsn denomnation, holy com- muvion being administered to him | and Hommell.
