Having passed several nights dis.
turbed by the agonies and cries of snt-
fering child, and becoming convinced
that Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup
was lust the article needed, procured n
supply for the child. On reaching home
and acquainting his wife with what he
had done, she refused to have it admins
tered to the child, as she was strongly in
favor of homeopathy. That night the
child passed in suffering, and the parents
without sleep. Returning home the day
following the father found the baby still
worse, and while contemplating another
sleepless night. the mother stepped from
the room to attend to some domestic du-
ties. and left the father with tho child.
During her absence he administered a
norton of the Soothing Syrup to the
baby, and said nothing. That night all
hands slept well, and the little fellow
awoke in the morning bright and happy.
The mother was delighted with the sud
den and wonderful change, and although
at first offended at the deception prac-
ticed upon her, has continued to use the
syrup, and suffering, crying babies and
restless nights have disappeared. A
single trial of the syrup never yet failed
to relieve tho baby and overcome the
prejudice of the mother. Sold by all
druggists. Is cents bottle.

New Jersey Capitol Building Burns

TRENTON, n. j., March 2l.--A large
portion of the capitol building burned
early this morning. The flames were
extinguishel after four hours fight.
The loss will be enormous. The chan
Gerry office, containing all the records
of the courts OF the state, deeds, etc,
was destroyed.
Five explosions were heard in the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. office, on the
first floor, at the northwest corner of the
state house this morning. The eXplo-
sions were followed by flames that shot
through the windows. In ten minutes
the apartments were in ruins. The
flames followed the steam pipes to the
floor above and set fire to the office ofthe
clerk in chancery. From these the con
tlagration extended to the geological
museum, on the third floor. In this
were many valuable state relics, but the
III st valuable had been sent to the New
Orleans exposition month ago. The
battle flags were rescued by the firemen
at the risk of their lives, but the sword
and saddle OF Gen. Phil. Kearney were
destroyed. The fire then moved back
toward the dome and 1t looked as
if the supreme court room, the chancery
court room, and the legislative cham
bers would have to go. The books and
documents were removed nastlly from
the offices of the comptroller, the state
treasurer and the secretary OF state.
The fire was checked at 7 o'clock, al
though the engines are still playing on
the ruins in order that access may be
had to the chancery vaults, where ex-
ceedingly valuable papers relating to
thousands of estates, are kept. The
vaults are not burned, but are believed
to be iull of water, which will cause al
most as much damage as fire. The loss
will not fall below 100000. The part
destroyed is in the facade # the origi-
nal state-house, built in 1875. Only the
museum, the quartermaster-generars
office and the chancery office were COM
pletely destroyed, The other, depart
ments were somewhat damaged by wa
ter. The chancery and supreme court
rooms, and the senate and assembly
chambe remain intact. The entire
building was worth 100000. There is
| liberal insurance on the structure.
The explosions in the quartermaster's
room are thought to have been caused
by confined 5, which was in some
way ignIted.
