THE NIGHT OF FIRE.

aIt.is getting along near tho anniversary
I Of tie big fire." said an old detective a
Chicago reporter not long ago. perhaps
you'd like to hear q story Of that fire that has
never been printed"
The reporter wheeled his chair around
nearer the CRATE where a piece of coal was
blazing pleasantly and expressed a willingness

Of; It's q good while since then and no harm
will be done. I came into possession Of the
facts some time ago and they're straight. A
fsw days before the fire a young mai who
was employed in q wholesale house OF that
DAY was found to be an embezzler. His en-
[ployers were at work on the case when the
fire came and swept everything away. up
to that time they had not fully decided what
course they would purst1e. The cashier, whom
I will call Everett, was an agreeable fellow.
He had wealthy relatives here and in New
York, and his wife was one Of the handsomest
women l ever saw. In fact, it was supposed
that it was on her account that Everett had
got into trouble. She was fond of dress n
it was no secret that her desire to shine in
society had led him into expenditures that
were beyond his means. The possibility hat
the defaulter's relatives would help him and
the honest desire of one of his employers to
save him from disgrace both contributed to
the delay which occurred in his prosecution.
ION the Saturday night before the big fire
a long consultation was held at the store be-
tween the defaulter, one or two of his friends
and two of the partners. At this conference
no arrangement was reached and Il 9 was
an intimation that if something was not done
by Everett's friends by Monday morning the
law would have to take its course. 1t was
late when the meeting broke up and the
heavens were bright with the reflection from
the first fire when the men came out on the
street. Everett did not 60 home directly. He
first crossed the river, took a look at the fire
a few minutes and then proceeded to the resi-,
dence of a friend in the neighborhood OF
Center avenue. When be recrossed the river
and pursued his way toward his own home on
the north side it was long past midnight.
"That Sunday he remained at home for the
greater part of the day, but toward evening
he again proceeded to the west side, had a
long consultation with his friend Inc at 10
started for home. A new fire had
broken out and as he reached the river he
could see from the bridge at Madison street
that it was as threatening q conflagration as
the one that had preceded it. Perplexed over
his own great trouble and believing that
could now save him from disgrace
and punishment, Everett walked leisurely to-
ward the burning district end when near

The country is flooded with bogus medi.

is all they have to sustain their prestige.
Numerous cleverly concOcted certificates

poor victim of blood poison or other disease,
when to our knowledge the identical persons
lay groaning in agony while the public were
reading of their remarkable recovery.
Another serious offense is the publication
of erroneous statements concerning various
drugs, such as are daily prescribed by our
best physicians, declaring them to be deadly
poisons. Iodide of potash, which seems to
receive their greatest condemnation, when
prescribed by physicians and in the proper
combination with. certain compounds, is not
only harmless, but forms one of the most
powerful antagonists to blood poison known
