THE ROCHESTER HOLOCAUST.

The Total Number of Deaths Reaches
Thirty-Thrss-Cause of the Fire.
ROCHESTER, N. Y, Nov l2-About q
o'clock Saturday morning the firemen who
had been searching for bodies In the ruins of
the Rochester Steam Gauge and Lantern
works, came upon the charred remains Of
three of the unfortunate men who had per-
ished in the flames They were evidently
bodies of those who had been upon the upper
floor. One body was recovered intact, but
was charred beyond recognition. Another
resembled human being only in that the
head ami trunk of the body remained, the
arms and legs having been completely de-
stroyed Only the charred bones Of the
third man could be found. The identi6ca-
ton of these bodies was an utter impossi-
bilty.
At the hospital Saturday no new deaths
occurred. Frank Siddons is very low and
may not recover. G. c. Glazier, a foreman,
thinks there were seventy five men working
in the building. Two or three dropped from
a fire escape into chute and were shot into
the basement OF the burning buildino

What joy may come to married pair,
even with the first daw1ling of a new life, il
only their hearts are attuued to mutual in
terest, mutual affection, mutual aspiration
The orange blossom is made the symbol of
married love for no other reason that know
Of but because it puts forth its stainless pet
ais anew for each new fruit. So in married
life the setting of each new germ should be
attended with a new Towering of the first
love - the love Of youth "a little
of the old love" was the message with
which a husband | once knew always
closed his letters to his wife A little
of that same old love made new and
fresh for the occasion ought to accompany
the wife through every stage of each mater
nal experience. The thoughtful attentions
the tender endearments of the wooing time
should be renewed, and they will have q
deeper meaning and serve grander purpose
than was possible to them before, for loving
children are not born into unloving homes
The wife, too, who is thus ter 3erly cared fol
will keep her pristine charms of SOUL if no
of body Her youthfulness will be renewed
by perpetual miracle, for that dear "olC
love" is the true and only fountain of per
petual youth, and it is the privilege of mar
ried lovers to battle in it at will.-Caroline F
Corbin in Chicago Tribune,
