New YORK, Jan. 30.-In the Hospital
for the Runtured and Crippled, two of
the latter, Louise Fablig, aged II, and
Mary Greedy, aged 10, started up stairs
to 90 to bed last night. On reaching the
second floor they were suddenly envei-
oped in clouds OF smoke. Both children
are suffering from spinal disease and eau
walk only with difficulty. Without
screaming or manifesting fright In any
way they hurried as rapidly as possible
to the third floor aud found nurse Ellen
Daugherty, and told her the building
was on fire. The nurse told them not to
tell any of the children, and sent them
to their rooms. She then sent word by
an assistant to Matrou Webber. who in
turn notified DIR. Gibney, from whom an
alarm was sent out as rapidly as possible.
The doctor. nurse, police, as we'll as a
number OF citizens and firemen carried
all the children from the burning build.
ing. When the fire had been extin-
guished the lifeless body of Mary Don
nelly, a cook in the hospital, was found
IN her room on the fifth floor where she
had died from suffocation. Ten-year-old
Mat Schwartz who is suffering from hip
disease, tried to carry out Johnny Burke,
little deaf and dumb cripple, but the
boy was too heavy. She then dragged
him to the hallway where she met a
policeman, who carried both down.
During the fire Michael Mccarthy, the
elevator boy, was overcome by the smoke
and fell into the elevator pit. He was
discovered there by Jessie Stranger, a
young waitress in the hospital, who
dragged him out into the air where he
recovered.

New York Stock Exchange.

NEW YORK, July 3.-Business done at
the stock exchange was in all probability
the SMALLEST in the history of change and
fluctuations were confined to the narrowest
limits ever seen by few stocks showing a
range not more than one-half per cent. The
only important movement was in Rock
Island which under some pressure from
traders retired from 1o2 to 106s5 The gen
eral list, however, displayed firm tone, the
bulls holding the price firm under the i'm
proved outlook of the iron trade, while the
bears were disinclined to increase on the
short line. The closing was steady at little
better than the opening prices
Governments dull and steady.

family physician who attem pied to cure 1t;
but spread with almost incredible rapid
ity, until the lower portion OF the little fell
lows person, from the middle of his back
down to his knees was one solid rash, ugly,
painful, blotched and malicious. We had
no rest at night, no peace BIZ day. Finally,
we were advised TO try the CUTICURA RENE
DIES. The effect was simply marvellous.
In three or four weeks a complete cure was
wrought, leaving the little fellows person
as white and healthy as though he had

valuable remedies saved his life, and to-day
he is strong, healthy child. perfectly well,
no repetition of the disease having ever oc-

Are born into the world every day with
some eczem atous affections, such as milk
crust, scald head, scurf or dandruff. sure to
develop into an agonizing eczema, the
itching, burning and designation of
which make life prolonged torture unless
properly treated.
A warm bath with CUTICURA SOAP, an
exquisite Skin Beautifier, and single ap-
plication of CUTICURA, the Great Skin Cure,
with little CUTICURA REsoLvENT, the New
Blood Purifier. are often sufficient to arrest
the progress of the disease, and point to
speedy and permanent cure.
Hence, no mother who loves her children,
who takes pride in their beauty, purity and
health, and in bestowing upon them a
child's greatest inheritance-a skin without
blood-should fail to make trial of the
CUTICURA REMEDIES.

A Magic Husband.

Ii magicians could perform i'll real
life the feats that they seem to per-
form oil the stage. they would never
need, when married, to live on "bread
and cheese and kisses" The ccle-
brated magician, H, for instance,
recently took to himself n wife, and
she doesn't have to get up very early to
go to market.
When she wants a dozen eggs she
simply hands her husband the empty
egg-basket, and lie produces them by
sleight-of-hand; then he cooks IN
omelet in a borrowed hut, and converts
a can of sawdust into that much white
sugar, and a similar cup filled with
chopped paper changes into hot coffee;
then lie takes the same hat, stirs up its
emptiness with a magic wand, and,
presto, change! out come a loaf of
bread, IL fresh herring, two pickles, one
pie, a scuttle of coal, o dish of hash
with natural hairs in it, and IL dozen
knives and forks. This ismnch cheaper
than going to market. But Mrs. H
is not happy. When her husband
wants a sovereign he mystcriously
picks it off the end of his wife's nose.
And she is dissatisfied because she
can't perform that trick herself.

The Marshalltown Tines Republican
says: Two soldiers we're standing in front
of Dietrich's cigar store ON East Main
street Saturday afternoon. Both were
cripples. One was compelled to use two
canes to help him in walking and the other
walked with only one. A tall heavy set
man who stood near looked them over
contemptuosly and then, without provoca-
ton spoke Of them as Odd paupers. :"
This was too much for the man who still
had one good leg and ne went for him on
the instant, breaking his ZANE over the big
Grover Cleveland loafer and then, taking
his fist, knocked him into the street.
Everybody near cheered the aged soldier
and MIR. Tom Fletcher stepped across the
street and asked the veteran what he struck
the man for. I'm pretty old and not
very strong, but there can't any man in
this town call me a pauper without fight
ing" The other veteran leaned on histwo
canes and smiled. saying: Il thought for a
moment That I'd have to go in and help"
At the Soldiers Home yesterday a visitor
asked about the affair, and one of the Off
GERS said: The Mayor was out here after
that old soldier" Whit is ho going to do
with him." Give him IL gold headed cane
in place of the one he broke" Probably
the man who spoke to the old soldier was
himself almost as great a beggar as he Is Il
coward. The bystandcrs were unable TO
give his name.

How Iowa Was Admitted.

Gen. Geo. w. Jones, one of the pioneers
of the west, WAS the first United States
senator for Iowa, and he was once United
States surveyor Of the whole region from
Wisconsin to the Pacific. He was also a
United States senator from Wisconsin,
and he frequently alludes to the way in
which he secured the admission of Town
to the union. When the question came
up i n the senate, the vote was likely to be
IL tie, and the hope of Iowa was in getting
some one of the opposition to be absent
when the vote was taken. He tried to get
Calhoun, who was Of the opposition. to
vote for the admission, but failed. Then
he went to Calhoun's beautiful daughter
(for the old general was a great beat in his
day. and enlisted her services. She tried
to win her father over but could not.
Then he asked her to keep her father
away when the vote was taken, and one
night going home from q party, he told
her that the question would come up the
next day and to be ready. She agreed,
and next day. just before it wa reached
the vote was taken in his absence, and the
friends of admission won by just one ma
jority. Thus it was that Iowa came INTO
the union, aud a young lady is deserving
of much credit. Gen. Jones is a very M
teresting character, o over 10 years old.
He took part as q second in the Graves
Cilley duel. and he has been one of the
conspicuous figures in Iowa for half q CEN
tury.

Health and Work.

There are many persons in the world
whose only capital is health. They are
engaged in work of various kinds, and
SO long as health lasts they earn a good
living. They must learn how to avoid
illness by living in the right way.
There are others who have lived wrong
ly i'll their youth, but have found out
their errors in time to have a fairly
good constitution left. These may live
to a ripe old age, BEAUTIFULLY, if they
only take care. There are still others
with everything that riches can give;
these must learn to live rightly, too, if
they want to be we'll. Plain food, exer-
else, ETC., will enable these to live long,
as they are not troubled by necessity Of
work, s o that they may live. Wealth
comes not from our income, but from
the amount we save of it; SO health
comes not from the amount we have to
go on with, but from the amount we
save, by not spending it on trifes which
waste our strength and give us no re-
turn.-Dr. Allison.

Rrostrated by Inhslinr Coal Gas,

Rrostrated by InhalinE o Gas.
One morning last week Drs. Stone and
Bush, Of Wahoo, were summoned to Wes-
ton. to attend DIR. Smith and wife and a
little neighbor girl, all of whom were
a~sphyxiated by coal gas. The circum-
stances Of the case were very peculiar. DIR.
Smith, on arising in tho morning, had
built a fire in the heating stove Of fine
slack coal and closed the damper in the
pipe. They had eaten breakfast and the
doctor had been out and made q profess
sional call. On returning home, just as
he enteredthe house, his wife, who was in
the kitchen, dropped apparently lifeless
upon the floor. He rushed to her, raised
her up and placed her upon the bed, when
he himself became insensible and
also fell upon the floor. just then
a neighbour lady and little daugh-
ter came over, and on enter
ing the house the little girl was overcome
by the deadly gas. and fell down uncon-
scious. The mother, following an instant
later. wa Mortified md rushed out for as
sistance. The doors of the house were
thrown open and the room soon became
cleared of the gas. 1t was with the great
est difficulty that the doctors succeeded in
