AUTUMNAL ADVICE.

Keep your feet warm and dry.
Wear waterproof boots in preference to
arctics or rubbers.
Keep your eye on your umbrella, you will
need it yourself.
Stop cough or a cold a. once. Pneumonia
and consumption may be started by either.
If you wear rubbers take them OFF whenever
you have the chance, even if only for few
minutes.
Ii you feel cough or a cold coming on take
drink of pure whiskey at once. 1t will keep
the blood in circulation and is the best pre-
ventlve against the diseases of the season.
Remember that only pure whiskey should be
taken. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has the
strongest recommendations from the leading
scientists and medical men in the country, and
the only standard medicinal whiskey known.
Insist on having it. seA-w

Reports of Their nl-Treatment by the Au-
thorities Greatly Exaggerated.
DENVER, COL, October 21.-Colonel A.
j. Sampson, who for the past two years has
been United States Consul at Paso del Norte,
is in Denver on business matters. Colonel
Samnson was asked regarding the numerous
complaints which have been sent out rela-
tive to the alleged ill-treatment of Ameri-
cans arrested in Paso del Norte, and said:
81 have this to say-arrests have been wildly
exaggerated. II an American disobeys the
law in Mexico he is arrested, just the same
as Mexican would be in the United States.
Mexican laws differ from those of our
country. IF an American cannot abide by
their laws he should not reman there. The
officers are supposed to uphold the law, and
so far as / can see, they do so.
Americans are given as: speedy a trial as
possible, in fact, think there is some dis
elimination in their favor"

Princeton's Prospects.

PRINCETON, October 2l-Princeton's hopes
for again winning the football championship
were almost extinguished to-day. In the prac-
tlce games to-day Captain Poe. who constitutes
the life and brains of the Princeton team, had
his knee badly wrenched. Poe tackled Davis.
who was running with the ball, and in the fall
the accident occurred. After lying for some
time. apparently suffering great pain he was
taken off the field in the arms of Jesse Riggs,
Galloway and Lewis Dr. Mcdonald was
called into the club house, and there attended
may be well in two weeks. The wrench to-day
is the result of a similar accident received
while playing lacrosse last fall, and it is seri-
ously feared that Poe will be of little use on
the field this year. The Princeton freshmen
downed the Princeton ''preps' to-day in a
game of football The latter, after their great
victory over the Rutgers freshmen. expected
to win to-day's game. But the freshmen's line
and backs were tco powerful. The score was,

WASHINGTON, October 21.-''Things are

Cyrus Bussey, Assistant Secretary of the
Interior Department, this afternoon. ''They

Michigan Trainmen Make a Simultaneous
Request for Higher Wages.
DETROIT, October 21.-The matter of
wages for passenger trainmen on the Michi-
gan Central has not yet been decided. The
request for advanced pay on the part of the
trainmen is not confined to the
Michigan Central. A similar demand has
been made by the Lake Shore men and by
those on nearly all other trunk lines, and
it is possible that the managers of the sys-
TENS affected may have conference before
the final settlement.
Although the request for more pay is made
simultaneously ON all lines it has none of the
features of a strike. The men argue we'll
for the advance, but make no threats and
fix no special day on which their request
must be granted. The men are we'll organ

A MIDNIGHT BLAZE.
The Dayis-Chambers Lead Works Are
Very Badly Damaged.
MISTAKE In GIVING THE ALARM
Two Men Meet With Severe Injuries Dur
ing the Confusion.
THE LOSS is ESTIMATED AT $40, 1000

Just before midnight fire broke out in
the works of the Davis-Chambers Lead
Company, corner of Fortv-ffth and Rail-
road streets, which resulted in almost
the total destruction of the entire estab-
lishment. The fire originated in the
dry house, a small frame building adjoining
the works proper. In short time the en-
tire building was in flames. The watchman
turned in an alarm from box Is, and by so
doing Is minutes time was lost. Box:74 is
within square of the fire and box IS is
nearly four squares away.
ANOTHER DISTRICT CALLED.
A second district had to be called out in
order to get the fire under control. The
building was a tbree-story brick filled with
white lead, and as one floor alter the other
became enveloped in the flames the latter
leaped forth mingled with dense vol
umes Of smoke that filled the air
high about the burning buildings. In an
hour there was nothing lett of the building
but the first floor and the walls.
The loss, as near as could be estimated BY
Chief Coates, will be from $4,000 to S20,-
900. None of the members OF the firm were
about, but the watchman said he was con-
uueuI Lne pldce was IullV Insured.
There were two men injured during the
fire. James Ellis. driver of engine No. 6,
jumped from ladder and was severely
bruised and cut about the head. He was
up as high as the third floor when the rool
went down.
A CRY OF FALLING WALLS.
Someone cried out that the walls were
falling, too, and he jumped to save himself.
Joseph Valian, watchman. was helping to
run line up through the building when
piece of timber fell down from one of the
upper stories, striking him on the head.
Both men were removed to the Seventeenth
ward station house.
In regard to the origin of the fire the
watchman said he thought the fire had been
allowed to burn too high under the boilers
in the dryhouse and they swept to the ad-
joining building, which was filled with
burnt lead and other infammable material,
before the three watchmen could do any
thing with it.
Chief Coates said this makes the third
time the same building has been burned.

The Demand for Small Houses Continues to
Increase Daily.
Alderman G. E. Succop, whose real estate
business, in connection with his Official duties
is of pretty large dimensions. has become in
terested in the agitation inaugurated by The
DISPATCH for more small houses for working
people. He said last night:
II suppose l have had more applications
within the last two or three weeks for three or
four-roomed houses than 1 ever had before.
There seems to be general demand for them.
/ cannot begin to serve all who want small
houses. Some people think relief will soon
come because Mr.. Mckee has moved his glass
works away, and one or two others say
they intend. doing so soon. But l don't
believe the people who went to Jeanette made
any difference in the population. l think their
three more glass factories were to move. TAX
ing their whole forces with them, it would not
be long until matters would be as bad as ever"
