BURNED 70 DEATH
A Man and Woman Perish in Rocheste
Fire.

A Man and Woman Perish in . Rochester
Fire.
RocHEsrER, N. Y, May 5.-while Ed
ward P. Schafer was returning to his
home at a quarter to three o'clock in the
morning he discovered flames issuin9
from the two-story frame building at No.
las Nassau street, occupied by Nellie
Rosenbloom
The flames had enveloped the entire in
terror of the building before it was dis
covered.
An alarm was sent in, and almost
at the same instant Mrs. Muntski
and her son, who lived in the rear part of
the upper story of the building, were
awakened by the dense smoke, and al
though rendered almost unconscious,
succeeded in making their way from the
burning building to the street clad, only
in their night clothes.
The front part of the upper story was
occupied by Herman Ulrich and his wife.
The first floor was occupied by Mrs.
Rosenbloom's confectionery store It was
supposed that all the inmates of the
building had escaped in safety.
Within few moments after. the alarm
was sent in the department responded.
When the firemen had subdued the
flames enough so as to be able to enter
the upper part of the building by means
of ladders they found the bodies Of q man
and woman lying near together on the
floor.
From neighbors the name of the man
was said to be Herman Stephanski, but
the name of the woman could not be as
certained, though it is supposed that she
was his wife. The two were in the habit
of drinking, and they may have been
under the influence of liquor at the time
of the fire. They had evidently realized
the danger of their situation and tried to
escape, but their egress was cut offsby the
stairway being in flames and for some
unknown reason they did not succeed in
raising the only window in the room.
When their bodies were found they were
burned beyond recognition.

HORRIBLE SCENES IN CHILL.
Women Seized In the Streets and Subject
ed to the viIest Outrages.

Women Seized in the Streets and Subject
ed to the viIest Outrages.
LONDON, May 5.-Buenos Ayres ad-
vices represent the condition of affairs in
Chilli as most wretched. Horrible scenes
are to be witnessed everywhere, owing to
the scarcity of food, consequent upon the
neglect of agriculture and the general
devastation caused by war.
In Santiago the greatest outrages are
reported, no mercy being shown by Bal
maceda's agents to any of those suspect
ed of opposing him. Women of the high
est families have been seized in the
streets, thrown into prison and subjected
to vile outrages. The British fleet, COM
manded by Admiral Hotham, has done
everything possible to alleviate the hor-
rors of the struggle, affording a refuge to
non -combatants without regard to their
party affiliations.
In Valparaiso bread has reached three
times the usual price, and multitudes of
unemployed workingmen wander mem
acingly through the streets. Continual
arrests are being made of persons
and their doom is at once decided, with
to an order from President Balmaceda.
Numbers have been shot simply on the
Presidents order, based on a brief tele-
graphic report of the charges against
them.
The insurgents are gradually gaining
ground, and the loss of the Blanco Enca-
lada only inspired them with new deter
.1ination. They now hold the northern
province as solidly as Balmaceda holds
the middle and southern territories of
the Republic.

Rapidity of movement is apt to be &C
companied by a sacrifice Of dignity, es-
pecially If You happen to have vicious
dog at your heels. It wcnld be stretching
point to say that our spring suits have
any dignity because the term is not usually
applied to inanimate objects, but if they
have ne dignity of their own they at least
impart dignity to the wearer who in return
may be said to invest then with a sort of
personal animation, If there is anything
in this life that is positively depressing,
1t is the unfortunate who is condemned to
wear an unbecoming suit of clothes. He
may try to appear unconscious of the atteA-
tion he attracts, but he is victim of in
ward embarrassment, even though he
gives no outward evidence oft. You will
have no cause for embarrassment If You
buy your clothing at our store, without
stretching it particle. We can say that
we show the nobbiest and best fitting line
of Suits, Spring Overcoats and Pants to
be found in this city.

ONE of the stories they tell of "Old
Hutch" to illustrate his sagacity in dis
covering pecuniary opportunities is
this: He noticed the windows of a big
carpet store decorated with placards
stating that prices were reduced, as the
whole stock of the concern was. to be
closed out. Struck with a sudden idea
he went in, asked the price of several
lines of goods, the quantities in stock
and the original prices. Having indeed
gone practically through the place he
sent for the heads of the firm and cody
made them a lump sum offer for the
whole stock, good will and fixtures of
the concern. The bill was accepted, and
"Old Hutch" at once gave his check.
Then, without leaving the place, he sent
for relative, who, by the way, was in
another line of trade, and informed him
that he wanted him to take charge of
his new acquisition and run it, adding:
AT the prices paid there is money in
it." Events proved the correctness of
his Judgment, and the business so sum-
marily purchased is still in successful
operation"

The oldest freak in the way of a
rumor that has turned up for some time
was the one that was Matched out, APP
parently from nowhere, Saturday after
noon, to the effect that Mr. Harrison had
somewhere, at some time, intimated to
somebody that he did not think that the
bench ought to be constructed on pro-
nounced political basis, and that he pro-
posed appointing three or four demo-
crata when the nine new United States
circuit court judges were named.
That's very rich. When Mr. Harrison
dominates a democrat to a judgeship the
millennium will certainly have arrived,
and as far as the strongest glass can see
there are no signs of it yet.
