Sad Affair in Bridgeport-A Lamp
Exploded
BRIDGEPORT, March 2S.-John Koch with
his wife and two children occupied apart
ments over store in Heating Bros block
at the corner of Reilly and Pembroke
streets. Last night about $50 as he was
preparing to retire the lamp exploded and
in his anxiety to save his wife and children
the flames caught his clothes. An alarm
of fire was sent in and several men rushed
in and took Koch and his family out.
Koch was most horribly burned. The
ambulance was summoned and the emer-
gency corps did all in their power to quiet
the unfortunate man, who was almost
frantic with pain. He was taken to the
hospital and the house staff did all in their
power to save his life, but it was useless,
aud he died early this morning suffering
great pain. The flesh on his limbs was
most horribly burned and presented sick
ening sight. Koch was a Slavonic and
was well liked by all who knew him. He
leaves wife and two children unprovided
for. His wife is heartbroken at her hus-
bands sad death. Koch was about thirty
years of age and was employed by the
Swords Lumber company. The damage
to the building will not exceed 5000 at the

Nothing demands more serious attention
than the weakness and tired feelings SO
common in the spring months. And this
10 especially true this year, following the

This cry of "spring medicine" 'blood
purifiers" "nerve tonics," etc., represents
an actual need of the people. 49,.

its resulting changes in clothing, diet and

have been many different prescriptions fol
this common and often dangerous condi-
ton, but the brightest men in the medical
profession unite in prescribing Paine'e
celery compound, exhaustive trials having
shown it to be always the samoa pure,
healthful medicine that strengthens the
nerves, puri6es and enriches the blood and
regenerates the whole physical system.
This compound should not be COMPOUNDED
with the ordinary "spring medicine" 1t
is the discovery of no less man than the
eminent Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LII. D.,
of Dartmouth college.
1t has cured some of the most prominent
men and women of the land, several Of
whom have acknowledged through the
press the great benefit they derived from

Physicians use it and prescribe it.
Reputable druggists endorse it, for itt

they are certain that this compound con
tains only that which is pure and strength

it keeps perfectly, tho last drop in The
sixth bottle being as full of curative power
as the first dose they take.
Many wonderful cures are recorded fol
Paine's celery compound, where everything
else failed. Scrofula, rheumatism and al
other blood diseases yield to it's health re-
storing qualities. Sleeplessness, nervous
ness and debility are banished by this
food for nerves and brain. If it cures suct
dread diseases does it not stand to reason
that it will quickly conquer the lesser all

he might come here, having many friends
IN this vicinity, as his wife had lived for
years in disreputable resort here. The

day, when Officer Finn accosted and arrest
