No Claims Will Stand Before
The Public Unless Backed
BY 1t.

DR.. Holland desires to express his thanks
to the public for the cordial response they
have made to his printed statements since
he came to Burlington some four weeks ago.
But to know that the dignity, honesty and
sincerity Of his methods has been appre
ciated by the pu bile and that they have
been able to realize from practical observa-
ton that his claims have been more than
real zed has given him more and greater
satisfaction. 1t is with an abiding con-
fidence in the intelligence of the people that
he makes his claims to SUI erior skill as a
specialist. The record Of his training the
years represented in his practice, the record
Of hi. success in individual cases in this
community as they appear from time to
time in the columns of the daily papers are
all open for inspection, challenge or investt-

BY FIRE AND BY FLOOD.
4 Terrible Disaster at OH City an
TitusViIIe, Pa.

A Terrible Disaster at OH City and
Titusviile, Pa.
PIrTsBURG, Pa, June 5.-The cities of
Titusville AMI Oil City have been
visited durlng the past twenty four
hours with the most disastrous floods
and ire ever known in the history
of the oil region. Oil Creek has
overiioWed its banks, at Titusyille, from
the west end, above the water and gas
works, TO the city below, and for hours
assumed the proportions of an
almost resistless flood, reaching
almost up to the line of Spring Street.
Oil retineries are swept away, and the
oil catching fire was borne rapidly along
by the raging waters, spreading death
and disaster on all sides. Tonight it is
believed the loss of life at Titusyille
alone may reach 100, and possibly more.
Fifteen dead bodies have already been
recovered.
The waters came up suddenly from
Oil Creek and Hooded the whole fiat as
far as Spring Street, forming lake
nearly mile in width and about two
thirds of mile in length. \ short
time later the Acme Oil refinery was
struck by lightning, and fire added ter
ror TO the scene. The flames spread
rapidly, and soon the five blocks
from Perry to Drake streets, in
Guiding Washington, Franklin and Mate
streets, and from the Western New
York x Pennsylvania Railway to Spring
Street, were laid in waste. A half
dozen of the largest refneries, among
them Rice 4 Robinson's, Schwartz s
and the Acme, were burned. The only
buildings now said to be standing in the
district are the Titusvile Iron Works
and the depot of the Western New
York x Pennsylvania road. The water
began to recede about noon, and is now
going down rapidly.
The disaster is only surpassed by the
Johnstown flood. 1t is impossible at
this hour, midnight, to give anything
| like an accurate idea Of the loss of life
| and property, as chaos reigns through
| out the devasted regions and a terrible
contlagratlon RACES in Oil City. 1t is
| safe to say that not less than 80 lives
| have been lost. Nearly 100 bodies have
| been recovered. and many people are
| still missing. The number may far eN-
| ceed l5o, but this is regarded as con-
| servatire statement. The property loss
will reach far into the millions. AT
| Titusvilie the loss is estimated at 81 300,
600; Oil City, 81 800, 900; Cory, $4,000;
| Meadville, Slo0,0O0, and surrounding
country probably 81 ,o0u. 900 more.

JIMTOWN IS NO MORE.
The BustiinG Colorado Mining Camp
Wiped Out by Fire.

"lPeu Out Dy Elrfs
DENVER, Col, June 5.-The bustling
camp of jim own, which is mile and
a half from the famous mining town of
Creede. was almost totally destroyed by
lire which started at $50 this morning.
The flames were started by an eX-
plosion of coal oil. with which family,
living in the kinneavey block, were
starting fire to prepare breakfast.
As there is no fire department, the
flames had it all their own way and IN
short time they burned through
the rows of frame buildings for
a distance of a mile in the mar
row gulch in which the town is stu
ated. Many houses were blown up
with giant powder in an attempt 10 stop
the fire, but this had no effect, for the
flames jumped from one vacant place to
another and only stopped for want OF
material Little if any of the contents OF
the houses were saved, ana there are
hundreds of families homeless, but
they will be provided for 10y the peo-
Pile of Crede. While the fire was
in progress, the numerous saloons
were thrown open to the crowd, ana
huuor was free to all who might desire
il. The result was that many drunken
men were on the streets, but they did
no damage. One hundred deputy
sheritTs were sworn in, and they will
nrotect the town against attempts at
thieying by persons who on occasions
of this kind take advantage OF the great
distress.
The total loss is estimated at 81 900,
O0o. The heavlst losses are Alexander
Hotter K Co., saloon, building and
stock, so, 900; Shackelford K Foster,
Albany Hotel Block, 5000; Sinner X

Company. $4,000; WilIoushby i Col

prominent loses, but there are hun
dreds of others which are smaller and
