A BOYS EsTIM ATE This MOTHERS
WORK.

My mother gets me up, builds the
fire, and gets my breakfast, and sends
me off, said a bright youth. "Then she
gets my father up and gets his breakfast
and sends him off. Then she gives the
other children their breakfast, and sends
them to school; and then she and the
baby have their breakfast"
'How old is the baby ?" asked the re-
porter
"Oh, she is most two, but she can
talk and walk as well as any of u.s."
Are you well paid ?''
u get two dollars week, and father
gets two dollars day"
"How much does your mother get ?'
With a bewildering look the boy
said. Mother, why she don't work for
anybody"

all of you"
"Oh, yes, for us, she does; but there
amt no money into little House

Good Looks

Good looks are more than skin deep,
depending upon healthy condition of
all the vital organs. If the liver be in
active, you have a bilious look, if your
stomach be disordered you have a dys-
peptic look and if your kidneys be af-
fected you have pinched look. Secure
good health and you will have good
looks. Electric Bitters is the great al
terative and tonic, acts directly on these
vital organs. Cures pimples, blotches,
boils, and gives a good complexion.

NEW York, Jan. Oh Shortly before
noon, at tho time when upper Broadway
was crowded with shoppers and with
business men going to luncheon, fire
broke out in the basement of the huge
five-story building running from Nos. 5
to 9 Union square. Before the firemen
arrived--in fact before the alarm had
been turned in-the fire had extended all
through the three cellars, and smoke was
pouring out OF every window. The build
ing is situated in the heart of the fash
ionable shopping district Of the city.
On the left is Tiffanys jewelry
house and on the east side is the hand
some Lincoln offices. The lower floor Of
No. S, Union square, is occupied by
Brentanos, importers OF books and fancy
goods. The fire seems to have started
in the basement of SCHNEIDER & Camp
bells store. The building that was
burned extended around Tiifany's store
into Fifteenth street with u narrow l..

CHICAGO, Jan. 2l. More closely even

total destruction Of Chicago by fire was
imminent today for hours. Singularly,
the menace was the absolute PARALYSIS of
the citys water supply, but the danger
was met and conquered through the fire
department. Over a million people went
unwashcd, and hundreds Of huge indus

bTeweries, oddly enough, were among the
chief sufferers. but the barrooms did an
enormous traffic Ordinary commerce
was disa-trously hampercd, and domestic
operations in the thousands Of homes

practically impossible. Elevators in
the auditorium and other record break

lower degree were motionless and the
luckiess upper story tenants toiled pain
fully skyward by the stairs. Two miles
east from the shore out IN lake Michigan
the city's water supply cribs had all three

OF double relays of workmen been
frozen solid in ice. The tunnels connect
ing each crib with the big pumping sta

ing choked at the mouth with ice OF the
tlinty pattern, technically known as the
"uncher' article. The city officials tore
frantically about devsing schemes OF re-

in the wells at the pumping works,
receded and one after another the massive

COLUMBUS DAY.

What Ex-President Cleveland Thinks
of the Plan to Make the Public
Schools the Centre of Celebrations
Of the Occasion.
New York, May 5-The World this
morning printed the following interview
with eX President Cleveland, relative to
the national public school celebration
Of Columbus Day. Oct. IL:
" 1t is a grand l.i;.A Il is admirably
conceived and very timely. I've always
been friend Of tic public schools |
believe they are the greatest feature of
American life. They cannot be put for
ward too much. think this movement
to make the school system the centre of
all the local celebrations of Discovery
Day ought to be pushed pretty vigo-
rOusly Just now; there is not much time
to LOSE
He thought there might possibly be
some difficulty in getting some of the
municipalities To make the public
schools the dominant feature OF the
civic celebration of the day.
" But they ought to- he added. 1.-The
public school il the greatest thing they
have got and TO make a chain Of local
celebrations all connected by the
schools is noble plan. New York City,
the metropolis Of the country, should
take the load III this by making the
schools a feature Of the celebration
here. The Board of Education should
see to this. Get New York to adopt
the plan and YOU get the rcSt.n

The unexpected opposition 10 Mr..
Clegeland in the late South Carolina
convention puts a new phase on his
candidacy, but one which might natu-
rally have been looked for by close
observer OF the drift Of public opinion.
1t means simply that he is not accep-
table to the farmers Of the South, if
that sentiment finds expression 10 the
alliance organization. The same ohjec-
ton makes him equally unacceptable
to the farmers of the West. Diplomatic
cally speaking, he is persona non grota
to both parties on account of his anti
silver views, for it is plain that this is
sue can not be suppressed at the bidding
of politicians, who simply want it out of
the way because it interferes with their
plans, Mr.. Cleveland's candidacy would
therefore give powerful impulse to the
third party movement, drawing it's main
strength from the democracy in States
where division of the vote might be
disastrous. The South Carolina oppo-
stiOD to Cleveland is not mere Incl
dent to the campaign, but the well-de-
fined symptom OF a general revanlt that
is ready to break out all along the alli-
ance line. wherever there are spirits
bold enough to lead the way.-B. R. Adj

Negroes have returned from Oklaho-

sutferings of their people, who t1ocked

under the guidance Of scheming boom
ers. They say that there are at least
600 negro families absolutely without
food or the means to get it. They have
been aided by their more fortunate
brethren so far as their means would
permit, but even this precarious hope
has now given out. The late rains have
flooded the country and hundreds of
people are said to be sick from expo

been appealed to, and help will be sent
to the stricken district west of King

that they arc better at home in the
