KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and tends to personal enjoyment when rightly used. The many, who live bet ter than others and enjoy life more, with less expenditure, by more promptly adapting the worlds best products to the needs of physical being, will attest the value to health of the pure liquid laxative principles embraced in the remedy, Syrup of Figs.
 Its excellence is due to its presenting in the form most acceptable and pleas ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly beneficial properties of a perfect lax ative; effectually cleansing the system, dispelling colds, headaches and levers and permanently curing constipation. It has given satisfaction to millions and met with the approval of the medical profession, because it acts on the Kid neys, Liver and Bowels without weak ening them and it is perfectly free from every objectionable substance.
 Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug gists in soc and S1 bottles, but it is man. ufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, whose name is printed on every package, also the name, Syrup of Figs, and being we'll informed, you will not accept any substitute if offered.

PITTS BURGH FIRE.

Several Persons Badly Burned and Half a Million Dollars Damage Done Caused
 by the Explosion of n Barrel of Whisky.
 PITTSBURGH, Pa, Oct. 2S.-The eX- plosion of a barrel of whisky in the big warehouse of the Chautauqua Lake Ice Co. caused the destruction of $500, ,000 worth of property and serious injury to eight persons. Several of the injured, it is feared will die.
 A score or more of others sustained slight cuts and bruises, or were tram pied upon by the mob surrounding the burning buildings.
 It was just 1:02 o'clock when num- Der of the employees on the third floor of the Chautauqua Ice Co s building were startled by loud report, and all most in an instant the large room was ablaZe.
 The men quickly gave the alarm and then started for the stairs, but the flames had already cut off their escape, and the only means of exit left them were the windows, fifty feet from the ground. By this time the heat was so intense that they were forced to creep out upon the window sills and hang by their hands The flames bursting from the windows burned their hands and faces, but they hung there till the men of truck got ladders and brought them down.
 At 2:30 the walls on the Mulberry alley side fell in with crash and a few minutes later the eastern wall came down. The debris buried a long row of tenements in the alley and a three-story brick dwelling on Thir- teenth street. The tenements were occupied by twenty families but for tunately they had been deserted some time before the walls fell in.
 Not one of the families had chance to save any of their goods and all their furniture was destroyed. The ruins took fire immediately, and for while the entire tenement district of Pennsylvania avenue was threatened with destruction. By hard work the firemen succeeded in drown ing out these flames and the fire was confined to the buildings of the storage and ice companies. It was dark, how ever, before the fire was completely under control

{. Sweet Charity"

In the Artists Exhibition of 1893 at the New York Academy of Design, there was exhibited an oil-painting by J. l.. G. Ferris, entitled Sweet Charity" It's richness of coloring commanded instant attention, while the lesson it taught was so impress i've that one naturally returned to it for a second view.
 Its subject is a young lady of colonial times who is on an errahd of charity to one of the poorer families of the town. She has a sensible, charming face, which expresses with remarkable fidelity the sentiment of her errand. There IS not home that this charming picture will not ornament It must be seen to be appreciated.

THE TREASURY.
It Is Mensced with a Serious Defcit-A
 Failing on in Collections.


 WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-The condition of the treasury is serious and is being considered by the president. the cabi- net and leading men of both parties in congress. The deficit has already reached grave proportions, and which threatens, before the end of the next fiscal year, to be so large as to cause the secretary of the treasury very great embarrassment
 It was hoped at one time that some provision would be made for the issue of bonds or that other means would be devised whereby Secretary Carlisle could at once raise enough money to tide over his troubles, but the senti- ment in congress is now so strongly against a bond issue that it is very doubtful whether the necessary legis- lation could be obtained. At any rate it is not thought it could be secured at this session.
 Customs receipts and internal reve- nue collections have fallen off so heav- fly that at the present time the daily income is not large enough to meet the daily disbursements. The fixed and definite charges necessitated by the running of the government must be promptly met, the great army of em- ployes in all the executive depart ments throughout the country, the army and the navy must be paid, and these payments with the interest on the public debt and other miscellaneous disbursements amount in round num- bers to S1,0OO,0OO day. For long time the receipts have fallen below the million dollar mark and as result the secretary of the treasury is in the same position as a private individual when he has been living at the rate of s10,000 year and is only earning S5,000. In the case of a private individual or a merchant who finds his receipts are running behind there is the alternative left to him either to settle with his creditors at so many cents on the dollar or else bor- row money. The secretary cannot re- pudiate any of his obligations or make settlement with his creditors and un- fortunately there is no authority for him to borrow

TRAIN ROBBERS CONVICTED.
Starr, Wilson and Chaney to Get the Full

 Penalty of the Law.
 FoRT SMITH, Ark, Oct. CS.-1n the United States court Henry Starr, John Wilson and Ali Clancy were convicted of the robbery of Missouri, Kansas & Texas train at Prior Creek, l. T. The robbery was committed at 8 o'clock on the night of May }, 1S9S
 There were fifteen counts in the in dictment and the jury convicted the prisoner on six. There were a large mum Der of witnesses and nearly every one identified Wilson and Starr, though only a few had seen Clancy well enough to identify him. The attorneys for Starr and Wilson early gave up the hope of saving them, but fought hard to keep down the number of counts on which there should be conviction. A hard fight was made to clear Ali Chaney. Kid" Wilson took the stand during the trial and said that the rob bery was committed by himself, Starr, Frank Clancy, Jim Wilson (the Kids" brother) and two others, whom he knew only as Bill and Jack, and that Ali Clancy had nothing to do with it. Frank Chaney and the other two mem- bers of the gang are at large. Judge Parker will give them the full extent of the law.

 WASHINGTON, Oct. 30,-Nothing in years has so startled the people of Washington as the tragic death of Mayor Carter H. Harrison. It spread throughout the city in wonderfully quick time, and at once became the topic of conversation in the hotel lob. bies and public resorts.

 Col. William k. Morrison said: ''He was one of those fortunate persons who could govern intelligcntly and we'll large majority composed of the most discordant elements and still re- tain his own integrity. He was a clean man and his loss will be severely felt by the worlds fair city"
 Senator John M. Palmer, of Illinois, said he was so mortified by the news he scarcely knew what to say. "I have known Carter Harrison intimately" he continued, flor nearly thirty-five years and his assassination is almost as shock ing to me as was that of Garfield. l do not know of anything in the history of Illinois politics more to be deplored. His chances of becoming the next sen atpr from Illinois were good. His death is serious blow to the democratic party in Illinois"
 Senator Voorhees, said: ''I consider the death of Mayor Harrison calamity not to Chicago alone, but to the whole country. He was q man of national prominence and one of the foremost men in his party"
