TERRIBLE EXPLOSION!
Too High Pressure.

In these days Of keen competition in every
line, when the business man is compelled TO
bend his intellect and every energy to the
success of his business the clerk, book
keeper, professional man and laborer, to
drive themselves at terrific rate, there can
be but one result-an explosion, which, if
not resulting in immediate DEATH leaves
them with shattered brains and bodies.
They are running at too high pressure.
The strain is too great. Something must
and does give way. This is equally true Of
women. Though their sphere is more
limited, they have their daily burdens, frets,
and worries, and the results are the same as
with their stronger companions.
This condition is growing worse every
day. The rapidity of its increase is awful
to contemplate. Our homes, hospitals, and
insane asylums are full of these uniortunates,
and are being crowded still further. There
is but one solution Of the matter. Recog-
nize the importance Of the situation at once,
and take the necessary measures to over
come it. If you have failing memory, hot
flashes, dizziness, nervous or sick headache,
biliousness, irritability, melancholy, sleep
lebbUBbs, idlutllibJ hSiNVuo NyoPNpoA"J SPA

a symptom Of the calamity that may befall

YESTERDAYS MEETING.


Mrs, Lease Addresses an Enthusi-
astlc Gathering from All Parts of
the County In the Christian Taber-
nacle-
Notwithstanding the cold north
wind and lowering clouds yesterday
morning, a large crowd gathered in
town to listen to the most eloquent
and earnest lady orator IN the United
States. And they felt themselves
we'll repaid, for Mrs. Lease certainly
merits all the praise that has boen
bestowed upon her by a grateful pub
lie.
Promptly at 2 o'clock, Chairman
Mccormick introduced the speaker to
as many people as could possibly
crowd into the tabernacle in which
the meeting was held Many people
unable to crowd into the building,
clustered around the windows, and
stood in wind and storm, during the
whole meeting. For two hours dur
ing wind aud rain, (the cover Of the
tabernacle furnished almost no pro.
tection) she held the undivided atten-
ton of the audience. She recounted
the achievements Of the democratic
and republican parties, showing how
they were organized for purpose,
and had ontllved their usefulness. -
The transportation and land questions
were handled with intelligence and
dispatch Abundant statistics abso-
lutely unquestionable were produced
showing the drift toward landlordism
with all it's evils, and the position OF
the peoples party on these issues
fully calculated The question OF
finance, the paramount issue Of the
day, received close attention. The
whole history of republican legisla-
ton on this question was reviewed,
and the present administration shown
to have fused" with that of Harrison
and his predecessors. Prohibition,
tariff, aud equal suffrage were incl
dentlally touched, and the Kansas
Legislature, with Geo. H. Douglass
received some severe notice toward
the close. No mere epitome can give
anything like the effect Of hearing
the speech. No description however
adequate could protray the eloquence
the earnestness of the speaker Moth
ing but the faintest outline has been
given. The speech was one Of The
strongest, ablest and most fearless
discourses which the people OF Phil
lips county have listened to for many
months. Mrs. Lease goes from our
town bearing with her the respect,
the admiration Of political friend
and foe alike.

In attempting to answer Mr.. Gel

contemporary ventures the assertion
that certain statements made and

so it ventures the prediction that the

when do bare assertions and mere

against cold facts? For weight and
logic it reminds one of the favorite

anything goes wrong politically it is

cratic party.

Thousands OF people yesterday visited
the scene OF the disastrous scmulbach
Brewing Company's stable fire. The
scene was certainly deplorable one
$4,000 edfice and nearly half that
amount in feed aud stock destroyed by
some despicable fire bug. The schmul-
bach fire aud the othars on the South
Side, were of incendiary origin, uu-
doubtedly, and Yesterday tho mayor
after a conference with Police Chief
McNichOl, members OF the city council
and business men, decided to oller a re.
ward Of 5000 for the capture Of the in
cendiary. This action meets with 40.
proval, and together with tho vigilance
of the police force tho fire fiend may be
brought TO speedy justice.
The fire department was on duty ut
tho fire until late hour yesterday
morning, and it was o'clock in tho
afternoon when the Wheeling No. 4
boys retired their last stream, At that
time every spark had been distinguished,
and all that remained were the bare
walla OF the once magnificent structure,
with a confused mass OF rubbish in the
basement that once represented wagons,
beer kegs, beer bottles, etc.
Mr.. Charles Horstman was seen at
the brewery Office and gave the follow
ing itemized estimate OF tho loss caused
by the fire:

RINGING IN ALARMS.

What Causes the Confusion and How
TO Avoid 1t,
At nearly every recent fire there has
been more or less confusion Of the
alarm. Many people supposed this was
due to some fault OF the boxes or alarm
wires, but the TACT is that it is caused
by tho pulling OF several alarm boxes at
once, which necessarily interfere with
one another. This causes confusion
always, and delay often. As it is easily
avoided, il should not occur go often.
When a person opens box to ring
in an alarm he should waittwo or three
seconds and listen. II another box has
already been pulled little bell in
every box will sound the alarm. This
shows at once that to pull another. box
will but confuse tho alarm and delay
the department.
Thore is a common idea that an alarm
repeated four or five times is a general
alarm. calling the entire department.
This also is IN error. Once is enough
TO pull down the lever. When the en-
tire department is needed the chief
alone can send in tho general call, and
this is two-two, rung at an interval OF
time after the first alarm is sent in.
The call OF two strokes not repeated
is simply a call tor the chief to come to
headquarters or to the nearest tele-
phone.
A little care on the part OF those who
send in alarms will prevent world OF
trouble.
