Defective FIue Causes the Destruction Of
-Four Dwellings.

Special TO EVENING HERALD.
CENrBAL1A, Mar 17.-Shorty after three
o'clock yesterday afternoon fire was dis
covered on West Rey hill, little outside the
borough line. 1t originated in the property
of Michael Tighe and is supposed to have been
caused by a defective fue The fire company
Of this place responded promptly, but owing
to the fact that the scene Of the fire was out
side the borough limits and several hundred
yards from the nearest fire plug, the company
was almost poweress to do anything. The
distance was too great for its hose TO cover and
only buckets could be used. The flames
spread rapidly and four two-story frame
dwellings were destroyed with some Of the
contents, but most Of the latter were saved
The houses burned were owned by Michael
Tighe, William Elwel, Thomas Rowan and
Mrs. John Hahey. Several other dwellings
were damaged by fire and water

A STRANGE TREE.
1t Is In the White House Grounds and
Exudes Moisture,

There is a phenomenon near the north
east corner of the White House. which
has attracted the attention of several peo-
pie. rctably the policemen who do duty on
the grounds. 1t is a black elm tree. and
stands on the side of the asnhalted side
walk which leads from the northeast gate
to the White House. During the warm,
clear days of the past few weeks it has
Teen noticed that the pavement under the
tree was wet. as il 1t had been sprink,ed
Investigation revealed that the water or
whatever kind Of fluid 1t is comes from
the tree. 1t always falls in the dryest. of
weather, and keeps the pavement well
sprinkled.
Various reasons have been given for the
phenomenon but SO far none of a scien-
tific nature. The humorists say that the
tree is weeping in sympathy with the dis
appointed Office seekers, who stop under i;s
sheterfng bcughs and look back at a
wreck of ambitious hopes and blighted
prospects. The expectation is that the
tree will surpass itself this week, IL IL is
really OF the sympathetic kind. The de-
parture of the President for Nashville will
leave the office seekers a long stretch of
waiting and weeping.

FREE TO EVERY MAN.
THE METHOD OF A GREAT TREATMENT.
Which Cured Him After Everything Else
 Failed.


 Painful diseases are bad enough, but when man is slowly wasting away with nervous weakness the mental forebod- lngs are ten times worse than the most severe pain. There is no let-up to the mental suffering day or night. Sleep IS almost impossible and under such a what they do. For years the writer rolled and tossed on the troubled sea Of sexual weakness, until 1t was question whether he had not better take dose or poison and thus end all his troubles. But providential inspiration came to his ald in the shape of combination or medl- cines that not only completely rsefored the general health, but enlarged his weak, emaciated parts to natural size and vigor, and he now declares that any man who will take the trouble to send his name and address may have the method of this wonderful treatment free. Now, when say free, I mean absolutely without cost, because I want every weak ened man to get the benefit of my expe- rience.
 am not philanthropist, nor dc pose as an enthusiast, but there are thousands of men suffering the mental tortures or weakened manhood who would be cured at once could they but get such a remedy as the one that cured me. Do not try to study out how l can afford to pay the few postage stamps necessary to mail the information, but send for it and learn that there are a few things on earth that, although they cost nothing to get they are worth fortune to some men, and mean a lifetime of happiness to most of us. Write to Thomas Slater, Box 181, Kalamazoo, Mich., and the informa- ton will be mailed in a plain sealed en- yelope. S-30-su&wed-tf

 Several persons have asked me how much flesh lost in the week of the race in New York. I don't know myself, for I didn't weigh before starting. Not over five or six pounds, as I have nothing to lose after train down to 160 pounds"
 When will you ride again?"
 Probably at Chicago in February. I don't believe will go unless I am paid a lump sum as an attraction. I don't want to go. in and depend entirely upon getting. a piece of prize money. I am afraid that if I got into a race where I would be pushed hard enough to worry me l. might get off my wheel and tell them to fight it out among themselves, and wouldn't like to do that But a man cant tell what he will do when he is under such a terrible strain."
 He was thunderstruck when he was told of the enormous size of the Coliseum at Chicago and its wonderful track. and said he hoped to have the pleasure of riding there, and would if the arrange ments were satisfactory.

MOTHERS WERE ENTERTAINED. Chicago Evening Post.
 A Christmas dinner was served Sun day to the working mothers, whose chill dren are cared for during working hours at the St. Elizabeth's nursery, and the hostesses were six of Chicagos most prominent and active spirits in charity work, who for the nonce tabooed the babies and gave the nursery over to the entertainment of the tired out mothers
 The kindly face of Mrs. Turnbull, the matron in charge, was aglow with pride and beamed pleasantly on all The three tables were decorated with pink carnations and maidenhair ferns After the dinner a Christmas carol was joined in by all and was sung with fervor and good will not often heard, for it arose from the hearts of thankful mothers whose babes received the maternal care from kind hearts which was denied them from their own.
 The next afternoon the Christmas tree enraptured the hearts of the little ones each of whom received tokens of remem- brance in the shape of toys and Christ mas candies
