IN OAK S TREET FIRE.
Lively Fire in Grocery Store Last Even
ing.

Lively Fire in a Grocery Store Last Even
Fire was discovered about half-past
eleven o'clock last night in the grocery
store of an Italian named Rudolph
Vaseen, at the corner of Oak and Fac
tory streets. The building is wooden
one, old and dilapidated, and is part
of the old Healey property and at pres
ent owned by Mrs. Dora Isaac.
A large quantity of baled hay was
stored in the building, and this COM
bined with the tinder-like nature Of the
building to give the firemen a great
deal of difficultyain putting out the fire.
The building was deluged with water
without any especial effect upon the
burning hay. The firemen at last set
to work carrying out the bales Of hay
into the street, where the fire in the
bales was put out.
The fire is supposed to have started
from a stove In the corner of the store,
where the fire was conferred when first
discovered by the boy who gave the
alarm.
At one time some kerosene caught
fire. and the whole side of the building
was in flames.
The fire spread from the building to
another old structure beside it, also the
property Of Mrs. Isaac. This is occu-
pied by a shoemaker's shop and sever
al families, and it was some time be-
| fore the fire was fairly under control
The corner building was pretty thor
oughly Quilted by the flames. Some OF
the tenants made haste to move their
small household effects into the street

Paine's celery compound Is the one
remedy that can be trusted to make a
person well.
1t stops the drain on the nervous
system; dispels harmful humors from
the blood, and increases its volume and
its nourishing capacity.
Its ability to relieve those ailments
that seem to be peculiarly the misfor-

proved by the many testimonials from
women of the highest standing in the
communities where they live.
Its regulating power does away with
"that disheartened feeling.

The aggravated causes of disordered

hysteria and kindred troubles, are rec
ognized and dealt with by Paine's cell

tific manner that embodies the most
advanced medical ideas of this last
decade of the century.

the stomach when it is irritable and in

truthful person in the whole range of
my acquaintance. L never knew him
to run into the slightest exaggeration
or to borrow in the least degree from
his imagination in relating an occur
renee" One of the party remarked:
Il was amused one day to hear an
officer say that the General was 'tedi-
ously truthful He explained that
what he meant by that was that the
General, in mentioning something that
had taken place, would direct his mind
SO earnestly to stating unimportant de-
tails with entire accuracy that he
would mar the interest of the story.
For instance, after returning from a
walk around camp he would say: I
was told so and so about the wounded
by DR.. while we were talking this
morning inside of his tent and a half
hour afterward he would take the trou-
BILE to come back and say, as if it were
matter of the greatest Importance:
I was mistaken when 1 told you that
my conversation with DR.. - occurred
inside his tent; that was not correct II
took place while we We're standing in
front of his tent There was much
truth in this comment. No one who
had served any time with the General
could fail to be struck with his excel
lent memory, and the pains he invaria-
bly, took to state occurrences with pos
tive accuracy, even in the most unim-
portant particulars

cent. solution of common salt and a
continuous current is passed through it
for ten or twelve hours, after which
the meat is dried. But in the memoirs
of Andrew Cross, published in 1887,
that experimenter claims to have kept
electrically treated fish fresh for three
months, although they were tasteless
at the end of that period. 1t is possi-
BILE, however, to refrigerate by elec-
tricity, water having been frozen at a
certain junction of a thermopile.
The Russians have been very active
in applying electrical methods to sugar
publication. 1t seems that the current
acts on certain materials in the liquid
which are not sugar with more force
than lime, depositing three times as
much Of the nitrogenous materials as
the lime. The Schollmeyer and Huber
process is now used industrially in
Stepanowka and in Woronowitza in
Russia. The Germans, on the other
hand, have sought to electrolyze mo-
lasses, the idea being to increase the
profit in sugar factories by improving
the quality of the bi-produce. The ex-
perimenters have succeeded in raising
the percentage of the potassium car
Donate from fifty-three to over sixty
four per cent. The Marsden process of
electrolytically extracting sugar from
cOrnStalks has been reduced to a prac-
tical basis. In Russia they are using
an electrical process for the purifica-
ton of beet root juice. The transi-
tion to electric farming is natural, and
in this country we have had it in it's
mechanical application, such as the
adaptation of the current to plows and
other machinery, and in it's theoretical
application, such as seed termination
and stimulated plant growth. The
first is practical and settled, the sec
ond Will have to be further developed.
Electric tanning is now being prac-
ticed, and an electric cotton picker is
on the market. There are several cleo
trio disinfecting processes and acety-
lene gas is made by the current but at
the bottom of the worn out Pennsylva-
MIA oil wells, electricity has really
valuable use. Old oil wells finally be-
come choked up with their own grease,
which permeates the rocks and finally
stops the fiow An electric cautery
lowered into the wells melts this grease
and starts the flow. Many old wells
have been reopened in this way. In
short, the recent industrial application
of electricity might be continued in
definitely. They include everything
from the testing of car wheels to the
lighting of country houses, from the
medical uses of X-rays to the sure pro-
lection from bank burglars, from the
use of the current for boat propulsion
to its use as spectacle-pr producer in
theaters. But enough has been said
to show that even if the other theories

What Department
Stores Have Done.

From the New York "Economist.n
"The department. store has done
much to raise the moral standard
of business, and will In time ban
ish from the public mind all ideas
of sharp trading, for the very
simple reason that general laws
based on common sense and eoui-
ty govern, in place of individual
judgment applied to each trans
action as it occurs.
"The department store in order
to exist must have the confidence
Of the public. Goods must be sold
to every purchaser at the same
price, there must be no misrepre-
sentations, and a liberal spirit
must prevail, so that all who come
can feel that they are protected
from fraud and cheating Of every
kind. A child or a blind person
is perfectly safe when buying in
the modern department store.
$50 far as the management and
control of these trading empor-
iums are concerned, there are two
qualities absolutely essential to
success, not only in dealing with
the public, but in the conduct and
government Of emp1oyes-invaria
BILE system and impartial justice.
Those who come nearest to OBJ
serving these are nearest the top
most rung of the ladder that leads
to success"

NEW YORK EAST CONFERENCE.
The Forty-ninth Annual Session Progress.
ing in Its Work.

Brooklyn, April S.-The forty-ninth
annual New York East conference of
the Methodist church was continued
here to-day. The Rev. w. H. Law
renee moved that the Seamen's Friend
society be restored to place in the
conference list, and this was agreed to-.
Rev. N. H. Abel moved that as the
next conference would be the 'fiftieth
anniversary, the elders presiding pre-
pare a special program.
A resolution was offered by the Rev.
O. Pullman to the effect that transfers
of preachers from one conference to
another shall require the concurrent ac-
tion of the bishops of the conferences,
and in view of the pressure of bust
ness the bishops be requested to make
no transfers without a transfer of
equal grade. After a spirited debate
the resolution was adopted with a
slight modification.
G. M Meurini and G. III. Bach were
appointed trustees, and w. A. Layton
in place of G. Fl. Habell, resigned. The
Rev. A. G. Kynett reported progress on
the part of the church extension soci-
ETY..
w. N. Rice offered a resolution pro-
viding that the board of examiners
recommend that certificates be accept
ed from regular theological schools of
the church and from Universities and
colleges approved by the university
senate, and that such certificates be
accepted on all subjects which they
might cover it being understood an
examining board examine each candi-
date as to his personal attitude towards
the Methodist church. After an ad-
dress by Mrs. Clinton B. Fiske on the
work of the women's home mission, of
which she is president, the conference
adjourned.
