Last Thursday afternoon about 4:lO
an alarm of fire was given which was
very quickly responded TO by the de-
partment. The fire was at the residence
of A. p. Anderson, but very little dam
age was done and the fire, which was in
the second story, was extinguished by
the time the hose cart arrived. The fire
was started by Johnnie, the five-year-o
adopted son of Mr.. Anderson, who had
been playing with some matches and
caused them to be ignited, when he came
down stairs, but said nothing of it until
questioned afterward, when he admit
ted that he had started the fire. He had
evidently been building a house out OF
the matches and thought house of little
use this time Of year without fire in it.

One of the most remarkable cures of
rheumatism on record is related by Mr..
j. Nj. Thompson, post master at Deck er's
Point, Pa, as follows: "While out driv-
ing one day last winter l was caught in a
cold rain. The next morning / was un-
able to move my head or arms, owing to
an attack of intlammatory rheumatism
My clerk telephoned for physician, but
suggested that | use Chamberlain's Pain
Balm, there being a bottle open on the
counter He rubbed the affected parts
throughly with Pain Balm and built up
hot fire. l dozed off to sleep and when
| awoke about half an hour later the pain
had gone entirely, and l have not been
troubled since. People come here from
many miles around to buy Chamber
lain's medicines" For sale by G.. w.

fool with bad cold. No one can tell
what the end will be. Pneumonia,
catarrh, chronic bronchitis, if not con-
sumption, invariably result from a neg
lected cold. 1t is surprising, too, that
bad colds are so often neglected when one
remembers how easily and at what little
expense they may be cured. Cham ber-
lain's Cough Remedy is always prompt
and etlectual, and costs but trihe; 25 or
disastrous effects of a neglected cold. Mr..
Abner Mercer of Dilworthtown, Chester
county, Pa, in speaking of this remedy,
said: "Sometime ago | had a bad cold
and cough. / tried almost everything.
Finally Mr.. Hunt, the druggist, recon-
mended Cham berlain's Cough Remedy,
and one so cent bottle OF il cured me en-
tirely." For sale by G. w. Bovard.

and that unless the stanps had been de

decision is that tho tariff law went into
effect at midnight last Friday and that
those who secured the discount when pur-
chasing stamps at any time last Saturday
must refund that discount, otherwise their
plants would be seized and closed by the
government. We are all Of the opinion
that the ruling Is not q fair one to the
brewers, and that the governments acting

what are you going to do about 1t. Still
tho ruling Is not honest or on business

In Trip ON the Eest River She Runs
Into Freight Car Float.
New York. July so.-The United
States battlsphip Maine left the Brook
lyn navyyatd soon after II o'clock yes
terday morning. She had sailed from
Gardeners Island In the morning and
passed the City Island at $50 o'clock.
At the foot Of Clinton street one Of the
Mallory line steamboats, was lying
across the stream, and in order to pass
her the Maine had to sail pretty close
to the New York shore. At the saEy,
time the excursion steamer Chancellor
was coming up the river, also hugging
to the New York shore.
The excursion steamer could not turn
out Of her course without crashing into
the Mallory steamer The commander
of the Maine had only one alternative,
and that was to run into a float an
chored at Pier 46 and loaded with
empty freight cars. The Maine was
turned for the pier, and her bow cut
into the float and then crashed into the
end Of the pier. The float cracked al
most Immediately. The end Of the float
was cut off so clean that the cars on
1t were not thrown from the track.
After the float sank the cars could be
seen about Aalf above the water, as
the tide was not very high at the time.
Before striking the float the Maine
blew her alarm whistles and the men
at work on the float and on the pier
got out Of the way of danger. No one
was hurt, and the excursion steamer
proceeded on her way. The Maine was
not greatly damaged.
