FIRE AT JERMYN.
The ID. and II. Fan House Badly
Damaged by Flames--A False
Alarm-- II ighway Robbers at Work

About 12.45 yesterday the whistle at the
Delaware and Hudson breaker sounded
the alarm of fire. The few members of
Crystal Fire company, who were not at
work, were soon upon the scene of ac-
tion. The fire was discovered in the fan
house, used to provide fresh air for min
ers. All the windows were barred up
and on account of the dense smoke, 1t
was uifiicult, for some time, to locate the
flames. When the smoke had sufficiently
cleared away Ii was found the fire was
in the shaft siding, the origin of which
was attributed to a hot journal on one
of the engines. The Hose company work.
ed for about an hour before the fire was
put out. 1t is very lucky that the build
ing was not destroyed, for If it was 1t
would necessitate shutting down the mine
until the building was rebuilt, as this
is their only means of forcing fresh air
into the mines.
At 5.45 an alarm of fire was sounded,
but upon investigation, no fire could be
found. A large brush heap was burning
on Third street, which no doubt was the
cause of the alarm.
A party composed of a number of
young people enjoyed a straw ride to
Vandling last evening.
On Sunday evening last Hungarian,
while walking from Peckvile to his home
at Mayfield yard, was set upon by three

on the railroad he got on street car.
He was covered with blood. his clothes
| were torn and was minus hat.

us that when anyone goes s--------
insane, frequently their whole nature is re.
versed. They do and say exactly the op-
posite things to what they would do in
their sane minds, A mother whose mind
breaks down under extreme nervous ten
sion may turn upon the one object in all
the world most precious to her-her baby.
The terrible nervous tension under which
many women live and suffer because of
some weakness or disease of their sex,
keeps them on the very verge of insanity.
The constant drag and drain upon the COM

whole nervous system and works upon the
