Messrs. Henry & Graham have
returned from Charleston w. Va,
where they appeared in the u. S.
Circuit Court for Mr.. Walter Saun-
ders in his case against the Blue
field Water Works Co. This case
has gone through quite a number
Of courts, and has been handled in
a manner that leaves no doubt as
to the professional ability of Mr..
Saunders attorneys. The decision
of the court, while favOring both
parties, is victory for the plaintiff
though the costs IN the suit are to
be devided between the litigants.
If we could trace dyspepsia to its
source; it would lead back to our kitch-
ems. In fact, the secret of good health
id good cooking. II well cooked, foods
are partially digested; if poorly cooked,
they are less digestible than in their
raw state. II you are victim of faul-
ty cooking; that is, il you suffer from
Dyspepsia, the rational cure must be
looked for in an artificially d.gested
food, and food which will at the same
time aid the digestion OF other foods.
Such a preparation virtually rests the
tired digestive organs, thereby rostor-
ing them to their natural strength.
The Digestive Cordial, as prepared by
the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, is Just
such preparatinn, and a single 10 ct.
bottle will convince you OF its value.
If your druggist doesn't keep il, he will
be glad so get it through his wholesale

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 1.-THE
feat of replacing an iron bridge span
242 feet long, 25 feet wide and 80 feet
in depth with one of the same dfmen-
sons of steel, was accomplished in this
city today in two minutes and thirty
two seconds. In this space Of time
nearly 1,700 tons of iron and steel were
moved a distance of twenty-five feet,
and there was not a slip or hitch in
the entire proceedings.
This remarkable feat of engineering
was accomplished at 5vhat is known as
the connecting railroad bridge over
the schuylkill, just above Girard ave-
nue.. 1t is the bridge that bears the
tracks of the New York division of the
Pennsylvania railroad the busiest divl-
sion on the Pennsylvania system.
The time set for the replacement was
the forty-eight minutes intervening
between the passage over the bridge of
the Chestnut hill accemmo odatton trains
leaving Broad street station at 2:47 p.
M, ard at 3:35 p. M 3 A work train
crossed to the eastern1 end of the bridge
and stopped.
The gangs of trackmen began to un-
spike the rails OF the west-bound track
on the old span. This done, the crap
piers of the work train took hold Of the
ends of the rails thesengine started up

DHIbHNTHROPISTS

Sensational Criticisms of the w. c.
T. U.-Rev. Sam Smith
Talks.

BATTLE CREEK, Mich, Oct. H.
The Interstate Civic Philanthropic con-
ference closed tonight after six days
of session, which was successful as to
attendance and interest manifested.
Rev William Denman, of Battle Creek.
delivered an address upon Christ. the
Great Phllanthropist.'
An address by Rev. s. Sherin. Of
Chicago, secretary of the conference,
created a sensation. His topic was
How to Drain the Social Swamp"
He said that the social sewer is the
greatest evil of today. In Christianity,
he said, lies the cure, but the ordinary
Christian church was a failure. Only
5 per cent are touched by Christianity.
Despite the adverse criticism, no
church is doing so great philanthrOpic
work today as the Catholic, yet
masses, solos and sermons will never
accomplish what is needed. Churches
burdened with debt cannot easily help
others. Intemperance is thriving, de-
spite efforts of the church.
The W. c. T. U. was organized and
sent a thrill through the land, but it
has gone into political trickery and
will never put down the traffic. The
Y. M c. A. meant to do good, but is
worldly. It IS but a corpse; as phil
anthropic movements it Is a fraud.
Closing addresses were delivered this
evening by the president, Rev S. G..
Smith, D. D., of ST Paul, and others.
Gov. Pingree was on the programme,
but was detained in Detroit.

and the entire lengths Of the rails, 212
feet, was snaked off in short order.
Meanwhile four stationary engines,
one at each end on a level with the
bridge foundations, and another at each
end on scoWs. securely moOred at the
base of the bridge piers, were putting
and emphasizing their readiness for the
task they had to do. There was said
to be less than a hunred horse power
represented in these four engines, yet
so we'll was everything arranged that
they moved the leviathan without any
apparent oVer-eXertiOn. Then the sig
nal was given for the little stationary
engines to assert themselves. 1t SEEM
ed as if they started at the identical
instant. There was a Tightening of the
cables, an almost imperccptible creak
OF a wheel somewhere, and the big
bulk began to move northward: 1t was
like cIockwork.
AS the edge Of the old iron began to
show beyond the bridge piers the
crowds ON the north side of the river
set up shout, and as the breadth of
the new steel span began to disappear
behind the piers, the crowds on the
southern cOigns of vantage also joined
in the cheer, and almost before the
cheer had died away, the mighty feat
had been accomplished. In just two
minutes and thirty-two seconds from
the time Of starting the engines the
new span occupied the exact position
from which the old one had been re-
moved.

Charles Anderson Dana was born
His boyhood was spent in Buff
falo, N. Y, where he worked in a
store until he was eighteen years old.
He prepared himself for college, enter
ing Harvard in 1899, but after two
years, a serious trouble with his eye
sight compelled him to leave. He was
afterwards given his bachelors and
masters degrees by that institution.
In 1912 he became member of the
Brook Farm Association for Agricul-
ture and Education, being associated
with George and Sophia Ripley George
William Curtis, Nathaniel Hawthorne,
Theodore Parker, William Henry
Claiming John Sullivan Dwight, Mar
garet Fuller and other philosophers
more or less directly concerned in the
remarkable attempt to Tealize at Rox>
lectual life. His earliest newspaper
experience was gained in the man
agement of the Harbinger, which was
devoted to social reform and general
literature. After about two years of
editorial work on Eli2ur Wright's Bos-
ton Chronotype, daily newspaper, Mr..
Dana joined the staff of the New York
Tribune in 1S47. The next year he
spent eight months in Europe. On
returning he became one of the pro-
prietors and the managing editor Of
the Tribune, post which he held
until April l, 1862. The paper was
at that time the leading organ of the
anti-slavery movement. The great
struggle of Greeley and Dana was not
so much to-: overthrow slavery as
against the further spread of the in
stitution over unoccupied territory and
the acquisition of slaye-holdlng coun-
tries outside of the Union. In 1861
Mr.. Dana went to Albany to advance
the cause of Mr.. Greeley as a candi-
date for the United States senate, and
nearly, succeeded in nominating him.
Mr.. Dana resigned, after fifteen years
service on the Tribune, because Of
disagreement with Mr.. Greeley in re-
gard to the proper conduct of mill
tary operations in the South. He was
at once employed by Secretary Stanton

the hotel was a mass of flames and

in special work of Importance for
the war department, and in 1863 was
appointed assistant secretary of war,
which office he held until after the
surrender of Lee. He was brought
into close personal relations with Mr..
Stanton and Mr.. Lincoln. At the time
when Gen. Grants character and prob
able usefulness were unknown quan-
titles, Mr.. Danas confidence in Grants
military ability probably did much
to defeat the powerful effort then
making TO break down the rising
commander. Mr.. Dana was in the
saddle at the front much of the time
during the campaigns of Northern
Mississippi and Vicksburg, the rescue
of Chattanooga and the marches and
battles of Virginia in 1864 and 1865.
For short time after the war he
was editor of the Chicago Republican:
Returning to New York, he organized
the Sun stock company in 1867: The
first number of the Sun appeared Jan.
q, 1868, and from that time to within
a few days of his death Mr.. Dana was
soley responsible for its conduct. His
criticisms of civil maladministratton
during Gen. Grants terms as president
led to a notable attempt on the part
of that administration in July, 1873, to
take him from New York on charge
of libel to be tried without jury
in Washington police court AppE-
cation was made to the United States
district court in New York for war
rant of removal, but in memorable
decision Judge Blatchford, afterwards
a justice of the supreme court of the
United States, refused the warrant,
holding the proposed form of trial to
be unconstitutional. Mr.. Dana's first
book was a volume of stories trans
lated from the German, entitled The
Black Art In 1855 he planned and
edited, with George Ripley, the New
AMERICAN Cyclopedia. . Several later
editions have been Issued. With Gen.
James H. Wilson, he wrote Life
of Gen. Ulysses S. Grant" in 1868.
His Household Book Of Poetry has
passed through many editions; He
also edited in 1883 Fifty Perfect
Poems," Rossiter Johnson assisting
him in the work.

STUBBORN FIGHT FOR FIREMEN.
Flames Ruin u Seven-Story Factory
in New York.

in New York.
NEW YORK, Oct IA $500, 900 fire
in the seven-story factory building at
279 and 2S1 Spring street taxed the
energies of the fire department this
afternoon, and twenty engines and
large force of men were called out.
The basement, first and second floors
of the building were occupied by Fitz-
patrick & Co., manufacturers of mir
rors, plate glass, stained glass, coach
and carriage windows and doors. The
five upper floors were occupied by the
Bradley Currier company, manufac-
turers of doors, sashes, frames and
mantels of the most expensive sort.
This firm had among it's stock the dry
est of woods and the most inflamma-
bic oils and VarniShes.
Firemen were called to extinguish a
small fire in the basement and were
going away when flames were discov-
cred on the ground floor.
1t was apparent that an extensive fire
was in progress in the tall structure,
and alarm after alarm was sounded,
calling for more men and steamers. In
all, five calls for help We're sent out,
which brought fully half of the fire
engines and hook and ladder compa-
MES to the scene. Then the struggle
began in earnest, for the extensive
premises We're burning from ceiling

fought as best they could, but could
not save the factory The fire had
been allowed too much of a foothold.
and the immense structure was DOOM
ed After an hour or, so the floors be-
coming weakened, one after the other
gave way, and at last the flames shot
up through the roof
The building was erected years ago
py the trinity church corporation, at
a cost of 100000. Nothing of 1t now
remains but the blackened walls, and
they will have to be rebuilt. The stock
OF Fitzpatrick & Co. and the Bradley
Curr1er company, all Of which was de-
stroyed, was estimated to be worth
$200, 900.

NO LIVES WE'RE LOST.

In the hurry and excitement horses
and cattle in the stables were forgotten
and many perished in the flames or
were suffocated from smoke. The ruins
of the fire are ablaze tonight the
smouldering embers having been fan
ned into blaze, and the heavens are
lit with the flames, which cast their
reflection across the river as far as
the eye can see on either side. NO
effort has been made to quench these
fires and naturally the occupants OF the
few houses that remain are afraid tnat
the fire will spring up again. The fire
has moderated somewhat, and there is
no likelihood of further disaster. Re
lief measures were started in Halifax
at an early hour, and this afternoon a
t1ainload of provisions, tents, blankets,
etc. arrived from the provincial cap1-
tai. Aboard the train were Gen. Mont
gomery Moore, Gov. DAILY, Mayor Ste
phen and 100 men of the Royal Berk-
shire regiment and Royal engineers,
who were brought to attend to the erec-
ton of tents and aid in the relief work.
The total loss is estimated roughly at
s.. 900 600. While a number Of the
heaviest losers are partially insured
and some of them pretty we'll covered,
the total insurance is calculated to be
not more than half a million.
