LAFAYETTE's COURTESY.

woman.
The visit Of Lafayette to America, a
the nations guest, is graphically re-
called by Jean Fraley Hallowell, who
writes OF when Lafayette Rode into
Philadelphia" one Of the notable series
Of articles ON "Great Personal Events. >
The welcome given Lafayette in Phila-
delphia is said to have exceeded in it's
warmth and enthusiasm that extended
to the distinguished visitor in any other
city. In connection with his riding
into Philadelphia, the central figure Of
4 respondent pageant. an interesting
incident II thus recalled: "Lafayette's
barouche was passing, ON Eleventh
street, the house where dwelt the wild
ow Of Robert Norris, fnancier OF the
revolution, q, sister of Rev. Bishop
White. Mrs. Morris was at her win
dow, and, recognizing her after many
years, Lafayette rose up in his carriage
and bowed to her. The rare courtesy
was instantly discerned by the thou
sands cougregated at this point, and 1t
seemed as If the people would 60 mad
with enthusiasm. The recognition of
Mrs. Norris seemed to set them afame.
Even Lafayette seemed surprised that
the simple act should evoke such a wave
Of frantic huzzas. Shout after shout
rent the air; women WED with men in
their efforts to show to Lafayette that
his graceful act touched them. So
great was the furore that the hero had
to rise again and again in his carriage.
and It was several minutes before the
wonderful enthusiasm had abated. But
IL the applause subsidized at the special
point where it had been waited into a
fame, It was rekindled again and again,
and carried along the entire route Of
march. BY simple net hs had aroused
the people, and the fruits Of It remained
with him al through his visit in the
Quaker city."-Ladies' Home Journal.

ELKINs FIRE SWEPT.
No Fire Department and Citizens
We're Helpless.

ELKINs, w. Va, March 14.-This
morning about 1870 o'clock blaze
was discovered emerging from the
store room at the corner of Third
street and Davis avenue, occupied by
the Elkins Hardware and Furniture
Company. 1t is supposed that the
fire originated in the I'd story of the
building, owned by the Crescent Club.
AS the town has no fire protection
and the buildings were all frame, it
was soon seen that the business por-
ton of the town would be burned.
The hardware and furniture COM
pany carried large stock of oils,
varnishes, etc, which burned like
firebrands. In less than an hour
the whole square was burning, as a
severe wind was blowing Nothing
could be done towards saving the
buildings, but portions of the stocks
were saved.
The fire was raging on the east
side of the street from Fourth street
to the large three-story brick build
ing next to the Elkins National
Bank, on the corner of Third street
and Davis Avenue. The large build
ing on the northwest corner of
Fourth street, with frontage on
Davis avenue of 150 feet, owned by
DIR. Talbot and occupied by T. J.
Stalnaker's saloon, A. j. Cunning
hams billiard room, M "A. Nusbaum's
large clothing store and Talbott's
drug store, with Stalnaker's boarding
house and furnished rooms in
the second floor, were soon in ashes.
The only thing that saved the Wood
ward Block and the bank, although
they were brick and stone structures,
from complete destruction was the
fact that the wind turned its course
and blew the flames and sparks over
| into the park.
The citizens turned out in body,
but could do nothing but stand and
watch the destruction At several
times it looked as though the bank
building and post-of1ice must 60,
but force of men went to the roof
and flooded them with water from
buckets. The Randolph Hotel, one
Of the largest buildings in the town,
which is located at the corner of
Fourth and Railroad streets, took
fire several times and was given up
as lost, everything being moved from
the building. But the wind turned
its course, and, with the exception of
a terrible scorching and small hole
in one end Of the kitchen, it is I'M
harmed.
Aid was asked from nearby towns
but it came too late. The losses ag-
gregate $4,000 partially insured.
The terrible lack of water works
thus cost the town enough to build
and equip first class department
and run it for a hundred years. The
burned district will be rebuilt at
once.

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, Of Marshfe1d, NO.,
writes: For six years have been a
sufferer from a scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
Of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though l am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.S.S. long ago,
would have escaped years of misery
and saved over &I5o."
This experience is like that Of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root Of
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.
