FIRE IN COUNTY POORHOUSE
OLD MAN BURNED TO DEATH.
The DOrmitOry of the Whitman
County Poorhouse Destroyed by
Fire, Supposed to Have Been
Started by the Man Who Lost His
Life i'm the Conhagratfon.

Elberton, Wash, Nov. 1.-The sleeping
apartments of the male inmates at the
Whitman county poor farm were destroy
ed by fire yesterday and G. w. Hull, an
aged inmate, perished in the flames. 1t Is
believed Hull set the fire which destroyed
the building and cost him his life. The
fire was discovered about 10 a. m. and
in a few minutes the building was mass
of ruins. amid which could be seen the
charred remains of the aged victim. The
building was a large square frame striic-
turc of one and one-half stories and was
built two years ago. 1t was dry and
burned ike finder.
Although the fire occurred in the day
time and several OF the inmates were in
the building, no effort was made to res
cue Hull beyond calling to him. He was
living on cot and refused to move and
the inmates who discovered him, being
old and feeble, had not the presence Of
mind nor strength sufficient to drag him
from the burning building. One inmate
grabbed an iron bedstead in the room
where Hull lay and tried to save it, but
allowed the man to perish. When w. IL.
Gleason, keeper of the poor farm, return
ed from town, where he had gone for
the mail, it was too late to save the burn
ing building or the man.
The body was burned beyond all human
resemblance.

The
Cruel knife!

The alarming increase in the number
of deaths which occur as the result OF
surgical operation is attracting general
attention, aud a Gtrong sentiment
against such methods of treatment Ia
fast developing among the most intelii-
gent classes. 1t seems that in almost
every case for which the doctors treat
ment is unsuccessful, the learned physis
clans decide ut once thar All operation
must be performed. and the keen blada
of the surgeon is reckIessly resorted to.
Doctors are human, and OF course ara
liable to make mistakes. but their mis-
takes are 100 fatal to be ifBdulged in
promiscuously, and as So many lives are
sacrificed in this manner, il IS but natural
for the public to believe that half this
operations are unnecessary, besides be-
ing fearful risk to human life, even X
successful.
1t is a positive fact however, that all
operations are not necessary, and that
majority of them are absolutely under
taken without the slightest chance of
success. The doctors have never been
able TO cure blood disease, and sur
gical operation is their only method OF
treating deep-seatesl cases, such as can
Ger aud scrofulous affections. Aside
from the great danger, an operation
never did aud never will cure cancer, as
the disease never fails to return. Can
Ger is in the blood, and common sense
teaches anyone that no disease can bo
cut from the blood.
