Of Woodstock, Mich, was badly af-
fiicted with rheumatism. His right leg
was swollen the full length, causing
him great suffering. He was advised
to try Chanberlain's Pain Balm. The
first bottle of it helped him considera-

cure. The 20 and 50-cent sizes are for

/" SWEAT SHOP" FIRE.
One Man Killed and Another Fatally
Injured.

Baltimore, March 15.-One man was
killed and another probably fatally in
jured today in an attempt to escape
from being burned to death. The blaze
was in sweat shop" on the fourth
floor of a tenement house, at 202 AL
bemarle street, and was occasioned by
the explosion of gasoline.
Michael Serwinski and Bartholomew
Valentine, Luthunian tailors, in the
room pressing clothes, found them
selves hemmed in by the flames and
became frantic with fright The only
window in the room opened on a mar
row alley in the rear, only three feet
wide, on the other side of which was
a roof just a little lower than the win
dow sill The men crowded each other
in the window and jumped together.
They fell forty feet to the pavement
below and Serwinski's brains were
dashed out. Valentine landed on top
of him, which accounts for his not
being killed also.

DOLE Is STILL HOPEFUL.

ton would be paramount in congress.
When ] was in Washington" said
Mr. Dole, Il met many friends of Ha-
wall. They feel confident that annex
alton will come. While there was a
doubt whether, the treaty would secure
the required sfxtysvotes in the senate,
still IL was the concensus of opinion
that joint resolution would carry in
both houses. 1 place much reliance in
what was told me by senators and con-
gressmen who are fighting for Hawaii,

President Mckinley was extremely
favorable. / found him to be an unas-
sumng, frank and sterling man. He
seems to have heart and soul in the
annexation treaty. Our reception was
extremely cordial and hospitable. All
along the line to and from Washington
throngs of people came to see me. We
shook hands, and in many instances

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York March 15.-rhe movement of
stock prices today was confused and the
market very puzzling. Decidedly lower
quotations for Americans in London
caused an unsettled tone at the opening.
Prices partly responded to the London
initiative but did not fall fully to the
London parity. a furious buying move
ment quickly developed which lifted the
level of the whole market strongly above
last nights close. The buying was most
conspicuous in the local and industrial
specialties but there was no lack of
strength to the railway list either the
demand for the Grangers being especially
heavy. Heavy realizing met the advance
and wiped out large part of 1t before
the first hour had expired, This was the
most active period of the days trading.
There then ensued slow and laborious
recovery which developed higher prices
than the first squirt. And yet this Sec
ond advance also was wiped out in prac-
tically all cases except some of the spe-
cialtles and the day shows net losses in
most of the standard stocks extending to
a point or over in some cases. Thus al
was traVersed four times during the day.
There was very little in the news TO ex-
plain these conflicting movements and
Wall street opinion of the political out
look was on the surface less apprehen-
sive. Total sales of stocks were 422 100
shares.

ana Yearly meeting. His wife has been
dead for dozen years. 1t appears
that his great desire was to have young
girls for his companions, and he has
purchased presents of all sorts for
misses. His son certified that in six
years his father had expended about
10000, and at least $4,000 of this
amount was used to buy dresses, jewel
ry, furniture, flowers, etc, for his
young women friends.
The venerable Jonathan had a mania
for having his picture taken with his
young friends, and numerous speci-
mems were in the court room as evil
dence. The children say that if al
lowed to continue his money spending
he will soon be a pauper Judge Fox
decided that the defendant Is of un-
sound mind, and will appoint a guar
dian for him without delay.
