BIG.LOSS IN VERNON.
DeHat Bros. Store Destroyed Saturday
Morning.

Fire was discovered In the drug store of
DeHart Bros. early Saturday morning and
before II was put out the store was total
wreck and with 1t the entire stock of drugs,
oils, etc. The village has no fire engine,
but the volunteer bucket brigade worked
hard to put out the fire and to keep it from
spreading to the adjoining stores which
were naturally In great danger. The dry
goods stock of II. B. Mclaughlin was en-
tirely removed from his store which ad-
Joined the DeHart store, as was also the
entire stock of Weeden's shoe store which
adjoined the Mclaughlin store on the other
side, but for time it looked as though the
buildings themselves could not be saved.
The bucket brigade won out, however, and
the business part of the Town was saved.
The cause of the fire was unknown, both
tween mice and matches being suggested as
possible causes. The loss Is estimated at
about ten thousand dollars with three thou
sand insurance, one on the building and
two on the stock. The Mclaughlin build
ing was also damaged about fiftv dollars
worth.
The Owosso fire department which was
telegraphed for responded promptly to the
alarm which was blown and were at the de-
pot ready to go in very short time. Be-
fore starting message was received
from Vernon stating that the fire was un-
der control and it would not be Necessary to
come. That their promptness was appreci-
ated by the business men of Vernon how
ever is testified to by the voting of $25 90 to
the Owosso department by the Vernon
village board.

Robbed the Grave.

A startling incident, of which Mr.. John
Oliver Of Philadelphia, vas the subject, Is
narrated by him as follows: IL was In a
most dreadful condition, my skin was al
most yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated,
pain continually In back and sides, no appe-
tite-gradually growing weaker day by day.
Three physicians had given me up. Fortu-
nately, a friend advised trying Electric
Bitters;' and to my great Joy and surprise,
the first bottle made decided improve
ment. l continued their use for three
weeks, and am now we'll man. l know

them. Only so cts per bottle at Will K.

Sergt James A. Thompson to 60 to the
Ladrones Next Week.

Ladrones Next Week.
Sergeant James A. Thompson, of the I'd
regiment u. s. Engineers, was In the city
few days the first Of the week. He expects
to leave the first of the week for the La
drone islands where his regiment is to be
engaged In building docks and a coaling
station for government use. The regiment
will take with them every tool which they
can possibly need, even including a COM
plete saw mill outfit to furnish lumber for
the work. Mr.. Thompson is evidently
meeting with deserved appreciation for his
ability, as he would not otherwise have
secured his warrant as sergeant, and es-
pecislly have had as much inspecting of
material as he has had to do. He has
many friends In Owosso who hope that he
will have an opportunity to win shoulder
straps before he leaves the service. Mr..
Thompson expects that the work at the
Ladrones will take from six months to a
year. and that there will then be considera-
BILE more work to attend to at the Philli-
pines.

Government Hog Cholera Cure.

The national Department of Agricul-
ture has been experimenting with cures
for hog cholera and swine plague. DR.,
Salmon, of the Bureau of Animal Indus
try, reports that a compound serum with
which experiments were made last year
saved S2.S per cent. Of the hogs in eight
herds, Notwithstanding the fact that in
one case the owner persistently neglected
to follow instructions.
In describing the treatment DR.. Sal
mon says:
The serum is obtained in the same
manner as that of the anti-toXin that Is
used for diphtheria. A horse or COW is
inoculated with the germs day after day
until no effect is apparent. It's veins are
then tapped, few drops of its blood
injected under the skin of healthy hogs
and it has the same effect as a preven-
tive of cholera that vaccination has in
smallpox. CuTiously enough, the culti-
vation of the serum does not injure the
horse or the COW, and the animal can be
used over and over again every year
until it becomes aged, provided it Is
given plenty of those forms of fodder
that supply and strengthen the blood
A single horse or COW will produce 1000
doses of serum year"
The same authority estimates that
S1O0,000,000 per year will hardly cover
the losses from hog cholera. The treat
ment can undoubtedly be administered
by intelligent farmers without profess
sional aid and the cost is about 10 cents
per head only one dose being required,

Great is DANTE
The Young Magician is at
the Head of the Class.
Neat and Finished-Eas Some Re-
narkabIe New Illusions.
Best Numbers.

II would be impossible to commend
or praise too highly the performance
of Dante, the magician who opened
his Honolulu season at the Opera
House last evening. 1t is certain that
he will have large audiences for the
remainder of his stay. There was a
fair house last evening.
The most striking thing about this
show is that a man so young as Dante
should be able to distance all the old
performers in the line. There is a fine
career ahead of this clever mystic from
America. He has a number of new
tricks or illusions devised or contriv-
ed by himself The old acquaintance
on the program seemed quite fresh as
given by Dante He has all the charm
of personality of Heller or Hermann
and in his work gets closer to the
realms of the marvellous than any OF
the men with whom he can be COM
pared.
Dante excelIed last evening in many
things. There was not a dull instant
from the beginning to the end. His
stage settings are beautiful and his
assistants DO not intrude. SO far as
one may be able to judge from this
view point, Dante is the premier in the
ranks of magicians. He is a fine actor.
This was shown in The Beggar's
Dream
Perhaps the best things on the pro
gram were IAN Asiatic Miracle Sim
| la Seance and the marvellous bicyclist.
In the seance all were mystifed be-
yond expression IF it is trickery;
it is wonderful trickery." Mile. Ed
munda's bicycle ride through the air
was a pretty and puzzling thing. The
| Asiatic Miracle was the best cabinet
trick ever seen here and nothing bet
ter has ever been seen anywhere.
Dante is great and will be decided
favorite here. He is now on account
of his youth, originality and success
in a class by himself and his tour
through the Orient should be tri-
umph.
A performance will be given again
! tomorrow evening and on Saturday
evening there will be a complete
change of program. A matinee will
be given Saturday afternoon.
The Honolulu residents who knew
M. B. Curtis, manager for Dante, in
other days can understand after see
ing Dante why Curtis, who has always
been money maker, quit the stage to
manage magician. Dante would be
a fortune for the most inexperienced
manager and in the hands of man
like Curtis will prove a Yeritable bon

EYES CAN KILL.

A prominent lawyer in this city adj
mitted he had no idea that all his
nervousness, loss of memory, sleep
Iessness and other consequent disOr-
deTs of mind and body were due to
eye strain.
Sleep is impossible if the nerves are
not at rest. The nerves rule the body.
Eye troubles are often the result of
shattered nerves and stomach disOr-
ders. If you cannot sleep, it's prob
ably due to your eyes!
