Tea Drinking.

Tea is aE agreeable stimulant, quicken
ing intellectual operations, removing
headache and fatigue and promoting cheer
fulness and sense of well being. A cup
Of tea now and again Is n most refreshing
and excellent thing, but when 1t is uss1
TO excess the digestive and nervous sys-
TENS are especially affected. There Is no
doubt that there aro cases of dyspepsia
caused by the inordinate Use of strong tea.
and 1t is also matter Of common observa-
tion that slecplessness, palpitation of the
heart and nervous irritability often follow
the prolonged and excessive use OF this
beverage. People who drink tea TO excess
are TO be found i'm all classes of society,
and the fact should be impressed upon
such persons that tea Is not food, and
cannot, therefore, without risk 10 health,
be substituted for articles OF diet which
form both flesh and bone.-New Yorh
Ledger.

Walls OF Burning Building Bury Large
Number In an Alley.
Pittsburg. Feb. 10.-A fire Of mysteri-
Gus origin was discovered about o'clock
last night in the large cold storage plant
of the Chatauqua Lake Ice company.
The building was six-story brick. with
three fire walls, making in reality four
buildings. The ice company had its
plant and storage warehouse on the
lower floors and the Union Storage COM
pany occupied the balance Of the build
ing with merchandise of all descrip-
tions the property Of many merchants
and householders of the city. One OF the
compartments was used as the govern
ment bonded warehouse and contained
about 400 barrels of whisky and alcohol.
Fifty horses belonging to the ice COM
pany were stabbed in one end OF the
building. but were rescued.
The windows OF the block are protected
by iron shutters which could not be
opened, and for this reason the firemen
were badly handicapped, being unable
TO get at the fire properly. At IL rs D. m.
an explosion of whisky occurred which
blew out the Mulberry alley wall with
ttTIlDlt TeSults. Al the tlfne the dlley
was filled with firemen, policemen. news
paper men and others. Many were
caught by the falling wall There are
rumors that at least 25 or 30 men are
still under the debris. Three dead have
been taken out among them Police Cap
tain Berry. The other two bodies are
at the morgue unrecognized as yet
Many people were injured by flying
bricks and beams. and all the ambu-
lances and patrol wagons of the city are
in constant service.
The telegraph and electric lights at the
corner of One Hundred and Thrtieth
and Penn streets fell shortly after the
explosion and killed an unknown man.
Just after the explosion the large
warehouse of w. A. Heevler & Co, di-
rectly opposite the Chautauqua com
pany's building. was ablaze and in
short time was beyond hope OF saving.
AT about 1:15 the fire was gotten under
control. The two large buildings are a
total wreck, and the loss cannot be
much less than s10O0.O0o. Until the
fallen walls have been cleared away,
there can be no certainty as to the num-
Der OF victims.
