FIREMEN CRUSHED TO DEATH
Three Killed by Falling Debris
at a Philadelphia Fire.
DEATH CAUSED BY SUFFOCATION
Five Others Injured, Two OF
Them Seriously.
Disaster Attends Firemsn Who Were
Working at Fire In Philadelphia, This
MorninG-Buried Under Mass of Falling
Iron and Stone. W.

Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 17.-At
about 3 O'Clock this morning, while
about dozen firemen were at work in
the ruins Of the store of the Emerson
Shoe Co., which was burned out in
last nights big fire, mass of iron
and stone crashed down from the upper
floors, burying the men beneath it.
Three OF the firemen were killed. They
were: William Chance, hoseman;
Hugh Duffy, George w. Stinle.
The body Of Chance was recovered,
but the Others are still in the ruins.
When the three men were first buried
under the debris they answered the
shouts of their companions, but the
answering cries soon ceased and the
unfortunates undoubtedly met death
by suffocation.
Five other fremen were injured, two
seriously, by the falling debris.

it was declared to have been passed,

take was promptly discovered, and the
vote BY which the bill was lost was

Who does not know women and young

Who does not know women and young
girls who are continually in tears?
Who always see the dark side? Who
have frequent fits of melancholy with
out any apparent cause? The intelli-
gent physician will know that it is
some arrangement Of the complicated
and delicate feminine organs. The
young girl suffers, bodily and mentally,
in silence. There is undue weariness,
unexpected pain, unreasonable tears
and fits Of temper. DIR. Pierce's Fav.
orlte Prescription exerts wonderful
power over woman's delicate organism.
1t is an invigorating tonic and is
specific for the peculiar weaknesses,
irregularities and painful arrangements
OF woman. Careless, easy going doctors
frequently treat their women patients
Tor biliousness, nervousness, DYSPEPSIA,

sickness is in the organs distinctly

CHURCH DESTROYED BY FIRE.
st, Johns Roman Catholic Church In PhiIa-
delphia, Kavaged by Flames This Morn-


lug.
Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 17.--St.
Johns Roman Catholic Church was
totally ruined this morning by fire and
water. The parochial residence adj.
joining the church was destroyed last
night by the fire which Quilted num-
Der of stores on Market and Thirteenth
streets, and it is believed that sparks
from this fire had lodged under the
church roof and had there smouldered
after the former fire had supposed to
have been wholly checked.
Shortly before 6 O'Clock flames burst
through the church roof, and, though
the firemen at once turned their atten-
tion to and conquered the blaze, the
roof quickly fell in and the handsome
interior of the church was completely
ruined by the wreck and water. The
walls remain intact, as does also the
altar and the large organ, but water
has rendered the latter valuelessr
The loss is estimated at about $780,
600. The building was one of the Oldest
church edifices in the city.
