DR.. Pierce is a regular graduated and

practical life long experience with all
forms of women's diseases than any other

most marvelously effective remedy for this
purpose in the world.
Suffering women need not hesitate to

Some Believe the Fire Sprung From
'Crime-Noises of shots and struggle
snid TO Have Been Heard Friday Night.
Laurel, June 26. Nearly 5000 visi-
tors were here yesterday to view the
destruction wrought by Saturdays fire.
The scene CT desolation attracted gem
eral sympathy.
The homeless are being cared for by
those who did not suffer and no appeal
has yet been made for outside assist
ance. Steps for rebuilding will be
taken as soon as possible.
Some persons are Of the opinion that
the fire was the outcome of a murder.
| They declare that when the ruins are
searched the oharred remains of a
hu nan being will be- found. The spot
where the pool room stood was roped
off today and big policeman standing
| guard allowed no ono to approach.
| Several persons say they heard u
struggle in the pool room late Friday
night, and that pistol shots were fred.
| An aged man known as "Unole
George" VINO slept near the room. de-
clares positively that he heard three
/! pistol reports and the cries OF man
issuing from the room. He dressed hur-
riedly and ran downstairs only to see
two mon rush from the room and run
down toward the river. This was the
lust seen of them.
| Soon flames burst from the room and
in an incredibly short time the build
| ing COLLAPSED. Owing to tho great eS-
citement caused by the fire no legal in
| yestigation has yet been made, but the
authorities will investigate these re-
ports. The citizens generally take no
stock in the story and believe that the
fire was OF accidental origin.

CITIZENS DEMAND REDRESS
Charges Preferred Against an
American Minister.
SAY HE FAILED TO PROTECT THEM
When Oppressed In Honduras
and Guatemala. IS


New Orleans, La, June 27. -B. B.
Pears, the brother of Frank Pears,
who was killed by sentry in San
Pedro, Spanish Honduras, January
3lst, and whose killing was made the
subject of official inquiry by the
United States, reached New Orleans
last night. Mr.. Pears alleges that
United States Minister Hunter has
done nothing in the matter. Pears
will again press the case at Washing
ton. Pears was refused permission by
the Hondurean authorities to disinter
the body of his brother.
4 John B. Richards and W. HI. Harris,
American citizens, have also reached
this city, having been elected from
Guatemala by the government Of that
country. The men claim they discov-
cred gold mine in the province Of
Zacapa, where they washed out SIT,
worth of gold in an hour. They went
to Zacapa to have their claim recorded
and were Immediately warned by the
authorities that they must leave. the
country. Instead they went back to
their claim. On june 18th, they al
lege, troops were sent after them.
Richards was arrested, he says, and
taken to Zacapa, where he was thrown
into filthy prison. He notified Min
ister Hunter, but two days later, he
alleges he was taken to the train at the
end of rope and carried to Port
Barrios. At Port Barrios, Richards
says, he was imprisoned for two days
without food. Then he was put aboard
steamer and his fare paid to this
country. He found Harris on the same
ship.

with the Guatemala Central railroad.
While working on tie contract, it is
said, he harbored the party Of Ameri-
cans known as the "Kansas City fill
busters" and incurred the displeasure

Special Correspondence Of Gazette and journal
Laurel, June ga destructive fire.
the most disastrous that has ever
occurred in this town, broke out here
this morning about lilo o'clock, in a
billiard and pool room near the Laurel
House. When the fire was discovered
1t had gained considerable headway.
A brisk wind was blowing and before
the building had been consumed fires
we're seen to break out in several other
buildings. There being no fire COM
panies or engines here, the town was
soon at the mercy of the flames, and
practically nothing could be done other
than attempt to move goods to place
of safety.
Finally. before 2 o'clock, it was
deemed advisable to send for outside
help and engines from Pocomoke City,
Salisbury and Wilmington were sent
for. From the latter city the engines
OF the Weccacoe and Phoenix fire. COM
panies we're sent to the scene. They
reached Laurel at 6 o'clock and at 8. Is
o'clock had the flames under control.
AT noon the fire was completely OK
tinguished and the firemen were await
ing transportation to their homes.
The total number of buildings CON
sumed is estimated at rs, including
the two hotels, the bank building. the
postoffice, two drug stores, nearly all
the businesshouses and the homes Of
the most wealthy residents of the
place.
No casualties have been learned
although it is reported that one negro
employed at the Cannon House is
missing. 1t is thought that he will
turn up shortly.
The total loss will exceed 5000, 900.

Father wheIaa Assigned TO sayv,lle.

The Rev. John |. Whelan, who was
recently ordained to the priesthood at
Brooklyn, and who had his first solemn
mass in st. Mary's R. G. Church on
Sunday week, has been assigned to the
church at SayvIlle, Long Island. and
will leave for his post on today.
During his stay in Wilmington, the
young priest has been most cordially
received by his old school mates and
friends. In speaking with one of them
the other clay, he said he owed much
to the Hamilton Debating Coterie, of
which he is member, for the interest
that organization had taken in his
recitations. Ii had served TO give him
an incentive to improve himself in that
line.
