FIRE AT TUNKHANNOCK.
A Disastrous Blaze Sweeps a Por-
ton of the Business Section-other
Matters of Interest.

Fire broke out in the Gray block
at the corner of Warren and Tioga
streets between and 3 o'clock yester-
day Tuesday morning. An alarm was
turned in about three, and when the
department responded the fire was well
under way. 1t had evidently been
smouldering for some time. After ahcut
three hours work the fire was under
control The block is occupied by tho
Following firms: G. A. Hungerford &
Son, general merchandise on thc cor
ner; next to them is Il. b. Grenville's
drug store, and next that is NJ. j.
Leonard, bakery and confetti merry.
1ne fire originated in the cellar CT
either the drug store or bakery ami
followed the stairways up to the roof.
The stock of the bakery is Il complete
loss as well as the household goods of
Mr.. Leonard, who occupied ro Jnis over
his store. His insurance was 5000. The
stock in the drug store will probably
be total loss, with 81 200 insurance.
Hungerford a. Son had just received 4
shipment of new goods for the spring
trade, and was greatly la nagei by
smoke. His insurance was frcm $500
to $1,000. The upper floors IF the last
two buildings were occupied by iaOrge
PhillipsOn, Miss Caroline Gray, the law
office of Asa S. Keller, esq, and ,he
dental parlors of DR.. G. II. O'Neill.
Their damage was principally from
smoke and is covered by insurance.
There was an insurance On the block
of $4,000, which will in all probability
cover the loss

Monday to Marcus ]. Adams, Of Forks
ton township, and Iresee Furman, Of
Mehoopany.
The need of a better fire alarm sys-
tenn for the borough, and also the ad-
ditional apparatus, which the depart
ment has been asking for for some
time, was plainly shown by the fire Of
Tuesday morning. The outlying parts
of the town in all directions failed 10
hear the alarm. The firemen were able
to put only three streams on the fire
on account of lack of nozzles. 1t is TO
be hoped that the council will see the
necessity of these things.

of Laceyville was offered for probate

menCcd to have an extremely tired WORKOUT
feeling and kept getting worse" writes Mrs.
w. 5. Lindsey, Of Chetopa, Labette Co.,
kans. Almost everything ate would sour
on NV stomach and cause diarrhea, and
had such heavy feeling in my right side,
Just opposite my stomach, that I could not
lie on my left side. 1t seemed that the
weight in nv right side was tearing some
thing loose whenever l would try to lie on
my left side, and then / commenced to have
such a terrible pain in my stomach and right
side. It would shift from my stomach to my
side and then back again, and every time the
pain would get harder, and it would last
hours at time. Nothing would ease me in
the least except laudanuni, and I would have
to take two or three doses before that would
help. Nobody knows what suffered. In
the first place, these spells would be two or
three weeks apart, but at last they came on
regularly every other day. They would COM
me nee about eight o'clock in the morning and
last until nine or ten O'Clock at night. Tried
three different doctors; one said it was ma
laria and gave me so much Calomel that it
almost killed me. Another doctor said it
was my liver; his medicine helped me for a
short time and then the trouble came back
harder than ever. The other doctor said, L
think I know what ails you, but his medi-
cine did not help at all felt that my time
was short, and / was perfectly discouraged.
l could not bear to think of leaving my little
children, but was SO down-hearted and weak
| could hardly crawl around. Was in bed
most Of the time. Mymother said, TRY DR..
K. V. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery;
others recommend it, and notice his adyer-
tisement i'll everything pick up My hus-
band bought bottle. l did not feel much
better after taking the first bottle, but my
husband bought another and said, I'VE will
give it good trial Before l had taken all
of the second bottle felt better and COM
ulenced to work little. l have taken six
bottles, and now ! am able TO do all of my
work. Am never troubled with my stomach
or side any more. God has surely blessed
your medicine and recommend it to every

Chamberlain,s Cough Remedy.

This remedy is intended especially for
coughs, colds, Group, whooping cough
and influenza. 1t has become famous
for its cures of these diseases, over a
large part OF the civilized world The
most hattcring testimonials have been

works; of the asgravating and per-
sistent coughs it has cured, of severe
colds that have yielded promptly to it's
soothing effects, and Of the dangerous
attacks of Group it has cured, often
