had him under control Such was a 1 specimen of the fearlessness of the dead captain, and he always looked up- on his duty unflinchingly
 | Chief Fancher said yesterday morning l that he had noticed the condition of the wall and as soon as he saw 1t he went 1 to Captain Condren and told the officer that he had better look out for the wall and move away from it. ''It was a dangerous spot to be in,' said the chief yesterday, land I appreciated the dan ger to the men underneath. I issued the order to the men to get away from the wall but before the men could move the wall came down.
 Deputy Coroner Pond began an in- vestigation into the death of the fire men yesterday morning. He said he would have no statement to give out in the matter until to-day, as the investi- gation would not be sufficiently ad- vanced.
 Manager S. z. Poli yesterday was very much shocked by the disaster at the fire, and he at once set about ex- pressing his sympathy in a substantial manner. He visited the fire department headquarters and extended there with his expressions of sympathy an offer to give a grand benefit concert for the families of the deceased and injured firemen The fire commissioners, at their meeting yesterday afternoon, men, tioned above, received the following communication from Manager Poli, which is self-explanatory:
 New Haven, Feb. 19, 1901. To the Honorable Board of Fire Com
 missioners:
 Gentlemen: The sad desolation brought to the homes of the fremen by the disaster of this morning, is keenly felt throughout the city. l, in common with other citizens feel a personal loss by the deplorable event. When heard of it this morning I did not go to New York, for although it is my day to do so, I felt that as a citizen of New Ha- ven, it is due these gallant men that we recognize their worth anG the bereave- ment of their families by extending at this time all the consolation it is possi- ble to give.
 While not wishing to intrude sugges- tions I feel impelled to offer on this oc- casion, my services and those that I can command for any occasion that may arise. I will. if it is so desired, give a

FUNERAL OF MRS. IVES

Held Yesterday Afternoon from Her
 Late Home.
 The funeral of Caroline s. Ives, widow of pr. Levi Ives, who was one of New Haven's leading physicians for many years, was held yesterday afternoon from her late residence No. 339 Temple street. The funeral was attended by a very large number of New Haven's well known residents, including large number of the older people of the elty. Mrs. Ives was eighty-fve years of age. The services were conducted by R1v. Dr. Munger, of Ur ted church, and Rev. Dr. b. S. Lines, of St. Paul's, and they were very simple, both at the house and at the grave. The interment was in the Ives plot in the Grove street cemetery. The honorary bearers were Professor Curtis, Professor Williams, Professor Backman and Professor Sanders. The floral tributes were numerous and they included many elegant pieces. The fu- neral arrangements were in charge of Lewis & Maycock.N

A FAR MER'S WIFE
Finds Food that the Children and
 Grown Folks Thrive Upon.

Mrs. Sarah Lessinger, near Stuart. Neb., says: My little girl eight years old, has always been a delicate child, and has not been able to stay in school long at time, for she often tainted and was weak and puny, until last February she had a sick spell, and I began feeding her on Grape-Nuts food.
 I can truthfully say the result has far exceeded my expectations. She is now hearty we'll, and can run and play as other children do. I am trying an experiment this summer on leaving out meat altogether for breakfast and using Grape-Nuts food instead Thus lar we have all been unusually we'll, and my men folks (we are farmers) say that they do not get hungry so quick when they use Grape Nuts food as they used to when they had meat"
 It is profound fact that Grape Nuts food will furnish more nourishment to the system than bread or meat. Anyone can prove the truth of this statement by trial.

Mrs. T. Pelton, 562 St. Anthony ave- nue, St. Paul, Minn., writes: z
 "Peruna has done wonders for me. It has cured my headache and palpitation of the heart; has built up my whole sys- tenn. I cheerfully recommend Peruna to all sufferers afflicted with catarrh. My mother is never without Peruna. When one is tired and generally out of sorts, if Peruna is taken it immediately re- moves that tired feeling."
 Peruna cures catarrh by removing the cause, inflamed mucous membranes.

TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice of n Famous Physician.


 First and foremost, REST. Take care of yourself Your already weakened nerves want rest and must have it. If the attack Is severe, 20 to bed and remain there More fatalities result from neglect of this precaution than from any other cause. Eat sparingly. Your digestive organs are in no condition to take care of larga quantities of food.
 Drink plenty of pure, cold water. It allays the fever, stimulates the kidneys to action and opens up the pores of the skin. Keep the bowels open with Dr. Miles Nerve and Liver Pills.
 Take three doses of pr. Miles Nervine per day, and if you cannot sleep take an extra dose at bed time To further control the fever, and to overcome the peculiar aches and pains of grip, use Dr. Miles Pain Pills. They act quickly and effectually, and no bad effects re- suit from their use. These remedies have been thoroughly tested more than million times, and their efficiency is thoroughly established. They never fail to give relief.
 pr. Miles Remedies can be found at any drug store, and they are sold on a positive guarantee that first bottle or package benefits, or money refunded.

| grand benefit concert for the families of the deceased and injured, in which | the citizens can cooperate with me in testimonial of their grief and regard The services of my artists, my thea ter and anything can do are at the disposal of the fire department entirely free.
 If your honorable board views this proposition favorably arrangements for the concert will be at once commenced by me. Yours very truly, s. E. Poli Early yesterday Walter Leigh, always sympathetic and public spirited, sent a check with a letter to an afternoon pa- per as follows:
 MT. Editor: Enclosed find S1O to start a fund for the families of the firemen who were killed and injured in the fire in Winchester avenue this morning
 Very truly yours, Walter Leigh.
 There were narrow escapes at the fire Before the wall fell there were perhaps fifty men and boys who stood not more than ten feet behind the ill-fated fire men who were handling the deluge nozzle, The crowd saw that the wall was toppling and they scattered away as fast as possible. Having handi- cap of ten feet they didn't share the fate of the firemen. It was quickly ru- mored that one of the civilians, a young man, John Sloan, son of John T. Sloan, the real estate dealer, had been caught, but MT. Sloan soon refuted the rumor.
 Paul Barnett, of the Journal and Courier's staff of reporters, had a nar- TOW escape, being so near the wall when 1t fell that the wall nearly grazed him. and his clothes were covered with dust and fragments of bricks and plaster which fell all around him MT. Sloan mentioned above was assisting Mir Barnett in reporting the fire, and they were standing near together when the wall fell
 Police Sergeant Tighe had a close call He was on the railroad tracks under the wall and had started to stroll away when the warning cry accelerated his movements and placed him in the lucky escape category.

may have catarrh of the pelvic organs"
 The doctor went on to say: 1T have been preaching this doctrine for the last forty years, but there are a vast multi tude of women who have never heard it yet. Catarrh may attack any organ of the body. Women are especially liable to catarrh of the pelvic organs. There are one hundred cases of catarrh of the pelvic organs to one of catarrh of the head. Most people think, because they have not catarrh of the head, they have not catarrh at all. This Is great mis- take, and is the cause of many cases of sickness and death."
