BIG FIRE IN Def ROIT
One of the American Radiator Company
Plants Destroyed: Loss, $4,000.

Plants Destroyed: Loss, $4,000.
Detroit, April Gone of the two
large plants of the American Radiator
Co., located outside of the city linn
it's, at the junction Of the Belt Line
railway, ON Joseph Campau avenue,
was almost completely destroyed by
fire which started shortly after 10
o'clock last night. After the fire had
burned about two hours three large
buildings were in ruins, namely, the
warehouse, the pattern shop and the
machine shop. Frederick w. Hodges,
manager of the company, estimated
the loss at $15O,OOO, and said it was
fully covered by insurance.
There were between 500 and 600
men employed by the concern who will
be temporarily thrown out of en-
ployment. The cause Of the fire is
unknown, but it appears to have start
ed in the warehouse. The foundry
alone was saved The plant was sit
uated outside of the city limits and
although the Detroit fire department
responded to a call the facilities for
fighting the fire were limited. The two
Detroit plants were a part Of the
radiator combine, whose headquarters
are in Chicago.

Broken Brio a RracS.

Mr.. Major, the famous cement man OF
New York, explains some very interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but great
many do not know why. The simple
reason is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that
one of the elements of his cement costs
1915 pound, and another costs $3.50 a
gallon, while large share of the so call
ed cements and liquid glue upon the
market are rothing more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved in water or citric
acid, and, in some cases. altered slightly
in color and odor by the addition OF
cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents
and twenty five cents bottle, and when
dealer tries to sell substitute you can
depend upon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors cement is as
much as any dealer ought to make on
any cement. And this is doubly true In
view of The fact that each dealer gets his
share Of the benefit of Mr.. Majors ad-
vertising, which now amounts to over
$1,000 a month throughout the country.

Captain and Members OF Shipwrecked
Crew Lose Their Lives in Surf.
Portland, Me-, April 9.-The schoon-
er Wendall Burpee, 10 tons, owned
in St. John, n. B., ana bound there
from New York with a cargo of soft
coal, was wrecked on the Cape Eliza
beth shore. She left Hyannis, and be-
ing caught in the gale, tried to make
Portland harbor. Finding that they
were dangerously near the shore the
captain tried to anchor, but both
chains parted. Then the captain and
his three men abandoned the schOon-
err, but their small boat was swamped
by a breaker and all but the mate
were drowned.
Had they remained on board their
lives would have been saved, as the
schooner cleared the shoals toward
which she was headed, and was driv-
en- high on the beach. The three men
lost were Captain Lewis Marsburg,
aged ~, who has a wife in st. John,
to whom he was married a month ago;
Steward George Foster, aged 25, who
has a wife and two children in st.
John; a seaman, aged 30, who be-
longed in Liverpool, and whose name
is not known. The sole survivor is
Mate John Swanson of st. John, who
clung to the overturned boat until the

Two persistent and enthusiastic

down into their sacred snake khiva pre-
vious to the ceremonies and refused
to be dislodged when the members
of the snake order descended to begin
the ritual and wash the snakes prior
to the dance and the performances
all ceased until we removed ourselves.
Our parleying and proffers of coin de-
layed the dance at least two hours
and not until abandonment Of the
spectacle, implying personal injury to
our party, was threatened would we
relinquish our determination to fol-
low the ceremony from sunrise to
dusk in all its weird secrecy and sol
emnity. 81
The sum Of 500 was rendered the
snake priest to permit our presence.
This was declined without even con-
sideration: and at no time during the
dance, which did not go on until we
had repaired to prescribed distance,
was there flasa of the smallest-sized
coin or piece of money. The Mokis
