SECOND DAY OF THE
 PRlZE-FIoHERs' TRIAL

Cincinnati, February 6-The second day of the Jeffries-Ruhlin prize fight case on court brought no indications as to when the hearings would be concluded. The State is trying to show that the fights scheduled for this city February 15 are a public nuisance under the provisions of the Ohio law, and on that ground permanent in- junction is asked for.
 The promoters of the fight and their coun- sel are contesting every movement made by the State, and ii. Judge Hollister refuses to grant a restraining order the Saengerfest Athletic Association announces that it will proceed to pull off the boxing contest un- der the permit of Mayor Fleischmann, not withstanding the radical action taken by Governor Nash and other State officials.
 The sale of seats, the training at the quarters of Jeffries, Ruhlin, Martin and Children, the work of arranging boxes and seats at the big hall and all the other prep arations for the event one week from next Friday night have been proceeding today as usual It Is evident that everything will be completed and in readiness before de- cision by Judge Hollister shall be rendered.
 Fenton Lawson, director and secretary in both the musical and athletic associations, was the principal witness today. Mayor Fleischmann testified as to the conditions under which he granted the permit for the fight, and who held that he was justified in so doing, as he gave permit for box ing contest that would come within the laws of Ohio. sbss

All over this country are hundreds OF peO-

and enduring needless suffering. The RENE

for dyspepsia have multiplied SO rapidly
that they are becoming as numerous as the
leaves Of the forest, and YET dyspepsia con
tinues to flourish in spite Cf them all This
is due 10 the fact that the cause of dyspepsia
is not recognized IS catarrh
If there is a remedy in the whole ranEs
OF medical preparations that Is in every par

is Peruna. This remedy is well nigh Irwin

In their belief the effects of poisons
are due wholly to the presence in them
of malevolent spirits or demons, which
enter the body of the victims and de-
strey life.
The ShOShOne and Bannock Indians
state that the proper way to poison ar
rows, as formerly practiced by them, is
to secure a deer and cause it to be Bit

which the deer is killed and the meat
removed and placed in hole in the
ground. When the mass has become
putrid the arrow points are dipped into
it. The Clallams of Puget Sound, used
to make arrow points of copper, which
were afterward dipped in sea water
and permitted to corrode. This was

The Doctors dilemma

I'VE travelled nearly all over Europe"
she replied.
Il wondered whom she meant by ''we."
She had never used the plural pronoun
before, and l thought of that odious
woman in Guernsey-an unpleasant rec
objection.
We had wandered back to the opening
where Tardif had left us. The rapid cur
rent between US and Breckhou was run
ming in swift eddies. Olivia stood near
me; but a sort of chilly difidence had
crept over me, and l could not have ven
tured to press too closely to her, or to
touch her with my hand.
How have you been content to live
hereY" | asked.
This year in Sark has saved me-" she
answered softly.
What has it saved you from?" I in
quired, with intense eagerness. She turn
ed her face full upon me, with a world
of reproach in her grey eyes.
''Dr. Martin" she said, why will you
persist in asking me about my former
life? Tardif never does. He never inn
plies by word or look that he wishes to
know more than l choose to tell. l can
not tell you anything about it."
Just then my ear caught for the first
time a low boom-boOm, which had proba-
bly, been sounding through the caves for
some minutes.
Good heavensr' l calculated.

that, though there might be a little risk,
there was no paralyzing danger. | had

where we were now standing. there was
no chance of leaving the caves except as
we had come to them, by a boat; for on
each side a crag ran like a spur into
the water There was not moment to
lose. Without word, l snatched up
Olivia in my arms, and ran back into
the caves, making as rapidly as l could
for the long. straight passage.
Neither did Olivia speak a word or
utter a cry. We found ourselves in Il
low tunnel, where the water was be-
ginning to flow in pretty strongly. l set
her down for an instant, and tore off my
coat and waistcoat. Then l caught her

DIE In AN EXPLOSION.
MORE THAN A SCORE KILLED IN
PHILADELPHIA.
Five Buildings Blown to Atoms in
Mysterious Way-Inmates and Per-
sons in Street Buried Under the Ruins
Search for Dead in Debris.

Death came to from twelve to twenty
persons and injury to fifty more as the
result of an explosion, supposed to have
been caused by gasoline, which complete
" wrecked an entire block of buildings
on Locust street above Tenth, in Phila-
delphia. Five structures were demolished
and one was badly damaged. The num-
Der of persons in the buildings at the time
OF the disaster is estimated at fifty.
The buildings and their occupants We're
as follows: No. zoos, Housman's pool
and billiard rooms; No. 1910. Morris Ro-
senthafs secondhand clothing store, oc-
cupied by RoSenthal, his wife and FIVE
children; No. 1912, William Jones res
taurant, occupied by Jones and about If
teen boarders; No. 1014, George McClem-
myS grocery store, occupied by McClem-
my. clerk and servant girl; No. 1016,
Patrick Quigley's grocery store, occupied
by Quigley, his wife, three children and
his uncle; No. 1O1S, Albert Mountains
grocery and meat store, occupied by
Mountain, mother sister and clerk.
The explosion occurred about $50 p.
H. What exploded and how it happened
is not known at this time, but it is be-
lieved to have been a barrel of oil in one
of the three grocery stores. With the
explosion of No. zoos the front walls
of the buildings were blown outward into
the street, while the floors and the roofs
were blown upward and fell straight TO
the ground.
Almost every building within a radius
of two blocks about the scene Of the eX-
plOsion had window panes shattered and
was otherwise damaged. Every building
of the opposite side of Locust street was
more or less wrecked, but none of them
fell.
terrible cry went up from the ruins
the moment the explosion occurred. WOm-
en-, children and men, occupants of the
wrecked houses, could be seen crawling
from the debris, while the cries of others
were heard in the wreckage. From all
the surrounding buildings injured people
came running and many fell into the
street unconscious
To add to the horror fire broke out in
the debris the moment it settled to the
ground, and in less than five minutes the
great pile was burning fercely from end
to esd.
Here and there person was dragged
from the ruins before the fire could reach
the victim, several lives being saved by
this prompt work. When the tiremen
reached the scene the flames had great
Roadway and were gniting the buildings
across the street. The fire, however,
was soon under control and with the ex-
ceptiOn of a small blaze here and there,
was 'eXtinguished in a few minutes.
