TWO FIRE ALARMS.
Department Called sunday but Water
Not Required.

The fire company bad a peck of
business Sunday morning shortly
after eight O'Clock and things became
metropolitan with rush. An alarm
was sent in from the b & W. station
and as the wagon was leaving the
door of the truck house a second
alarm was sent in for the Schwartz
department store on High Avenue
West. The department was favored
in the fact that the two fires were in
the same locality and separated from
each other by the distance of only a
block.
The lightning that played about SO
generously Sunday came into the
B. & w. on the telegraph wires and
caused the trouble. The FIRE caught
in the old files of papers and records
stored in the loft of the station house.
Quite a blaze was started and two
tanks Of chemical were consumed in
controlling the flames. The fire lads
put out the fire, however, and then
went to see how the Schwartz place
was getting along. Itwas found here
that gas pipe and wire had caused
trouble and small hole had been
burned in the ceiling. No serious
damage was caused at either place.
Tree struck by Lightning.
The bright fash of lightning fol-
lowed by q sharp peal Of thunder,
about ten O'Clock Sunday morning,
struck and completely splintered a
tree on the east side Of D Street be-
tween Second and Third Avenues.
people in the vicinity were
shocked, but no one hurt.

There is no doubt of the Doctors earn.
estness in making his claim, and the
remarkable cures that he is daily eff

strongly. His theory which he adj
vances is one of reason and based on
sound experience in a medical prac-

to try his remarkable Elixir of Life"
as he calls it, for he sends it free, to
anyone who is a sufferer, in sufficient
quantities to convince it's ability to
cure, so there is absolutely no risk TO
run. Some of the cures cited are very
remarkable, and but for reliable wit
nesses would hardly be credited. The
lame have thrown away crutches and
walked about after two or three trials
of the remedy. The sick, given up by
home doctors, have been restored to
their families and friends in perfect
health. Rheumatism, neuralgia, stom-
ach, heart, liver, kidney, blood and
skin diseases and bladder troubles dis
appear as by magic. Headaches, back.
aches, nervousness, fevers, consump-
tion, coughs, colds, asthma, catarrh,
bronchitis, and all affections Of the
throat, lungs or any vital organs, are
easily overcome in space of time
that is simply marvellous.
Partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia,
dropsy, govt scrofula and piles are
quickly and permanently removed.
1t purifies the entire system, blood and
tissues, restores normal nerve power,
circulation and a state of perfect
health is produced at once. To the
doctor all systems are alike and equal

Life" Send for the remedy to-day.
1t is free to every sufferer. State what
you want to be cured of, and the sure
remedy for it will be sent you free by

BLOOD HOUNDS WORK.
Tracked Goods Stolen From Ankeny
STORE 90 Polk Gay.

Des Moines, May si,--Another
chance was given the blood hounds
Friday to show their ability TO track
criminals, and they did good work.
The store OF kaufman 4 Lewis was
robbed Thursday night at Ankeny,
ten miles north OF Des Moines. The
theft amounted to about 800.
Word was telephoned to Des
Moines early yesterday morning, and
the trainer, George MRxHeld, went
TO Ankeny on the first train. The
blood hounds were taken to the
store and given the scent. They
struck of across the country ct once
and headed for Polk City. About
two miles north Of Ankeny they came
across a necktie stolen from the
store. This proved conclusively that
the dogs were on the right trail.
They continued with the trail until
Polk City Junction was reached,
when the trail was lost. As it cross
ed the railroad tracks there the sup
position is that the burglars took an
early train there either to Des Moines
or to the north. The dogs worked
finely and the Ankeny people were
thoroughly satisfied that they fol-
lowed the trail correctly.
