100000.

New York, March 21.-Hardman, Peck
& Co., piano manufacturers suffered a
loss of 100000 or possibly more by the
destruction last night by fire of their
plant located at West Forty-eighth
street and the North river. The fire
started from some unknown cause in
the packing room, which is the three
story part of the big factory There it
quickly spread throughout the entire
building. The roof of the building fell
in soon afterward, and gave rise to the
report that there had been an explosion.
Just west of the three-story building
which was about 100 feet in length and
right on the river front stood a frame
stable. On the roof of this We're a
number of firemen. When the walls
fell a lot of debris fell on the roof of the
stable, injuring one fireman and one
spectator
From the first mentioned building the
fire spread to the firms five-story
structure and wrecked the upper por-
ton of it. The loss was large because
of the valuable machinery and woods
in the burned buildings.

WILL SECOND RUHLIN.
Lanky Bob Will Be in the Akron
Giants Corner.

New York, March 21.-Bob Fitzsin-
mons will be in a twenty-fOur-foot ring
before he engages Jim Jeffries in the
championship match next May. But it
will not be in the capacity of prin-
cipal in a punching bee, but as a second
to Gus Rubin in the latter's six-round
affair with Peter Maher, which will be
decided in Industrial hall, Philadelphia,
on Friday night. Fitzsimmons has been
helping Gus get into condition for the
bout, and the lanky fellow is so anxious
to see the Akronite show to good adj
vantage that he will tender him advice
during the contest.
Maher is not in the least put out by
this show of partiality on the part of
Fitzsimmons, and says he viii beat
Rubin no matter who is behind him.
He is working hard with that end in
view, and says he is just aching for
the time to come when he can get an
other punch at his old opponent
Ruhlins condition is good. too, and to
say the least, the bout should be one of
the best heavy weight events decided
hereabouts since Mr.. Horizons boxing
bill was put out of business.

MUsH MALADIEs.

For years we have had tea drinlxer' s
disorder, coffee drinkers complexion, and
now we have the mush malady or starch
indigestion (amylaceous dyspepsia). This
meal mush cracked wheat and other
pasty foods which do not digest well but
ferment, forming acids and poisons
which frritate the small intestine longest
the stomach and liver, impoverish the
blood, irritate the nerves, weaken the
muscles and sap the vital energies, in
ducing exhaustion, pain and disease. The
prevention and the remedy is to use that
appetizing food, Toasted Wheat Flakes,
sweetened with Malt Honey. Each flake
is thoroughly cooked and toasted so that
the starch is turned to dextrine and is at
once digestible. Each package of the
genuine bears a picture of the Battle
