SERIOUS FIRE IN PHILADELPHIA.
One Fireman Drowned, Another Is
 Missing and Two Go to Hospital.

Philadelphia. December 6.-One fireman was drowned, another is missing and two others were taken to a hospital overcome by smoke as the result of the fire which broke out on the Boston and Philadelphia Steamship company's Saxon early this morning The steamship lies in twenty feet of water at the foot of Pine street burned to the waters edge.
 The dead fireman is William Seville, who went into the hold of the vessel to fight the flames. Before he could reach the deck of the Saxon the vessel gave lurch and Seville was caught in the rush of water and drowned. An other fireman who was in the hold is missing, and it is feared he too was drowned. All other firemen have been accounted for.
 The fire was not extinguished until g o'clock this morning. Divers are in the hold of the vessel searching LOT the bodies of Seville and the other fireman. It is not known how the fire originated. The loss of the Saxon is about $50, ,OOO. She came in yesterday afternoon and had dls- charged nearly all of her cargo. The Saxon was in the regular line of Phila- delphia, Providence and Fall River. She was built in 1862 and had net tonnage of 93S and gross tom age of 1293. She was 200 feet long. thirty feet beam and eighteen and half feet deep. The Saxon was owned by the Boston and Philadel- phia Steamship company. with headquar- ters In Boston.

GIANT GUN A FAILURE.
Ordnance Officers Take Little Stock
 in the Monster Weapon.

Special to the Times Democrat.
 Washington, December At ;s a note- worthy fact that ordnance officers of the army take no stock whatever in the mon- ster sixteen-inch gun which is soon to be tried at Sandy Hook. In fact, they de- scribe it as a military white elephant. It will be tested as soon as Ihe ammuni- ton for the trial is ready, and, after ward, the momentous question of it's dis position will be taken up. No decision has yet been reached ss to the best place to mount the big weapon.
 It is understood that the officers of the ordnance department propose to furnish a disappearing carriage for the big weapon, but the engineers say that it is hardly practicable to build a carriage of this type large enough to accommodate the sixteen-inch gun.
 '"rhe ordnance officers" said one en- gineer today, irreye.ently, think they C uld mocnt the moon on a disappearing csrriage and get a rise and fall with it without any trouble whatever. It has taken so many years to build the sixteen inch gun that it is really obsolete before it has fired a single shot. T he rapid-fre gun of medium size calibre is the weapon of today both for the navy and the coast defense system.
 "All energies are being bent to produce high-muzale velocity. We are now build- ing a disappearing carriage to stand the shock of a six-inch rifle fired at yeloc- ity of 3G00 feet per second. A six-inch sun of that speed would actually be more powerful than the ten-inch gun of a few years ago. The advance in the strength of guns has been very rapid. and is still going ahead.

RIOT AT UNION MEETING.
One Man Seriously Wounded and a

New York, December 6.-One man was seriously wounded and a score of per sons have been badly bruised and beat en in a small riot that followed a meet ing of the iron workers and bridge mems union in this city.
 During the free fight engaged in by over 200 men Albert Connolly was shot in the side. He was taken to the hospital where, 1t was said. his injuries were serious.
 Policemen Bullman and Farnum were roughly handled before the arrival of re- Inducements.
 The fight is said to have started in an argument over the nomination of one of the members for president.
 Two tickets were put in the field. The police say one of the candidates started his campaigning at once by ordering a barrel of beer and inviting all of the members to drink There were about 25O members of the union and 1t is said over 200 remained to accept the invita-

IS A SERIOUS MATTER.
The Most Serious and Fatal Diseases
 A=lse Eron. Indigestion.


 Chronic indigestion of dyspepsia, while a very common trouble, has for some time been looked upon by able physicians as serious thing, and that no time should be lost in treating it properly at the start, because recent researches have shown that the most serious, fatal and ineurable diseases have their origin In simple dys- pepsia or indigestion.
 Diabetes is simply one form or indlges- ton, the sugar and starehy food not De- ing assimilated by the digestive organs. In Brights disease the albumen IS not properly assirnilated.
 While consumption and dyspepsia are twin diseases, and it is beyond question that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil Tor the seeds of consumption. But the trou- ble has been to find a remedy that could be depended upon to cure dyspepsia- as 1t Is notoriously obstinate and difficult to cure,
 This has been the question which has puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike, until the question was solved three years ago by,the appearance of new discovery in the medical world known as Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets, which 1t was elalmed was a certain reliable cure for every form of stomach trouble.
 Physicians however, would not accept such statements without first giving the new remedy many tests and carefully observing results.
 For three years the remedy has been thoroughly tested in every section of the country and with surprising and satis- factory results.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can be hon. estly claimed to be a specific, radical, lasting cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too much bile, undue fullness or pressure after eat ing and similar symptoms resulting from disordered digestion.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets were not placed before the public until this three years trial left no doubt as to their value and they have recently been placed in the trade and. can be found on sale at all druggists at the nominal price of 50 cents per package.
 No extravagant claims are made for the remedy, 1t will not cure rheumatism, pneumonia, typhoid fever nor anything but just what it is claimed to cure and that is every form of stomach trouble. No dieting is necessary, good wholesome 1 food and plenty of 1t and you may rest l. hassured that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest it. Druggists claim for it that it is a pleasure to recommend it to dys- peptics, because it gives such universal satisfaction

DISCOVERY OF COFFEE. Made by an Arabian Shepherd.

Coffee was first discovered in the sixth century by ar Arabian shepherd who hav- ing observed the goats of his flock skip about and display other signs of intoxi- cation after eating the ccffee berry, cons cluded to try its effects on himself, and thus discovered It's eXhilarating property
 This discovery proved the poor shep- herds undoing, for he indiscriminately used large quantities, green, for its ex- hiliarating effect and soon died, poisoned by its use.
 In the sixteenth century, it was intro- duced into France, and was used so strong ard excessively, particularly by the Parisians that it was found to injure olilSe the complexion and digestion. This discovery prevented its general introduc- tion into other European countries for the next century.
 Since that period, it's growth has grad uaIly spread through the civilized world despite the fact that rain and destruction fellow its path, dyspepsia having been herdly known before it's introduction. It is nerve stimulant' and narcotic poi son, and though in TO sense a food is used for its stimulating principle, Caf feine, which excitas the nerves unnatur- elly and wastes the reserve force of the bcdy. Coffee drives the nerves for a time stimulating them beyond their natural function, and using up all their reserve force. After the first effects are past comes breaking down of the nerve cen ters and general nervous derangement Following this in many but not all cases is a long train of misery, among which the principal symptoms are dryness in mouth and throat, headache, biliousness, pains in the stomach or abdomen, pain in eyes and head, loss of appetite, dyspep- sia and so on through a lOrg, long list but the one cause of all the different symptoms is the same.
 The nerves have been broken down; their reserve force have gone. Many of the symptoms of poisoning are-extreme nervousness, restlessness, anguish of mind and heart, excessive relaxation of body and brain, gloomine inaOinty to think correctly sleeplessness at night, droHsi- ness in the morning, etc,

An Interesting Parallel.

 In Talk With Tired People," by Margaret F. Sangster. which appeared in a recent periodical. the writer says. My own feeling is that Charles Lamb s idea of heaven--to lie all day on a sofa and read novels--was not so fiippant as 1t sounds"
 It may be interesting to our readers to notice that the same sentiments is att tributed to Gray in one of the famous essays of old Abram Hayward. In his essay on Alexandre Dumas, the author says: ITO lie.on a sofa and read eternal new novels of Marivaux or Crebillion was the beau ideal, the day dream of Gray, one of the choicest and most fastidious minds of the eighteenth cen tury, and what is there of Marivaux or Crebillon to compete in attractiveness with the wondrous fortunes of Monte Christo or the chivalrous adventures of a D'Artagnan?'

of course we must obey orders from such source. But why once day only? The last user of the phone may have deposited disease germs in the mouth- piece Is 1t not necessary to scrub after each user?
 Then there are the doorknobs-terribie lurking places of infection. Should we not have these scrubbed as soon as use has, possibly made them deadly? And the straps and handrails of street cars- it Is an old story that these are thick with bacterial colonies. If this fear of possible and impossible infection from invisible sources gets strong enough we may get as sacred as the Salemites in the days of witchcraft.

 Is the old time "courtin' " to be abol- ished, along with other old fashion ed ways, as too slow for this fast age?
 At least one Jersey City swain has found working late at night and most of Sunday incompatible with the leisure real courting demands, and after a brief struggle to combine the two has been compelled to explain the situation to his fiancee and release her from her en- gagement to marry him. He felt, he says 1t would be unfair ito marry a woman who would be obliged to sit alone at home nights and Sundays while he was handling the cleaver in the butcher s shop.

The stomach controls the man. It governs
him both physically and mentally. The man
Is just what his stomach makes him. When
the stomach 10 right the man Is all right;
he feels good, he ia happy, he is cheerful, the
world to him is all sunshine.
When the stomach IL wrong the man IL
all wrong. He is out of sorts, he is nervous,
he is irritable, he is gloomy and despondent,
he is cranky. His general disposition Is
such that nobody wants tc have anything
to do with him.
The stomach Is the organ on which the
whole human system must depend for sub
sistence and existence. If the stomach
fails, then what is to become of the rest Of
the body? Where does the force OF life
come from? Doesn't it come largely from the
foodp You know that II you stop eating, you
will die. But the mere eating OF food does
not give life. Food can no more give life with.
out digestion than coal can give heat with
out combustion. 1t Is not what we eat but
what we digest that keeps up the motor

Undigested food is not only useless but

which meet for the nomination Of al
dermen and school commissioners it is
probable that there will be very little
excitement. But at Miles Hall, where
tine nomination Of a candidate for

likely be warm fight. Let US hope
it will be friendly one, devoid of
any of the disaereeable features Of any
former feud. Every voter should he

The Bennington Banner says:
"ThCse who take counsel OF their
hopes rather than o. their reason have
been talking of the Rutland ra lroad's
assistance In bull ding the proposed
line from Rutland to Montpelier,
thence to Hardwick and Newport.
The politicians, quick to grasp an in
ference, have allowed the rumor to go
uncontra icted because it might help
Doom a candi date for governor. Gen.
tlemen, please do not hold your
breath until a Vermont railroad para
llels itself, for you might die for want
of air. Better stick to the original
idea Of trolley line from the Capital
to Newport. None other is ever like
iy to be built" This is probably
true SO far as anyone in Bennington
knows, and it is equally true that no
one in Bennington will be likely to
lend any assistance to such a project.
