Windows.

Boston, Jan. 29.-Eight persons
dead, three more probably fatally
burned and three seriously hurt in
jumping from windows. and others
more or less hurt, was the result Of a
fire just before this morning in al
italian tenement house on Fleet street
north end. Seven Of the dead are
adults, three of them women, and the
eighth is a child.
Before the fremen got on the scene
two women and one man were seen to
throw themselves from windows of
the third floor to the street below.
After the firemen had succeeded in
subduing the flames they began a
search of the rooms and found eight
bodies. Efforts to revive them were
in vain, for all had inhaled flame and
smoke AMI their bodies in most cases
were blistered by the fierce heat which
they had encountered.

CHEMISTRY IN BUSINESS.
Some idea Briefly Given as to Its
Growing Importance.

Howard G. Parmelee In Success.
n chemist renders very valuable SER
vice to q railroad company-and Incl
dentally to the travelling publicity
protecting his company against poor
grades of steel in boilers and rails. and
poor iron in wheels. Upon his analysis
will depend the selection of water for
boiler purposes, and coal for engines
and blacksmith shops. Paints and oils
are submitted TO him for the purpose
of detracting any adulteratiOn, while
babbitt metal and brass will be accept
ed or rejected according to his analysis.
In short, the public little appreciates
the scientific care taken for it's safety,
and knows little of the varied duties OF
The chemist of Il great railroad conf
pany. In like manner. the work of a
chemist in any great commercial indus
try could be shown to be equally Valu-
able and necessary.
1t might be interesting, at this point,
10 add few of the numerous fakes
and authorizations which the chemist
exposes. Alcoholic liquors are found
masquerading under all sorts of names,
\ "soot consumer" at % cents a pound
may prove to be common salt worth,
black paint" has been found to be two
thirds brick dust a "butter cont
pound" guaranteed to double the out
put of butter turns out to be a WORTH
less digestive ferment--and "freezing
compounds" or 'ice mixtures are un-
satisfactory and expensive experiments
which chemists will advise the unwary
to turn away from. Antimony sulphide
bought in the open market his been
found TO consist mainly of charcoal,and
in the endless list of food products the
chemist may find a fruitful field to
work in, for there it il that adultera-
ton runs riot. These instances, to-
gether with the analyses for poisons,
constitute a class of chemical work In
which the spurious and injurious are
detected in spite of the cleverness Of
imDOStors.
