A Historic Playhouse burns

The historic Academy OF Music, the
largest theatre in Brooklyn. was com
pletely consumed by a fire which is be-
lieved to have been caused by an ex-
plosion in the building. For a time
the flames threatened adjoining prop
erty and when the roof fell in part of
1t struck a liquor saloon building adj
joining but fortunately no one was
hurt, although the saloon was de-
stroyed. The loss was estimated at
$500 600. There was no insurance.
The fire started In the scenery on
the stage OF the theatre where a num-
Der OF men were preparing for the tes-
timOnial dinner OF State Senator Nc
Carren. For some unknown reason the
fire department was tardy in arriving
on the scene and it was fully fifteen
minutes before they had a stream on
the building. II was then discovered
that the water could be carried scarce
ly half way to the roof. Within half
an hour after the discovery of the fire
the entire building was a roaring fur
mace and the flremen bent all their
efforts toward saving the surrounding
property.

Nuts and Fruits N0urishinQ.

fcces we're included in the digestion
experiment. The results showed In
every case that though the diet had q
low protein and energy value, the sub
jects were apparently In excellent
health and had been SO during the
Ave to eight years they had been liv-
ing In this manner.
Continuing tho Investigations on
the nutritive value of fruits and nuts,
It was deemed advisable to extend tho
work to include. In addition to tho
women and children previously stud.
led, subjects whose lives and habits
differed considerably from those OF
the earlier investigation. According
ly four men were selected, two being
past the middle age and two young
men university students. The elderly
men had been more or less strict veg
e~tarians and fruitarians for years. One
of the young men had been expert
menting with the fruitarian diet for
several years, while the other was
accustomed To the ordinary mixed
diet.
"As shown by their composition and
digestibility, both fruit and nuts can
be favorably compared with other and
more common foods. As sources OF
carbohydrates, fruits at ordinary
prices are not expensive, and as
| sources OF protein and fat nuts at
] usual prices are reasonable"
