SEVEN STILL ALARMS.

Fire Department Kept Busy on Many
 Calls Yesterday.
 The fire department was kept busy all day yesterday with still alarms, there being seven of them.
 At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon No, 3's house received a call to L. D. Lins- ley's residence, 120 Dixwell avenue. In some manner unknown a fire started in a clothes closet and before it was extin- guished it burned up several fine gar- ments and also damaged the woodwork. The loss will amount to over a hundred dollars.
 About o'clock last night the same company received a call from Dr. Will liam T. Welch at his residence, A Col lege street. Some of the radiators have been newly painted and the paint, catching on fire, caused considerable smoke There was no damage, except that the paint was burned off the radi- ators.
 An account of the other fires yester- day will be found in another part of this paper.

A PECULIAR ACCIDENT.

We'll Known Taunton, Mass, Merchant
 Had His Leg Run Over by Train at
 Depot.
 Philander Williams. seventy-four years old, and a well known merchant of Taunton, Mass, met with peculiar accident at the Union depot about o'clock yesterday afternoon. He was en route from his home to New York city and when his train arrived at the depot he got off to get some lunch in the depot restaurant. When he had finished eating and as he was going to get his train it started up and in run ming for it his right foot slipped and went under the train. In some peculiar manner the wheel tore all the skin off the foot.
 He was taken to the New Haven hos pital and it was stated there last night that the accident was one of the most peculiar ones which had been treated there in a long while.
 It was also stated that the foot would have to be amputated just above the ankle. He is reported as resting as comfortably as could be expected.

BILL BY PROFESSOR D. CADY
 EATON.

Introduced in CongresS-To Limit Rights and Powers of Corporations. Congressman Sperry yesterday in- | troduced in the house bill to regulate corporations and trusts, drawn by Pro- lessor D. Cady Eaton of Yale univer- sity, and presented at his request. The bill is as follows:
 Section 1.-The rights, powers and privileges of a corporation shall be con- fined to the state creating it, whether the same be chartered by the legisla ture of said state or organized under the general corporations laws thereof. Section 2-The officers of corpora tion chartered by the legislature or or ganized under the general laws of any state must be bona fide citizens of that state.
 | Section 3-No corporation chartered l by the legislature or organized under the general laws of any state shall con- | trol by purchase or in any other way | any corporation created by any other state and any such sale or transfer
 made in violation of the provisions of this section shall be legally invalid and of no effect.
 Section 4-When it becomes necessary and proper for the purposes of inter state commerce or to promote the best interests of the relations between states that a corporation exercise corporate powers and enjoy corporate immunities in two or more states of the United States of America, such corporation shall be created by congress and be subject to congressional laws, rules and
 regulations provided for it's govern ment.
 Accompanying this bill is petition | of Professor Eaton's, which is as fol- 1 lows:
 1 Whereas, corporation is neither a
 citizen nor a person and is, therefore,
 not entitled to the privileges conferred by the constitutional doctrine of the i comity of states; and
 | Whereas, therefore, the powers and
 privileges of a corporation are limited
 to the creating state and state has
 no power to confer corporate powers, privileges and immunities on persons not it's citizens, and
 | Whereas, this doctrine of the limita- tion of the powers of corporations to creating states has not been recog- nized, but, on the contrary, state cor
 porations have been tacitly permitted
 to make contracts and transact busi-
 ness in all the states; and Whereas, corporations created by one
 state have been tacitly permitted to
 purchase controlling interests in corpor-
 ations created by other states, thus giv- ing rise to trusts; and
 Whereas, trusts have been permitted to grow into monopolies, which are re-
 pugnant to the spirit of the constitu- tion of the United States and in viola
 tion of the laws of congress and of sev- eral states:
 Therefore, your petitioner respectful ly prays for the passage of the follow ing bill.
 Tine bill was referred to the commit tee on the judiciary, of which Mir. Jenkins of Wisconsin is chairman.
 Mir. Jenkins said, after reading the bill
 and resolution, that it showed the au-
 thor of it had studied the subject care
 fully and the billl looked as though it
 had considerable merit. MT. Jenkins
 has assured Congressman Sperry that the bill will be given consideration by | the committee.

WARM WAVE COMING.
WEArHER MAN PREDICTS 4
 CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE.

Pupils in Several Schools Dismissed on
 Account of CoId-Harbor is Blocked
 with fee and Navigation Possible
 Oniy to stcAmboats-PIumbe Busy.
 The cold weather of the last few days has obstructed travel on the Consoli- dated road, and railroad men are pray ing for warm spell. All of the trains have been more or less late, the news papers being sufferers to large extent The Bankers Express from Hart ford, which is one of the pets of the road, ran about forty-fve minutes be- hind time yesterday on it's way to New York.
 The thermometer at o'clock last night registered above zero. but the weather man predicted last evening that to-day would be much warmer. and that the worst of the cold spell is passed. The coldest registered yester- day was below zero yesterday morn- ing.
 The plumbers were working overtime to answer all the calls that were sent in for men to thaw out frozen water pipes, as a host of householders were in trouble on this account. In various of the halls and public buildings the water pipes are frozen. It was found necessary by the school authorities to close several more rooms in the city yesterday morning. It was found impossible to properly heat the schools and the rooms were closed and the pupils sent home. This was done at the Oak street, Orange street and Winchester schools and at the County home. and those which were closed on Monday were kept shut yesterday. In some of the rooms that have not been closed the pupils are compelled to keep their coats and wraps on to keep warm. Secretary Hewitt, of the board of education, attributes this state of af- fairs to the system of ventilating and heating employed in the building. He says that while the ventilation is good, 1t makes it very difficult to properly heat some of the rooms. Long Island sound as far as the eye can see from New Haven is covered with ice. The inner harbor is s0lidly covered with ice. It averages five inch es thick.
 In some spots along the shore front the ice is piled up ten feet high. The tide and wind bring huge cakes ashore and dump them high upon the beach. In some places the piles are much high 1 CT than in others.
 The channel is frozen over, and only steamer-propeiled crafts can get up the harbor; and these vessels will be badly hampered if the cold continues another day or so. The temperature at the old 1 lighthouse dropped to below Monday evening.
 Men obliged to be out driving yester- day wore, in some cases, two overcoats, three pairs of stockings arctics over shoes and fur caps, besides their other usual assortment of clothing, and then did not enjoy themselves.

DOCTORS SHIFT
Now Gets Along Without It.

A physician says: Until last fall I used to eat meat for my breakfast and suffered with indigestion until the meat had passed from the stomach.
 Last fall I began the use of Grape Nuts for breakfast and very soon found I could do without meat, for my body got all the nourishment necessary from the Grape-Nuts, and since then I have not had any indigestion and am feeling better and have increased in weight.
 Since finding the benefit I derived from Grape-Nuts have prescribed the food for all my patients suffering from indigestion or overlooking and also for those recovering from disease where I want food easy to take and certain to digest and that will not overtax the stomach.
 T always find the results l look for when I prescribe Grape-Nuts. For eth icaI reasons please omit my name.' Name given by mail by Postum O., Battle Creek, Mich.
 The reason for the wonderful amount of nutriment, and the easy digestion of Grape Nuts is not hard to find.
 In the first place, the stasehy part of the wheat and barley goes through va- rious processes of cooking, to perfectly change the starch into dextrose or Post Sugar, in which state it is ready to be easily absorbed by the blood. The little parts in the wheat and barley which Nature can make use of for rebuilding brain and nerve centers are retained in this remarkable food, and thus the hu- man body is supplied with the power full strength producers so easily no ticed after one has eaten Grape-Nuts each day for q week or ten days There's a reason.

 Lynn Adsit returned home to Ju- neau last evening on the Jefferson and was in the city today shaking hands with his many friends here. Lynn is looking well, and like many others who leave this section of the woods glad to get back.
 Mr. David N. Judson, mechanical genius of Treadwell, is exercising his ingenuity on self feeder for the 24O mill. The device .gives perfect satis- faction all but in few minor details. The device would be a great help in the reducing of ore, and we hope that Mir. Judson will meet with unqualified success in his undertaking.
 Mrs. J. Alexander who will have charge af the intermediate department in the Douglas school, came back from her summer vacation, on the Jefferson. That is she will come back when the Jefferson returns from Skagway, she having continued with the boat for the round trip to the Windy City. Mrs. FEE. Smith joined her here for the round trip.

The Celebration.

Douglas Island enjoyed the second half of the much delayed Fourth of July celebration yesterday. The weather was all that could be desired. Supt. Macdonald gave bis employees a half-holiday. About S4O0 was ex- pended in prizes. The Douglas liar moDy band warbled sweet music. The pleasure park was crowded with people.
 A feature of the fun was ball game between the Eagles and the Knights of Pythias. The natural awkwardness of the players was supplemented by an indifference that made the game al most funny. Martin Olson created a stampede by exhibiting a loaded cane loaded with boose. After all were re- freshed the game went on as before. Foxy Grandpa Campbell and Jack Mcdonald put up fast race for men over 50. Jack won by nose. Since Jack got his new light hat he looks too young for the old mems class.
 The married ladies wouldn't run, so the prize was given to the married men. There were plenty of coa- testants. It looked for a while as if Charlie Fox would be one of them, but Charlie dropped out when the time came to start. Ed Armstrong was the winner.
 Everything passed off without ac- cident, and we may now say that the Fourth is over.
