Prompt Action Prevents Dam

Saturday Night
FIRE IN FURBusH STORE

and Had Eaten Way Thru Floor Into
Ground story-Loss Estimated Be-
tween 81 900 and $500.

Prompt work of the fire department
late Saturday night saved disastrous
confiagration that might have con-
sl1med a West Main street business
block. An alarm at 1880 called out the
entire department. and within three
quarters of an hour an out signal was
sounded. The fire was in the Blnforo
block, corne, of Main and First, occu-
pied by William Furbush, with hard
ware stock. i'll the first floor and base
ment. and with offices in the second
story. Mr.. Furbush estimates his loss
at between $1,000 and $1,000, general
damage, largely from smoke and water.
The damage to the building is estimat-
ed by j. r. Binford at $50.
Chief Kirby and MIR. Furbush agree
hat an electric light Wire is undoubted-
IL the Gauss Of the fire. There is no
doubt but that this is the case In the
mind of the chief. The wires were
strung along the basement ceiling, ana
in some manner one probably became

further north an explosion would have
resulted. Powder. on the first floor. was
also far enough removed from the spot
where the flames entered the floor to
prevent 1t igniting. The explosion Is
thought to have been the tire of bicy>

fire burned thru the floor. The tire is
badly torn. as il it had exploded.

If all the Marshalitown team could
an easy bet on the pennant race. In
game full of ginger and fast fielding
Boone took the fourth and last of the
series from Marshalltown yesterday by
a score of 3 to L. The lone tally in
Marshalltowns column is home run
by House. None of the rest of the
Grays could solve Johns acrostics eff
fectiyely. If the home run had come
IN the eighth instead of the sixth, the
Shook, who batted for Disch, was hit
by the ball in that inning and Warner
got to first on fielders choice, for
the put out of Williams. who had
drawn a pass. House came UP to
bat and was looking for another drive
over the fence for three runs, but
Johns made him change his mind. He
landed on the ball for a hot grounder
to Mcclure and the snappy short stop
covered it like a hen on nest, shut
ting off Warner at second. The big
bunch of MarshalltoWn rooters, VINO
were at Boone to see the game, gave
up hope at this juncture, and the
ninth was one. two, three.
The first three Greyhoullds up got
to the kennel on McGuire's hit. Me-
kenzie's and Disehs errors, Penning
tons free ticket and Holcombs hit
The stampede was stopped by Dono-
vans short hit to the ground in front
of the catcher, but three scores looked
pretty good and the Grays never
caught up. Johns pitching is a wonder
and his support Was of the pennaut-
winning variety. There was enough OF
the spectacular to keep the crowd IN
q frenzy with phenomenal glove hand
scoop-up of Areher's. Disch's fly after
a long sprint, Pennington's stop of a
hot grounder and McGuire's clock-like
regularly in assists. Holcomb all but
got a two base hit, but he ran around
the initial bag and was called out for
treating first base ike a flag station
Reynolds, Pennington and Depew, had
their specs on and each one drew one
of Disch's three prizes. Donovan de-
lighted the fans with fast fielding and
perfect throws to first.
For the Grays House took the laurels
and Taylor won a round of applause
by a long run and catch. Disch'S and
Shocks battery work was good, but
the luck was against them, as their
team could not bat out victory over
the fatal first. The score:

Think what this means. Imagine the
amount of misery that exists and Is endured
simply because people do not know there is
IN absolute cure.
The only way to cure any complaint is to
remove the cause. There are very few dis.
eases or ailments that can be cured by eN
ternal application-and piles is not one of
them. Piles can be cured; the treatment
must, however, be internal, for the cause of
piles is an internal disorder of the liver or
