LOSS NOT YET KNOWN.
pamau. as Result of Yesterdays Fire
Not Vet Estimated.

The damage as the result of the fire
of Yesterday afternoon. which Tot
time threatened the destruction OF the
store of the D. S. Good Grocery Com
many. has not yet been fully estimated,
ard no statement of the loss can be
given gu; for few days. After the
smoke in the basement had cleared
away, allowing a careful investigator
of the premises. ft was found that the
fire had not caught from the furnace,
as was supposed might have possibly
been the cause. Mr.. Forhes. or ine
company, says that the probabilities
ere that a match was dropped by some
careless person at the rear OF the
store, under the platform. and near the
basement window. Chief Kirby, of the
fire department, also shares this be-
lief. and thinks that the fire originated
outside the store, under the platform
The window that was near the ot.
tanks was completely burned away,
and 1t Is the greatest Wonder in the
world that the oil did rot become ig-
rited. The good work OF the fire de-
rartment is all that saved an sxpso-
sion and, without doubt. a disastrous
contlagra,ion. All efforts were CEN
tered on the portion of the basement in
which the oil was stored, and the
chemical apparatus was brought into
good play.
Mr.. Forbes says 1t Will be two or
three days before the loss can be as
certain,ed. as an inventory of the stock
will be taken. Most OF the stock OF
flour was destroyed. either by smoke
or water. The company carries $500
insurance. which Will fully protectithe
loss.
The Sinclair Tea and Coffee Com
pany is not able as yet to estimate It's
loss, which Will be small. Mr.. SIN
clair says that his damage will result;
from smoke, and the char
acter of some of his goods. especially
teas. VIII suffer from smoke absorb
don. He is also fully protected by In
surancs.

Food That Carries One Along.

TOOQ IuaS SaIItS0 SU0 SNsSuSs
It's nice to know of food that no.
only tastes delicious but that puts the
snap and go into one and supplies
staying power for the day.
A woman says: Il have taken enough
medicine in my time to furnish a drug
store. but in later and wiser years
have taken none, but have depende
for the health l now enjoy, on suitabl.
and sustaining food of which l keep on
hand a tested variety, plain but nour-
ishing.
"Of these my main dependence is
Grape Nuts, especially If | have before
ME day of unusual effort either men,
tai or physical. In this case 1 fortify
myself the first thing in the morning
with about four teaspoonfuls of Grape
Nuts moistened with cream and not
much else for breakfast and the amount
of work l can then carry through sue
cessfully without fatigue or exhaustion
is wonder to those about me and
even to myself. !.
Grape Nuts food is certainly Won
derful strengthened and is not slim
ulant for there is no reaction after
wards but it is sustaining and strength
ening as have proved by long expert
ence." Name given by Postum Co.
Battle Creek. Mich.
There's reason why four teaspoon
fuls of Grape Nuts and cream will add
more strength and carry one further
than a plateful of coarse, heavy food
that is nearly all waste. Grape-Nuts
food is condensed. pre-digested and
delicious. 1t contains the part of the
wheat and barley grains that supply
the rebuilding parts for brain and
nerve centers.

the famous little book. "The Road to

Oscar Pratt, Northwestern En-
ploye, of LaMoille, Run
Down by Train
DEATH WAS INSTANTANEOUS
Engine Crew Did Not Know That 1t
Had Struck Anything Until 1t
Reached This City, When Blood Was
Found on the Pilot-Fos obscured
the Track, the Trainmen Say.

The heavy. While fog which pre-
vailed this morning. was probably the
direct cause of another railroad fatal
ity In the county. Oscar Pratt. of La
Noble. d section man of the North
western, While inspecting the track
about four and one-half miles west
of that place. was run down and in
stantly killed by No. IA. the ast-bound
local passenger at about 9 O'Clock.
When found. some time later. he was
dead. The train crew knew nothing
of the accident until some time after
wards.
The first intimation any of the mem
7bers of the train crew had that some
thing had been hit was upon reaching
this city, about a half hour after the
accident occurred. While oiling his
engine the engineer noticed blood and
bits of flesh. and grey splotches. look
ing like brains. spattered over the
engine pilot. Two of the upright
wooden braces of the pilot We're brok-
en-. The blood marks and broken pilot
braces were on the fireman's side OF the
plot, but when asked, none of the crew
knew of having struck anything. The
engineer said that he had been rum
ming thru a heavy white fog all morn
ing, and had only passed out of II
few miles west of this city, between
here and LaMollle.
Pratt was working as section hand
for the company. and, as is the custom
tom. each day. was walking the track
of his section, inspecting the raiis ana
ties. 1t was while doing this that ne
was killed The crew of No. 10. the
fast mail. which passed the spot go
ing west a short time afterwards, saw
the body OF a man lying in the right OF
way. Ii stopped at State Center and
notified LaMoille. a section crew was
sent out to take care of the remains
which were brought back TO the La
Noble station Death must have been
instantaneous. as the head was crush
ed TO pulp, and the body badly brok-
en-. The train was probably running
forty miles an hour when Pratt was
struck.
Pra;, was abou: "a years of age and
was we'll known in LaMoille. where ne
Ind resided during the greater part
of his life. His parents, Mr.. and Mrs
Jonas Pratt, who live At LaMoille. are
among the older residents, having
made their home there for the past
thirty years. Pratt was married IN TINS
city about 4 month or six weeks ago
TO Miss Minnie Gross, OF LaMoille. BE-
sides the wife and his parents. ne
leaves two sisters and one brother, all
living In LaMoille.
Coroner III. II. Nichols was notined
and went to LaMoille this afternoon.
He will INQUIRE into the circumstances.
but whether he Will deem an Inquest
necessary or not. is not known.

RHEUMATISM that threatens youth
and middle life with the decrepitude
of old age.
RHEUMATISM that writes pain in
pathetic letters on the face of its vic
tim.
RHEUMATISM that ties the mus
Giles into knots and thrusts them
through with needles of pain.
RHEUMATISM that deposits pois-
ens in the joints until they refuse to
bend.
RHEUMATISM that racks the
bones and shackles the limbs with
the chains of hideous deformity.
All this trouble is caused by the re-
tention OF an excess of uric acid pois-
cns in the system. If your trouble is
just beginning. be assured that if 1t
II neglected or mistreated it may be-
come as bad as the worst. There is
one known cure that can be used
safely.
IT is THE NEW TREATMENT
BY ELIMINATION" This is the
tides Of the poisonous urate forma-
tide prevails in the blood 1t thickens

clogs the circulation. supresses the
secretions, makes cold hands and feet.
causes depression. heart disturbance,
makes kidney. bladder and stomach
trouble and If allowed to accumulate.
produces the worst cases of rheuma-
tism.
ELrMINO is the remedy for this
tide OF uric acid. 1t renders the urate
poisons freely soluble and clears them
from the blood. thus restoring health
and buoyancy. When the tide turns
and the urate poisons begin to pre-
cipitate out of the blood and to de-
post In the joints and tissues in
crystalline form. they are sharper than
pounded glass, and cause great irrita-
tton and pain.
ELIMINATUM is the remedy for
these periods OF pain. 1t redissolves
the recent nrate deposits that cause
bain and assists nature in eXpelling
them from the system. Thus the
Eliminative Treatment affords prompt
relief by removing the cause of your
disease and is at once reasonable,
scientific and most satisfactory. II also
points out the danger OF resorting to
the common treatments that drive back
the poisons and salt them down at the
expense OF future difficulty. as SO many
rheumatic cripples can testify. 1t shows
the folly OF resorting to opiates and an
esthetics to deaden the sensibilities SO
that you cannot feel the pain instead
OF removing the urate poiSonS that
cause the pain. This lainentable fact
Is witnessed by the many victims of
Opfates and alcoholic stimulants who
tried to fight the symptoms of disease.
but did not remove the cause. ELM

these remarkable remedies. Sold in

To Run Through to Washington

Commencing tomorrow the lOcomo-
lives attached to Southern Railway pas.
senger trains will run through to Wash
invton. For the past third OF century
engines and engineers have been chang
ed at this place for the reason that it was
not considered safe to run the heavy To-
comotives over the Long Bridge. Since
the new structure has been erected, how
ever. all classes of rolling stock pass be-
tween Alexandria and Washington, and
there is no longer any reason to change
locomotives The Southern, Washing
ton-Southern and Chesapeake and Ohio
Railways are using what are known as
Pacific trailers, class of large and i'm
proved locomotives. They are twelve
wheelers, six driving, four truck and two
trailers, the latter being placed under
the cabs. The Southern Railway Com
pany has introduced a pattern Of freight
engines known as the "seven hundred
class They are larger and more power
ful than any heretofore used on the road
Recently double header of this pattern

The McCue Case.

1t has been considered probable that
should the State build up strong case
against ex-Mayor McCue, whose trial on
the charge of wife murder begins IN
Charlottesville Tuesday, his attorneys
will advance the plea of insanity. 1t i.
asserted that there has been insanity in
the family, and that McCue's father spent
some time in an asylum. Ii is said that
a certain witness of the ex-Mayor will
testify that only two or three months ago
McCue talked @ him IN most absurd
way in a manner indicating insanity.
Against this assumption, however, Is
the fact that McCue recently executed
certain mortgages to his attorneys, sup
I,osedIy for the purpose of securing their
fees. Should the insanity plea be made
and sustained, these documents, OF course
would be worthless, aud the attorne! S
would have to look elsewhere for theiI
fees.
William aud Harry McCue and Mis-.
Ruby McCue, children of the accused ex-
mayor. reached Charlottesville yesterday
afternoon from Ronceverte, w. Va,
where they have been with Newton Dick
son, kinsman. Samuel o. McCue, an
other son, has been in Charlottesville
since Saturday evening.
DR.. Frank H. Crawford, of Mount
Sidney, Augusta county, brother'in'laE
of the ex- mayor, who testified at the in
quests i'll with typhoid fever, and unable
to attend the trial. His malady is aggra'
waited by worry over the case. and be
wept bitterly when he found he would
be unable to come TO Charlottesville.
McCue shows no signs of worry over
the impending ordeal. As ageneral thing
be sleeps we'll. Up toa few nights ago h'
had been going to bed at II O'Clock.
On Sunday night be was asleep by g.
He was somewhat restless Saturday night,
and told one of the Jail officials the mex

Railway improvements.

The new work which has been prose
outed by the WashingtOn-SOuthern Rail
way Company during the past year IS
nov in au advanced stage, and in
short time trains will be using the new
Iaa,:xay. The grading for the double
tracks from a point in West End 10 the
bridges over Cameron run, three miles
wesi of this city, is virtually completed.
The new tracks will be placed north OF
those now in use. At seminary, the
first station outside the city, an embank'
ment has been constructed which curves
10 the northwest for a short distance aud
then turns to the southwest, extending
10 the two bridges over which Southern
aud Washington-Southern trains now
pass. The track of the latter road now
crosses that of the Southern few yards
west of the bridges. Under the new ar
rangement Washington-Southern trains
will pass above the tracks OF the southern
RAILWAY and the abutments for the oridge
are now being constructed. Soutn 0,
this structure beautiful, massive and
durable arch has been constructed over
Cameron run. from which the city OBJ
tains IFS water supply. The work north
and northwest of Alexandria is being
rapidly prosecuted. The abutments on
King street extended are approaching
completion, while entertainments and
cuts extend from that point to St. Asaph.
Half dozen steam shOyels are at work
between that point and Four-mile run.
