Figures on Baltimore Fire.

According to tho figures, the
destruction wrought by the Baiti-
moro fire docs not approximate
that occasioned by the great
Chicago fire Of 1871. In that
case the property loss was $3.50, :
600, 900; IN this 1925, 900, 900.
In Chicago II $50 buildings wcro
burned and 900 lives lost; in
Baltimore the burned buildings
numbered g, 500 and there was no
loss Of life. In Chicago 2,T0O
scro, were devastated, IN Balti,
more IS blocks. The Chicago
fro loft 10000 people homeless; !;
the one bright spot asaidst Balti-
morc's desolation is that the fire
barely touched the residence por-
ton Of the city and that there are
lew homeless people IN cOnss
qucnce. The property destroy ed,
too, appears to have bsen insured
fer about rs per cent oflts value.
1t is said that $50, 600, 900 of the
$50, 900, 900 of insurance is held

CHILDREN POISONED

Many children are poisoned and
made nervous and weak, if not
killed outright, by mothers giving
them cough syrups containing OPT
ates. Foley's Honey and Tar
is a safe and certain remedy for
coughs, Group and lung trouble,
and is the only prominent cough
medicine that contains no opiate,

After The COnfIaSTatiOD.
The Extent OF the Catastrophe
Not Exaggerated, 1925, ,000,.
600 Being Swept Away
in "a Hours.

Baltimore, Fob. "a great
cloud was lifted this afternoon
whenit was discovered that practl
cally all the vaults and stron =
rooms and safes Of tho financial
concerns whose buildings wore
destroyed are uahuIt. A .romon-
deus loss in securities had been
anticipated here and whom vault
after vault yielded up its treasu-
res unharmed, the Joy Of the
guardians was boundlsss.
$2OO,OoO,OOO TAKEN FROM RUINS.
From tho Continental Trust
Conpany's safes alone papers to
the amount of more than 5000,
600, 600 wsre recovered. The
news cheored the whole city AMI
encouraged m III q and
thorough Investigation; merchants
and their assistants, smoke soilea
and be-grimmed and hollow>eycd
from anxiety and loss of sleep,
worked like laborers in the smok>
ing ruins to uncover their safes
and in near y every instance they
were rewarded by intact CON
tents.
TWO BIG CONCERNS ESCAPE.
Another surprise was the dis
covsry that two financial concerns
whoue homes were directly in the
paths Of the flames, were practic-
ally unbarmed. These were the
Mercantile Trust Company and
Brown Bros. Bank. The escape
Of the buildings ls attribated to
the lack OF height. They do not
exceed four AtorioS and rs they
were surrounded by lofty struc-
lures the flames swept over them.
There are hetmcen LOCO, 900
and Sl2, 900, 900 now in the vaults
Of the sub-Treasury, Of which
over S7,000,0O0 are in gold. The
remainder consists Of currency,
silver and minor coin.
LOSS AND INSURANCE.
As yet no tigures on loss and
insurance that can be regarded as
official arc obtainabls. A care,
ful canvass of insurance experts,
builders and business men placed
the less il round figurs at S125, :
600, 900 and the insurance at from
$50, 900, 900 to 100000, 200. Ii
10 probable that these estimates
will stand with sli ght change when
the final 6gures are written. Much
valuable property that lay in
Mondays fire path WAS saved by
the prompt efforts of merchants,
and in that section the stock
lsssss will be lighter than slse-
whore.

This Dead Head Record.

Senator Tillmsn msy be iutor>
astcd in the bill introduced in tho
Legislature which will require all
railroad companies to furnish tac
Secretary of State with \ list of
public officers who travel on free
passes. Remembering that un-
pleasant incident in tho West not
long ago when he lost his passes,
he might deslre to have the bill
defeated, not that he Is ashamed
Of his regard, perhaps, but simply
for the reason that he does not
care for any undue publicity re-
garding his free dealings with the
transportation companies. There
seens to be some doubt as TO
whether he accepts these courte-
sizes. We lave been Informed
that the senior Senator from
South Carolina travels on mileage
on the Southern railway, but we
are likewise Informed on what
appears to be the most reliable
authority that at The time of bis
loss IN the West an Officiul notice
was posted in tho union station vt
Columbia, saying that Senator
Ti!lman's Southern railway pass
was missing The statement was
also made, we are lnfm raod, that
the notice mentioned the fact that
the pass was good on all divisions
of the system except in South
Carolina If that is true, Sena
tor TilIman is the best person TO
answer just why he should have
his ticket issued in that way. At
any rate, the Baumgard bill, if
enacted, will settle the question
in dispute for even if Senator
Tlllman does not ride free in this
State, it will show mhether he, as
an officer ef the State, is on the
dead head list OF the corpo, alton
he fought SO bitterly while he was
governor.
1t was also developed that
when he attended the meeting of
the board of trustees of Winthrop
College, travelling from Washing
ton to Rock Hill. for that pur-
pose, he charged full fare, which
was paid out of the funds of the
institution This, too, might call
for explanation. Ordinarily, the
public might take no interest in
such personal affairs, but its cur
iosIt~ was aroused when tho news
papers printeo the account of that
free ticket robbery out West, and
it will be aroused to an even
greater pitch if the Legislature
should insist on the record being
fled. -Greenville News.

The Crow Indians, vino have become
accustomed to look on the possessions
of the childiess old chef as already

cause the child who will eventually
succeed to Medicine Crows estate ID
not OF the tribe, but little white boy.
Medicine Grow took fancy to the lit
Tie fellow and bought him.
Because traaicking in human beings
is not exactly lawful, and not a few OF
the coppersAins are jealous of the in
terloper, it may be that trouble will
come Of old Medicine Crows bargain.
But the dissatisfied Crows dare not
grumble and most people are immense
ly pleased at the purchase.
Medicine Grow traded ten feet po-
MES, a new pillow and a secondhand
harvester for his adopted son. Johnny

years old His father, John Parsons,
