IN AN OLD TRUNK.
Baby Finds a Bottle of Carbolic Acid
and Drinks It.

While the mother was unpacking an
old trunk a little is months old baby
got hold Of Il bottle OF carbolic acid
while playing On the floor and his stom-
ach was SO badly burned it WIS feared
he would not live for he could not eat
ordinary foods. The mother says In
telling OF the case:
1T was all two doctors could do to
save him as 1t burnt his throat and
after he took the poison nothing would
lay on his stomach. Finally | took him
into the country and tried new milk
and that wCs no better for him. His
Grandma finally suggested Grape-Nuts,
and ! am thankful | adopted the food
Tor he commenced to get better right
away and would not eat anything else.
He commenced to get heshy and his
cheeks like red roses and now he Is en-
tirely vol.
Il took him to MatamOras on a visit
and every place We went to stay to eat
he called for Grape-Nuts and | would
have to explain how he came to call for
1t as it was his main food.
"The names of the physicians who at
tended the baby are Or. Eddy of this
town and DR.. Geo. Gale of Newport. O.,
and anyone can write TO inc or to them
and learn what Grape-Nuts food will do
for children and grown-ups too" Name

SUGAR
CARGO ARRIVES
SHIP LUzON WITH OVER 1000 TONS
OF SUGAR REPORTED OFF della
WARE BREAKWATER SATURDAY

The Marine Exchange cable report
Saturday told Of the arrival of the ship
Luzon off Delaware Breakwater on that
date. The vessel was out 121 days, as
she sailed from Honolulu June 2. She
carried 1850 tons Of sugar and at the
prevailing quotation of $S5.1O ton her
cargo was worth $117,0OS. The Luzon
was one of the smallest of the vessels
carrying sugar around Cape Horn.
There are now only the ships Edward
Sewall and Henry Willard, barks Nuu-
anu and Abby Palmer and steamers
American and Hawaiian bound from
Hawaiian ports for the Breakwater
with sugar cargoes. The arrival of
several of them is likely to be reported
at any time. The entire sugar crop
should be marketed by the end of
November at the very latest.

THE Fires WERE INCHNDIARY.
LOSS OF FROM TWENTY-FIVE THRTY-THoUsAND DOLLARS
CAUSED BY CONFEDERATION CARLY MORNING
AN ABoRT1vE ATTEMPT EVENING
FOLLOWED BY SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT THIS MORNING

Lee Chongs store. The fire had gain
ed such headwav that there was no
chance to save the corner and the de-
partment was kept busy trying to save
adjoining buildings. Practically every
thing i'm the burning buildings was
destroyed The buildings on the Eva
side of Aala Lane. were badly scorched
by the heat which was terrific. Even
the oahu Railway depot which was
about 100 yards distant from the fire,
was scorched. A japanese woman was
reported to have been badly burned but
beyond this accident no one appears to
have been hurt.
1t was impossible this morning to as
certain the detailed loss of the various
tenants. In round figures the fire en-
tailed loss of about $4,000 to $50, ,0OO,
scarcely a third of which was covered
by insurance. There was $3.50 insur-
ance on the building Of Lee Chong
Company, another $500 on Lee Chuck S
building and $1,000 on Wo Chan's build
ing. Among the stores burned out were
Sun Wing Tai shoe store, insurance ST.
900, on King street; Chez Hoo Tong
drug store King street 5000 insurance;
Tong Kee shoe store on King street, in
surance $11OO; Tong Lee Yuen shoe
store on King street, insurance $1,000
Yee Wo was the butcher at the corner
His place along with the others was
completely destroyed. There were {
number of other stores which, witt
their contents destroyed but A. r
Gurrey of the Underwriters had no
received complete list of them or o
the losses and amounts of the insur
ance. 1t is very probable that arrests
will be made in the progress of the in
vestigation by the police, of the caus
of the fire.
On January 27, 1900, the same tit
was the scene of a disastrous fire tina
/ destroyed practically the same numbe
, of buildings that the blaze this mornS1i
