FIRE AT COUNTY HOSPITAL
Good Work by the Wauwatosa
Fire Department.
A Blaze at the County Hospital
Quickly Subduec.

FIRE tuesday morning A)dFbldiIy oeS-
troyed a building which is part of
the county hospital, short distance
west of this city, the fire originating
in the upper floor in apartments used
by attendants and servants connected
with the hospital The fire started
about 1920 o'clock and was put out
before noon, with but slight damage to
the building.
The fire when first discovered by
Superintendent E. c. Grosskopf, was in
the upper part Of the two-story dorm
itory for the servants, where between
thirty-fve and forty employees sleep.
He sent in the alarm on the county
system, which Immediately reached the
office of the almshouse, and Supt. Ferd.
Bark. with a number of employees,
hurried to the scene. They secured
the hose cart and other apparatus kept
near the hospital and attached it to
hydrant near the burning building.
They had no long ladders and were
consequently unable to cope with the
FIRE, which was burning rapidly just
under the roof of the building.
CALL OTHER DEPARTMENTS.
In the meantime the alarm was sent
to the Wauwatosa fire department and
also to the Milwaukee department.
The Wauwatosa department, under
command of Chief Schwaiger, respond
ed quickly, leaving their engine house
at 1915, taking their hook and ladder
truck and hose cart to the scene. BY
the use of the long ladders of the Wau-
watosa department the fire was soon
reached and the building flooded
Chief Meninger of the Milwaukee
department sent two engines, No. lG
and "a, truck No. z, and chemical No.
7 to the scene of the fire, under the
command of First Assistant Chief Clancy,
who made the run inside of % minutes,
arriving just as the fire was under
control
Before the fire was under control the
dormitory building was pretty well
Quilted, and the damage from water
was large.
When Chief Ferd. Bark of the county
fire department arrived the court yard
formed by the old hospital and the
newer buildings was filled with smoke
He at once saw the need of help and
the Milwaukee and Wauwatosa depart
ments were called.
The Wauwatosa department arrived
early and soon had streams of water
playing on the blaze. The hospital EN-
ployes showed presence of mind. in
quieting the patients, and in other
wise assisting
Chief Schwaiger of the Wauwatosa
department, says the pressure was
fairly good, that is, after the first few
minutes run. which cleared the hv-
drants of gravel and mud.
1t is thought the loss will not exceed
$1,000. 1t was mainly confined to the
attic and holes were burned through
the slate roof 1t started in room in
the southeast corner of the second
floor, and ate directly into the attic
without damaging the other rooms in
tie building. Water damage is all
that the other habitable parts of the
building suffered No one knows how
the fire started. 1t is believed it or
iginated in one of the BED rooms, but
i'll what manner is a mystery.

1t is literally true that a new broom
sweeps clean. If a new broom is exam
ined, the ends of the straws will be
found to be straight and the brush
square. After it has been used a while
the ends split and become sharp, and the
shape of the brush becomes irregular. To
renew the youth of the broom dip in hot
soapsuds and trim the ybftened straws

This can be easily obviated by using
Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root of
the difficulty by correcting the dlges-

Digestion furnishes nutrition for the
nerve centers. Properly digested food
furnishes these reservoirs of life with
vitality which leads to strong, steady
nerves and thus nurishes life.
Peruna is in great favor among wo-

On April 2 the first trains ran
through the Simplon tunnel. Engineer
Brandau. who had directed the work
on the tunnel. took the train In from
the Italian side and reached the iron
door which had been erected to stop
a flow of hot water and which still
kept the two sections asunder. Pres
emily the train from the Swiss end was
heard beyond the door. BY means of
hammering the two parties communi
Gated with each other. and In few
minutes the door was knocked down
and the tunnel was open. Mr.. Rose
mund. the engineer I'm charge of the
work on the Swiss side. shook hands
with Mr.. Brandau. Bands played the
Swiss anthem and the Italian royal
march. The Italian bishop embraced
the Swiss bishop. who then preached a
short sermon and asked Gods blessing
on the tunnel and all the human good
will and good labor which it repre-
sents. This was dramatic and devout
inauguration of great work In which
the whole world Is interested. The

The comparison was not inapt. AS

fifty tons-that is to say. the average
train load was only equal to the capaci-
