History was made recently in Oy-

DOZENS CAUGHT
IN THE RUINS
Big Building Occupied by a Depart
ment Store at Albany, N.
Y, Collapsed.
WHILE REPAIRS WERE BEING MADE
It Is Believed that 20 or 80 Persons
Met Death-Nearly All of the
Victims Were Employees of
the Store-The Loss 10
100000.

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 9.-The middle
section of the big department store of
the John G. Myers Co., in North Pearl
street, collapsed Tuesday, carrying
down with it over 100 persons.
Caught in chaos of brick, plaster
and wooden beams, between 20 and 80
men, women and children met death.
Twelve hours work on the part of an
, army of rescuers disentangled so
people, six of them dead and many of
the rest badly injured. Three bodies
were in sight at a late hour last night,
but many hours work will be required
, to get them out.
Anything like a complete list of the
killed and injured will be unobtainable
until the workers have made their way
to the very bottom of the mass of
wreckage. With few exceptions those
caught in the ruins were employees, a
large majority of them girls.
The best account of the event that
caused the ruin is given by the head
OF the crockery department, which oc-
cupied the basement.
"The workmen were saving at a
wooden floor beam," said he, which
pillars in the middle of the store. Ex-
cavation of the store was going on at
the base of this pillar and l believe
that the jarring of the beam beneath
it displaced the foundation of the pill
lar This thing l know, two of the
counters near the place where the
men were working began to sag and
several pieces of glassware slid to the
floor with a crash. I yelled to the
clerks to run for the front of the store
The words were not out of my mouth
when there came a creaking and
everything around us began to fall"
The pillar which gave way support
ed the ends of two great girders, and
when it fell the main support of the
center part of the building was gone.
With a noise that could be heard
blocks away and which shook the ad-
joining buildings, nearly half the great
structure, from cellar to roof, and eX-
tending from one side wall to the
other, came grinding down. Into this
cavern slid scores of employees who
were working on the floors above and
lacked the warning which enabled
those in the basement to escape.
Some, however, We're apprised of the
danger by falling plaster and saved
themselves by rushing to the front of
the store or to the fire escape in the
rear.
When darkness came it was esti-
mated that nearly so persons still re-
mained in the ruins and that not more
than half of these could survive the
weight pressing upon them. Fortu-
nately the wreckage did not take fire.
The building which collapsed is
owned partly by the Myers Co. and
partly by the estate of the late David
Orr The loss to the company is esti-
mated at between 100000 and $780,
600. The building was very old one,
but until now considered sound. Ex-
tensive repairs were under way when
the catastrophe took place.

The Maintenance of Way forces of the
Erie are now engaged in laying 800 miles
of 9O-pound steel rails on the main track.
A larger mileage has never been laid in
any one year before. The Erie has al
ways been noted for its good track, and
the management finds that it is necessary
to use a heavier rail on account of the
weight of the several hundred new engines
that have been purchased in the last two
years Much of the rail being removed
has only been in track four or five years
and will be used on branch lines.

"The Simple Life"
Proper Food is Really the First
Step in Right Living.

One of the evils of our complex mod
ern way of living, is our unnatural and
unhealthy foods.
To have really good health and a
good stomach it is necessary to eat
simple nourishing food EGG-O-SEE
is the ideal food, and reaches the
proper requirements In this direction
more nearly than any other cereal now
on the market.
To make EGG-o-SEE the kernels of
the choicest California white wheat
are first cleansed by brushes, then thor
oughly steam cooked, then flalSed and
crisped to maple tint and delicately
favored with natural fruit juice and
pure grain sugar.
In these delicious flakes, lies the
mighty strengthening power of the
whole wheat grain that evenly nour-
ishes every part of the body, and gives
physical and mental energy that means
splendid health and successful en-
deavor.
