spectators were treated to- touching
scene.
Thirty years ago Anton left his
home in Dieppe, France. for Germany,
and at about the same time Henri de
parted for Australia. Later Anton
sailed for America and settled in Bal

Chicago. Henri also came to Ameri-

city.
During all the succeeding years the
brothers heard nothing Of each other,
but they prospered, and recently An.

Gascogne, and was walking up the
g%angplank today when he brushed

"Are you Henri Nodat," he e.

Are you not Anton Nodat, my

Mysterious Fire.

A mysterious, and what came near
resulting In a disastrous fire occurred
at the home OF John F. Van Glider, on
Norgantown avenue last Wednesday
evening. While the young folks were
away at church lie and his wife were
sitting in the dining room about sen
o'clock, when they smelled wood aire.
His wife proceeded to the sitting room
idtchen aud parlor to investigate.
Finding no signs Of 1t she went up
stairs, followed by her husband. They
searched three rooms in vain, and then
the wife opened the door Of a vacant
room where no fire had been used for
a year, when to her great surprise the
pent up smoke poured out in volumes
that fairly stitied her. The husband
rushed in and found the hall window
curtain in flames, the blind burned, a
dress on q stand near by, and the win.
dow casing, top of the stand and side
Of the bureau all scorched and charred.
Had there been any circulation of air
in the room, or had they not discovered
It Just when they did, the fire would
have had such a start that no efforts
on their part could have saved the
house from burning down. Appear
ing in the nick Of time, however, Mr.
Van Glider tore down the curtain and
blind all ahlaze and stamped out the
fire on the floor, where the carpet was
also found to be burned for a space
of two or three feet. The wife brought
a l.ucket # water when they soon
brought the fire under control and got
It extinguished. But no fire having
been In4he room, and being even void
Of a fiue or fireplace, the mystery Of
It's origin i9 unsolyed, unless caused by
mice gnawing matches which is posi-
BILE in theory.
