FORT ATKINSON HAS
A $4,000 BLAZE.
Northwestern Manufacturing Company's
Plant Partly Burned and Business
Section Is Threatened.

FORT ATKINSON, Wis, Jan. Ga
large part of Fort Atkinson was in dan
ger last night when the Northwestern
Manufacturing company's big plant was
damaged by fire to the extent of 500, 900.
Fire started in the cutter works, and
soon had swept away the cutter works,
the repository and the trimming house,
all big three story structures.
The business section of the city is near,
and strong southwest wind famed the
flames toward Main street. The COM
pany's repository, however, was three
story brick structure, and though it is
a total loss the brick walls furnished suf-
hcient resistance to allow the fremen to
prevent q further spread
The Northwestern company manufac-
lures cutters, buggies, farm wagons, bob
Eleds and chairs, but the manufacture of
the latter three lines can be continued.
tIt is probable that the plant will be re-
quilt. 1t was partially insured
The Waterman had passed through the
cutter works at about 8 o'clock on his
rounds, and noticed nothing wrong.
ABOUT fifteen minutes later, however, the
treasurer of the company happened to
pass, and saw one end of the structure
i'm flames.
Help was summoned on special trains
GAINESVILLE and Jefferson each sent an en-
CINE and two hosecarts, GAINESVILLE fif-
teen men and Jefferson twenty-five.
More than 200 persons are out of
work as a result of the fire. The blaze
blocks. Near by is an electric and water
power house which was nearly crippled

| KEN0SHA FACING
BIG WATER FAMINE.
INTAKE FROM THE LAKE IS COM
PLETELY BLOCKED BY VAST
ICE FIELD.
Danger from Fire Great, Pressure on
Mains Being Very Low-Relief
Not Yet in Sight.

KENOSHA Wis, Jan. S-TSpeciaI I
The city of Kenosha is facing a water
famine today. The intake is complete
ly blocked with ice and the pressure on
the mains is so low that it is impossible
to furnish fire protection for the city.
Last night fire broke out at the resi-
dence of w. M. Duncan and the firemen
were forced to climb to burning roof
and stamp out the flames with blankets.
This morning City Engineer Moth and
diver from Milwaukee made a trip
over the vast ice field to the mouth of the
intake and efforts are being made this
afternoon to clear the ice from the in
take.
In the meantime the old fire engine
has been set up on the lake shore and
every factory in the city with water sup
ply has promised to aid to it's utmost.
Should the wind continue from the
northeast it may be several days before
relief can be secured.

Manufacture of Horseshoe Nails.

''There's philosophy in horseshoe nails,
and history, too," remarked Doc Bellen-
gee, a travelling salesman. "For instance,
you hear that the automobile has put
the horse down. Well, listen to the
comment of facts.
'In 1894 twenty-seven tons of nails
for shoes were turned out daily for
American consumption. That quantity
would shoe 100000 horses a day. In
1904 the quantity had increased to for
ty-one tons daily, showing that 100000
horses were being shod every twenty
four hours. As a matter Of fact, me-
chanical inventions have not decreased
the use of horses at all Railway trains
haven't done it, street cars haven't, au-
tomobiles won't People travel more,
that's all.-Kansas City Times.

Sheriff c.. A. Swerd of Price county
wilson because he wished to use railway
mileage, as was reported from Madison

The report sent to The Evening Wis

was without foundation, and rested on a
misunderstanding of newspaper report
er in this city.
The fact is that William II. Nichols.
surveyor of Price county, sent his resig-
nation to the governor. When the re
porter called at the executive mansion
for the days news, he was told of this
fact, but evidently misunderstood the
statement and wrote dispatch stating

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO
from Constipation. Bowel and Stom-
ach Trouble.
SUFFER

.. What is the beginning Of sickness?
A. Constipation
.. What is Constipation?
A Failure OF the bowels to carry off
the waste matter which lies in the ali
mentary canal where it decays and poi
sons the entire system. Eventually tie
results are death under the name of some
other disease. Note the deaths from
typhoid fever and appendicitis, stomach
and bowel trouble at the present time.
O. What causes Constipation?
A. Neglect to respond to the call of ma
ture promptly. Lack Of exercise. Excess
sive brain work. Mental emotion and
improper diet.

sleep and strength are it's symptoms.
piles, appendicitis and fistula are caused
by Constipation. Its consequences are
known to all physicians, but few suffer
ers realize their condition until it is too
late. Women become confirmed invalids

.. Do physicians recognize this?
A. Yes. The first question your doctor
asks you is "are you constipated? 2" That
is the secret
0. Can it be cured?

Stomach and Bowel Trouble. Having a.
rich, fruity grape favor, it is pleasant to-
take. AS tonic it is unequalled, insur-'
ing the system against disease. IT.
