The Erie has arranged for series of

Gilloppi, ten years old, and Charles
Santo, twelve years old, both of whom
live in Madison street, wandered to the

COAL DRIVERS STRIKE

Two hundred drivers of the Hudson
Coal Company are on strike to-day.
About one hundred were employed in the
Grand street concern and the other hum
dred at the Communipaw coal docks, at
Communipaw. The grievance is the enl-
ployment of non-union men. The COM
pany has many contracts to supply coal
for big New York concerns. the con-
tracts for which are forfeited if the coal
is not delivered on schedule time. It has
also contracts to furnish coal to local
public schools. The New York concerns
and the schools would have to close down
if the coal could not be delivered per CON
tract, but at the Office of the company it
was said this morning that every ounce
of coal contracted for would be delivered
on schedule time.

Assembyman Bierck's bill to enable the

The association claims that the resi-
dents of the upper section Of the Twelfth

Chat if the high service pumping station
were abandoned the residents would be

in case of FIRE. They also claim that in

Big Blaze On Saturday Night
Destroys Property Worth
About $4,000
ekUTlER & co.'s PLANT
ONLY THE FIREMBN's GOOD
WORK SAVED THE ADJOINING
SUGAR REFINERY BUILDINGS
OTHER PROPERTY IN DAN
GER.

The big plant of the ]. 81. Gautier ~
Co. pottery and crucible, gas and gold
retorts manufactory, at the foot OF
Greene street, was completely destroyed
BY a fire that broke out in one OF the
kilns at about eleven o'clock Saturday
night. The plant was about 2oox20o
feet and Immediately adjoined portion
of the American Sugar Refining Com
panyts plant. Part of the burned plant
was four stories high. 1t covered half
block. That the adjoining tall buildings
of 4he Sugar Refining Company and
other adjacent property were not burned
is due to the heroic and good work OF
he fremen in contining the blaze to the
one doomed plant, which was valued at
About 100000.
It was a three-alarm FIRE and nearly
every engine and truck company OF the
firesgepartment fought it. The building
was brick structure, but there was
much inAammable material on the inside
and it burned so rapidly that the watch
men had barely time to get out alive. 1t
is not known how the fire originated.
The plant was completely wiped out.
Only a meagre portion of the walls are
left standing. Those of the four-story
part Of the plant, at the southeast end,
toppled oyer and smashed number of
wagons that were being taken care of
by the UvaIde Carting Company, whose
establishment is on the opposite side of
of the many coal wagons Of Mackey,
Ysnng Go. Some Of those that were
smashed and others badly blistered were
brand new. About fifty horses were got
ten safely out of the Carting Company's
stables. TINS company's property adjoins
he big plant Of the Uyalde Asphalt Com
lany. Both concerns are equipped with
pumps and hose for fire fighting pur-
poses, the water being pumped from the
basin of the Morris Canal. They helped
the fremen in fighting the fire.
Fully five thousand people gathered in
the vicinity of the fire and watched the
fremen fighting the flames, which lit up
that whole section of the water front and
the fire glare across the river showed the
forms and faces of thousands of specta-
tors lining the river front of Battery
Park, New York. The fire lasted all
night and some of the fremen were still
ut work yesterday afternoon.
Some of tie streams poured upon the
Burning plant were directed by iremen
from the roof of the tall building of the
Sugar Refining Company.
Thousands of people who were not at
the FIRE visited the ruins yesterday.
The business was established seventy
Ave years ago. Mr.. Gregory Gautier is
one of the present owners. The plant was
run by Mr.. David R. DAILY, wel1 known
member Of the Board of Trade, Public
Library Trustee and one of Jersey City's
a5kst public-spirlted citizens. The loss is
well covered by insurance.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Suggestions as to the Proper Treatment
Of Bedding.

Air your bedding thoroughly
every morning and you'll not only
have better health, but the bed will
be fresher and more comfortable
In addition to this daily airing put
the mattress, pillows, blankets, com
forts and pads out in the sunshine
at least once week and let them air
for half a day. If possible find
time to gently whip the pillows and
mattresses with a light stick or rug
beater, for some dust is bound to
collect during weeks usage, and
this-which is unhealthy if allowed
to accumulate-in time breeds
germs besides taking elasticity from
the feathers and making the hair
filling in the mattress dull.
Many housekeepers are careful to
change the bed linen and take pride
in keeping it snowy white, yet they
do not pull the beds apart often
enough. Careful women not only
daily air all the bedding, but dur
inc the weekly summing the springs
are taken out, busted and wiped off
with damp cloth.

BALLOONS AND BULLETS.

In the course Of an interview with
a representative Of the Paris Matin
M. Julliot, the engineer of M. Lee
baudy's balloon, declared that bal
loon could scarcely be injured by
rifle fire. Two hundred bullets
through the silk would only slightly
diminish the balloons powers of as
cension, while its exceedingly mo-
bile properties would render the pos
sibility of disablement by shell
fire exceedingly problematical. But
should it be seriously rent the aero
nauts would probably be able to
reach friendly territory in safety
before the final collapse.

Health and Stupidity.

Commenting on recent debate
at the Louth education council, the
Rev. II. G. Simmonds, vicar OF
Grainthorpe, says, Il drew attention
to the very large number of people
distinguished for amazing bodily
constitutions and stupidity, also to
several friends of mine distinguish
ed for high mental attachments
coupled with weak health, and con-
cluded therefrom that health and
stupidity go together" = London

A Dinner That Failed.

In order to increase his business
an uptown hotelkeeper in New York
distributed half hundred invita-
tons to an elaborate dinner, send
ing them to prominent actors, writ
ers and artists. The dining room
was profusely decorated for the oc-
casion, fine orchestra was in at
tendance and the chef outdid him
self. Not one of the invitations
was accepted, the recipients to a
man refusing to become a party to
any such advertisement.

Bran La the 3 ath.

If YOU don't use a bath bag in the
daily self Tubing toss handful of
wheat bran into the water before
YOU take the little plunge. The
bran will soften the water and act
as an emollient for the skin. Never
use alkali soap, because it is an elf
cacious enemy of CRIME. 1t isn't
the thing for the bath, since it is an
efficacious enemy of the cuticlc. Use
a soap that isn't harsh, A soap that
makes the flesh smart is sure TO dry
the skin and make it turn unlovely.
Use the best soap distinguished with
vegetable oils.

An ObIiainu DueIist.

A new humor has been added to
the French duel. A M. de Groze
had an engagement with swords
with a M. Carillot. At the last mo-
ment he sent word that he would
not fight, but was sending his Sec
ond in his stead. Happily the Sec
ond acquitted himself so brilliantly
that the principals absence was not
felt, for he actually shed some of his
adversary's gore. 1t was delight
full touch, the courtesy Of not dis
appointing a waiting antagonist, but
sending instead nice, obliging
friend to pink him.

Utilizing Rivers.

According to German publica-
ton, Sweden is planning to use for
electricity every ounce Of water now
going to waste over her falls and in
her rivers. Engineers are in the
hills making surveys, and capital is
getting ready for the call that is
sure to come just as soon as the
surveys are completed. The same
may be said of Norway, where the
waters have shorter distances to
run, but are often of tremendous
volume. In Sweden the power will
be put to work in all manner Of
mills; in Norway in the mines-iron
and copper.

CLEANING Felt Hate.

A black felt hat may be cleaned
with ammonia and warm water, but
light hats must be cleaned with oat-
meal, heated and applied with a
brush. A white felt hat is cleaned
with equal parts of powdered pipe
clay and flour. Rub the powder
over every part of the hat and then
brush thoroughly. There is nothing
better for cleaning light colored felt
hats which are only slightly soiled
than dry cornmeal rubbed on with
piece of clean flannel.

Softening Sponges.

Sponges that gel INTO q uecam-
posed condition, hard and gelati,
nous. may be effectively cleaned and
restored to their former condition
by being immersed few times in
water in which sufficient siaked lime
has been added to make it of the
consistency Of cream. Squeeze the
sponge dry after each immersion;
# less lime IS used lie time required
Will be correspondingly longer.
