FOUR FIREMEN MEET DEATH
WEDNESDAY, Structure in New York
CITY DESTROYED.


New York, Jan. 13.-Four firemen
went to their deaths when fighting a
fire that rui.ed the Parker building, a
twelve-story business structure oceu-
plying the block between East Eight
zenith and Nineteenth streets on
Fourth avenue. Fought by half the
firemen of Manhattan and apparatus
that blocked the streets for blocks the
flames were never controlled and only
with difficulty were they confined to
the building in which they originated.
Floor after floor gave way and
dropped to the basement and beneath
these and crumbling walls no less than
thirty fremen we're caught and either
killed outright or seriously injured.
When the fire had burned itself out
and the hremen's roll was called three
men of engine company No " and
one from fire patrol No. failed to
respond. The men killed were Thomas
Phillips, Thomas O'Connor, John
Lynch and John Fallon.
The monetary loss is estimated at
$6,OO0,O00. ~
Sensational res cues were the feature
of the fire. Five men who were at
work on the top floor of the building
were cut off from rescue from below
and sought the root, where they stood
silhouetted against TIE flames which
had broken through the roof.
From the top of an adjoining build
ing, several stories lower than the
blazing one, a line was shot up from
a mortar and with this line the be-
1eaguered men drew up stout rope
which they fastened to chimney,

Rarnsley, Eng, Jan. 13-The sense

theater of this city resulted in six
teen persons, including a number of
children in arms, being crushed to
death by the frantic efforts of the
crowd to get clear Of the building.
Many others were injured and all for

fire; only the unaccountable panic of
the crowd that found it's egress from

There had been performance for
children at Harvey institute. The hall
was crowded to it's utmost capacity
and many persons had been refused
admittance at the door. At the con-

cHlNAMAN MADE IT CLEAR.
And Without the Use Of Any "Plseon
English" at That.

Numberless are the tricks which
newspaper reporters play upon one
another to relieve the somber grind"
Of their calling. Two young men, en-
ployed on a morning paper In large
American city. were detailed one day
to call upon the resident Cinnamon
and "interview" them respecting some
immigration measure then pending In
congress. One of the two reporters
was a beginner, and the other, an ex-
perienced man, naturally assumed the
management Of the matter.
Billings" he said, after they had
invaded several laundries without any
important result, here Is tea store.
I wish you would go in and talk with
the proprietor. I want to know what
he thinks about Cinnamon voting. I'll
go on and have an interview with the
man who runs this cigar shop next
door. Remember. to use the very
simplest English at your command"
The young reporter went inside the
tea store, took out his note book and
thus addressed the proprietor. who
happened to be alone at the moment:
John, how? Me-me-Telegraph.
John! Newspape-savvy, John? News
pape-print things. Un'stan'? Ne want
know what John think about China

Chinaman-vote-al same Mclean
man? savvy. John? Vote! What
think?"
The Chinaman listened to him with
profound gravity until he had finished
and replied:
THE question of granting the right
of suffrage to Chinese citizeas who
have come to the United States with
the avowed intention Of making this
country their permanent home IL one
that has occupied the attention 81
thoughtful men Of all parties for years,
and 1t may become in time one Of
paramount Importance. At present,
however, It seems to me there Is no
exigency requiring an expression OF
opinion from me upon this subject
You will please excuse me-"
The young reporter went outside
and leaned against a lamp-post to re-
cover from a sudden faintness that
had seized him. His comrade had pur-
posely "steered him against" one Of

to know the effects Of special foods
on his customers. A Cleveland
grocer has long list of customers
that have been helped in health by
leaving OF coffee and using Postum
Food Coffee.
He says, regarding his own expe-
rience: Two years ago had been
drinking coffee, and must say that I
was almost wrecked In my nerves.
Particularly In the morning ! was
20 irritable and upset that could.
hardly walt until the coffee was
served, and then had no appetite for
breakfast, and did mot feel like at

tiles of William Edward Murray's in
vention Of the principle Of building

structures"
It is said by marine authorities that
Mr. Murray has solved some of the
most difficult problems with which
mariners and naval engineers have
wrestled without success for years. BY
applying the Murray principle OF
steady fotation, 1t Is held, harbor. ac-
commodations can be enlarged almost
indefinitely at comparatively low
cost; danger signal lights easily can
be placed at points on the coast where
heretofore lighthouses have been i'm
possible on account of the absence of
rock foundations. and last but not
least, cities. shipping harbors. arsenals
and dockyards can be guarded abso-
lutely from bombardment by a large
foreign fleet. at the same time allow.
ing battleships free rein in the con-
duct of offensive operations instead of
keeping them on the defensive close
to home.
Idea 10 Simplicity Itself.
In common with every great revolu-
tiohary invention this idea Of Murray's
is extremely simple. AS a rear ad-
miral OF the American navy said to
the inventor, after the scheme had
been explained to him, the thing has
been staring us In the face fer a hun
dred years and yet no one has ever
thought OF II before. It's as clear as
daylight and as certain as DOOM" But
the inventor had worked at the prob
lem for eight years before he succeed
ed in demonstrating to himself-he IL
practical engineer-that his prin-
ciple was a sound one and capable of
absolute demonstration And, although
his final patents we're granted only by
our government in July last, his In

To Clean silk Gloves.

Washing silk gloves rots them rap
Idly. especially at the finger ends, yet
nothing is less excusable than soiled
white or other light silk gloves, be-
cause 1t is so easy to wash them.
To prevent this rapid destruction
Of the finger ends the gloves should be
hung to dry with the tips up. This can
be accomplished only by pinning each
finger out on cloth and then hanging
up the cloth with the arms Of the
gloves down. This let's water run
into the portions Of the gloves which
receive the least wear. dries the tips
more quickly and prevents the destruc-
tive action Of water on the silk.-De-
