Advice to Women A Message from a Famous Beauty Specialist to Women Lacking in Energy and

Thousands of women vainly attempt to improve their complexions and to remove blackheads. crows feet and other blemishes through the use of cosmetics. This treatment fails be- cause the trouble lies far deeper than the skin. They are suffering from inn pure and impoverished blood. This con- dition is in many cases due to ca tarrhal condition of the whole system which finds it's expression in sallow, muddy complexion. dark-circled eyes. general weakness of the system. and perhaps most plainly in the weeping of mucous membranes that is common ly called catarrh.

FOUR DAYS OF CARNIVAL.

Some people have various aims in life. One strives to ennoble his fel- low men, Others again. want to be known as heroes. and some don't care what they do. Nat Reiss' sole idea is to provide clean healthy amusement for all. that's the reason he is in the amusement business. Just for the sake of amusing some of the thousands who will be here the next few days, he will open his carnival shows for four nights, starting February 9th. Without any thought of any big fi- nancial gain. because there is a heavy expense connected with bringing the outfit from its quarters and putting up the shows. but the people must be entertained and notwithstanding the cost. Reiss intends to do it. There will he something doing every minute and lots of fun.

WRECK|NG TRAIN HELD UP
ANGRY ARMED ITALIAN La
BORERS INTERFERE.
Refuse to Allow Track to Be Cleared.
Sheriff Is Called on for
Protection.

ALBANY, N. Y, July h8-A wreckine
train on the Boston and Maine railroad
which was sent out from Mechanicsville
early today to clear up the freight wreck
which occurred yesterday near Ushers
was tagged by Italians before 1t reached
the wreckage.
AS the train slowed down two Italians
covered the engineer and fireman with
rifles and refused to let the wreckers pro-
ceed.
laborers who found themselves fac
ing an angry crowd of about sixty other
Italians, all armed. and who declared
that the wrecking train should not go
farther After considerable parleying
the train was forced to return to Me-
chanicsville.
Since July . the trackmen on the Della
ware and Hudson railroad have been on
strike.
The railroad between Mechanicsville
and Crescent is operated jointly by the
Boston and Maine and Delaware and
Hudson companies. Yesterdays wreck
was believed to have been caused by
pulling spikes from the rails.
During the controversy today the
wreckers were told by the Italians who
held them up that a Boston and Maine
crew would not be permitted to clear up
the wreck. as that was the business of
the Delaware and Hudson Company,
which indicates to the officials that the
striking trackmen or sympathizers were
responsible for yesterdays wreck.
! Supt. Tyler Of the Boston and Maine
Company called upon the sheriff of Sara
toga county for protection. In the mean
time deputies are being sworn in and
trains are being sent from Crescent to
Mechanicsville by way of Troy.

PLANS ABOUT READY
Architect Soon to Deliver De-
sign for New Post Office.
HAS LARGE FLOOR SPACE
Specifications Provide for Construc-
tion of Two Buildings.
SITE NEAR THE'UN1oN STATION
Structures to House Divisions of
General Post Office in Addition
to Local Force

D. H. Burnham & Co, the Chicago
architects to whom the Secretary o.
! the Treasury gave the work of design
! ing the new city post Office for Wash
| ington. are fast completing their task
and it was expected today at the Treas
ury Department that the working
drawings and specifications will be
completed in time to advertise in Sep
the building This would permit the
actual work upon the building to begin
in October or November, providing the
bids do not exceed the s3.00o,000 ap-
preparation made by the last session
of Congress.
While the building is primarily intend
ed as post office for the city of Wash
| ington, much Of the work of the gen.
eral post Office will be done there, includ-
ing the mail bag repair work, mail bag
lock work, the handling of dead letters.
postal supplies for the nation, the rail-
way mail service and the Washington di-
vision of post Office inspectors.
Provides for Two Buildings.
The photograph shows only one building,
but there will in reality be two The
main building will front on Massachusetts
avenue, adjoining and directly west OF
the grounds of the Union station, which
was also designed and constructed by
Burnham & Co.
The Massachusetts, avenue front will be
only three stories high. The topography
is such. however, that the rear of the
building will be six stories. The slope
from the northeast corner of the building
next to the Union station to the south
west corner is twelve feet. Thence north
the fall is still greater. reaching thirty
feet below the northeast corner.
The rear OF the building will be six
stories, as stated and separate from the
front This building will face G street.
and there will be 100 feet between the
the G street building. Ultimately. as the
postal business of Washington and the
nation grows. the two sections OF the
building will be connected.
The land upon which the bullolng IS
to be erected contains four acres. and
the total floor space of the building will
be 10000 feet. The main floor will be
on a level with the Union station. and
the two will be connected by bridge
1t is estimated that the termination of
transportation and rental contracts made
possible by the new building will save
the government s162,OO each year.
Harmonizes With Union Station.
The architecture of the new city post
office is in harmony with that of the
Union station. The building will be of
granite. Notwithstanding the great diff
ference in the topography Of the site. the
roof line will be the same, extending
back from Massachusetts avenue to the
north end in perfect harmony.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has ap-
proved the plans, which are satisfactory
to the Secretary of the Treasury.

NEW YORK. July 16-A serious fire
broke out this afternoon on the old Red
Star pier now occupied by the Metro

threatened for time to destroy the
passenger steamboat Harvard. which
plies between here and Boston, and the
freight steamer H. F. Dimock For

get away from the burning pier under
their own steam. Both suffered slight
damage
Flames Spread Rapidly.
The pier. which is in the North river.
at the foot Of Fulton street, caught
fire on the far end and soon the whole
structure was ablaze. Four alarms were
turned in, and fireboats and tugs which
hurried to the burning pier soon had
streams of water pouring on the flames
Officials of the company said that they
felt that no lives were lost. though
workers on the pier had to fly because
of the rapidity with which the flames
spread to the structure.
The heat of the flames was intense. and
soon the far end of pier 10. occupied
by the Brunswick Steamship Company
was in flames. Because of the great
heat the firemen had to fight the flames
at distance of 100 yards. Several floats
and lighters are believed to have caught
fire and been destroyed

from the blazing pier fell on the roof OF

At 1:25 the firemen had flooded the pier
with water, and it was thought that the
progress of the flames had been checked.
Employees of the Metropolitan line pier
said that the blaze started from an eX-
