ST. ALBANS BARN
WAS DESTROYED
Cause of Fire Early This Morning Is a
Mystery-Loss Is Estimated to
Be $1,000.

st. Albans, June ia fire which
broke out at 220 this morning in the
barn in the rear of Charles Stevens
house on South Main street practically
destroyed the barn with all its contents.
There was no livestock in the barn but
there was an automobile and 22-foot
motor boat, the latter the property of
Fl. NJ brennan. Mr.. brennan also had
some goods from his furniture store in
the barn, and all was destroyed. The
loss on the barn and automobile is ST.
900, while Mr.. brennan estimates his
loss at 5000.
The cause of the fire is mystery.
It was discovered by Policeman Robert
Walker in making his rounds. A por
tion OF the barn had been used at one
time as storage place for kerosene,
and the fact that oil had soaked in that
part of the structure made the flames
spread with greater rapdity. This is the
fifth mysterious fire within a few days.

Weather Conditions

Birmingham, July 4.-G p. m.)-There are no well defined pressure centers on tonights map, a condition favorable for the development of local types of wealth CT and variable winds. Local showers and thundershowers were comparatively frequent over much of Alabama, Missis- sippi, Georgia, South Carolina, and north- ern Florida today, and as a consequence the weather is generally cooler over those states
 Tn the interior of the country west of the Mississippi the general drift of the winds Is from the south, which has brought about rising temperatures there. Readings ran high at places in the north ern Rocky mountain states It was 92 at Havre. Montana.
 A continuance of unsettled and show cry weather is probable in Alabama Sun day and the showers will continue to be local in type. Moderate temperatures prevailed in the Birmingham district to- day and they may be expected Sunday, but the high humidity will probably make it seem warmer than indicated by the thermometer.

 BY OVER 300 PEOPLE

Carl H. Milan. public librarian, was greatly pleased last night by the results of his decision to keep the public library open yesterday. It was felt that many people who do not have opportunity to visit the library on work days would be glad to avail themselves of an oppor- tunity to use the books and publications on holiday.
 The result has been highly gratify- ing" said MT. Milan. Our records to- day show 333 people have visited the library. Among this number were noted many strangers-that is people whom we are not accustomed to seeing there One noteworthy case was mother with sev- eral children who came and spent con siderable time."

 Peruna is undoubtedly a splendid medicine for the stomach. A great many people after years of searching for remedy finally try Peruna and are cured. This remedy is especially helpful in cases of weakness of the stomach. Those who prefer to take tablets instead of liquid medicines can get Peruna Tablets.
