YES-IT IS POSSIBLE
TO STOP RHEUMATISM

Rheumatism is a tormenting and
stubborn malady. In some cases it
yields to treatment which is without
avail in other cases.
The darting pains, lame muscles or
stiflened joints only disappear by grad
ually expelling the uric acid, and so
many thousands have been relieved by
the blood-enriching oil-food in SCOTS
Emulsion that you should give it a
faithful trial. SCOTS Emulsion acts as
apowerful blood-puriher by increasing
the red corpuscles and it strengthens
the organs to carry off the acids which
cause the trouble.

EMPIRE THEATRE
BADLY DAMAGED
BY FIERCE BLAZE
Entire North End Of Structure Quilted
in Fire, the Origin of Which Has
Not Been Learned
HEROIC WORK BY DEPARTMENT
Big Asbestos Curtain Confines Flames
To Rear-InteriOr Had Just Been
Redecorated Throughout

The Empire skating palace. former
" the Empire theatre on Fourth ave
nue. between Nineteenth and Twen-
tieth streets. was badly damaged last
night in q spectacular fire, the entire
rear end of the structure being Quilted,
while the front end suffered from
smoke and the intense heat At first
the blaze assumed formidable proper
tons. but valiant work on the part of
the Rock Island fire department con-
fined the flames to the north end of the
theatre. Although Edward T. Dolly,
owner of the building, was unable to
place any estimate on the loss today,
it will probably run to between $15,-
900 and $40 900. The damage to the
building alone is given as $4,000.
Five minutes after the alarm had
been sounded at $50 the streets sur
rounding the theatre were damned
with thousands of people, attracted by
the bright glare, which was visible
for miles beyond the City's limits.
When the blaze was at its height, one
living a few miles away might have
thought much Of the business section
was in flames.
Blows Door Open.
The blaze was discovered by E. S.
Couch. who operates a confectionery
SIOI6 III inc II OL1I pal l VI t4LC D0AAoAAlo
and it was discovered by fremen at
the central station before the alarm
was turned in. Mr. Couch said today
the first inkling he had that the build
ing was on fire, came when one OF
the big doors in the lobby entrance
was blown open as if by a gust OF
wind and a shower of shavings from
the floor came out. He ran into the
theatre in time to see flames creeping
swiftly along the foOtlights.
At the central fire station, one of the
firemen. who had retired early. from
his window saw a red blow in the sky
He notified the company and the APP
paratus was well out Of the station
when the alarm sounded.
The flames spread with amazing
rapidity, the oil painted fiys and wings
and wooden props in the rear making
excellent fuel When the department
arrived. flames were shooting 70 feet
in the air out of the loft at the north
end.
Firemen Work Fast
Chief Newberry acted quickly, lay
ing as many lines of hose as possible
and surrounded the burning part with
a wall of water Through this method
the fremen succeeded in keeping the
flames confined to where they started
and the blaze practically smOthered
itself, when the walls collapsed 1O
minutes later. falling inwardly
Four companies were present fight
ing the flames until they were under
control, then the centrals remained
until 1870 this morning to extinguish
the last sparks. The loft in the rear
was 20 feet high, IS feet long and
80 feet wide and the top of the loft
was 80 feet from the ground. The
entire loft on the roof was burned off
and the interior was completely
