CAUSE
MANS DEATH
Harry Fleming Caught In cupoia OF
Burning Ice House in Burling-
ton and No Help Could
be Given.

BURLINGTON, Iowa, July 25.-Har-
~ Fleming. aged % years, was burned
to death early this morning in a fire
which destroyed the plant OF the Bur
lington Sanitary Ice company on
Agency street and the Burlington rail-
road tracks. The fire started in the
blacksmith shop from some unknown
cause and soon spread throughout the
big brick building. Fleming, who has
been working for the company for the
past two years, was sleeping In the
cupola Of the building, where he had
sought cool place to spend the hot
night. He was awakened by the IRE
but too late to escape as he was en-
tirely surrounded by flames. His
heart rending calls for help were heard
by hundreds who rushed to the scene
of the fire but it was beyond human
power to save him.
The alarm was turned in shortly
after half past one o'clock this morn
ing by Frank Coon, who is the night
man at Coon's restaurant on Central
avenue.
The alarm was also given by II. M.
Pattan, the engineer, and his son VINO
saw the blaze in the blacksmith shop.
When they returned to the burning
building they were unable to enter it
to shut of the engines, as the whole
place was a mass of flames.
The officers OF the company are
Charles A. Esau, president and treas
urer; c. X. Kruger. vice president,
and d J. Reinert, secretary.

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful
what you use. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali, which
is very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain null
sified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and
beats the most expensive soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and few ounces
will last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle Of dust, dirt and
dandruff.
