ANOTHER FIRE
SHROUDED IN MYSTERY
Shoulders in Unoccupied Room On
Conduit St. Fourth Of Series Of
Fires Of Recent 0rigin-Suspi-
cion Aroused.

Last night, shortly before O'Clock,
the fourth of a series of recent fires
of mysterious origin occurred in the
vacant room above the tailor shop o.
Mr. william Thomas, Conduit street.
adjoining the Chinese laundry
A volume OF smoke was seen to
burst from the room on the second
floor OF the building and an alarm
was given. The fire fighters fought
the fire with chemicals and later with
the hose, water seeping through to the
tailor establishment below and dam
aging some OF the goods
That the room was unoccupied and
no one, so far as known. had been
there yesterday, makes. things appear
very mysterious.
There is some uneasiness felt in
Annapolis in regards to the IRE at the
Parlett ice plant, and the Ere at the
Munroe stables, both Of recent date.
and whose origin is still unaccounted
for. That fires should occur in these
unoccupied buildings from no known
cause, and again that of last night
suggests q firebug.
Certainly the matter bears investi
cation. Some few years ago this city
was the victim OF several mysterious
fires, and detectives were put on the
case with satisfactory results It is
understood the local authorities are
having the series of fires investigated
as to their origin.
Mr. Samuel Davis and his sisters,
who own the building in which last
nights fire broke out, estimate their
damage at between $500 and $500.
partly covered by insurance The
rafters had TO be torn away to get to
the blaze, which seemed to eat its way
between the ceiling and the roof.
For a time it was feared the whole
block was in danger, but the splendid
volunteer Fire Department OF the city
soon had it under control As the
fire was opposite the Colonial Thea
tire, it broke up the performance, the
audience emptying itself into the
street until the fire was over The
consequence was the theatre did not
close its evenings program until
much later than the usual time
The day following the fire at the
stable of Mr. Frank a Munroe, coal
that had been stored there in the shed
was brought to Mr.. Munroe's store for
use and was found to be saturated
with kerosene. Jake, the man en-
ployed at the store, also scooped up
coal oil the next day in the melted
snow around the building. All these
things heighten the suspicion point
ing to incendiarism.

TAKE GOOD CARE
OF YOUR TEETH
II May Save Your Life Senator VIM.
Hughes Death A Warning

A few days since died, deeply re
GREETED. Senator William Hughes,
representing the State of New Jersey
In the United States Senate
The cause of his death was a gen
eral poisoning of the system due to
neglected teeth.
Senator Hughes was an unusually
powerful man. He had worked his
way up from a humble beginning. He
had worked hard, and after his cleo
tion felt that he hadn't time Ito give
to the dentist
His teeth were i'm bad condition;
every day, without knowing it, he was
poisoned from within-and now he is
dead
Human beings learn from the mis-
fortunes OF others. Many, including
fathers and mothers, should learn a
lesson from the death of this popular,
Woodworking member of the Senate
If he had taken the little extra time
required for good care of the teeth he
would be alive and working now.
Neglected teeth decay. Decaying
teeth cause the birth in billions of
poisonous germs in the gums and
other tissues of the mouth.
These germs are swallowed with the
food-and thousands of deaths every
year are due to this particular kind OF
poisoning.
AS one important manufacturer of
tooth brushes puts it "a clean tooth
never decays"
Teach your children to keep their
teeth clean-with good brushes, mouth
wash. powder tooth paste, Have a
dentist see your teeth at least once in
six months.
There is no poison more dangerous
and deadly than the poison originated
in your mouth and taken into your
system by neglect of the teeth

Sheen Has Woodsn Leo.

Charles Krauter living near BuCyrus,
O., had Il lamb get tangled up in a
fence and injure its leg. The veteFiu-
airy told him the leg had to come of.
Krauter did not want to lose the lamb,
so minus the leg he nursed it back
to health and then fixed up a peg leg
for it.
Now the lamb has grown to be a
sheep and still stumDs around on the
wooden leg. Occasionally the wooden
member becomes loose and falls eff
and the sheep then hobbies over to a
soft spot and waits until some one
comes along to fasten the leg on
again.
The wooden leg doesn't interfere
with the sheep growing wool fLE.
Krauter says, and wool is wool now

Save Meat For Home And Army-Pro-
lection To Soldiers Health

Every pound of meat or meat prod
ucts which reaches the mess tables OF
Uncle SANS fighting forces is inspect
ed at least twice by experts of the
United States Department of Agrieul-
ture-frst at the establishment where
il is packed or prepared and finally at
the camps. This extra precaution is
taken TO prevent food made unwhole-
some by adulteration or through tam
pering by enemies from reaching
American soldiers and sailors Lab
oratory analyses of samples taken
from supplies at the camps show if the
foods have been made injurious by
tampering.
Twenty-six hundred experts of the
meat-inspection service of the Depart
ment of Agriculture are stationed
throughout the country at establish
ments which prepare meat and meat
products for interstate and foreign
commerce. These inspectors personal
ly examine the live animals, the car
casses and all parts thereof at the time
of slaughter. They continue to inspect
and to reinspect the meat and meat
products throughout the different
stages of preparation.
All meat which is unsound, un-
healthy, unwholesome and otherwise
unfit for food is condemned and de-
stroyed in the presence of the inspec-
tors. Some 20 inspectors of this sery-
ice have been detailed to the various
military and naval camps All meat
and meat products for the army and
navy are obtained only from inspected
