He was on the second floor and Immediately
gave the alarm to the other employes. He
then hastened to the street to notify n
policeman. In the meantime the employes
of the electrleal bureau at the rlty hall,
two blocks away, saw smoko Issuing from
the building and transmitted an alarm to
the fire department. When the engines ar
rived the flames had enveloped the building
from top to bottom and the Intense heat
from this terrifying mass of flames made
It almost Impossible for the firemen to get
within close range of the seething furnace
Ignoring the flames for the time being,
the- firemen devoted their whole attention
to the work of resoue. Aa somo of them
stood within the scorching heat of the fire
with nets outspread to receive those who
leaped from the burning building, their
comrades played lines of hoa upon thum.
When their .work In this respect was ended
many of the firemen were completely ex
hausted. Walla Knll.
Most, of the fatalities occurred In tho
rear of the building. As If by common Im
pulse the majority of the employes at
tempted to reach places of safety by means
of the fire escape on tho Commerce' street
end of the structure. Many, of them, ren
dered practically Jnaano by fright, leaped
to the ground. Others, becoming uncon
scious from the smoke and Intense-' "heat,
tell to the p'avemnt. When the5 nremen
arrived Commerce street was flllrd with
these unfortunate .lctlms and for the space
of an hour the police and hospital servlci
was taxed to their utmost capacky. For
an hour the roaring flamea threatened the
lives of every one who waa compelled to
work fighting the ilreir protecting tho sur
rounding property 'and every mlnuto of
time threatened many other thousands of
dollars' worth of property on all ildes of
the prlnolpal building In which the blaze
started; It looked for a tlmo.as If tho en

building prevented the spread of the Are.

' Trampinr witi Tramps,"
ERS0NAL EXPERIENCES TOLD BY SPEAKER
ireturer llecounts What He Ha ."ecu
ami What lie Ha Tried lo
Do to Correct the
ISsll.
Twelve years ago a garig of ragged tramps
bound for Chicago were thrown from a
Ilurllngton train near PaclAo Junction.
Alert brakemen kept the crowd from hoard
ing another train and the wanderers were
compelled to'walk back to Omaha. Among
tho hoboes was a slender youngster who
looked strangely out of plncc In the drove
f professional hums. That boy was Jo-
slah Flynt Vlllar.d.
Tho runaway boy whose blood ran too
fast for quiet home life did not stay on tht
road permanently. After eight months of
omadlc life hu returned to his homo In
Evanstnn and took up a more conventional,
career. In a few years .his experiences as
hobo were published In a book called,
Tramping- with Tramps.'1 ltl night ho
told a large audience at tloyd'a theater
about his unusual associations with tramps
and criminals.
The well-groomed lecturer did not sug
gest the ragged knights of tho toniato can,
whose lives have been tho .subject of hla
life study. Ho talked of "Denver Red,"
'Illack Mlko," "Slim" and half a dozen
other hoboes sb though they were his most
Intimate, friends, and told many stories
about the vagrant class.
(irnritiiitlnn of VnKrnitcj-.
Trnmps arc discouraged criminal. They
are men who have tried to bo criminals and
havo found that they haven't sufficient
brain to become successful crooks," said
Mr. Wlllard, or Mr. Flynt, as he Is popu
larly known, In describing the associates of
his youth. "I havo estimated thnt there are
00,000 professional vagrants who never
work, These men aro divided Into three
classes, Tho upper crust Is made up of
fellows who dress well and usunlly havo a
little money. Tho middle class has poor
clothes nnd Is less prosperous, while- the
lowest class Is the ordinary tomato can
hobo.
"Every year these men aro forced to de
vlHe new mnthodtt of extorting money nnd
provisions from tho public. Many of the
tramps carry young boys with them who
nro taught to work nn tho public's sym
pathy nnd have better success than ndults
In getting provisions. Thcro nro at least
7,000 boys who aro being educated by
tramps. From these boys come the rein
forcements which will perpetuate this class
of roving vagrants. Tho boys of tho rich
nnd the poor nro lured away by tramps and
trained to provide for their teachers."
Mr. Flynt told of experiences he has had
recently In assisting with tho policing of
railroads, and expressed tho opinion that
tho tramp nuisance will be abated when
railroads succeed. In preventing the va
grants from riding on trains. He cald that
If the railroads quit carrying hoboes they
will be forced to take to country roads, and
that farmers will not tolerate Idlers.
In the World of firnft.
During tho last year Mr. Flynt hos de
voted much of his time to tho study of cor
ruption In municipal governments. Chi
cago, New York, Ooston and Philadelphia
have all been visited by Mr. Flynt nnd a re
tired safe robber whom he employed to help
in Investigating the relations existing be
tween police officers and detectives and
criminals.
"Iloston Is less under the sway of the
criminal classes than any of the other three
cities," said Mr. Flynt lu discussing the
perfect understanding ho found to exist be
tween officers nnd criminals. '"In all tho
cities vice was found under the eyes or
officers who were paid to keep quiet. The
corruption is not In politics. Tho Indi
viduals In pollco depart incuts and their
chiefs were found to profit by tho Bharp
practlcc. Investigations havo been started
in Chicago and New York which have rev
olutionized tho world of graft and' have
opened the eyes of the public to the sharp
practices of men whom they had hired to
protect them from criminals."
Mr. Flynt's lecture was tho first number
In the entertainment course given by the
teachers In tho public schools. Tho next
attraction lu the course will bo Slayton'a
Womnn's Symphony orchestra, which will
appear In Omaha Nevembcr 19.

ST. JOSEPH. Mo., Oct. 25. (Special Tel
egram.) The Philanthropy hall project,
suggested by the Wednesday club of St.
Louis as a permanent memorial of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition, received the
unqualified endorsement of the Missouri
Federation of Women's Clubs Just before
the adjournment of the state comcntlon to
day. Tho Wednesday club of St. Louis Im
mediately pledged $5,000, and other clubs
were prompt In their declarations that they
would give financial aid. Seven thousand
dollars was raised In a few minutes.
The delegates demonstrated the fact that
they arc n department of adept politicians
as well as enthusiastic club women. The
much mooted color Question, which has
been a source of turmoil for sorao time, did
not cause 'a ripple of excitement, because
tome nf tho good manipulators prolonged
the debate on other mnttera until near tho
tlrue set for adjournment, and thcro was
nothing for the body to do but defer ac
tion until the next convention. It Is be
lieved that tho prevailing sentiment was
opposed to the admission of cluba composed
of colored women. The reason for the ac
tion of tho convention was tho tendency of
a majority of the delegates to place this
matter In the state's rights class that Is,
permit each state to, take, such action as
It may desire, but keep tho controversy in
the national federation.
Tho election of officers at the forenoon
session resulted as follows: President, Mrs.
Phillip N. Moore. St. Louis; first vlco pres

go on. Wo walked slowly back toward the
house, meanwhile arranging tho details of
tho attack. When we arrived It mint hnvn
been near midnight. It then occurred to me
mat. ti:o cars would stop In a few minutes,
so I went to a drug store and called n hack,
ordering it tn wait for us nt th lmr.,.

young women stood watch, taking tholr
positions about lOO feet on either side of
mo nouse, whllo I wont to tho rear and
lay down In the weeds. From whore I lay
I could hear voices Inside. I was nurlniiQ
to know what was going on, so I crept up
on my nanua and knees to a point Just be
low one of tho windows. Tho curtain was
up a few Inches and I could sen in. Mrs
Walpa, my wife's mother, was there. Inllr-
ing.cxcucpiy to Anna In somo lauguago 1
couldn't understand. She must hnve como
whllo we were away with tha two drtir
tlves. I could sco by the way Anna acted
that she was being scolded.
"About this time Mrs. Wal nn arnRA tn

go to tno car with her. I crawled up the
embankment to the sidewalk nnH t Innml

"As soon as Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Walpa
had left I went boldly to tho door and
knocked. Tho 16-year-old boy came, opened
the door about- two inches and looked out.
but tho moment he caught sight of me he
jammed it to, turned the key on the Inside
and ran to n window. I could hear him
working at the sash. Peaking around the
comer, I taw him leap out of the window
and run.
"I realized then that tho moment for ac
tion had come. Blowing a whistle, which
was the signal agreed upon, J crawled
through the open window Into tho living
room and unlocked the outside door. I
tried to get Into my wife's bedroom, but
the door was locked and I had to smash It
In. I told her not to be frightened, that I
had come to take her home, and suggested
(bat she- dress as quickly as possible, wlllch
shn proceeded to do,
"I- then went to the outsldo door and
looked out. The two sentries had stopped
Mrs. Brown on tho sidewalk and were en
gaging her In conversation. They wanted
to prevent a scene, If possible, on account
of my wife's hysterical condition, but I
suppose Mrs.' Brown became suspicious,' for
a moment later she appeared nt tho door

but sho was game and showed fight.

"When Anna .'camo out, 'dressed for Ihe
street', Mrs, Brown seized her nnd tried lo
drag her back to her room by force, but I
took a hand at this and for a few minutes
we bad almost a rough and tumble Aght
Then the two young women appeared and
tried to keep Mrs. Brown away. To make
matters worso my wlfn, had another of those
hysterical spells and began to scream and
strike blindly. With Mrs. Brown hanging
to Anna's ankles I bad to virtually drag
both women toward the carrlago by main
force, I don't know how I would have made
out If It hadn't been for the help ot the. two
young women. They managed somehow to
break Mrs, Brown's hold and to detain her
until I could call the driver, when thn four
of us boarded the cab and drove away.
That was the most desperate scrimmage
I ever had In my life. It was after 1
o'clock In the morning when we Anally got
home.

A POSTMAN'S STORY
AN KXIMHUKNCi: DKCIDKDIjY
OUT OP TIIK ORDINARY.
W. Allen, n l.eller furrier for Thir
teen A enrs, .'I'nlks Interest- ,
liiKlv About It,
The postman often has strange experi
ences, one of inesc i-ame recently to .Mr.
C W. Allen of 377 St Albnns street, St.
Paul, Minn., who hns been a lotter carrier
for the past thirteen years. He Is 3S
years old and has pased the greater por
tion ot his life In St. Paul. Owing to ex
posure, Mr. Allen contracted n sovrre caso
of muscular rheumatism, which doctors
tailed to relieve. Hearing of the merits
of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, for Palo People,
ho was persuaded tn try n box. Ills lm
provment dates from that period. To uso
Mr. Alien s own language: "The first box
brought mo the, first relief from suffering I
had experienced lq( weeks; the second mads
me practically well again, and. slnco taking
the third, I h.ue had no recurrence of tho
rheumatism, though It has been more than
,a year slnrc I u'iid Dr. WUIIanis.' Pink Pills.
Why shouldn't I recommend them?"
The blood In rheumatism has an acid Im
purity which Irritates the sensitive tissues
that i-nlte the" Joints nnd cover the muscles,
thus musing Indescribable tortures which
rhrumntlc sufferers endure.
llhc.tim.-vt Ism Is uhynys dangerous, as It Is
liable to attack tho heart. Ycars ngo
those affected were bled, as If taking away
some of the Impure hlnod could remedy the
balance. Tills, folly has been abandoned
ond today physician prescrlbo and' drug
gists recommend the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People, ns these marvel-
'ous, vegetable pills go directly lo the seat
of -the trouble, exerting a powerful Influ
ence lu purifying and enriching tho blood
by eliminating poisonous elements and re
newing health-giving force, thus mnklng a.
potent remedy for curing this disease.
Mr. Allen tonk the one unfailing remedy
for this aflllctlon nnd was cured. Dr. Wil
liams' Pink PJUs for Palo Peoplo will not
only cure rheumatism, but are a positive,
specific for many other diseases. They
are unlike other medicines and act directly
on tho blood nnd nerves. This mokes
them Invaluable in such diseases as loco
motor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus
dance, sciatica, neuralgia,, rheumatism,
nervous headache, thp after-effects of grip,
palpitation nf the heart, pals and sallow
complexions and all forms ot weakness,
either In main or female, Dr. Williams'
Pink PIJIs fqr- Palp People oro sold by all
dealers or will he sent, postpaid, on rpcclpt
of prlqe, fifty cents a box, or six boxes for
two dollars nnd fifty cents, by addressing
Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Schenec
tady, N. V. They arc nevor sold tn bulls
or by tho hundred. Avoid Imitations; sub
stitutes never cured anybody.
