Mr. J. L.. Darker, Assistant Post

"Warner's Safe Curo has cured mo ot

the best tonic I ever took and it has
permanently cured mo Of what my
doctor called, ono .of the worst cases
ot kidney disease, ho ever camo across

, Warner's Safe Cure Is purely veg
etable and contains no harmful
drugsj It docs not .constipate; It Is n
most valuable nnd effective tonic; It
is a stimulant to digestion and awak
ens the torpid liver, putting tho pa
tient into tho very best 1 receptive

poscu tno reaucuon ot quiy iv 'cuna, as
likely to be a roenaco to Porto Rico sugar
exports. Already Cuba had placed a $12'
duty ,on Porto. Rico, coffee,, thus injuring
tha trade, do Vellance was now placed In a
continuance of the sugar trade.
Mr. Mehdo'a "of tho Cuban delegation
made a rejoinder to Mr. Degctau, expressing
surprlso that Porto Rico should cast her
Influence against Cuba nfter Porto Rico had
reaped all benefits pt tho war, which Cuba
conducted. "Wo had tho fighting," sold
Senor Mendoza, "and now they get free
sugar to, tho United States on account ot
our war."
"Wo had no fighting to do," responded
Mr. Dcgotau, "becauso wo received tho
Americans with open arms."
W. L. Churchill of Day City, Mich., chair

RIPPEY, In.. Jan. 28. (Special.) Fire
originating In tho basement of tho Rlppey
Mercantile company at 1 o'clock this morn
ing destroyed noarljr $40,000 worth of prop
erty. Four brick buildings were burned to
the ground and several others were more
or leas damaged.
Tho Are Is supposed to havo originated
from the explosion ot a lamp or an oil
stove' In the basement of tho Rlppey storo,
whore It Is known thoy kept them burning
to protect some vegetables from the cold.
Mrs. Lovojoy, who, with her husband .and
children, occupy rooming quarters over
Bullock & Cramer's storo, waa tho first to
discover the flames, which were then burst
ing from tho basomont. Dr. Lovojoy lmmo
dlatey summoned the Are department, but
bofore assistance coud bo rendered the
Rlppey block, tho Commercial bank build
ing and Bullock & Cramer's -general mer
chandise Htoro wero enveloped in flames,
Which threatened to spread to surrounding
buildings. The flro department concen
trated Its efforts to theso buildings' tn dan
ger, keeping the flro confined to tho four
brick structures which It was known could
not bo saved. 1
P. M. Osborne's drug store, across tlio
street from the Rlppey block, was fn Immi
nent dangor at ono time. The entire plate
glass front was mashed In and the weather
boarding burned from tho framework on
ono side. Tho Rlppey hotel, farther down
tho Btrcet from tho Osborno drug store,
caught flrp at an early hour, but- quick,
snappy work on tho part of tho Are dopart
mont saved this building. It Is owned by
tho Charles Kahlcr cstato of Dea Moines
and Is fully covered by Insurance. A barber
shop, also belonging to P. M. Osborne; was
slightly damaged. It was on Are several
timesbut tho department was able to save
It from destruction.
Tho following losses, or estimated losses,
nnd Insuranco are roportcd:
Dr. Lovejoy, ofllce and household Axturcs,
'$1,000, No Insurnnco.
Bullock & Cramer, contents, $3,000. Par

Bullock & Cramer block, 'owned by Dr.

$12,000. Partially covered by Insurance.
Rlppoy block, owned by A. P. Ollllland,
$5,000. Partially covered by Insurance.
Commercial bank, contents nnd building,
ownod by F. Westloy, $3,000. Partially cov
ered. For some tlmo after tho flro department
arrived frequent explosions In tho basement
of tho Rlppey block prevented effective
work. The management had stored there
largo quantities ot gunpowder nnd flour and
almost every time tho Aremen attempted to
forco their way tn they were driven back by
the torrlflo smoko and flames blown out
through the doors and windows by the forco
ot tho powder. It was not until after this
bad entirely spent Itself that they were
enablod to get at tho source of tho trouble
and stlflo It.
No accidents are reported, though tho men
went unhesitatingly Into tho moat danger
ous places. At the Rlppey storo they wero
forced out a half dozen times by the ex
plosives, bu after Hi" effects of each re
port had died away they again ventured In
with Btrlngs of hose, playing them with
force and effect on the fiercely burnlug flro.

TECUMSEH, Neb.. Jan. 28. (Special Tel
egram,) A destructive Are visited the town
of Crab Orchard, Afteen miles southwest of

tho best building blocks, all two-story,
brick structures, were ruined, with prac
tically all tho contents. Tlio Crab Orchard
bank building, at' tho chief corner of the
main streot, waa the Arst to fall. The Are
evidently originated In the furnace room of
this building. The town Is poorly equipped
for lighting Are, the night was a bad one
and the Aamea rapidly spread to the ad-
Joining two buildings, By tho greatest ef
fort tho flames w?re checked beforo the
fourth structure,, a now brick, became fairly
Ignited,
The bank building was owned Jointly by
nothell Bros., who operated tho bank, and
the local branch, of the Ancient Order of
United Workthenj the lodge occupying the
second story of the building. Tho second
building was owned by Rothelt, Bros, nnd
was occupied by Richardson & Co., the
Rothell constituting the company, with a
steck of general merchandise. The third
building was the property of Postmaster
F. M, Sherrelt and waa occupied by hlra
ns postofllce nnd hardware store.
The only property saved from the three
buildings was the equipment and records of
the pestomce, These Mr. Sherrelt rescued
and placed in another building, where he
will operate tho office for the present. It
is noiievcd the contents of the bank vault
are all right, hut, that has not been opened.
Rothelt Bros, place their loss on the two
buildings, gtock of goods dnd bank furni

ONE ON THE BOYS,
Mother nattier (lot the Start of Them.
Sometimes tho mother plays a. turn on
the young people and greatly to their bon
eflt. A young lady in Memphis, Tenn., Miss
B. Dye ot 22a Carroll Ave., comments In
an Interesting way about the harmloss little
deception her mother played upon one ot
the 'family during the summer.
She says: "Every member of our family
could write a testimonial about Postum
Food Coffee and what It nas done lor us.
Father has really been made over since
quitting coffee and using Postum, but I
must toll you about Brother.
"When he camo home from college last
summer ho waa thin and looked, dread
fully. We questioned him about his food
add, drink. Ho said he drank coffee, 'Of
course I can't get along without a good
cup of coffeo three times a day." Mother
did not Bay anything to him, but' mado
Postum for him Just the came, and at the
next meal he compllmentod .her on the
coffee. Several times he said, 'Now If I
Just had such coffeo as this at school I
could make better averages In ray studies.'
"So during the whole summer bo drank
Postum, thinking It was strong coffee, and
we could all sco, from day to day, how
much he was improving in health. His
complexion gradually cleared up, and he
gilned In every way. When' ho went back
In tho fall Mother told him the Secret she
had kept for over" three months, and put
several packages of Postum tn his trunK.
"Yon may depend upon It, the lesson waa
one ho will nevor forget. My younger
brother quit coffee about a year ago and has
boen using Postum Food Coffee, and he has
been built un from a regular Invalid uutll
ho Is now a fat, rosy-cheeked boy, full of
life and fun. Just tho other day ho re
marked he was getting along so' much bet

wondered what caused the change. Mother
remarked, 'It Is Postum.' "
