Will Condemn Of re- Alarm Ilove-i.
The failure of the Jfirc alarm box to re
epond to the duties required of It when 111
broUn out In the Clilhtlan home yeotcrda ;
has convinced City Electrician Uradley moi
than ever that It Is ! ils duty to condemn all
of the old boxes In all of his reports for
several years he ha called attention to the
fact that the boxes.'havo become antique in
Btjlo , besides belng > worn out with years of
usaRo and tinker-Ink The recalcitrant box
was ono of the bc t In the circuits. It had
been talicn to the jliop and repaired and al
most reconstructed during the autumn. Im
mediately after tlo | flro ycaterday the box
was taken out and taltcn to the central t > ta-
tion. Northing wa found to be wrong with
It beyond the fact ! that the low temperature
had contracted the metal until thu spring
was unable to move the mechanism. Tha
electrician declares that thcie Is too much
machinery for the ) power of the spring that
Is designed to drive It , and that the prln-
clplo upon which the power U applied Is
vviong. A little molaturo that could produci
tdlght lusting or a sudden cold snap Is llahla
to Incapacitate the boxes ? . It Is only by line
mechanical skill , and constant vigilance that
the boxes have 'been kept In working order
ns long as they\havc. \ The police call ap

The Christian Homo orphanage In this city
was badly elamngeel by flic that broke out In
the attic of the main building nt 7 o'clock
K'Sterelny morning. The building Is a largo
two-story structure with basement and attic ,
constructed of wooel , and was the largest
and most costly of the group of cottages that
constitute ! thu homo. It vsas used as the
pchool room and dormitory for the boys.
Many of the llttlo fcllovvs wcro sleeping In

out dlfllcitlty or confusion ,
The older boys anet about halt of the total
lumber were up and nt breaKfast In the dln-
ng hall. Many of the younger were still
n bad and asleep when the fire was elU-
covered. The first thing that vva.s done after
ho flro alarm had been given was to get the

SAVE SOME OF THE FUHNITOnE.
The Home people , with the assistance of
hundreds of cltl/eus who llockeJ to the
place when It became known that the Home-
property was in danger , succeeded In car
rying out all of the fumlture and propeity
on the first floor , but everything above was
destroyed Theie was no time to save the
beJs and bedding In the dormitory on the
second floor. When Manager Lenin and his
assistants had satisfied themselves that the
last of the little boys had been taken out
the dormitory was filled with stilling smoke.
Nothing was gotten out of the basement ,
but as It was used for an Industrial shop
there was nothing but the tools and lum
ber that could b damaged by the flood of
water thrown Into the building. The beds
and bedding la the dormitory were all new
and had cost the home outside of the do
nations over $100 The attic , which was a
large , partly finished room fitted with shelv
ing , was used for storage purposes and con
tained all ot the clothing of the boys of
the Homo. This represented In actual cash
outlay about $150 , but was worth much
more.
The flro originated In the garret nbovo the
attic next to a big chimney that rises from
the foundation to the roof of the building.
How ill caught Is a mystery. The chimney
was made doubly thick purposely to nuke It
safe against fire. The building is heated by
ono Immense hard coal ttove on the firs'
floor and a large wood stove In the dor
mitory. Flro Is Ucpt going In the stoves
all the time , but a brisker fire was started
In the wooJ rtovo to make the dormitory
more comfortable while the children were
being dressed. H Is supposd that a spark
sent through the chimney from the wood
Ire found a lojlgment on the root and was
fanned Into a blaze by the stiff breeze.
The building was erected to commemo
rate the tenth anniversary of the founding
of the home. March 1C , 1803 , from the pro
ceeds or offerings contributed for that pur-
pore. It cost over $5,000. It was a hand
some structure , forty feet square , and was
the most pretentious of the group of twenty
cottages that constitute the home buildings.
HAD NO INSURANCE.
A singularly unfortunate feature of the
calamity Is the fact that the insurance ex
pired just seven days ago. Manager Lsmen
lias always carried Insurance on every bulld-
Inc In the group , and a risk of $3,000 was
placed on this three ytars ago In the Amer
ican Fire Insurance company of New orlt
City by its agents In this city. Day &
Hess. A peculiar combination of circum
stances caused their bookkeeper to overlook
the fuel that the risk expired January 1C.
A year ago the company ceased doing busi
ness In Iowa and the property was rein
sured. ny an oversight at that time the
icUsuo was not recorded on the new books ,
and when Mr , Lemen , according to his cus
tom , asked Day & Hess to renew all risks
expiring In January , two new policies were
sent down to him. They were received by
his son , and when Mr. Lemen Inquired If
they had arrived was Informed they had.
Mr Day congratulated Mr. Lemen at noon
upon the fact that the loss was partially
covered by Insurance. An hour later he
made the discovery that the policy had
To meet the exigencies of the case the
boys' dormitory was moved to the chapel ,
which Is a very comfortable building. The
destruction of the building and the enforced .
use of the chapel leaves no place where- the ,
homo school can meet.
The firemen suffered Intensely vvhllo
fighting the flro , and some of them were
badly frozen. Chief Templeton had all the
fingers on each hand badly nipped. They
wcro swollen and very painful last evening.
Captain Autry nnd Charley Conlcy wore
also sufferers. Four sections of hose were
filled solidly with Ice and ono burst ,
I'roMt In Wiitrr I lien.
Freezing gas nnd water , pipes caused no
end of trouble yesterday nnd last night.
Plumbers and gas men were wholly unable to
respond to all of the calls mode upon them.
The treat seemed to pencil ate thp earth with
unexampled rapidity and to a greater depth
than for many years previous. Many people
who considered their water pipes to bo frost
proof are lamenting this morning that they
had not been better protected. The earth
wan found to bo frozen to a depth of two and
one-half feet where water pipes were dug up
yesterlay , The Intensity of the cold and the
nakedness of the earth give- promise of In
creased trouble. Apprehension Is not allayed
by the talca of the old Inhabitants. In a
remlnlscuit mood yesterday ono of them re
called a winter that ho declared vvaa an ex
act counterpart of this when the cartb was
frozen to a depth of eight feet.

There were nearly 150 little girls In attend
ance nt Mr. and Mrs. DcLong's Industrial
school for gills on Saturday afternoon ,
Moro than twenty women were present lm
turllng Instruction In plain sowing. Each
little gill was busv upon some garment she
wr.a making for herself. Classes wcro
grouped closely together , and yet the room *
at 209 Main street , were tested to their ut-
moil capaflty. Mrs. C. T. Officer baa Jo-
\oled several years to the office of super
intendent , and she continues to tnkc a great
Interest In the work. The distributing de
partment , where all cloth and sowing mule-
tlals arc given out as needed , Is In charge
of Mr * . Henry PeLong , with Miss Chloe
Drldcnatcln cs ntclsUiil. Mrs. A. C. Harl-
Intr was found busy cutting garments for the
little seamstresses. In addition to thenc ,
there hai always been n corps of teachers In
charge of the classes , Into which the school
ls divided , according to ability of the schol-
nrs. Tollovvlng are the women who act sa
teachers nt the present time : Mrs A. H.
Moore , Mr . Fred Davis , Mrs. Lyons , Mrs.
Warren , Mrs. Sarah Wallace , Mrs. Smith ,
Mrs. Henncsey , Mlsa M. nice , Miss Corn
Woodbury , Miss Maud Cousins and Mlas
Ilalnard , Moro teachers "nre needed , us
many of them have larger classes than they
can conveniently handle.
Every Saturday at 2:30 : the school Is called
to order nnd a half hour devoted to a talk
by some person to the scholars , and to
singing and other exercises before the sewing
beglrn. Yeatcrday Mrs. J , J. Hun j an nf
Omalii made a very entertaining address.
She has been engaged for n number ot years
In missionary work In Minneapolis. Among
the vbit013 were Miss Caroline Dodge , W.
W. Wallace nnd D C. Uloomer. The nl-
tcnilanco was 133. When the school was or
ganized by Mrs. DcLong five years ago , there
were no very , advanced methods of teach
ing. Two years ago a regular system wafl
adopted , such as Is iH'eJ in Inrgo institu
tions t of the kind all over Iho country. It
Is I about as near perfect as could be Im-
aglncd , and Is well worth a little Investiga
tion ' by any one Intercviled.
Mr. DeLong slalcs that ho has not done
much i to Increase the attendance , on account
of the Ilmllctl amount of room that has be-jn
at his command , but that the members are
steadily i Increasing without any effort on hla
part I Since the school was organized the
school ' has occupied six different locations ,
as ' follows : 238 Ilroadway , 15 and 17 Hryant
stieet \ , basement of Congregational church
150 Broadway , 601 Broadway and 209 Main
street. Some of these have been tempo-
rarlly ' donated for the use of the school , and
others given nt a nominal rental. AVhat Is
now needed Is not only a larger place , but
one ' that can be seemed for a term of years ,
thus giving more permanency to the Insti
tutlon. ' In view of the great benefit.that
j this work has been to the poor children of
Council Bluffs , and the Interest that lisa
been ' taken in It by many representative
people ' of the city , a meeting should be
called ! by the citizens to arrange for estab
lishing ' in a suitable location. No doubt
fciich a place could be secured for a number
of j years upon \cry easy terms , If sufficient
Interest were aroused. Either of the rooms
In the Elseman building would be an Ideal
place , as the light Is gooj , and the dimen
sions sufficient to accommodate hundreds of
pupils. ]

WASHINGTON , Jan. 24. ( Special. ) A sub-
cct of far reaching Interest to the people of
Jcbrr.ska , next to that of beet sugar and
hlcory. which will he ellscilssed In the ways
nd means committee , will bo the laying ot
duty upon cattle from the border states of
lextco. The present duty upon Mexican , cat-
lo of 20 per cent ad valorem was In force for
many yeara prior to the enactment of the
IcKlnley bill , nnd during this period the
rowth of the rattle Industry nnd exports of
attic nnd beef products vvns simply cnor-
nous. Unelci the McKlnley law the tariff
vns raised to a specific duty of $10 per head ,
vhlch on. the low grade Mexican cattle
mounted fn effect to an ad valorem duty of
ivcr 100 per cent , nnd resulted In absolute
irohlbltlan of Imported cattle from Mexico.
The Wilson hill , now In force , rc-cnncted the
ate In force prior to the McKlnley bill ,
tamely , 20 per cent ael valorem. Under this
ate , according to President E. P. lllpley of
ho Atchhon , Topckn & Snntn Te sjsteni
\ittlo have been brought acrcsa the line nnd
ed In Nebraska , Kansas nnil Colorado. The
vajs and means committee will tn.ko up this
ubjcct of a duty on Mexican tattle , but It la
bought upon romevvhat different Hues than
leretoforo. Whether , however , the duty
hall ho laid upon the head or upon the pound
s n ejuestlon that the 'TNbrnska delegation In
congress cannot agree upon. Congressman
"Inlncr , who has given considerable study to
he subject of a duty upon Mexican cattle ,
i ml realizing the Importance the subject
jenis upon Nebraska Interests , says that he
> ellovcs that the duty should be laid upon
he pound. In that way the very youngest
cattle would be shipped Into Nebraska nnd
'he other states mentioned and be fed there
or market purposes. He says that If the
duty wcro laid upon the pound the cattle
vould come In tuuch freer from dlseaso than
f laid upon the head , which would permit.
nny nnd all cattle to be Impoited for feeding
imposes Of course , the duty would not bo
allowed to he prohibitive , for , In that event ,
lie- farmers west of the Missouri would be
nrgcly Injured by curtailing their ability
o ellsprao to good advantage of the > gialn
nnd other products which they are now uv
abled to feed to cattle profitably.
Congressman Mercer reasons that the per
lound duty , as suggested by Mr. Halner , Is
n the nature of an ad valorem duty cs
against n specific duty , which has alwajs
jecn the principle of the republican party ,
flu U In favor of a duty upon the head , nnd
jscs vciy much the bame argument that Mr.
Unlnrr does In declaring for the pound duty.
3omo Interests In the westiaro Urging upon
the wavs and means comnilttco not tn ad
vance the present into , vvhllo others believe
: hat In laying a pound duty upon cattle from
the border states of Mexico they would be
fostering an Industry vvhlelh Is destined to
be productive of magnificent results within
a verv few jears. and the' < fced now raised
by the farmers of Nebraska , Kansas , Iowa
and Colorado will go Into the making of
cattle for eastern markets. '

to secure data from the factory at that

several hundred acres of laud near the city ,
mostly on the bottom land , which would
bo greatly enhanced with a sugar refinery

U Is estimated that a factory equipped

NEW YORK , Jan. 24. A special to the
rose from West Point , N. Y. , says : tlones
by the hundreds have been unearthed right
.milcr the Officers' club rooms. The ] ' are
11 human bones In good condition , but needy -
> ody knows when they were placed dV how
hey got there. It might have been n cen-
nry ago , but the probabilities are , Judging
rom the stories told by old residents , that
hey are the bones of soldiers killed In the
evolutionary war. It la known that spies
and lories hanged on the plains were burled
ijy the patriots where the mess hall now
stands.
What disposition will be made of them
lias not yet been announced but It Is likely
: hey will be burled In the cemetery.
Coroner Miller of Highland Falls got an
nkllng of the find , but a1 } coroners are al-
owed In West Point only by permission of
lie authorities , he has a small chance of
liolillng an inquest , as it U clearly evident
that there was no foul play In connection
with the burying of the bones
Colonel Ernest Is now In Washington , and
t is probable the matter will remain as It
now elands until his return. In the mean
time the 'bones ' have been placed where no

WASHINGTON , Jnn. 24. The senate pro
gram this week IB rendered very uncertain by
the condition of the Nlcrtrngunn bill. With
that measure out of the way the bankruptcy
bill probably will bo glvju the right of way
early In the week , but even with the road
cleared to the extent of the removal ot the
Nicaragua bill It te not probable any head
way would bo made with the bankruptcy
bill before Wcdncselay , notwithstanding It Is
Iho special order for Monday. The tlmo of the
senate after 3 o'clock Monday will be de
voted to eulogies upon the lain Speaker Crisp
nnd the tlmo previous to that hour after the
disposal ot the routine morning business will
bo consumed by Senator Turplo In a speech
discussing the Cameron resolution. The
speech may bo broken In upon at 2 o'clock
by ft contention for precedence between the
friends of the Nicaragua bill and the sup
porters of the bankruptcy bill , but If so It Is
likely that the contest will be postponed tea
a moro convenient season.
U Is known that Senator Turplo will take
advanced ground favorable to Cuban recog
nition , nnd It Is hinted that ho will tnko
occasion to criticise Mr. Olnoy's position
sharply. Mr. Turplo's t'pcech may prove to
be the llrst of several on the Cuban question , ,
but the committee on foreign relations la
manltcattiiR no disposition to press the reso
lutions lo n vote.
Tuesday Senator Chandler expectrt lo se
cure a vote on hlo bill providing for the rep
resentation of thh country nt an Interna
! tional monetary conference. There will bo
several short speeches nnd more or less run
ning debate on this measure , but It Is be
lieved all substitutes and amendments will
be voted down and the LIU passed bsforo the
day set for Its consideration. Senatoi Cam
eron has a. tubstltutP requiting this govern
ment to take the Initiative In calling a coii-
fereuc- . which may give the moveis of the
original t'ill more or less trouble.
The bankruptcy bill will bo debated at
cc-nbhtcrablo length when reported , though
Senator George , Its especial champion , as
reported to the senate , Is absent from the
city.
Senator Morgan will mnke a strenuous ef
fort to prevent the Nicaragua canal bill from
losing Its place ns the finished business on
the calendar , and 'It la undeietood will sub
mit amendments which will meet the de
mands of those who hold that the bill re
quires further work by the committee In
view of the new position of Nicaragua , as
| I dcvc'oped ' by Senor Uodorlgu 's letter. The
will take the stand that the bill
| I should bo amended In the senate , It not sat-
isfactoiy. nnd that It should then beolcel
upon and sent back to the committee.
Senator-elect Kcnney of Delaware may pre
sent hla crcelcntlals during the week , but

WASHINGTON , Jan. 21. The rncst Inter
esting feature of the house program for
the coming week , unless the Nicaragua canal
bill should be taken up , which , In view of
late developments , ecems hardly probable ,
will be the fight against the conference re
port of the Immigration bill. Mr. Barthold
of Mississippi , who made an Ineffectual at
tempt to prevent the bill from going to con
ference , will lead the opposition to the bill ,
as agreed upon by the conferees. There
seems to be little doubt that the friends
of the measure will be triumphant In the
end , as the sentiment in favor of an Immi
gration bill in the house Is , as shown by
the \otcs on previous occasions , In a strong
majority. Nevertheless , Mr. Bartholdt pro
poses to do all In his power to defeat the
conference icport. Two appropriation bills ,
agricultural and Indian , will probably con
sume the remainder of the week. There
are > some features of both hills which may
cause considerable debate. Such time as
can be spared will be given to the commit
tees to call up such bills as have been re
ported by them. Tomorrow , under the rules ,
is District of Columbia day.

The offlclM returns of the City of N&w
York show that more than one-third of nil
death1) are from consumption , pneumonia cr
grip. When we stop to calmly think over
this fart It seems really awful. And yet
every case , without exception , started from
small beginnings. A cough In the morning ;
tickling In the throat ; a thick , phlegmy dis
charge ; chilliness at night ; difficult breath
ing ; a tightness across the chest ; thcoo and
many more symptoms Indicate the presence
ot that terrible disease which , unices checked ,
moans certain death , with long , painful
suffering.
In view of such serious and ovcr-prcacnt
facts the surxcstlona nnd advlco of the most
eminent physicians are of the greatest value.
Dr. John Gardner , ono ot the most eminent
physicians In London , says : "Science , com *
inon sense , Holy Scriptures , nnd all experi
ence testify to the benefits deilvcd from the
use ot pure whiskey. "
Dr. 1) . II. Darker says : "I have used and
examined Duffy's puio malt whiskey and
nnd It the best I ever tried. "
Thcso truths should serve as n guide toi

no matter by what path It may come. Wade
