Nebraska City special: A small, one-story frame bonso in tbe north western part of tbe city, occupied by William Van and bis wife, was de stroyed by fire early tbis morning. But'little was saved, Mr. Van.and bis wife escaping only witb tbeirnigbt clotbing. According to Mr. Van's story, be is a fire baunted man, baving escaped only witb bis life no less than four teen times. When bo was a child in Rochester, N. Y., be was carried from a burniug tenement bouse just before tbe walls fell, burying tbe room in which he had been sleeping. His parents moved to Rome in (be same state, aud bad hardly settled dovai before their dwelling was con sumed, the boy William escaping in a fit condition for an artist's life model. Two years later, still in Eome, he was playing with some other boys in a stable when it caught fire from some unknown cause and burned to tbe ground. At the age of 13 he let t Home auu went to New York City, where bo was caught by a fire on Greene street, where he was sleeping, sustaining in juries which confined him to the hos pital for several weeks by his leap from a window in escaping. Iu 1861 ho was working in Colt's armory at Hartford, Conn., when it burned, and" again had a narrow es cape. Two years later he was at Portland, Mo., on that ever memorable Fourth of Julv, the celebration of which cost tho city nearly 10,000,000. An active, lithe young fellow, he was on this occasion at tho upper story of a frame bouse, throwing household goods to those below, when the brick wall of an adjoining house fell, crushing tbe one he was in. a falling timber breaking bis arm as he jumped into the street. Van had only been in Chicago three months when the hrst great lire oc curred in that city. His next expe rience was, at Peoria,Ill where be was again caught while asleep iu a in a boarding house, losing his trunk, and in fact all be possessed. From Peoria he went to Newton, Iowa, aud the very night of bis ar rival the station bouse burned, con taining all of bis personal effects. In attempting to rescue his goods he was severely burned about tho face and hands. Less than a week after his boaid-ing-houso in the same town was burned, and ho was once more thrown on the tender mercies of tho world with nothing iu his own language, bnt a necktie and a shoestring."' From Nowtou he went to Omaha and secured work in the Union Pa cific car shops. The blacksmith shop took fire in less than a week, and in trying to extinguish it ho was cut off by the llames and only rescued by heroic efforts on the part of the fire men. At Pueblo ho kept bachelor's hall and was burned out by tbe careless ness of a companion in emptying tbe the hot ashes of a pipe on a pile of inflammable matertal. At the time of tbe Zoo theater fire at Leadville he was stauding near tho burning building when the cry was raised that the walls were falling. He tumbled backward, and the next moment the spot where he stood was covered with debris. His last ex perience took place the other day, and he philosophically remarked that it was no worse or no better than the previous ones.

Address ing in his most polite manner, he asked, "Are you one of the foreign ers, sir?'' "I am," was the reply, "I come from Chile." "Shake," ex claimed tho policeman, "I am a for eigner myself. I como from Ireland." Catarrh Cured, A clergj-man, after years of suffer ing from that loathsome disease, Ca tarrh, and vainly trying every known remedy, at last found a recipe which completely cured and saved him from death. Any sufferer from this dread ful disease sending a self addressed stamped envelope to Prof. J. A. Law rence, 88 Warren St., New York City, will receive the recipe free of charge. It is claimed that the water of a certain spring in Georgia will cure a person of the appetite for strong drink. It has been properly labeled and persons who can read are in no danger.

Literary Gems Unconsciously Produced by the Intelligent Compositor- A iNew .Brighton eaitor wrote a notice about the Fort Wayne road, but it appeared "Pish Wagon road." A New England paper told about "a drove of hogs floating down the Connecticut river," instead of "a drive of logs." An Atlantic editor discussed the political situation in a comprehensive editorial and headed it ''Let TJs Ex plore." He neglected to read the proof, and it appeared under the cap tion "Let TJs Explode," A resident of Worcester, Masa., tried to advertise for a fawn colored bull terrier pup, which had strayed away from homo, and learned by the next day's paper that it was a "a fire alarm bell tower key ho had lost." A noted Chicago divine preached a sermon in which he used the quota queta quota teon: "And he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom." The printer set it: "And he saw Abra ham afar off, and a horse's ears in Boston." In a lecture at Tremont Temple, Boston, Bev. Joseph Cook asked his audience: "Was St. Paul a dupe?" In a report of the leoture Mr. Cook was made to pronounce tho start ling cenundrum: "Was St. Paul a Dude?" An Indiaua paper found it neces sary to publish the following correc cerrec correc teon: "For 'burglar meeting' in the heading of tho article in our last is sue relating to the proceedings of the town council read regular meeting.' " Whittier's "Brewing of Soma" fig ured in a Cincinnati paper as tho "Burning of Laura," and another pa per of that city, wishing to bestow "a word of compliment" on a local per formance, managed to give pnblioity to "a word of complaint." It was a Boston newspaper which made its dramatic critic say: "The toast for Irving, like the toast for olives, must be cut elevated." What the critic wrote was "The taste for Irving, like tho taste for olives, must bo cultivated." A young clergyman iu a western town sent a notice to the local paper that he would deliver a sermon on "The Belation of Ministers to their Parishes," and-he was surprised the next day to learn that the oompositor had changed his subject to "The Ke lations of Ministers to their Phari sees." Not long ago a Western Union telegraph operator found the words "orates frateres" in a special dispatch about the "praying brothers." It is not definitely known whether the telegrapher or the compositor at tempted to translate tho words, but it is certain they appeared in a Min neapolis paper: "Oh, rats, father." Not long ago a novel depicted a pretty two-headed boy playing on the "green" secure from hunters of cur iosities and agents of dime museums. Tho boy was not such a natural phe nomenon as he seemed, however, for a simple transposition of two letters had changed him from "a tow headed" j'oungster into one with du plicate heads. Another daily had occasion not long ago to say: "In tho letter in last Friday's issue about ticket spec ulation in Berlin, in speaking of th.e Schauspiel hau3, or theater proper, the copyist tried to write as tho Nau thor did, that it was devoted to 'non musical' dramatic performances, but the typo made it 'nonsensical.' "' An editorial note in a recent issue of a Pittsburgh religious weekly is as follews: "A couple of errors es caped the eye of the proof-reader in an article under the heading: 'Isle of the Sea,' in last week's issue. Iu fourth line of fourth paragraph it should be 'needs' and not 'deeds.' Near the close 'Captain Gardner.' for 'Captain Sardines.' " The typos usually make their errors 'non-sensical," as was the case when, a St. Louis paper said: "The stay at Indianapolis proved a relief from the monetary which is inimitable on a thirty-hour cautionery journey." The writer wanted to say: "The stay at Indianapolis proved a relief from the monotony which is inevitable on a thirty-hour continu ous journey Ayer's Pills are an invaluable rem edy for all diseases of the stomach, liver, and bowels.
