Chicago, July 5. Three unsuccessful
efforts have been made within three
hours . to burn the Mecca apartment
buildings, the big flats occupying the en
tire block at Thirty-fourth and State

vailed .among occupants of the . building

prompt work by the department pre'
vented further damage than was caused
by smoke.

their houses when another alarm ame
in from same quarter. The second fire
was found in the basement also. Men,
women and children ran through the
halls and into the street terror-stricken,
but the quick work of the firemen reas
sured them, and they returned to their
abodes. After the first attempt the
police were summoned, and it was while
. they were being assigned to their places
that the second fire broke oat.
Two hours later another alarm was
sent in. This time the fire was on the
north end of the building. The firemen,
however, were at the building in a jiffy
and the . blaze was extinguished A
search disclosed the fact that inflamm
able material has been placed in several
parts of the building, and the attempt at
arson was so plain that Lieutenant Bon
field sent a large detail of police to guard
the building all day. The affair will be
investigated.

A Cyclone In Arkansas.
Pine Bccff, Ark., July 7. A terrible
cyclone swept over this city tonight.

damage which must have been consider
able is not accessible. - Small buildings
and dwellings in the city were hurled

has yet been reported. It was followed
by a deluge of rain.

from indigestion, bowel troubles and
liver disorders with their accompanying
disagreeable symptoms, because they
think they have to. If they would take

were seriously injured. Cooper Hodg
kins dry goods store, the Methodist,
Christian and colored ' Methodist
churches, a dozen residences and as
many barns were totally recked. Those
killed outright are: L. Hibbs, Mrs.

San Francisco, July 6. The Eman
uel Baptist church, ia which two girls
were murdered a few months ago, will
be reopened for regular service one week
from tomorrow, and plans have finally
been arranged by which it is hoped to
pay off the burdensome debt of $12,000
that now hangs over the church. The
recent lecture, ."Murders" by the Rev.
Dr. Gibon, was not successful, ao the
projected tour will be abandoned, and
other means pursued to raise the desired
amount. The general sentiment against
the- lecture scheme had much to do
with the giving up of the trip.
You cannot work well unless you fee
well. - No one can fee! well with a dis
ordered liver or diseased kidney. Dis
eases in the ' organs should receive
prompt attention, as neglect will lead to
much misery and sorrow. Dr. J. H.
McLean's Liver and Kidney Balm should
be taken' as soon as the first symptoms
of trouble are manifest. It is well
known to all dealers in medicine as a
safe and reliable cure for diseases in the

Portland ori the inspiration of the Bible,
Mrs. Smith is an eloquent speaker.
Great preparations were made for eel
ebrating the Fourth and a large crowd
was in town. A large platform had
been made and beautifully decorated, an
orchestra and choir secured, and just as
the forty-two girls in white the goddess
of liberty were marching , to their posi
tions, a shower came up. The cry was
soon raised "To the schoolhonse!" and
about 1200 soon found shelter, the l&rg
est crowd ever in any one building in
Antelope. The exercises were then con
tinned without interruption. It takes
something worse a Kansas cvclone to
interfere with a celebration at Antelope,
Some fun-loving youngster decorated
the ice cream stand that had been erect

signs from the merchants' stores,

WANTS A THIRD TERM
Cleveland a Candidate for
Ee-election.
LAMONT'S ELECTIONEERING TOUR
Baby Bath's New SisterThe Klcara
Sua Canal Commission Leave
for Borne.
New York, July 8. A Washington
special says: Not only is Mr. Cleveland
a candidate for ibe third term, but indi
cations are not lacking that he is engaged
in an aggressive canvass in this interest.
Secretary Lamont's tour among the
Western army posts is in reality . an
electioneering device. It has been the
custom of recent secretaries to investi
gate the condition of the army at regular
stations, and this custom Lamont found
specially adaptable to his political de
signs. If Mr. Cleveland expects to be
president again be is enough of a poli
tician to know that the achievement of
his ambition will require the most skill
ful manipulating. Secretary Lamont's
mission was to get in touch with demo
cratic sentiment through the West, and
to find out exactly 'what needs to be
done to conciliate Western sentiment
and bring support to the third-term
scheme. ,
So far as the East is concerned, Mr,
Cleveland has no anxiety. He believes
that the issue of "sound money," which
be thinks he has created, will be snffi
cient to secure him the support of the
New England and the Middle states, al
though he understands the difficulties
that will confront him to New York
But when he was nominated in 1892, it
was done by delegates from the South
and West, and it is for these that be is
most solicitous now.
While there is no other aspirant for
the nomination sufficiently .conspicuous
to attract to himself the attention of the
great masses of the party, Mr. Cleveland
is confident that the movement of sent!
ment will be toward him. From now
till the time of the convention, with a
republican congress, Cleveland, as
president, will be the central democratic
figure, and whether the democratic
leaders like it or not, on him, he thinks,
the eyes of the - party must be turned
daily for guidance and instruction.
BABY RCIU'S NEW SISTER
The Little Stranger Arrived at Gray
Gables Yesterday.
New York, July 8. A special to a
local paper from Buzzard's Bay, Mass.,
says : "There is rejoicing at Gray Ga
bles, the president's summer home, over
the arrival of another little girl, which
interesting event occurred at 4 :30 o'clock
Sunday afternoon.' The' little stranger
was the general subject of conversation
amoag all people in the vicinity of Mar
ion The mother of Mrs.' Cleveland, Mis.
Perrin, was not with her daughter when
the child was born, but has been noti
fied and will come to Gray Gables at
once.
The president's family now consists of
three children, all girls. Ruth, the
eldest, was born in New York after the
close of Mr. Cleveland's first term. She
Ib a pretty brunette, much resembling
her mother. Esther, the second child
was born at the White bouse about two
years ago. Esther is a blonde, and is
very pretty. She is not so well known
to the public as is her elder sister, whose
pictures have been widely published.
Esther's resemblance to her father, how
ever, is said to be as striking as that of
Ruth to her mother.
Both children have been reared in
every luxury that money and position
could command. When they travel,
each is attended by a nurse who never
allows her charge to leave her eight.
On several occassions reports have
been circulated of attempts to kidnap
the two little girls, and, sb a consequence,
they are always closely watched by the
secret service.
Dr. Bryant, the attending physician,
has attended Mrs. Cleveland at the birth
of all three children, and accompanied
her when she canre here from Washing
ton. He is a' resident of New York, and
it is at his home that the president stays

t!e new comer is a "fine little girl."
Numerous messages of congratulation to
the president have been received.

New York, July 8. A special to the
World from Balize says :
The Indian cutters complain that
the adoption by the colony of the
gold standard has cut. their wages in two.
They sent one of their chiefs here to de
mand that the silver coins, which they
received in payment for their work, be
accepted at their par value, and not sub
jected to a discount. It is impossible to
convince, the Indians that .the gold
standard is of advantage to the country,
as they point to the fact that they have
been juggled out of half their pay.
. Yucatan residents here want the col
ony annexed to Mexico, which still
maintains a right to this region. The
Yucations argue that this case is pre
cisely similar to that of Venezuela,
where the English have wrongfully pos
sessed themselves of territory.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than, all other diseases .
pat together, and until the last few '
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly,
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by,F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure oh the market. It is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. - It acts directly on the blood
mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes
timonials. Address. .

Colon, July 8. The Nicaragua canal
commissioners will leave here today.'
They say it will be decided after getting

The local press thinks it is a pity that.

The constitution that has been broken
down or weakened by long standing dis
orders in the liver and kidneys, is ill
fitted to withstand the encroachment of
disease. Such a person takes cold easily,
cannot stand fatigue, and in cases of epi
demics, is the first to fall a victim. The
proper course is to remove the cause of
weakness by treating the liver and kid
neys. Dr. J. II. McLean, s Liver and
Kidney Balm will reach the seat of
trouble and restore the diseased organs
to healthy functional activity. Increased
nourishment of the body will follow and
the patient will rapidly regain health
