CONNELLSVILLE. Pa.. Nov. 19. At the Overholt distillery, at Broadford, today, S10.000 gallons of whisky fur nished a spectacular fire, entailing- a loss of 51.000.000. The main bonded warehouse was burned to the ground. A steady northeast wind, which blew the Hames toward the Youghlogheny River, saved the town of Broadford, the buildings of the H. C. Frlck Coke Company " and the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad station from destruction. Smoke was first seen Issuing- from the third story, which was alongside the Baltimore & Ohio tracks. Joseph McDonald and George Patlekln, em ployes, climbed up the fire escape and opened one of the small Iron doors. They were caught In a cloud of smoke, which suffocated them, and they drop- ped unconscious on the fire escape. They were rescued by other workmen and a general alarm was sounded. The blue-tinged flames from the burning alcohol were soon shooting more than' 100 feet into the air. As barrels of old rye whisky on each of the four floors burst, the blazing liquid was splashed In all directions. The main track of the railroad was kept clear of debris and passenger trains shot past at such speed as to avoid damage from the Intense heat. Calls for help were sent to Connells vllle. Unlontown and McKcesporu Broadford is but two miles from here, and the Connellsvllle fire department on a special train reached the scene quickly. The men by hard work man aged to savo the buildings near by. and the calls to the two other towns were withdrawn. The ruined building: and Its contents were still burning: fiercely at midnight, but the structures surrounding- It have been so thorough ly soaked with water that no further loss Is feared. It Is supposed that the fire started either from spontaneous combustion or from a spark thrown by a passing lo comotive down one of the shafts. The Overholt plant Is practically owned by H. C. Frlek and the Mellons of Pitts burg. HALF A BLOCK IS BURNED Loss at Birmingham, Ala., Will Be Very Heavy. BIRMINGHAM. Ala.. Nov. 20. (2 A. M.) A solid half block of buildings was totally destroyed by fire which broke out shortly after midnight at the corner of Third avenue and Nineteenth street. The loss at this hour, 2 o'clock. Is esti mated at $150,000. The amount of insur ance Is unknown. The heaviest losers will be the Alabama Penny Savings Bank and the People's Telephone Exchange, adjoining. A four itory structure adjoining the store of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb was entirely bumcd. WORK OF B6YS' BRIGADE Denial Is Made That It Fosters a Military Spirit. PORTLAND. Nov. 19.-(To the BJltor.)-t ob serve In the Thursday Oregonlan a partial re port of the quarterly conference of the Frlenus" Church at Sunnyslde, In which a protest Us made aj-alnst the- formation of a boys' brigade, flnt. an txlnr detrimental to the best Interests of the community, and. second, us tendlnc to foster military spirit amons boys. First Tho "Friends" may not know that a company of the Iloyy Brltadc has been In existence In Sunnyslde for quite a number of years, and baa done more good among the boys there than any other organisation. In fact, the principal of the Sunnyslde School two years ago a!d that It was due entirely to the Boys' Brigade that "hoodlumlsm." once so prevalent anions the boys there, has been suppressed, and he believed the Boys' Brigade to b the mort upllftlnz Influence they had among boys. Similar remarks to this about the great good the Boys Brigade has done and Is doing are made in all parts of the world. Second The Boya" Brigade Is not Intended to and does not footer the military Solrtt. The military drill and gymnastics are only the means used to ccure the Interest of the boys, and through these Influences habits of obedience, reverence, discipline and self-respect are unconsciously learned by the boya. The Boys' Brigade, which Is a world-wide organ ization, has for Its object "the advancement of Christ kingdom a mens boys and the pro motion of all that tends towards a true Chris tian manliness"; and therefore the "Friends speak Injudiciously when they describe the movement an being "antagonistic to the spirit of peace and good will and tho clear teach ings of ChrUt." If the "Friend" would study the method and accomplishments of the Boys" Brigade, not only In this country, but throughout the world, I am sure they would not denounce the Boys Brigade as being "detrimental to the best Interests of the community." but would rather help It In every possible way. Were there more Boys Brigades throughout this country there would not be uch a necessltr for prisons and penitentiaries; for the boys of today aro the men of the future, and If our youth of today are trained In ways of purity, honesty, courage, truth, religion, etc and to take proper care of their minds and bodies, our politicians, business men and working men of too future will be true, honest, courageous-, etc, and posseM sound minds In sound bodies. If thLi should meet the eye of any "Friends" or anyone interested In the boys of our coun try It will be a pleasure to give them litera ture and Information regarding the Born" Brigade, than which there in no organization calculated to do more lasting good among boys. ALEX C RAE. SCOTT'S EMULSION is more than a fat food. There is no animal fat that compares with it in nourishing and building up the wasted, emaciated body. That is why chil dren and anaemic girls thrive and grow fat upon it That is why persons with consumptive tenden cies gain flesh and strength enough to check the progress of the dis ease. fC9TT BOTOX, 9 Tmrl am. NrrYwrk. rw for srrtv vears been Hie standard is more popular than ever both with the public and the Medical pro fession. This has entailed upon POND'S EXTRACT the inevit able penalty of fame: Imitation and Substitution Neither of these however, would be perilous to public health if unscrupulous manufacturers swayed more by Profit than Principle did not jeopardize the health and lives of the people by adulterating their common and unidentified witch hazels and offering them through wholesale and retail druggists and department stores as " the same thing" and "just as good" as POND'S EXTRACT. Not content with marketing an inferior article these manufacturers reached the point at last in their Greed of Gain of offering witch hazel fortified with Wood Alcohol (poison) or Formaldehyde (poison) or both, to the imminent peril of all who were deceived into buying and using it. So rife have these pernicious conditions become that ihe State Legislatures of New York and Illinois have enacted laws which make it an offence punishable by heavy fine, or imprisonment, or both, to sell any medicinal extract containing Wood Alcohol (poison) or For maldzhydt (poison) unless the bottle containing same be labeled POISON, and other States throughout the Union are taking steps one after another, to the same protective end. In order, therefore, that the public may be secured against the danger of poisoning by the use of such witch hazels, we are impefled to publish the following Caution Witch Hazel is not "the same thing" as POND'S EXTRACT. On analysis of 70 samples of witch hazel, bought of leading whole sale and retail druggists and department stores, 52 contained Wood Alcohol (poison) or Formaldehyde (poison), or both, and not one of the other 1 8 was up to the required standard of strength. The peril of these poisons may be avoided by the exclusive use of POND'S EXTRACT It costs more, but it is worth the difference.
