The lint two scholars to arrive at the
Outer Street Grammar School, la Rich-
niraul, laet Thursday mornlnir, had tho
jnfuT experience of finding their teacher,
)ll„j inn B. Heed, lying dead hjr her dealt
tu the school room. Tho coroner'a phjral
,liti. nr. Jerome, at once pronounced
"sudden death from Heart Dlneaia,"
Jlrs. Heed, the mother, said: “Several
tint, s (luring the laat term of school Inn
I,I,,nil,(lied that It put her out of breath to
nurr.v nuj, and that her heart had spells
„( noting t|ueer, but every time that 1
would urge her to do something for It she
«„i:M only laugh inc off and say, ‘Oh, It’
nothing but a little palpltntlon-lt s m
atonuich. I gness—It will get well of Itself,
anyway.' But 1 know she linrrled to get
t o school a little earlier* than usual this
morning, mid It has cost us her precious
yollllg life."
t his eitse Is only one; slaty thousand peo-
„l„ die yearly of Heart Disease: Six In
ten have It. Jinny don't know It.
They think It Is something else, and doc
tor the stomach, kidneys, female organs,
etc, and get no better: nnd a good ninny
who do know think It can't be cured. Now
Heart Disease Is Just ns curable us any
other disease; we have proved this fully
by r urlng over a hundred and thirty thou-

chronic, serious, complicated klud, In which

cured them quickly and to stay cured! In
„.,.,* inniiv enses nf Heart Disease the
Nerves and Stoiencb are affected also, snd
in such It is uscles to treat the heart alone,
iiul one reason why our treatment cures Is
because It sets the stomach right, removes

Greek, situated beyond the city limits
near Inman Park.
Bulunlas operates five fruit wagons

menced to save the Imprisoned horses.

doubt that the fire was of Incendiary
origin.

Newberry. 8. C„ March 30.—In what
as yesterday morning ono of the prln.
clpal business portions and one of the
prettiest residential sections of New
berry there Is nothing to be seen but
brick walls, standing chimneys and a
mass of debris, left as silent reminders
of the terrible conflagration which
raged for four hours Friday. In that
short space of time ten stores, twenty-
two residences, two churches and pos
sibly forty tenant houses and stables
were destroyed, and more than 100 peo
ple rendered homeless. A conservative
estimate places the loss at *100,000,
while the Insurance on the burned
property will probably amount to
(85.000.
The city council last night subscribed
*100 for the relief of the sufferers, and
this morning a list Is open for sub
scriptions In the store of Glider
Weeks. The citizens are responding
generously to this appeal for aid, and
It Is probable that *1,000 will he sub
scribed.
The work of clearing away the debris
from the burned district was begun
this morning, and linemen for the tele
phone and electric light companies are
busy replacing Hie lines which were
destroyed.
With this terrible loss of property It
Is Indeed miraculous that there was
no loss of life. Several firemen and la
dles were overcome by heat und ex
citement. but apart (rom these no fa
talities or Injuries Is reported. Many
of the burned buildings In the business
section were frame structures, and
these will in all probability he replaced
by modern brick buildings.
'it Is as yet Impossible to compile a
report of the Individual losses, and the
amount of Insurance on the burned
proiwrty. hut the foregoing estimate of
the totals are not far wrong.
