WONDERFUL STORY OF AN
OLD SOLDIER ABOUT A
GREAT KIDNEY REMEDY
I
Having suffered so much for years
with inflammation of the kidneys, blad
| der and enlargement of prostate
gland, also with an Injury of canal
caused by roughness of doctors in forc
■ Ing sound catheters, etc., Into the blad
der, after hours of retention of urine, I
now feel well as 1 ever expect to be
and truly thankful. It was through
seeing your advertisement of Swamp-
Root in a Boston paper that I at last
found something reliable which in the
future will prevent the using of Instru
ments so often and relieve much suffer
ing.
Having a doctor in the family, I relied
somewhat on his treatment in the past,
I but in my Last serious Illness, his medi
cine didn’t have its usual effect, and
I when my acute kidney trouble caused
dropsy and my face to swell -badly, I
knew something heroic must be done to
prevent it rapidly extending over my
whole body, as it often does In such
severe cases, especially Brightfs Disease.
I then ordered a large bottle of Dr. Kil
mer’s Swamp-Root, which soon reduced
most of the distressing pains and the
swelling also. Before its use, there was
over one inch of sediment in a quart of
urine. Now it is clearer than it has
been for years. I feel sure that if I
continue taking your medicine, I will be
nearly or completely out of danger.
Many who knew my condition before
commencing Swamp-Root think my par
tial cure something wonderful and I
have only just commenced on the sec
ond bottle. I will always feel safe with
a 11.00 bottle of your wonderful remedy
In my house. Under the above circum
stances, feel It a duty I owe Dr. Kilmer
& Co. to write this testimonial to show
the public what Swamp-Root has done
and is doing for a sufferer of many
years, who wore the blue between 1 800-65
65 and took part in the siege of Paris
against the Commune Soldiers and Fol
lowers in 1871.
Yours sincerely,
MOSES ABBOTT WOOD,
W’estffiinster, Mass.
Personally appeared before me this
31st of July, 1309, Moses Abbott Wooa,
who subscribed the above statement and
made oath that the same is true in sub
stance and in fact.

fire insurance in the city of Newport
News, and fined 1400 each by a jury
drawn from Southampton county, in the
corporation court last night. The verdict
was returned at 10 o’clock, after a trial
lasting one month and seven days.

secretary of th* Virginia committee of
the association; L. R. Warren, chairman

Further Reports From New
ark Fire Add Two to Dead
List-—Scenes Horrible Be
yond Description
(By Associated Press.)
NEWARK, N. J., Nov. 26.—1 n ten
minutes 25 girls were burned alive today,
or crushed to death on the pavement In
leaping from the windows and fire es
capes of the four-story brick paper box
factory at Orange and High streets.
‘ Twenty of the 24 bodies recovered have
been identified and four glrle are still
missing. They may be among the uni
dentified or they may be In the ruins.
{ Tne collapse of a wall tonight interrupt
'ed further search.
Fifty were taken to hospitals, of
whom two may di*. Among the injured
is Joseph E. Sloane, deputy fire chief
who was caught by the falling wall
and buried In bricks and rubbish. He
Is badly hurt, but may recover.
The rush of .ae flames was so incred
ibly swift and threw such unreasoning
terror into the huddled working girls on
the top story, that the body of one was
found still seated on a charred stool be
side the machine at which she had been
busy when the first cry of "Fire” petri-,
fled her with fright.
INFLAMMABLE BUILDING.
The building was extremely Inflam
mable and the first gush of flames cut
off all possible escape by the stairways.
The elevators made one trip but took
down no passengers. The only exit was
by the narrow flee escapes, the lower
platform of which was 25 feet from the
street. Onto these overcrowded and
steep lanes, scorched with heat from
lower windows, pressed forward a mob
of women, blind with panic, driven by the
fire and others behind them.
A net had been spread beneath the
windows and the girls began to jump
“like rats out of a burning bin” was
th* way a fireman described the pell
mell descent. They crawled out of
the windows, rolled down on the heads
of those below them and fell to the
pavement 60 feet below. Some of them
stood in the windows outlined against
the Lames and jumped clear; others from
the alndlng; still others from the steps
where they stood.
The air was full of them and they
fell everywhere—lnto the net, on the
necks of firemen and 15 of them on the
stone slabs. When tne awful plunges
ceased there were eight dead in the
street and the gutters ran red. Seven
girls were so badly crushed ’that they
died in the hospital. - Fifty are still under
surgical care.
THE IDENTIFIED DEAD.
The identified dead:
SADIE HAUSO.
SARAH CREERAN.
GERTRUDE DENTON. /
MILDRED WALTERS.
SOPHIE MADUSKY.
MRS. FRANCES KRATHIA.
SOPHIA NICLIWAK.
MATILDA OTTO. '

MRS. BESSIE ROBIN.
MRS. MARY LA PIERRE.
IDA WOOLSEY, ij
MARY KAVANAGH.
ROSE CLEABTf ‘
ROY DAVIDSON.
THERESA TORTORELLA.
MRS MARY KEARNS.
As the news flew—and it lost nothing
In the telling—panic spread to other fac
tories, where many of the girls in peril
■ had friends and relatives and several
I firms had to shut down for the day.
Ambulances and automobiles, comman
deered for emergency service, were hur
rying in opposite streams to the hospi
tals and back again.
ALL POLICE CALLED OUT.
Before any semblance of order could be
restored every police reserve in the city
had been called out ana It was not un
til tonight that an estimate of the prop
erty loss could even be ventured. Tne
fire department now guesses $165,000, but
no from the owners and ten
ants is yet available.
I The building was occupied on the two
* lower floors by the Newark Paper Box
company and the A. A. Drake Paper
Box company; on the third floor, where
the fire started by the Anchor Lamp
I company and the Aetna Electric com
l pany, and on the top floor, where the
death list ran heavy, by the Wolf Man
ufacturing company, makers of under
wear.
The wooden floors were soaked with
oil drippings from the machinery and
the flames ate their way through them
like pasteboard. When they warped
and weakened, the weight of the machin
ery tore them from the walls and they
fell into the basement In a horrible tan
gle of hot Iron and mangled humanity.
DELAY CAUSED DEATH.
Fire Chief Astley laid the responsi
bility for loss of life on delay In turn
ing in an alarm. He says live minutes
were lost in trying to fight the blazing
i gasoline with sand in, a barrel. “If those
precious minutes had not been wasted,’-
he almost sobbed, "we would not have
lost one single life.”
Frederick Weimar, chief Inspector of
the public prosecutor’s office Is making
an Investigation to determine the re
sponsibility of the tenants and owners.

-1 strong Drexel broke all aeroplane altl
i tude records here yesterday when he
J climbed above this city until his Bleriot
i monoplane was unable to make further
I progress in the rarlfled atmosphere.
I The ink in the needle of his baromet
' er ran out at 9,970 feet, which was ac
cepted as a new world’s record by Clif
ford B. Harmon, chairman of the Na
i tional Associated Aero Clubs of Amer
; lea, and James King Duffy, the secre
tary of that body. The instrument is
. the same one which Johnstone carried
when he made a former record of 9.714
| feet at Belmont Park on October 31.
I It was brought to this city under seal
by Mr. Duffy In order that the record
made would be official.
< Mr. Drexel left thA aviation field at
Point Breeze, In the extreme southern
part of the city at 3:23 o'clock. He land
ed at Orelanfl. about 20 miles north of
the spot where he started, at 4:46 o’clock.
In his climb he traveled at least 30 miles
to the northward, for when he started
to descend, after trying for 15 minutes
to force the machine higher, he glided
down for a distance which he estimat
ed at about six miles.
So swiftly did the monoplane descend
that the aviator was nauseated. How-
> ever, he reached an open field and
brought his machine to the ground with
out injury.
He at once notified the officials at
the aviation field of his landing.
Clifford Harmon and Grahame-White
promptly left for Oreland In an auto
mobile and brought the aviator and
the barograph, still under seal, to this
city.
REPROVED - BY FATHER
GIRL BECOMES “BOY”
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 25—Shorn of
ner curls and donning male attire,
Franke Wluiams, 15 years old, daugh
ter of a local railroad employe, had her
“boys’” career of roughing it abruptly
terminated. Taking offense at a correc
tion administered by her father. It was
said, the girl ran away from home Tues
day.
After unsuccessfully seeking employ
ment as a bell “boy” In 'a hotel, the girl
camped out for two days and nights on
the river bank. Late yesterday work
men in the neighborhood suspected her
disguise and reported the matter to the
police.
She was brought before the Carrollton
police court, still protesting that her
name was Harry JoneM, but subsequent
ly she revealed her identity and was
turned over to her parents.
CORPORATION SECRETS
WILL BE PROTECTED)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—Secrets of
corporations and the intimate details of
their business, are to be safeguarded by
the government under the law passed
by the last session of congress providing
for the filing of returns with the treas
ury department for the purpose of as
sessing federal taxes.
The question of publicity of such re
turns has been a question of vital im
portance to the big business interests.
Their fears were set at rest today when
Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh is
sued a ruling which shuts out from per
usal of the reports the idly cur'.ous or
those who might benefit unfairly by a
study of them.
