By anew order of things just in
augurated by the Southern Hallway,
Brunswick is made thwpoint of des

which heretofore ended at Jnckson-

ileretorfore a short train lias been
■ aerated out of Brunswick as No. 13,
i ..lining as far as Jessup, where it
. muecßri with the regular train
■jund from Jacksonville to Atlanta,
he Brunswick sleeper was trims
.! rred at Jcsup, hut passengers In
.he day coach were required to
change cars. This train crew then
■ icnt the night in Jesup and waited
the following morning on Train No.
44 from Atlanta. In otlicr words. It
wus simply a abort train between
runswick and Jesup.
Under the new order, however.
•,:its train, as well as all others,come
through to Brunswick instead of
ucki-onville and are operated to this
city by the same crew leaving At
lanta. Instead of dropping the
"runswick sleeper at Jesup and re
quiring the day coach passengers to
change cars, the train continues on
o this city, and the Jacksonville and
rther Florida sleepers are dropped
lid carried on by another train,
'.'rains %is. 16 and 6 also come
',hrough to this city from Atlanta.
By this change it will be seen that
'irunswick is given a better service,
here now being three through trains
ach way between this city and At
lanta.
It is understood that the crew
which has been temporarily laid of*
will shortly be placed on another
-run. The change was probably made
:n order to reduce the run of the
crews on train. AtlaLtv

Spectacular fire that destroyed the
•thirteen-..ilory -bucidiug last iyght,
causing a loss variously estimated
at amounts up to $6,000,000.
Although accounted fireprooff, the
great building burned almost Nke
tinder. Sensational rescues were
features of the fire. Five men who
Were at work on the top floor of tie*
building, were out. oIT /from rescue
from below, and sought roof, where
they stood silhouetted against the
flames, which had broken through
the roof.
From the top of the adjoining
building, several stories lower than
the blazing one, a line was shot up
from a mortar, and with this line
the beluguered men drew up a si out
rope, which they fastened to iho
chimney, sliding down to lower roof
in safety. Three firemen were
caught in the sixth story when the
iloor below them dropped, and they
were forced upward to the eighth
story of the blazing building.
From below it seemed that rescue
was Impossible, until their endanger
ed comrades were reached and res
cued. But even the rescue of these
men was not complete, for the three
who went up into the building disap
peart,d In a mass of falling concrete
and twisted steel beams. It is their
bodies tiiei! comrades are searching
for, among the smoking ruins this
morning. In addition to the missing
a score or more firemen were hurt
Tire subway was closed between
Fourteenth and Twenty-third streets,
the Eighteenth street station being
opposite the burned building.

OS. SPIEGEL IS
ORAWING CROWDS
HIS BEAVER OIL SEEMS TO BE
A REALLY GREAT DIS
COVERY.
The great Spiegel has attained the
reputation as being a great orator
and advertiser in Ins particular line
of business. He has come to Bruns
wick in the interest of a great dis
covery. For the next week his train
ed beavers will perform each even
ing at the corner of Gloucester
aud Newcastle streets. The sight of
seeing these rare and interesting an
imals is enough for the public to
know that they will not be disap
pointed with this part of the pro
gram. The young silver tongue or
. liter... has the reputation of .being the
youngest orator aud advertiser the
world has ever known. The people
of Brunswick will have an opportun
ity of judging.for themselves the abil
ity of this young orator. It is said
from the momng that he appears be
lore an audience until his address is
finished, he commands the closest
and individual attention. To prove
to the public the curative power of
the great discovery he will give free
demonstrations nightly upon thy plat
form in full view of the audience.
An invitation was extended last
nght to all ruffering with any ache
or pain, swollen or stiff joint and all
weakness, and Mr, J. Henry Griffin
of E street responded. He told Mr.
Spiegel that he was suffering with a
numbness in his arm cuused by
rheumatism. The doctor said that
lie would make no charge and im
mediately applied his great discovery
and inside of five minutes time Mr.
Griffin addressed the large crowd and
said that his arm never felt better.
Ho carries ln bis posse sion
thousands of testimonials of cure
made by him in public. Judging
from the vast crowd? he has held in
other cities throughout the United
States the comer will not be large
enough to accommodate the vast
Luultitude that will a semble them-
Hdves there nightly.
