Dec, 15 Dec, 22 FOURTEEN DEAD AT PHILADELPHIA Fir’émen and Policemen Per- ish Under Falling Walls. HAVE AWFUL EXPERIENCE Two of Those Pinned Under Freezing Debris for Twelve Hours Are Taken Out ‘Alive, but One Succumbed on the Way to the Hospital—Some ot the Victims Killed in Brave Effort te Save Comrades. Philadelphia, Dec. 23.—Fourteen known dead, twelve firemen and two policemen, and more than fifty injured, of whom twenty-five are still in hos- pitals, is the record of the fire at the leather tactory of Daniel Friedlander in this city. These figures were given out by the police and the city officials believe they have accounted for all the men who were at work at the fire when the several walls of the five story building fell in on them. Of the injured several are in a critical condition and may die. ‘What is believed to be the last body in the ruins was taken from the ice- coated mass of debris sixteen hours after the fire started. Two firemen were taken out of the ruins alive after having been pinned under the great mass of twisted iron and broken bricks for twelve hours, but one of them, Thomas Pass, died on the way to a hospital. The work of digging into the ruins was exasperatingly slow to the police- men and firemen who had been on duty all night. This was due princi- pally to the extreme cold weather, which froze the wet ruins into an al- most solid mass. It was one of the coldest mornings .of the present sea- son and the rescuers suffered keenly in the wintry weather. How the Disaster Occurred. The Friedlander factory was a five- 'story building on the west side of Bodine street and ran west, the rear extending to the east side of Third street. The building had been com- pletely burned out and the fire con- fined to within the four walls when the disaster occurred. Chief Baxter was standing on the roof of a two-story house and was di- recting the men for the final fight to subdue the flames. Water tower truck No. 7 had a ladder against the front wall on Bodine street, playing a great stream of water into the flames. Just inside the building at Bodine street a group of firemen were throwing water on the burning ruins. Suddenly the Bodine street wall fell inward, burying all the men who were within the build- ing and carrying down the big ladder of truck No. 7, on which there were half a dozen men. Four of the firemen who were on this ladder are among the dead. The cries of the firemen caught be- neath the ruins spurred their brother firemen to instant action, without the thought of danger to themselves. No sooner had they climbed over the smoking ruins than part of the north wall came down. This caught not only the firemen, but also a number of po- licemen who had plunged into the thick of the rescue work. EARNINGS OF ARMOUR & CO. Profit of 29 Per Cent on Capital Stock of $20,000,000. Chicago, Dec. 23.—Armour & Co have issued the annual statement for the fiscal year ended Oct. 22, 1910, showing xnet profits of $9,808,305, against $10,582,905 in 1909 and $11, 608,474 in 1908. The balance applicable to dividends was $5,817,721, equal to 29.08 per cent on the $20,000,000 capi- tal stock. During the year the shares received their first disbursement, amounting to 10 per cent, all profits in previous years having been put back into property. Gross business in the 1910 fiscal year was $250,000,000, or slightly over the gross of 1909. Higher costs and closer profits, however, cut down net somewhat, the decreases from the pre- vious year being 7.6 per cent. Of the decrease $132,000 was from manufac- ture and sales and the larger part from allied companies’ income. The 1909 annual showed a year’s surplus equivalent to' 35.64 per cent on the $20,000,000 stock. BATTLE IN THE PHILIPPINES One Infantryman Killed by Monobos Tribesmen. Manila, Dec. 23.—Word has been received here of a fierce engagement in the Basiaman river district, Davao, between Monobos tribesmen and a de- tachment of the Third United States infantry. Private Holt was killed and a cor- poral and private, names not stated, were wounded. It is said heavy losses were inflicted on the tribesmen, but no details have been received. Dies While Praying in Church. Kankakee, 1ll, Dec. 23.—While kneeling in prayer in the First Pres- byterian church at Manteno E. W. Hume, seventy-eizht years old, a wealthy retired farmer snd deacon in the church, collapsed and died. An Accommodating Man. |, - “You see,” said the old farmer as he measured out the green tomatoes to the grocer, “I,brought along my, spade by accident, but it was a good thing 1 did.” “Wagon get stuck in the road?” was asked. “Oh, no! I was coming along about a mile back when I saw a feller in a field. He had a crocked stick in his hand, and a little boy with other crooked sticks was following him along. The man was knocking a wood- en ball along the ground. , “‘Hello, says I as I stopped. “‘Hello yourself.’ “‘“What you doing? “‘Holing a ball in the ninth. “‘Hard work, hain’t it? “‘Yes. ““Then let me help you a little: Nothing mean about me.’ “And 1 grabbed the spade, climbed the fence and dug that ninth hole out till it was as big as a bar’l, and the feller laid right down and volled over and over and laughed so much he couldn’t find words to thank me.”— Rochester Democrat-Chronicle. A Great Cannibal Feast. Probably the biggest cannibal orgy on record is one of which Miss Bea- trice Grimshaw tells in “The New Guinea:” “In 1838 a shipload of China- men was being taken down to Austra- lia. The vessel was wrecked upon a reef close to Rossel island, New Guin- ea. The officers escaped in boats, but were never afterward heard of. As for the Chinamen, numbering 326, the natives captured them and put them on a small barren island, where they had no food and no means of getting away. They kept their prisoners sup- plied with food from the mainland and every now and then carried away a few of them to eat until all but one old man had been devoured. This one succeeded eventually in getting away and told something of the story, which seems to have met with general disbe- lef. True it is, however, on the evi- dence of the sons of those who did the deed.” Imprisonment For Debt. About the middle of the last cen- tury the power of.imprisoning a debt- or for life was taken from the creditor, and it fills one with amazement to think that a system so ridiculous should have continued as long as it did. The three principal debtors’ pris- ons in England were the King’s Bench, the DMarshalsea and the Borough Compter. In the year 1759 there were 20,000 prisoners for debt in Great Brit- ain and Ireland. The futility of the system was quite as great as its bar- barity. More than half the prisoners in some of the prisons were kept there solely because they could not pay the attorneys’ costs. Many prisoners had their wives and children with them. There was no infirmary, no resident surgeon and no bath. Imagine a place in these days containing 1,399 person$ and no bath and no infirmary! We have indeed “progressed.”—Dundee Ad- vertiser. How Far Can You See? What is the farthest limit to which the human vision can reach? Power in his book, *“The Eye and Sight,” gives the ability to see the star Alcor, situat- ed at the tail of the Great Bear, as the test. Indeed, the Arabs call it the test star. It is most exceptional to be able to see Jupiter’s satellites with the naked eye, though one or two cases are recorded, the third satellite being the most distinet. Peruvians are said to be the longest sighted race on L i) NOBODY SPARED Kidney Troubles Attack™ Bemidji Men and Women, Old and Young.

Probably He Wouldn't. A country rector, coming up to preach at Oxford in his turn, complain- cd to Dr. Routh, the venerable princi- pal, that the remuneration was very inadequate. considering the reling expenses and the labcr necessary for the composition of the discourse. “How much did they give you?” in- | quited Dr. Liouth. “Only was the reply. “Only £57" repeated the doctor. “Why, 1 would not have preached that sermon for lifty!”"—Bric-a-Brac. Hens’ Teeth. “Your composition, as a whole,” said the professor of literature, “deserves a great deal of praise, but I must ob- ject to the expression, ‘as fine as hens’ teeth;" it is not merely uncouth, but also suggestive of nature faking, for it is common knowledge that hens’ teeth do not exist.” “I do not see why they don't exist,” muttered the composer. “Don’t combs have teeth, and don’t hens have combs?”’—Chicago News. A Dig at May. “I thought you said May Nagget had married a good natured man?” “So she did.” “Nonsense! I met him just now, and he's a beast.” “Well, he's been married to May nearly four months now, you know.” —Illustrated Bits.
