Plttston, March 10. Ftre was discov

taurant, situated on South Main street,
at 2.45 this morning. The lire was un
der a good headway when the firemen
reached the scene. The Nlugaras, Ea
gles and Hook and Ladder companies
responded. The Niagaras were the first
to reach the plug and in a very short
time had two streams on the building.
For over two hours our tlremen worked
liard to save the adjoining property.
The Are was confined mostly to the rear
of the building, though several times It
galnedheadway between the partitions
end the flames shot through the root
high Into the air. For some time fears
were entertained that the occupants
had not made their escape, as the
smoke was very dense, but It was final
ly ascertained that there was no one
la the burning building. The building
toeing a wooden structure It was com
pletely gutted. The adjoining prop
erty was saved only through the heroic
efforts of our volunteer tire depart
ment. The building was owned by Cor
coran Bros., and was insured In Cap
tain John T. Flannery's agency. The
stock, owned by Loughney tiro., was
also Insured in the same agency. The
damage to the building will amount to
.",0W, and loss of stuck will reach 11,000.

to 3 points for the home team. Under
last year's rules the players are al
lowed privileges of rougher playing
than the rules of 1S95. The Scrantons

Railroad men say that there Is a bettor
feeling In railroad rlreles, and the out
look for a .decided Improvement In the
freight movement Is good. An olllelal of
the Pennsylvania railroad conipany yes
tenia y suld there Is more demand for ear
and that the merchandise being shipped
Is larger than has been the cone for Rome
time. The Improvement Is not only In
the east bound business, but In the west

a bill pending In the house which Is
Identical with the Oallagher law, and the

Reading company In sending 33.000 tons ot

agreements heretofore existing with the

nllles that the receivers of the company
have tuken their first practical step to
ward putting ilho coinpuny upon a proflt-
eurnlng-busls. The uddltion of 25 cents
por ton to coal freights received here via
the North Pennsylvania was represented
to be nothing more than an adjustment of
charges to (ximU those ohtalnod on Its own
main line, wlillo at the same time It would
add a liundHome sum to the net receipts
of tho road."

charged by all trunk lines. A telegram
was lead from Commissioner Jiluiirliunl,
of thu Central Trnttlc association of Chi
cago, promising to sustuln the present
raites of freight from the west. The exe
cutive committee recommended that cler
ical orders and the sales of tickets to

A GREAT AGREEMENT.
25,000 Physicians of One Mind.
mod for Strength First. Medietas tor
Care Second. The Least rood thai
will give Most Noarlshmemt, the Ktad.
In this enlightened age, the old theory
held by physicians to get as much medi
cine iu the least possible time into the
system of a patient, even at the expense
of stomach, blood, brains, nerves, and
often, In the end, life Itself has been
abandoned.
Tho old way was to "dose." If the
Eattleht had a tremendous constitution,
e sometimes "pulled through;" If not,
which was more often the case, that spe
cial disease was considered niore danger
ous, as it had claimed another for its own.
But this Is all changed now. AH promi
nent physicians agree on one subject, any
wdy. It Is this build the patient tip
first, give him new blood and strength,
add flesh to his bones. lie's then ready
to receive the bcnelit of proper medical
treatment.
To do this rffectually.'tliut mutt be given
which will, lu the least quantity, produce
tho greatest amount of vitality, not a
stimulant which quickly reucts diaattrous
ly, but a genulnu food, a muscle, bone,
and blood lnuker. Such a food wat long
sought fur, uud at lust discovered lu that
original and only raw food extract
Boviuiue.
l)y the use of this wonderful life-generating
preparation, every organ of the
body becoming strengthened by nourish
ment, naturally begins to perform its ordi
nary function, and ut ouce the patient is
on tho road to recovery.
It is this result, obtained In hundreds
of cases where Ilovltilno has been used,
that has caused Its indorsement by Ui,U0U
prominent pliyslciuus in America.
In addition, thousands who have been
benelitcd can vouch for the wonderful re
sults obtained by the use of ilovinine,
for invalids, the old, convalescents, tho
over-worked, or, In fact, all who have
fouud it necessary to maiutaln strength,
flesh, and vigor.
