SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Slight Fire la the Boiler Roora of the
Sauqoolt Silk Mill A New School to
Replace No. 10 Building.
A few minutes after t o'clock yester
day morning an alarm of fire was
sounded from box 13 at Cedar avenue
and Elm street. Flames had originated
In the boiler room of the Sauquolt Silk
mill, but before any damage was done
the flames were extinguished. The
South Ride companies responded
promptly; forunately their services
were not needed, but there was one les
son taught that should be profitable to
the South Side councllmen. For sev
eral years the necessity of more alarm
stations has been apparent, and it was
fully exemplified yesterday.
The distance from the silk mill to
box f3 Is a quarter of a mile. The Sau
quolt, Meadow Brook! Knitting and
Button mills are situated close to
gether and as they form a large part of
the Industry on which the people are
dependent, there ought to be better fa
cility for sending in an alarm of tire
when the occasion requires It.
NEW SCHOOL IN SIGHT.
In the district accommodated by No.
10 school it has been conceded that a
new building is necessary. The pres
ent structure will remain until the end
of the term and will then make way for
one of more extensive proportions and
modern conveniences. It will be im
possible to have the new building ready
for the opening of next term, but the
work will be pushed rapidly. The resi
dents of the Twentieth ward are after
a new building also.

TELLS A STRONG STORY.
Mlnooka Young Woman Who Declares
That She. Was Drugged.
Charles T. Honeyager and Katie
Feeley were made man and wife yes
terday by Alderman O. B. Wright. The
ceremony was the closing chapter of a
case that has caused no end of gossip.
The groom is a bartender now, but at
one time conducted a saloon on Pitts
ton avenue and later was part proprie
tor of a restaurant on upper Lacka
wanna avenue: His hride is a daugh
ter of Mrs. Bridget Feeley, of Plttston
avenue, formerly of Greenwood. They
are both 22 years of age. On Monday
evening of last week Mrs. Honeyager
left home to attend a ball In the cen
tral city. She failed to return after
this ball. Tuesday night her mother
got so worried that she went to Chief
of Police Simpson and laid the case be
fore him. Thursday evening Katie re
turned, and her explanation for her ab
sence went to prove that Honeyager
was a rascal. She said that he had
given her a potion and its effect on her
left her Incapable of exercising her
reason for three days. When the cloud
passed from her she found herself on
the streets down In Taylorvllle. ' She
also confessed that previous to this ad
venture Honeyager's relations with her
were Improper.
It took a few days for her mother to
get the story from her, and when she
did she went to the office of Justice of
the Peace P. F. O'Hara, of Mlnooka,
and swore out a warrant for Honey
ager on these serious charges. The
warrant was given to Constable John
P. St. John to serve, and he located
the defendant Monday night at 11
o'clock and locked him up In the cen
tral police station until yesterday
morning.
Constable St. John went to the sta
tion yesterday morning to get the pris
oner and bring him out to Mlnooka
before Squire O'Hara for a hearing.
He took him first to Attorney M. A.
McGlnley's office. Mrs. Feeley and
Kfltle were present and the upshot of
the conference was that the charges
would be withdrawn upon promise of
marriage. Honeyager agreed to this
and Constable St. John accompanied
the couple to the court house, where
th?:' got a llcensp. They next went to
Aluerman Wright's office and were
married.

!MET AND STOCK REPORT
Wall Street Review.
New York. April Q. Stocks opened firm
mni generally higher on commission house
buying. The seasonable weather and the
weakness of the sterling exchange mar
ket the result of offerings of security and
loan bills were the principal (actors nt
work. The advance which was equal to
Hal, per cent, was most pronounced In
the Grangers, th Southwestern. Wheel
ing and Lake Erie Preferred and the
Northern Pacific. The last named was
taken on the general brllef that the re
organization will be carried throe-h suc
cessfully. The advance led to realizations
all along the line and 8 agar suffered the
grcntest loss. The stock fell from lifti
to YH'i and closed at US. a pet loss of 1
per cent, for the day. Cotton Oil Pre
ferred moved up to 57t at one time, but
later dropped to SU. It was stated semi
officially that the dividend on the Pre
ferred, which Is due In June will be paid.
Rumors have been current that the com
pany intended to either reduce or post
pone a division of profits. The rumor
probably grew out or the resignation of
certain prominent blflclals. In the rail
way list Baltimore and Ohio was the weak
snot. The stock fell two points to W.
An Issue of receivers' certificates Is gen
erally expected. Estimates place the Is
sue at one to five millions, and this has
led to sales of stock by old-time holders.
In the closing dealings Tobacco rose to
74 from TiH on covering of short con
tracts. Tii9 application for an Injunction
to restrain the payment of the scrip divi
dend of 20 per cent, had no Influence. The
recovery in Tobacco strencthened the gen
eral list and the early loss was partially
recovered. Speculation closed steady.
Net changes show losses of Hali per
cent, outside of Baltimore and Ohio, which
lost 2 per cent. Tobacco gained 1, Mis
souri Po!fi". and Lake Shore, ft.
Total sales wer 23H.&3 shares.

FOUND A SKELETON.
Boaea I'aeanacd la Greea Ridge Tbirteca
Feet Ucacath the Sarface.
Parts of a human skeleton were
found yesterday by workmen excavat
ing In a sand pit on Marion street.
Green Ridge. The skull was found
thirteen feet from the surface and
crumbled when handled.
It Is believd that the bones are those
Of an Indian, but there Is no positive
grounds for such belief, as the parts
found are not well preserved.
HEALTH HINTS.
Clover tea. Is excellent for purifying the
blood, clearing the complexion and re
moving pimples. Dried clover may be
used for the tea.
When eruptions and blotches appear on
the face you may be sure, says the Wash
ington Star, that a torpid liver or Indi
gestion, which is only another form of tor
pid liver, are getting in their fell work.
Of course, medicine will help to overcome
it, but diet sMl do more, and will cer
tainly be pleasanter. Kat green tlittng
lettuce, asparagus, spinach, horse-radish
or mustard "greens." Let pastry and
swets alone, and eat onions, the fresh
young succulent sin-out. Of course, you
don't want to eat them and -then aprwar
in public, but you can make a lunch from
them with bread and butter Just before
retiring. You will find them much better
than medicine.
For burns make a paste of flour and
lard, soft enough to spread easily. Apply
and cover with a soft, thin cloth, renew
ing as fast as the paste dries and crum
bles. Celery Is one of the most valuable of
foods and is a positive remedy for suf
ferers from rheumatism, nerve troubles
and nervous dyspepsia.
To prevent a bruise from discoloring
apply Immediately hot water, or. If thru
is not at hand, moisten some dry starch
wKh cold water and cover the bruised
place.
Persons who have to be on their feet
much of the time or those obliged to walk
a great (leal will find It a relief to change
shoes every other day and stockings each
morning.
Many physicians, according to a lecturer
on dietetics, are ordering thin bread and
butter for delicate patients, especially
those suffering from dynpepsia, consump
tion and anaemia, or any who need to
take on flenh. This -thin bread and butter
Insensibly Induces persons to eat much
more butter than they have and Idea of.
It is extraordinary, says the lecturer, how
short a way a pat of fre'h butter will go
if spread on a number of thin slices of
bread. This Is one advantage, and a great
one, in the feeding of Invalids, for they
are thereby provided with en excellent
form of the fat which is so eusentlal for
their nutrition, in a way that lures them
to take It without rebellion. But he thin
bread and butter has another advantugo
equally great It is very digestible ant
easily assimilated. Fresh butter made
from cream la very much more dlgestlbla
when spread upon thin slices of bread
than the same amount of cream eaten as
cream, per Be, would be.
