Ihe brewery en Frout street, now
known as Foust's Germania Brewery.
Later he bought the plant and was its

After disposing of the brewery he

Philadelphia & Heading station kuown
as the Hailroad House,and lived there
until five years ago when he sold the
property to John R. Bennett. The

Found Frozen in the Snow.
Willi.»m Cook, a resident of the Sec
ond Ward wa* found lying in the suow
at the corner of Pine and Lower Mul
berry stret ts late Saturday night, in a
partly frozen condition.
A young man residing on Lower
Mulberry street was ou his way home
about 12 o'clock aud as he crossed
Pine street he saw an object lying
in the snow near the sidewalk. lie
•topped for a minute, and was about
to move on. when he suddenly discov
ered that it was the inert form of a
man.
He assisted the man to Dr. Stock's
offloe, where it was found that Cook's
both feet were frozen. The physician
worked for several hours, and finally
succeeded in restoring the circulation.
Except several bruises on the head,the
man sustained no other injuries. Had
he remained a short time longer expos
ed to the bitter cold he would have
frozen to death.
He Was Old and Weak.
Oue of the greatest Philanthropists
of New York well known through the
world was always an advocato < 112 total
abstinence was feeble with age when
he got strong again on Speer's Port
Wit# and lived for years happy. If
you are weak and • debilitated, u e
Speer's Port Grape Wine, it will
purify your blood, and make you feel
young and prolong your life.
Veterans Passing Away.
Soldiers of"the disappearing army"
aa the veterans of the civil war have
been termed are dying at the rate of
100 every day from sunrise to sunrise .
This pathetic showing is made by
the quarterly statement of the Pension
Bureau, given out by Commissioner
Ware. The mortality among acilder
pensioners of all wars aud classes last
year was 31,278 deaths,<f which 80,071
were soldiers of the civil war. Com
missioner Ware estimates that there
are 150,000 to 180,000 soldiers of the
civil war who are not on the pension
rolls.
These he lias designated as "the un
known army. "
It is said that fully 32,000 civil war
veterans, pensioners and non-pension
ed died last year.
There is one rational way to treat
nasal catarrh: the medicine is applied
direct to the atfected membraue. The
remedy is Ely's Cream Balm. It re
stores the inflamed tissues to a healthy
state without drying ail the life out
of them and it gives back the lost
senses of taste and smell. The sufferer
who is tired of vain experiments
should use Cream Balm. Druggists
sell it for 50 cents. Ely Brothers, 58
Warren Street, New York, will mail
It.
