The planing mill of Siess Bros., t situated on B.taou R.apides, in the I upper suburbs of Alexandria, was enltirely destroyed by fire at 1 1 o'clock last Thursd.ay morning. The origin of the fire is unknown, but it was discovered by the night watchlman in about the centre of t the buil ling, who endeavored to r extinguish it by pouring water I upon it, but failing to arrest its i progress in this manll'or, he sought i his nearest neighbor for assis r tance. Who i they returned the flames were under such full head way that it was implossible to save! the building and conitenuts. It was it wooden stiucture aiid burled like tinder. Whenl the slhlrl of fire was soilutded thle lhose coniti ie promiptly resuponded, hut the build ing was enveloped in such a massI of flaule when they arrived, that it was impossible to do aniything Cx cept to concentrate theiir efforts to save adjacent buildings.

At the slalie time, the Ohio De mocrats, in convention to nomi nate a State ticket, have adopted a platform setring forth that the I fee coinage of silver is Ihie chie! 1. issue, and the uext niational fight must hie nade on it. All this sort of thing shows how demoralized the Democrats have become tiror econsorting with Popliists alrld adopting their socialistic views.

WATTS, President. x-cretairy.'. frlOTER AND BABE. Nature is cruel and visits upon mother and babe alike the results of the mother's neglect of her own health. It is an oft-told tale-the mother dies in the ag ony of child-birth, and in a few short months the sweet babe follows her to the cemetery. If women will only learn, and teach their daughters, the supreme importance of keeping the distinctly feminine organism in a perfectly vigorous and healthy condi tion, this ever-recurring tragedy will soon be a story of the past. If women who suf fer from weakness and disease of these del icate organs will write to Dr. R. V. Pierce at Buffalo, N. Y., they will learn that in order to recover and maintain their health in this respect, it is not generally necessary to submit to the humiliating examinations and local applications insisted upon by physicians. In writing confidentially to Dr. Pierce, a woman places her case, with out charge, in the hands of an eminent and skillful specialist, for thirty years chief con sulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo, N. Y.-one of the leading medical institutions in the world, with a staff of nearly a score of emi nent practitioners. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures all weakness and disease of the organs distinctly feminine. Honest druggists recommend it instead of urging a substitute for a little extra profit. "I have been a great sufferer from female dis eases," writes Mrs. C. C. Clark, of New Rome, Floyd Co., Ga. " I was confined to my bed three years. Nine bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription completely cured me." n P'e. ) Good temper is D r. Pierce s largely a nmatter of good health, and good health is largely a matter of healthy activity of the bowels. br. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation. They are sate, sure and speedy, and once taken do not have to be taken always. One little " Pellet" is a gentle laxative, and two a mild - cathartic. They never PI 1Plt' gripe. Druggists sell them. A Watson Makes Charges and Has r a Fling at Win. J. Bryan. Atlanta, Ga., July 1.-Thomas o E. Watson, in a signed editorial in f to day's issue of the People's Par ty 1paper, charges that the fusion ists have ontered into a compact I to deliver the Populist vote to the Democrats in 1900, and that the $1,500 recently contributed .to the Populist fund by Mr. Bryan out of the proceeds of his book sales is the first insta!lment of the pur chase money. His editorial concludes as jul lows: "We could wish that Mir. Bryan kept his money in his pock et.
