A 1 1!:.'I6 a. m.-flre was discovered on the
fourth floor of the five-story building owned
nd occupied by Root & Keating, wholesale
sole leather dealora. at the onrnor of Carroll
and WelU street. The ferocity of the wind
made it coi tuln that the tire, If It got a hold,
would be a dlsunr.mt one. The buildlng,
wlth frontage of 130 feet on Carroll and 127
on Wells street, was situated in the beartof
business blocks. Itwus sopuratod only by
the breadth of Carroll s'rejt from the line
Jewett block, fronting on Keneca street, and
was directly in line with the npw slz-story
block of Bibley & Holm wood, candy manu
facturers. On the opposite aide of Wells
street, a little further, was the Broeiol
House, a massive six-story structure, whose
guest wore up and drossed a few minutes
af'er the alarm.
The flames hud a good bold of tho Root &
Keating building and at three o'clock the
flames were a boiling and seething mass,
entirely tilling that part of Carroll street In
front of the doomed building. A few min
utes after three o'clock tho hoat was so In
tense aa to bo alinoit unbearable, even at
Beneca street. The sky was Illuminated for
miles and crowds from all parte of the city
' kept the police busy. At 8:25 the rear of iba
iz-atiiry brick building of Sibley At Holm
wood had caught and portions of the back of
the Broeiol House were smoking. There
were nearly fifty tons of starch stored In top
" floors of the Bibley dc Holmwood building,
according to the etatemont c f one of their
employee, and the atorch burnellike tinder,
carrying the flames from the rear to the front
of the building in a short time.
In a tew minutes the southwest corner of
the Broeiol House was bu nlng fast. The
f uesU wore moving out their baggage and
a number of firemen went to the aid of the
guests in the hot iL The wind shifted to the
northwest and the sleot came down tn tor-
rents, wbicb added to the difficulties under
which the firemen labored. At 8:40 o'clock
the roof of H. F. Euan's whisky store. Just
east of the Broeiel House, was on Are. The
firemen on Beneca street directed their ef
forts to the building on the other side of the
street. The front of the Broezel House had
become a mass of flames. Shortly before
four o'clock the sixth Boor of the Bibley
Holmwood store fell with ft tremendous
crash, sending storm of debris and embers
In all directions. At this time the too floor
pf the Jewett building appeared ft roaring
oven.
The scene on Carroll street waa appalling.
Ob the north aide of the street the Bibley &
Holmwood building was blaxlng from base
ment to root. The large alx-story building
occupied by Moffat Bros., Hoffdld tt Co.,
ad other firms on the opposite side next to
Ue Root A Keating ruins was yet un
touched, butat 4:10 o'clock the oornersof
the top story began to blase, though tho
Iranian held them In cfaeok for a time. The
Ealls of the Jewett bock now began to
ilge and the crowd gave ft bowl of warn
g to the firemen.
It 4:15 the walls fell with shock that
fairly ahook the surrounding walls, and bo
fore the eloud of dust cleared away a torrl-
pie panic took place. A frantic straggle
eras made In getting oat the horses from
table next to the Jewett block. The Broe
iel House was abandoned to the flames and
In short time the front of the hotel fell la
with thundering oraah and the flremen In
front narrowly escaped. One fireman waa
felled to the ground, but a heroic follow-
-orker rushed to his assistance and otrrled
him off. Despite the efforts of the dromon,
Bgan's whisky store waa In full blase.
There waa notnlng to do but leave the fire
. About noon number of firemen were nt

Read these testimonials :
" For two years X suffered from ft e
rnre pain in my right aide, and had
other troubles caused by a torpid liver
mid dyspepsia. After giving sevural
medicine a fair trial without a cure, I
began to take Ayer's Sarsuiiarllla. I
was greatly benellted by the Hint bottle,
nnd after taking fire bottles I waa uum-
I Mutely cured." John W. Benson, 70
.uwrunee St., Lowell, Mas.
Lost May a large carbuncle broke out
on my arm. The usual remedies had no
effect and I was confined to my Imd for
eight week. A friend Induced me to try
Ayer's Sarsanarilla. Less than three
bottles healed the sore. Iu all inyexpe
rieuce witli medicine, I never saw more
Wonderful Results.
Another marked effect of the use of t Is is
medicine was the strengthening of my
si'jht." Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly
Springs, Texas.
" I had ft dry scaly humor for years,
nd sulTered terribly ; and. as my broth
er and sister were similarly afiliuted, I
presume the malady Is hereditary. Last
winter, Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina,
Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer's
Sarsaparllla, and continue it fur a year.
For five months I took it dully. I have
not had a blemish uiwu in v body fur the
lust three month.' T. E. Wiley, 14d
Chambers St., New York City.
" Last fnll and winter I was troubled
with a dull, heavy pain in my aide. I
did not notice tt much at first, but it
gradually grew worse until it became
almost unliearable. During the Utter
part of tills time, disorders of the stom
ach and liver increased my troubles. I
began taking Ayer's Sarsaparllla, and,
after faithfully continuing the use of
this medicine for some months, the pain
disappeared and I was completely
cured." Mrs. Augusta A. Furbuah,
Haverhill, Moss.
