by fright, when the two-story building
at 906 West Broad Street, occupied by ]
MorrU Braunau as a tailoring estab?
lishment on tho ground floor and llv
Ing quarters upstairs, collapsed at
noon yesterday. As In the case of
the "one-hoss shay," the dissolution
came without preliminary warning,
and It Is a miracle that there were no
fatalities. Had the accident occurred
a few minutes later a number of men
who were at work digging tho base
ment for a building to be erected next
door to tho collapsed structure, could
hardly havo escaped being burlod bo
neath the ruins. They had Just laid
aside tools for tho midday meal and
escaped Injury and poaBlble death by

FACE DISFIGURED

Covered with Eruption to Back of
Ears So They Hardly Knew What
He Looked Like, Used Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. In 4
Weeks Face Fineand Clean.
"Our little boy
with eczema, when
Gilbert wee troubled
but o few weekti old.
His little face was
covered with sores even
to back of his ears.
The poor little fellow
ruflercd very much.
The sores began as
pimples, his little face
was disfigured very
much. We hardly knew
what he looked like.
The face looked like
raw meat. We tied
ll'.tla bags of doth over
his bands to prevent
him from scratching.
He was very restless
at night, his little face
Itched.
"We consulted two
doctors at Chicago, where wo resided at thai
time. After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we read of the
Cuticura Remedies, and at once bought the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Following the
directions carefully and promptly we eaw
th? result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as aay little
baby's face. Every one who saw Gilbert after
using tha Cuticura Remedies was surprised..
He has a head of hair which is a pride for any
boy of his age, three years. We can only
recommend the Cuticura Remedies to every?
body." (Signed) Mrs. II. Albrecht. Box S83.

that the proper precautions wero not

tho derelict and the now building for

Got Children Away.
At the first preliminary rumblo she
scented danger, and grabbing the small
boys, rushed thum to tho buck door,
I whore sho encountered tho other two
boys. Thoy had been playing on Iho
outsldo stairway, and were running
away from the shower of bricks ana
glass. She screamed to then? to run,
and pushed the smaller children be
; yond the danger line. Before the other
two boys could gel to a position of
safety they wore caught by flying
bricks and plaster and knocked down.
Once outside of the building Mrs. Brat?
man sank Into a dead faint, and, to
i gather with the Injured buys, was car?
ried into tho adjoining store of it. Tie

Thought Cblld Wit Dead.
Attracted by the crash, Mrs. Kachel
Trctlck rushed out of doors in tlmo to
wltneBs the general avalanche of
brick work and plaster. A minute bo
Xore she had seen her little son at play
in front of tbo fallen building, and
fulling to find him at or.ee, she set up
a scries of shrieks that were heurd
tho length of tho block and brought the
crowd from all directions. Sho fell to
the pavement, crying and shrieking,
and was only calmed when confronted
with hor Louts, a good deal the worsa
for wear, but still on deck. The Tre
tlcb store was turned Into a temporary
hospital, and at the expiration of tin
mlnulos all the principals in the acci?
dent were repaired.
The wildest cf rumors were circu?
lated immediately after the crnsh. The
first news had it that five were dead
and others still to be heurd from, while
a fire alarm brought to tho scene tho
city's new tire engine nnd truck. A
cordon of police held the gathering
crowd In- check, while patrol wagons
stood by to render emergency assist?
ance. It was fully fifteen minutes be?
fore the real damage was established
and all fears allayed.
The household -furnituro on tho up?
per floor of the eoilupsed building was
the property of Mr. Brut man. and is a
I total wreck. Beds, chairs, tables and
dressers protruded from the debris
after the cave-In, showing that certain

tho accident ahppened early in the
morning, when the family was asleep.
