A Pitiable Incident of the L a k e
view Plre.
Cleveland, March 6.—This id one
of the tragedies of the Lakeview
school fire:
One of the faces in the wall that
Clocked up the rear door of the
burning school wih that of Jennie
Phillis, aged fifteen. Mrn. John
Phillip, who live* a few doors from
the building, was one of the first to
get to the fire, hhe picked out her
daughter’s face among the scores of
those she saw. Volunteers had
formed a cordon about the door,
but the agonized mother broke
through and rushed into the passage
way.
“un, Jennie, please come oat:
begged the mother.
“I can’t ma; oh, help me if you
can!” cried the child.
The mother seized both of her
daughter’s hands an 1 pulled with
all her strength, but she could not
drag Jennie out from the crush.
Mhe turned to men who were in the
passage way and begged them to
help her.
One man pulled with the mother
at Jennie's arms, but they could not
more her.
“It’s no use, ma,” said the girl.
“I’ve got to die.”
At that Mrs. Phillis became re
signed to her daughter's late. 8he
held the girl’s hands, and the two
talked far some minutes together.
The tire crept up through the mass
of beads. A tongue ot it blew out
over Jennie’s head. It began to
scorch her hair. Then the mother
thrust her bare hand into the flame.
8he stroked her daughter's hair and
kept the tire away as long as she
could. “Oh, thank you, ma,”
breathed the dying girl. It was the
last she said.
They dragged the mother from
out the smoke and flame. It wax
found that her hand with whioh
• be had stroked the fire from her
daughter’s head was burned to the
bone. Falling glass had cut an
artery in her wrist. She was cared
for by doctors at the scene.

the fact that it is pleasant to take and

Mr. W. H. Pelham, a merchant of Kirks
rilie, Iowa, says: “For more than twen
ty years Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
has been my leading remedy for all
throat troubles. It is especially success

He attempted to board a Htreet car
at the approach to Big Sandy bridge
and hail nrA gotten a firm hold,
when his body came in contact
with the railing at the bridge’*
approach, canning him to release hi*
hold on the car. He wa« precipitat
ed to the ground, several feet be
low. During his descent his body
came in contact with protruding
bridge limbers which indicted prob
ably internal injuries. Mr. Ford
was removed to his home in the
Gate City and a physician summon

ported in a precarious condition.
Fred and Glen Talborn, brothers,

given a preliminary exainiaation.
’Squire Crossen hound the prisoners
over to the grand jury and sent them
to jail. For several months past
cars have been broken into on the
local yard at intervals. These dep
redations have cost the railroad
company thousands of dollars. Only
a few weeks since a car was entered
and ransacked from end to end. A
large box of imported silks was
broken open. The thieves trampled
the goods beneath their feet and
practically luined the whole lot.
After doing this they concluded to
quench their thirst an J accordingly
stole 36 quarts of whisky. The peo
ple who are doing this devilment are
very cunning and it is a hard task

ure was started several years ago by
x-Sciiator IJ. G Voting, of Upshur
county, when he waa in the State
Senate.
“President McDermott's Senate
bill No. 5, is a good law, long
needed, an it prevents one railroad
from keeping out another under
certain circumstances. It does not
go far enough, but in an excellent
starter in the work of freeing the
•Mato from the slavery of railroad
domination.
“The Ohio ballot law, Senate
bill No. 26, or House bill No. 23,
and a fairly good registration law,
Senate bill No. 40, were urgently
needed. They are the result of
several years effort. The ballot law
is particularly excellent. It was a
long struggle to get the county offi
cers’ salary law passed. Difficulties
to frame a law that would meet the
very diverse conditions in the differ
ent counties and to defeat the lobby
were great. If the law is not quite
as good as its friends hoped, it is
equally true that the lobby met se
vere defeat in the enactment of
House bill No. 36. It is a tine
starter.
“The school people are pleased
over the passage of House bill No.
37, revising the whole of the school
law. The bill is substantially that
reported by the commission ap
pointed by me in 1006, who got
their bill in too late for the last
session. The sohool people have a
right to feel good, for they have at
last succeded in a much needed
matter. The special session has
been s splendid success.”
