San Green, Colored llackman, and
Children Have Narrow Eocmpe?
Hones Bertouslv Damaged by Rre
Early Friday Morning and Negro
Loans Mighty hollars in Cash and
Practically All of Household Fur?
niture?Cause of Fire Unknown.
s ,m Green, a colored hackman
well known in the city, had s narrow
escape from being burned to death
? ally Friday morning when his house
??n Council Street caught lire and was
practically destroyed with all of the
furniture and household appurten?
ances.
Green and his two small sor.s were
iti un tip stairs room asleep when the
plastering from overhead was falling
on the foot of the bed and on the floor
of the room. The room w? full of
?moke and overpowerlngly not. lie
seised 'tie of the children .and ran to
th. door, hut when he had opened it
the flames ?and smoke hurst in so
that he was knocked down and near?
ly senseless. He struggled back to
the other side of the room and at
last found his two children huddled
up in one corner. He then dragged
them to a window, which he suceoed
? 1 in raising, after several futile ef?
forts, and pushed them out on the
sind. He then ran hack to get his
clothes, remembering his money
which he had left in his vest pocket,
and seizing his coat off the chair he
clambered out of the window. From
the shed he climbed down the col?
umn to the piaaaa and assisted his
two children to do likewise.
Green stated Friday morning that
it was the most terrible experience
lie had ever passed through. He said
that he had been out lMe, up to one
o'clock, when he returned honte. In
his veal pocket was eighty-one dol?
lars in currency and slightly more
than a dollar in silver. He had taken
-?ff his clothes down stairs and when
he started up to his room he had tak?
en his coal off the chair, thinking the
vest was with It. After the (ire he
had searched for the vest, but had
not been able to find it, either down?
stairs or elsewhere in the part of the
house which was left. He stated, as
his reason for having this large a
sum in his pocket, that he had a bill
to pay Friday and had decided not to
put the money in the bank, but to
keep it until then. j
Green stated that he did not know
the origin of the fire. It had pro?
bably started in his dining room
downstairs. He had a fire in there !
when he came home Friday morning
and it was his custom to leave a
light burning in that room, but he
? lid not remember whether or not
the light was burning when he went
to bed.
Practically all of the second story
of the building was burned and all of
the lower floor was badly damaged.
All of the household furniture ex?
cept a china closet and the furniture
In one room was destroyed, inc lud?
ing a piano.
Green stated Friday that there was
some insurance on the house and
furniture, hut not enough to cover
the loss.
A Cold, La Grippe, Then Pneumonia.
?Is too often the fatal sequence. La
Grippe coughs hang on, weaken the
system, and lower the vital resistance.
K. G. Collins, Postmaster, Barnegat,
N. J , says: "I was troubled with a
severe La Grippe COUgh which com?
pletely exhausted me. Foley s Hon?
ey and Tar Compound soon Stopped
the coughing spells entirely. It can't

Chronic Stomach Trouble Cured.
There Is nothing more discouraging
than a chronic disorder of the stom?
ach, and it Is not surprising that many
suffer for years with such an ailment
when a permanent cure Is within
their reach and may be had for a
trifle. "About one year ago," says P.
H. Reck, of Wakelee, Mich.. "1
bought a package of Chamberlain's
Tablets, and since using them I have
felt perfectly well. 1 had previously
used any number of different medi?
