STUBBORN FIRE.
Nearly $300,000 Worth of Property Destroyed in New York City.
NEW YORK, April 15.—One of th most stubborn fires with which the fire department has had to contend recently started in some mysterious manner last night in the boilerroom of the 5-story brick building, 78 Grand street, occupied wholly by business firms, most of which represent large European houses and deal principally in silks, dress goods and kid gloves.
The firemen fought the flames for nearly three hours before they were under control, but succeeding in keeping the blaze in the westerly end of the building. The loss is estimated to be in the neighborhood of $300,000 and is covered by insurance.
During the course of the fire two firemen were partially overcome by smoke and one of them was burned ^bout the face and was also cut by falling glass.
The principal losses are 0. A. Auff mord & Company, importers Frank Morse, dress doods Hugo Bondy kid gloves, and Dexter, Lambert & company, silks.
PEARL BRYAN'S HEAD.
Positive Proof That It Was Thrown Into the Ohio River.
CINCINNATI, April 15.—At Newport, Ky., yesterday, the attorneys for the commonwealth made an official announcement that they would prove that Jackson and Walling were together on the Covington suspension bridge soon after the murder of Pearl Bryan, and that they were seen throwing the head of the murdered girl into the Ohio river.
They state that this information is given out because of the continued demands from interested parties, to know whether or not the prosecution has any evidence as io the disposition of Pearl Bryan's head. The attorneys will not let anyone know who are the witnesses in this connecting link until the trial begins next Tuesday.
All Saved hut Two,
ST. JOHN'S, N. F., April 15.—All the men who went adrift on the ice made their way ashore or were rescued by boats except two. The boats got within a mile of one of these, and then lost sight of »him in the darkness and he perished. The other man is supposed to have been drowned. Several of the rescued men were driven to eat their leather boots before being found. Much relief is felt that the loss of life was so slight, there having been only three deaths, whereas fully a thousand men were sealhunting on the ice.

An Ohio Womau Becomes the Mother of Peculiar Twins.
LORAIN, O., April 15.—The wife of B. McPherson, a railway conductor, has given birth to double children, having two heads, four arms, four legs and two complete organizations. The uniting link reaches from the shoulders to nearly the top of the double head.
The babes face in opposite directions, and when one's breathing is not easy, the other cries as if in great pain. The main baby is perfectly formed, but apparently the extra child is provided with incfenendent pulse and lungs. The Icvi-cl* limbs, although correct in shape, are partly drawn up toward the body. Mrs. McPherson is 38 years of age, of short stature and of healthy appearance, and is the mother of five bright and healthy children.
