Two hundred thousand dollars darr,a,c is what thi officials of the Grasselli Chvmical Company consider a conservative estimate of the fire Monday. Only prerrpt action on the part of the EaTt Chic.-iRO (Ire department prevented ht might h ive bet n a million dollar loss. The sstcm which was destroyed, although not the larnrst system of the company, was by no means a small system. The bulldiiiB which housed th: sytem was about two hunrded feet square arid seventy-rive l'cet hish. It stood in close proximity to storage tanks, the closest of which contained :tt the time in the neighborhood of C.non.O'.m pounds of sulphuric acid. If this tank had been destroyed the loss would have been many times what it was. Investigations show that the Are started frcm an acetylene torch in the hands of a welder, who was attempting to repair a leak in a pipe. In some, manner the flame was drawn into a fan and blown into the building. In only a fewminutes th f!rp was rating and th intense heat, melting the lead of which most of a sulphuric system is constructiii, caused the entire seventy-five foot ? wf-rk of leaden pipes to come crashin v t the ground. , The storage tanks are equipped with a pi re exte nding out at the top of the building through which water may be force 1 in case of fire, but the Grasselli water pressure vrjis not strong enough to for-.- s 'r'-am to the top of the tank. Fir Chief Srencer connected one of his lea-is to the pipe and the building was -lvi-!. r"i'.. EC the fire the city departrrep.' u? d h .50 feet of hose and had fix strearr.s on the building, four of which were pumped through the enp, n e s . AH cf the firemen suffered from the fire in an indirect way through the acM't. - -he chemicals on their shoes ar.J tint lie?. A slight pressure was enough to break a hole through the icul-:-iters leather of the shoes and the ?!?Mt pull was sufficient to cause a liTS-y hale in coats and trousers. It is expeetfi that the Grasselli Company wiU bear "he expenses of new shoes ani clothes w hich will be needed to replace those dc?-'rcyed by the acid.

Believed to be slightly demented. Juan Consulgers. ft Spaniard, twenty-tv.o years old, was frustrated in his attempt tu commit suicide at the Pennsylvania tracks and the Clark road east of Gary yesterday afternoon when he threw himself in front of a fast approaching train. William Casey, of Jollet. III., happened to see the man's rash at. He rushed to his aid. but found the half-crazed man obstinate and it was only after a hard struggle that he pulled hirn clear of the tracks just as the train rushed by. A short time later Consuigers broke loose from his captors and ran madly towards the lake, where hu had intended throwing himself into the water if his captors had not interfered. He was held until the arrival of the police and today he will be examined as to hid sanity. It waft found that Consulgers could talk but little Knglish and the polics secured the services of another Spaniard

to interpret for him. When he was

nsked, if he had any money he replird

that he had $S 00, but gave it away as he did not think he would need it any more. He also claimed that he had read in a Spanish paper that his people did not wish to see him again and h. thought that life did not hold anything in store for him anymore.

REPPA HEADS EAST CHICAGO BANK NOW

John K. Reppa. one of East Chicago's best known financiers, has been elected president of the East Chicago State bank, the oldest bank in the city and is being congratulated by a host of friends today on his elevation to the presidency of the important financial Institution which was founded in 1S99, Henry Schrage being its first president and H. T. Collison its second. The bonk is a million dollar Institution. Mr. Heppa has been in the banking business since 1906 and was cashier of the First Calumet Trust and Savings Bank for four years, resigning in 1914, at which time he was instrumental in organizing tha Twin "City Savings and Loan Association. He was made managing secretary, which position he still holds. In June, 1918. Mayor McCormack made him city controller of East Chicago, a position which he is filling with great credit to himself Rnd the administration. He has lived in East Chicago for seventeen years. At the meeting of the East Chicago bank officials George H. Mansell was made assistant cashier and Dr. A. G. Schlleker one of the directors.

Receiving advance notice of the arrival of the fourth and last car of government food.vGary residents were on hand bright and early at the city market this morning, and from the large crowd of eager buyers it is evident that the supply of canned egetables will be exhausted late this afternoon. The canned goods on sale consisted of string beans, corn, beans and tomatoes. All sold for ten cents a can with the exception of the tomatoes, which readilysold at twelve cents per can. With the disposal of this car it is not likely thnt the city purchasing committee will order any more food, at least not for some months.

The smoked bacon, of which the com-'

mitte ordered two cars did not sell as easily as the canned goods and the city had a large amount left on hand, it was shipped back to the government store in Chicago Monday.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC IS PROFITABLE.

LDEST AND BEST

L00D PURIFIEI

Time Makes No Mistakes.

We have never claimed that S. S. S. was a medicine to work wonders. ntr one that would cure every physical ailment or disorder. More than fifty years ago it was placed on the market and recommended as a blood purifier, and today, after a long and successful career, and, when its use has become almost universal, only the same honest claim is made for it that it will relieve those diseases and disorders arising from an impoverished condition of the blood. Time makes no mistakes, and the very best recommendation of S. S. S. is the fact that it has stood a long test and is now more generally used than ever before, and has the confidence, we believe, of a greater number of people than any other blood medicine. The blood is the most vital force of life; every organ, nerve, muscle, tissue and sinew of the body is dependent on it for nourishment and strength, and as it circulates through the system, pure and rich, it furnishes these different members the healthful properties needed to preserve them and enable them to perform their various duties. So long as the blood remains free from infection -we are apt to escape disease, but any impurity, humor or poison acts injuriously on the system and affects the general health. Postular eruptions, pimples, rashes, and the various skin affections, show that the blood is in a feverish conditoin as a result of

some humor, or the presence of an irritating, fiery acid. Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Scofula and similar blood disorders will continue to grow worse as long as the cause remains. A disordered condition of the blood may come frorn various causes, such as a sluggish condition of the system, imperfect bowel and kidney action, indigestion, etc.; but whatever the cause the blood must be purified before the body can be healthy. S. S. S. is a natural blood purifier and tonic. It is made entirely of the harmless juices and extracts of roots, herbs and barks of recognized medicinal value, and being free from all harmful minerals is an absolutely safe medicine for young or old. S. S. S. goes into the circulation. It freshens and enriches the blood and will do for you what it has done for thousands of others. S. S. S. is the most reliable and at the same time a most pleasant acting medicine for those whose blood has become impoverished and needs building up. A course of S. S. S. will prove to you its great efficacy, as it has in numerous other cases which have been reported to us by grateful patients. Do not continue to suffer because of wrong treatment, but go to your drug store and commence taking S. S. S. today. Also write fully to our head physician, who will give you full instructions about your own case. Address Medical Director, 412 Swift Laboratory, Atlanta, Georgia. Adv.
