FIRE ON THE TEKOA.

> Twenty Toas 2?owder Abaard- Narrow Escape ' Press Aaaociation — By Electric Telegraph— Dunedin, April 11 While the Tekoa, bound from London tc Port Chalmers was hove to m a gale on Fri day morning last, Mr Swarm, chief en : gineer, on making Ma usual tour of inspec tion, discovered that a fire had broken out m the No 3 hold, or refrigerating compart ment. Captain Hammon, with his officers' and men on watch, went into the hold and found that No 3 chamber was fully alight, and indeed thut the flames were closely approaching the magazine containing 6ome twenty tona of powder and other com bustibles, which were only six feet distant. All combustibles were hove overboard, and the men then managed to extinguish the fire, which was probably occasioned by spontaneous combusoion — a quantity of iron having been stowed m that part of her hold.

No Building Big Enough

Probably the two woman whoss cames we are about to mention (by their good will and consent) never saw or even heard of each other. A broad bit of sea- water rolls between the places where they severally live. Still, the world is getting smaller every day, and it is quite possible they may meet ; if they do, they will have a common eulj ct for a talk. Without waiting for that, however, we will let the reader in'o the secret (ao far as it is a secret) right on the spot. The first lady to be named resides at , Bishop's .NorsoD, near Uirton. Linddey, Lincolnshire, and m a letter dated the 16 h of the blustering month of March, 1893, she says, *' I trtmbled from he to foot." This wonld scarcely be worth mention ing if it had been simply the result of a fright and therefore bound to pass off m a few minutes But it lasted for a long time and did not aride from a fright or any other form of excitement. It means sheer weakness and a wholesale upsetting of the nerves. **I was constantly f-ick and dizzy," eayp, '* and had » doll pain between the should rs I had no appe tite, and the effect of what little I dil eat was so bad and gave me so much distress that after a time I hardly dared touch aty food or dribk. Durirg this period 1 may just mention that I was terribly coubii^ated, intervals of ten days s me timo* elßpxiitg between the actions of iha bowels. JSo bxfttiv. sor enemas availed the relieve this cemiitio •, and I bicame more fseble and prostrated day by a&y My illness be an m August, 1892. and afiflr four months' suffering I was ci.iiu p'etely cured m December by your reme dy. T dted it was not nee- Bt>ai y for me to take quite one bott'e If anyone who re*ds this little statement of of mint' wislies to know about my easa, 1 w«l ; eladly »n rt w«r er-quH«-s. (Sitne ) Mr.- M, G. Walsbam" The second lady, writes fiom her he me, No 12, Hurg«.'a LuilciugM, o<>u e^. Koad, Cork, daiing her letter ihe 27 •r> o oi: the bunny month of J-iie, 1893. Shi s*ss, •'Everything w*B a trouble fend a butoen. For nights toge'ht-r I Rot n sleep. I c uklu'ti bear th« noise of im children. 1 had uo deure for company; I wanted to be a'one m my misery 1 often thought 1 was g;iin« to die. I was m this w»y for newly twelve months." Now this was bad ; very, very lad. When a woman can't bear the noise of her own children— wheh of all noises is leaM observed Vy a mothrr'fl ear— why, her nerves are, as me might say, all gone to pieces. And, ma-much aa the nervea are only a part of the body, it follows thai the whole system is badly out of order. And bo it waa. •• The compia'nt,'' she says, "came on m Oc ober, 1860.' It was marked by failure of the appetite, pain and weipht m the chest after eating, bilious- ness, flatuency, and other signe with which the readers of the^e articles are so familiar. Of the progress of the malady and how Ioj? It reduced her she has already spoken. The end of it all— a happy end thank Mercy— was like this. "In Sep tember, 1891," she adds, "my husband persuaded me to try a medicine he had heard and read so much about. I did so, and scon found relicf — a relief that none of the other medicines were able to give me. fl/ly lost appetite came back, and my food digested easily and strengthened me. You hardly need be told that I continued taking the medicine, and soon I was well as over I was m my life and have ailed nothing since. Yours truly, (Signed) Mrs Lucy Carroll." Women, like men, ne^er agree on all the topics whicli come up m conversation. It would be a duli world if they did. But those two will agreo that they were i.fflctcd with the same complaint — mdi gestion and dyspepsia ; and that Mother i ytsigel's Curative Syrup, which restored ( them both to health, is one of the very t best friends m time of trouble that theii sex ever had. And what is mere, if all the women m this kingdom who think the same were collected m one meeting, r,o building could be found big enough to accomodate them.



THE UNEMPLOYED. ♦ Mr E. G. Wright, fel H.R., m the in- terests of the unemployed m the district-, wrote as follows to tbe Minister for Publio Works :— The Minister for Public Works, Welling* ton. — If Government have decided to stark the railway works on the Waimakarirl, X wish to urge the necessity for immediate action, a? there are scores of able-bodied men m this county now seeking employment which the farmers are unable to give them, owing to their excessive losses this season. Oblige me with an early reply. — Edwabd G. Weight. The Minister replied by wire as .follows : — "E.G. Wright, Etq., M.H.R., Winslow. —Re unemployed. We have already nearly thirty men working at Springfield. Shall be taking on a few more next week, and shall ascertain from labor agent at Ashbur* ton the number who have applitdjfor work.
