is that for which it stands—a union of

they made it. and by the people. for
they conduct it. and for the people. for
it has missed its object if it does not ac-

"It stands for a Government of law;

Animals Understand llyglens.
Enough is now known of the nature
of animal materia medics to excite in-
terest and curiosity. There is abundant
evidence that many species know and
constantly make use of simple remedies
for definite disorders. and at the same
time observe rules of health to which
only the highest civilization or the
sanction of yeligious prescription coin<
pols man to conform.
It has been noted that the general
condition of animal health. especially in
the cats of the herbivorous creatures,
corresponds not inexactly with such
tribes as the Somalis. men feeding al-
most solely on grain. milk. dates and
water. living constantly in the open air,
moderate in all things. and cleanly. be-
cause their religion enjoin: constant
sblutions.
Like them. wild animals have no in-
duced diseases: the greater number do
not eat to excess: they. take regular ex-
ercise in seeking their food and drink
only at fixed hours. Many of them se-
cure change of climate. one of the
greatest factors in health. by mi-
gration.
This is not confined to birds and
beasts. for the salmon enters the soft
water partly to get rid of sea parasites.
and returns to the sea to recruit after
spawning.
With change of climate. change of
diet, and perfectly healthy habits. their
list of dlsorders is short. though they
readily fall victims to contagious dis-
ease. just as recently numbers of the
Hamlin Arabs of the Boudsn. as healthy
livers and good Mussnlmans as the So-

A threestory. stonefront. brick strnc- l
ture occupies the site where. in 1871.
stood the O‘Leary cottage. The struc- l
ture is used as a list building. Upon a
large stone in the front of the house at F
No. 187 Dckoven street appears fliers
words:
The grth fire of 1871 originated here
And extended to Lincoln Park.
Chicago Historical Society. 1881.
Mrs. O‘Lcary moved away from No.
187 Dekovcn street in 1879. taking up ‘
her residence‘nea'r the stockeyards. But
she was frequently seen afterward in
the neighborhood of her old home. She
seemed to take pride in being pointed
out, but always indignantly denied that
her cow started the great fire of 1871.
The story relative to the cow and the
fire. as told by a man named Klerker.
of Chicago. who says he was at Mrs.
O‘Leary’s house the night the fire
started. was as follows: ‘
Mrs. O'Lcary had arranged to give a .
party. During the evening the alarm-
ing information was given out that the
house was short of milk. A young lady
who was present said that as Mrs. l
O'Leary was a dairy woman she ought
to have a cow. and that she( the guest)
would go out and milk the animal. Mrs.
O'Leary consented to this. and the young
lady. taking a pail in one hand and a
tin lantern in which there was a candle l
in the other. went into the barn in the
rear of the house. She put the lantern
down near a pile of hay. Being unfa-
miliar with the modus operandi of milk~
ing, she approached the wrong side of
the cow. Thereupon the cow kicked the ’
young lady over. In falling she struck
the lantern and the candle ignited the
hay. and the wind did the rest.
The Chicago fire started at 8. 45 o'clock
P. M.. Sunday. Oct. 8. 1871.,and it was
not extinguished until 10.30 o‘clock
Monday night. Within a space of 28'
hours something like 18.000 buildings.
were consumed. and nearly 100.000 per-
sons wcre made homeless. The total
area burned over was 3.124 acres. The
fire traversed on an average 05 miles an
hour. and. according to a reliable esti-
mate. the average destruction of prop-
erty for the same time was about $7.-
500,000.01' $21M)" a minute.
The burned district was about four
miles in length. from north to south.
and twothinls of a mile in breadth. on
the average.
The origin of the fire is still a mys-
tery. though the generally accepted
theory is that it was caused by Mrs.
O'Leary'scow kicking over a kerosene
lamp or a lantern. There was an offi-
cial investigation made not long after
the fire. and about fifty witnesses were
examined. but there was not a word
of tcstinumy as to how or by whom the
couflagrution was started.

' “I am Mrs. Buchanan.” said the wom-
an. “I must see the Governor."
"You cannot see him." said the
valet. ‘
“But I must! Imust! I shall see him!”
insisted the woman.
"Madam." said the valet. "the Gov-
ernor has not arisen yet. He must not
be disturbed. You cannot see him. ”
“011.1 must see him!" moaned the
woman. beginning to cry. “I can’t‘
wait; I must see him now. Don't you‘
I know that every minute is 9’00“”? Take this matter of mortgaged farms.
Don’t you know?"
The valet leaned against the door as if .
he feared she would push it in.
“I don‘t think.” he said. “that the
Governor will see you at all. Has he
not refused to see you?"
"But lmust! I must! He must see
me!" cried Mrs. Buchanan. “I shall
stay till I see him. I must see him
right away. even if I have to go to his
room! ' Every minute now is valuable!"
And a fresh shower of tears came.
The valet‘s heart was melted.
"Well." he said. at last. “If you are
Mrs. Buchanan. I‘ll see if the Governor
willsee you. Come inside."
The Governor. it appears. was awak-
sued by the talk between the valet and
the woman at the door. Hc stood in an
upper ball when she was admitted. He
askfd if it was Mrs. Buchanan. and then
sau :
“Tell her I will be right down.“
Twenty minutes later he stepped into
the reception room where Mrs. Buchau~
was. '
“So. Mrs. Buchanan." he said. "you
have come to see me again. have you?"
Mrs. Buchanan fell on her knees at
his feet and began to plead as only a
woman can plead. again and again the
Governor said:
"I am sorry for you. very sorry. but I
am afraid you must bear this great
trouble now. Nothing can be done."
She seized his hands. Her body shook
with her sobs. She begged for justice;
she protested over and over again that
her husband was not guilty. She plead-
ed for mercy. the tears streaming down
her face. She bowed her head to the
floor. She moaned in the agou y of her
despair.
The Governor. seated in a chair in
front of her. tried to soothe her. He
had not an unkind word for her. though
i
l
he had forbidden her to see him again, =
and had told her it would be useless.
;He told her once more that ho pitied
her. She says:
"He did pity me. for he cried while I
begged for mercy."
He told her that he Would aid her in
