PREVENTION OF FIREs.-Some sensible sug-
gestlons as to the prevention of fires were made
by the committees of chief engineers, which
closed its sessions in New York last Friday
Among those Of importance were the following:
That inspection of buildings in course of con-
structon should be more frequent, and should
be required at least at the laying Of each set of
buildings in which many men were EMPLOYED,
the employees should be drilled In the use of
hose, to hold ire in check till the regular fire.
men could arrive; and that the system OF fire.
alarm telegraphs should be made more complete
and thorough. 1t Is satisfactory to know that
the committee find the various kinds OF tire-
engines so perfect that they are not willing to
recommend any one above the other.

HORSE NOTES.

AS we predicted, the $4,000 purse offered by the
Prospect Park Fair Grounds Association for Gazelle
and Judge Fullerton, did not fill, and we are quits
sure that no race will take place between these
great horses until the Trainers and Drivers rulea
are recognized as well those OF the National Asso.
citation. The members OF the various associations
throughout the country are considerably exercised
at the present moment-particuarly those thai
have announced the amount they intend to give in
purses--as to the prospects before them, and they
begin TO fear that their great iberaity will have tor
come out Of their pockets this year instead Of
ell OF 1t being made up OF entrance money by the
owners Of horses as heretofore. How different the
Jockey Clubs OF this country act compared with the
National Associations for the promotion OF trottng.
The former give purses in many instances without
entrance money; but where they take it they gfve
IL to the second horse in the race and the horse
that distances the field always gets the whole Of

making the owners OF the horses contribute the
money Is . mean business at best. and the public
