United States Life.Saving Stations.

The ife-saving stations are now scat
tered so thickly along the coast that
their appearance is familiar to the yearly
growing number of people who spend
their vacations on the sea-shore. They
are two story buildings, with gable
roofs, from eighteen to twenty feet wide
by from forty to forty-fve in length,
with little observatory on the peak f
the roof, from which runs up flag staff.
There are two rooms on the first floor,
the larger of which occupies about two.
thirds of he space, and is used for stor>
ng the boats, life car, wreck suns and
most of the other apparatus. The other
room, which is about twelve by sixteen
feet, is the general living room of the
crew. Upstairs there are three rooms
one for the storage of the lighter ap-
paratus, one for the sleeping room OF the
keeper and one for that of the men
with fourth 70 om for the signal officer
at stations where there is communica-
ton with the signal service. The
houses OF refuge on the Florida coast are
two story structu res, with broad gabled
roofs, about thirty-seven feet long by
fifteen wide, with broad Veranda run
ming around three sides. Each house
has capacity for twenty 6ve persons,
and is kept supplied with provisions
enough to feed that number for ten days.
A boat-house is also attached, furnished
with galvanized iron boat with SOULS.
The life boat stations are about
twenty feet wide by forty long, with one
large room below and a loft above.
They are either placed on piles at tie
waters edge or set on the inner side OF
the piers. and are furnished with an in
clined platform, or trap in the floor.
through which the life-boat is let down
and launched into the water by means OF
windlass. A complete fe saving
station, with a full equipment. costs
about 5000; life-boat station about
81, 500; and house of refuge about
SO 900. The inha bited stations are fur
nished by the government with ing,
stoves, cooking, utensi sis, ETC., ut the
crews find their own provisions.
The crew of q com plete station con-
81 is of the keeper and six men, the first
of whom receives $500 year and the
men $40 per m onth, which. as has been
already said, usually extends from the
first of September to the first OF May.
The volu lteer crews at life-boat stations
consist Of eight persons besides the
keeper, who are required to be on the
watch for the signal Tor their assembly
in thick or stormy weather, an receives
So apiece for every day devoted to drill
and $40 each whenever they turn out
for wreck. The intention is to nave
the life saving sta 'ions form a chain
along the coast within an average dls-
lance of five miles of each other, so that
a patrol may be maintained between
them ard several crews may be assem-
bled in case of serious disaster. Coca

O'Clock, Judge Ellison, being the ag-

were exchanged, the parties grappled.
Kinman. who was little man, was
crushed to the sidewalk, and finally
promised to apologize. Judge Ellison
went before the mayor, plead guilty to
an assault and was fined TWO dollars.

they would still be the property Of the
plaintiff and not subject to the execu-
ton: If 4 legal delivery had been made

then they were so subject. The judge
instructed the jury to bring in a verdict

they are correct, that Judge Ellison,
was only following well known and
common practice in all courts, where
mere point of law is to be decided,
and did not greatly transcend his
duty and privilege in the matter.
Such being the case, the provocation
was undoubtedly great one but it will
hardly excuse judge from stepping
down from the high position he occu-
pies to engage in street brawl. Self
government in such a case may be
difficult, but no man is fit to govern

The wonder Of the world has for

thriving villages IN this western coun-

portant business centers. The account
of this rapid development, sounds to
the slow-going eastern man, more like
the magical stories of Aladdin and his
wonderful lamp, than reality. Yet it is
often the case that half has not been
told.
One of the latest of these towns to
spring into importance is Haley City.
