JUSTICE MURRAY AND THE RAG-PICKERs.

President Shaler of the Board of Health, several
DAYS AGO gave orders to the Sanitary Police to make
arrests for violations of Section 81 of the Sanitary
Code which prohibits the scattering OF ashes aud
garbage from barrels or boxes on the sidewalks
Commissioner Coleman had complained that Italian
rag-pckers violated that section of the code IN some
parts of the city TO such extent that II was I'M
possible for his employees to keep the streets clean
Since Monday the policemen of the Sanitary squad
have arrested lei rag-pickers who recklessy threw
ashes out of reeeptacles The prisoners who were
taken before Police Justices Smith, Power and
White were fined from 81 to S. each, or held for
trial. About forty of the offending rag-pick crs
were taken to the YOrkville Police Court where
Police Justice Murray was sitting. He promptly
discharged them, although the policemen called his
attention to the section of the Sanitary Code. In
the Office of the Board of Health Yesterday it
said that Justice Murray probably thought that he
was frustrating some persecution Oh the part OF u
police captain.

Guarding Against Fire.

Although farm buildings are comparative
ly safe, and are insured at much cheaper
rates than village property. fires are not in-
frequent, in which the dwelling. or the barn
and its contents are consumed and the own
ers suffer loss that embarrasses him for
years, or for life. Timely precaution would
prevent most of the fires, or reduce the dam
age to the minimum. There is more or less
danger, when all precautions have been
taken, and every owner of farm buildings
should have them insured with his crops and
stock, at least to the half of their value.
Then if fire comes, the loss will not cripple
him. Having done this, he may do many
other things TO guard against the usual
sources of fire. Many dwellings are fired,
especially in winter, from putting ashes and
Goals in barrels under woodsheds OF beside
wooden fences or out-buildirgs. If barrels
must be used for this purpose, place them
where. if they burn, they will not fire any
thing else. Ii is safer to have a stone or
brick ash house made for the purpose. Cigar
stumps, or pipes carelessly emptied of their
burning tobacco, are the frequent cause of con
fagration. The farmer should be prepared to
extinguish fires when they are kindled
Every farmhouse should be provided with
long ladder, either kept in place upon the
roof or stored near by. 1t is great safe
guard to have water brought into the house
by means Of pump, or stored in cistern in
the garret to feed stationary wsshbowls, and
to be available on short notice to quench
flames. Lacking these, water should be
kept in pals on every floor ready for imme-
diate use.-American AgrieulfUYist.s
