A HEROIC FIREMAN.

He Rescued Four Lives at a Single Fire
In New York.
A hero in humble life was recognized
In New York lately by the gift of
gold medal. He richly deserved it, a
fact which appears in this record of his
deeds, published in the Christian at
Work:
A sergeant of fire patrol in this city,
John r. Vaughan, was present at the
fire in the Hotel Royal a month ago. At
window In one of the upper stories
was gathered a group with anxious
faces-a father, mother and child
waiting, perhaps, to die together.
At the next window, in an adjoining
building appeared tt sergeant of our pa.
troll. The distance was too great tc
reach. Without hesitation he threw
himself down, resting one arm upon
the sill and entwining his leg around
telephone wire, fortunately convenient
ly near; with his other arm, one by one
he conducted this group of three over
his PROSTATE body, as bridge, to win.
dow of safety.
His work was not yet done. Ascend
ing the roof he discovered man stand
Ing upon the sill of window in another
portion of the house, doubling whether
to meet death by jumping or wait to be
overtaken by the fire.
Shouting to him to wait and he would
save him, Mr.. Vaughan rushed to the
street, and calling upon his comrades to
follow, assembled to the roof of another
adjoining building; hastily throwing of
his coat, his companions holding him by
his legs he threw himself head downward
over the cornice, md with their assist
apce, raised this man of over two hun.
dred pounds in weight to the roof. The
rescue was completed; these lives were
saved.
Mr.. Vaughan was presented with
gold medal commemorating his heroism.
And he richly deserved it. He was
true hero, and none the less so that he
performed his deeds in the line of his

A PROTECTIVE tariff, when properly

a PROTECTIVE tariff, when properly
levied, is always levied for the beue-
mt OF the entire people of the United
States. ln protective duty is not
levied III the interest of the many (u,,
for the few, then such duty is not
defensible. A protective tariff is not

OF benettting few individuals. Pro-
lection is u question which relates to
National growth and National pros
perity. Rightly understood, it is not
local i'll its influence and It's benefits
are not hemmetl in by lines of latitude
Or longitude. The true apostle of
Protection would carry it's blessings
into every nook and corner OF this
great country. Wherever he finds
American labor struggling for recog-
milton and sustenance, in compete
ton with the poorly paid labor out
side OF this Nation, he would instant
~ protect ind tnke care OF the
struggling workman among our own
people. In short, Protection is
simply the law Of self-prsservation
applied to our people taken as u
whole. Its whole object is to enable
our people to take care OF them
selves. Under Protection the Gov
eminent builds no TACT cries, "Opens no
mines, invests no capital ana loans
no money to any citizen. The law
makes it possible for people who
have individual energy, courage and
business pusl, to build these factories
and do all these things themselves.
1t creates no monopoly; every Amer
lean citizen is left free to engage in
each and every industry. 1t gives
no one citizen, in any way, an adj
vantage over any other citizen. Tie
whole object and effect Of the law is
to protect our own people against
inequalities between US and the out

the collections of the big art dealers and coll
Iectors and asking the date of importation and
the amount of duty paid on the imported mas
terpieces. The vast number of those treasures
that have been smuggled into the country has
surprised tho inspectors. The investigation is
not confined TO New York, but to all art centers
in the country. The agents have not yet OBJ
tanned sufficient evidence, they say, to make q
public statement
