Caution =. 10 Fires.

Families are estimated to average
about five members each In conserva-
tive. general computation. II is mod
crate to say one-tenth of our popula-
ton is industrial, needing fire in their
multifarlous occupations, which SO far
as they go Is duplication OF fire,
since there Is at least one fire in every
family TO which they respectively be-
long. Hence, there are, say, sixteen
thousand fires kept burning daily in
the industrial city of Wilmington of
$1,000 population. For brevity we will
designate the various. stoves, heaters,
furnaces ETC., in which these fires are
confined, by the term heater, as they
are all used to produce heat.
Not SO easily can we suggest the
different ways in which accidental
fires, which destroy property, occur.
The other day we heard coal drop
out of the stove on the floor In q pro :
fessional office. The anthracite had
been heaped upon the fire as it was a
cold day. When 1t burned up SO that
the air of the room got too hot for
comfort, the stove door was thrown
open and SO left. In how many OF the
10000 fires in our city is this thing
done every day.
When the fire caused shrinkage
and Il Earring of the Goals one of them
rolled out on the floor. "rhere!" We
exclaimed, lis one way In which acct
dental tires that destroy property oc.
cur, for had no one been In this room
there would soon have been a conila
grafton"
People should always have all fires
| confined in heaters 50 th0t it is impoS
sible for any of it to fall out and &c
! protected from everything, infiamma
bic that nothing can catch fire outside
of the heater, even II it is left unob
served for whole night or q who'll,
day.
Under the heater there should b,
brick, stone. tile or metal flooring. l
should be so remote from all woot
work that il it gets red hot for hour
aud no person sees IL nothing will tx
mite. BE careful OF your tires.

and the Democratic candidate at Chi
cago. Which will nominate the next |
President of the United States is "a
question yet to be determined. In a
fair and square canvass, that question
would be determined far in advance in
favor of the Republicans. But it is
settled already that the Repub Leans
will have to fight Internationally de.
termined political burglars, who hav-
Ing held the solid south as stolen
goods. have added to their thefts the
State OF New York. which brings them
near the Presidential goal.
All that will be left and needed for
them to steal will be twenty-eight cleo
toral votes. They will get thirteen OF
them in New Jersey possibly six mora
of them In Connecticut, which will
bring them within nine OF an election.
These they must get in Indiana OF in
Iowa. The number OF electors they
have stolen in Michigan by the district
system will not see them through,
even with the addition OF Montana's
three votes, if they get them they
would fail. lndiana's fifteen would
give them enough with six to spare, or
Iowa would give them enough with
four to spare.
Fortunately, the Democrats will
have to fight for either OF the states
named. All the ingenuity of politi-
col burglar like Hill will do them no
good. They will have to enter into
an honest contest in these two states
anyhow. With the stolen South l59
votes, stolen New Jersey with IS votes
and stolen Now York with 36 votes
\ more, the Democrats have only fifteen
votes to get through an honest con.
test Fortunately they will have TO
contest three states TO get them, Con
neoticut, Indiana and Iowa. There IS
hardly particle of chance left to car
ny Iowa unless they nominate Cover :
nor Boieg.
Would Hill, having stolen New
York's Sc votes, like to give them tonny
but HIMSELF But the people though
defeated In their purposes will rule,

cratic frauds burglaries that have as.
toiished the nation, they will say at

The Carr murder trial is expected to
run over Into next week, and keep the
jurors locked up nights and on Sun
day.
Mr.. Hayes cross-examination of
George Houser was remarkable for ex-
pedition, completeness and efficiency.
He got the careful, obliging, conscien-
tious, sympathetic and genial wit
ness SO much under the power of his
own intellectual force and lines of
thinking that he weakened the witness
former statements as to positiyeness
without, however, injuring them as to
verlty-certainly not on the most i'm
portant facts.
Before he was through with him it
looked as though he had him where he
could carry him along his own lines OF
thought and get him to make the most
favorable statements he possibly
could and not violate his conscience.
1t was an interest ng episode.
1t is remarkable how differently two
witnesses, apparently both conscien-
tious and truthful saw tho same as
sault. Houser and Sparks both testi-
fled there was a beer glass used in
| striking and one person struck. Hous-
or saw Carr get after Basso and strike
him three OF four blows on the head
with beer glass.
Sparks saw Schooner Long strike
Basso with II beer glass back of the
right ear. Carr was striking at Basso
with his lists but lie was 50 drunk he
could not hit him. The next chapter
has testimony of other witnesses that
may throw light on this subject.
