rrtineutshing Fires by Electricity.

Fires have once in a while been caused by electricity, and 1t seems strange that the very source of danger can now be utilized as a cure for the i'll that 1t may create. The systems of automatic sprinkIing generally adopted are open to many objections, and are often found uncertain in action just at the moment when they are required. The main diff culties which have hitherto stood in the way are now overcome by the use of an electrical sprinkler.
 This modification comprises the use of a motor and pump and complete sys- tenn of sprinkler" pipes, which can be so arranged as to cover every part of the building it is desired to protect. Push buttons are placed in convenient posi- tions on every floor, and these start the motor and pump and open any valves which may be required for the extinction of the fire. It Is an immense advantage to thus be able to gain control of large masses of water and to lOcalize the flow. New York Telegram.

None but a genius could have exposed
his bare ankles to mixed crowd and
avoided expressions of disgust and
condemnation. Yet, Jerry did it, did
it artistically and with dispatch; did
it as an incident of innocency, with
such telling effect as would have
bankrupted all the sock factories OF
the united kingdom had he had the
world for an audience.

The vote of this district shows that
Chester /, Long received many more
votes than Prince Hal" did two
years ago. 1t also shows that the Re-
publicans largely increased their vote
by illegal. fraudulent and dishonest
means. 1t is not probable that one
hundred voters in the whole district
who voted for Jerry Simpson before
went back on him this time, as he re.
ceived more votes than two years ago
but the increase is reasonable and
natural, while Longs increase is SC
glaring and unreasonable as to prove
beyond a doubt that the Republicans

INDEPENDENT VIEW.

4 young lady about twenty years Of
age, who lives with her parents about
six miles east of town and is
known by a good many people here
made an unsuccessful attempt to
shuttle of this mortal coil by taking
rough on rats last Tuesday about
noon. DR.. Mcllhenny was hastily
summoned and with the aid Of a
stomach pump succeeded in saving
her life. We have not learned posi-
lively what caused her to decide to
quit this earth, but for a girl Of her
age that can usually be inferred. As
she has recovered, we refrain from
giving her name, because OF the good
name she has heretofore borne and
the respectability Of her family, who
stand high in the estimation OF
those in the neighborboOd where
they reside. II is to be
hoped that this young lady
will profit by the terrible experience
and learn what life was given TO her
