this year-and will disburse these contribu-

the Associated Charities. the police. the

Yours Truly.
Episode Of the House.

| A laughable in ident occurred il
the House last Tuesday. As soon a.
the journal had been approved JOIN
nj. Allen of Mississippi arose to 6
question of privilege. The Speaker
! asked him to state his question.
Representative Shell of South
Carolina was knocked down by a
cable car last night and nearly
killed, . said Mr.. Allen, ''and L want
to ask the gentleman from West Vir-
ginia, Mr.. Wilson, who, has charge
of the Repeal-of- the herman-Act
bill, what he thinks about it."
Not more than a half a dozen
members of the House knew that
Mr., Shell had been injured, and the
question of whether Allen was in
order went unchallenged,
81 did not know that Mr.. Shell
had been hurt, and am sorry to learn
of the fact, but | do not see how
what | might think Of the matter
can be turned into question of
privilege" was Mr.. Wilson's reply.
Representative Shell is free
silver man, said Mr.. Allen.
81 cannot see how there could
possibly be any relation between the
fact that Mr.. Shell was injured and
his position on the silver question,
Wilson responded.
Representative Oates of Alabama
was so severely injured on the same
car line about two weeks ago that he
has been unable to leave his bed"
Wilson made no reply, probably
for The reason that he did not know
what to say.
Representative Oates is free
silver man"
Still Wilson made no answer.
My colleague, Mr.. Hooker, was
SO seriously injured on the second !
day of the session by the same line
Of cars that he Is scarcely able to
walk, and he also is a free silver
man."
"All that | can say about the mat
er, " sad Mr., Wilson, ''is that the
INJURIES Of three free silver Repre-
entatives by the same line of cars {
we're merely fortuitous condolences. {
That, it seems to me, is the only ex-

Prior ; Hose Coupler.

The test made of Jack Prlor's hos,
coupler was a very successful one.
1t was attached to the Mint plug
where the pressure was 10 lbs,
and in the center Of a 50-foot length
of Eureka hose to the end of which
was attached pipe mounted with a
4-inch nozzle.
1t did not leak a drop and stood
more than the test to which it will
be ordinarily subjected. The chief
claim of the coupler is that it can be
adjusted in a second.
1t snaps together with two clamps
working with springs and stations
cry rubber cup on the inside, i.
pressed close by the pressure of the
water. Thus dong away with the
use of spanners, loose washers and
threads.
1t can also be uncoupled in sec
ond by releasing the clamps.
Some one, who evidently desired
to give the coupler black eye, loose
ened the cup and bent back one of
the clamps SO that it did not work.
In spite of these draw backs it held
itself in place with one clamp and
when the hose was kinked between
the nozzle and the coupling, a full
head of water was shot into the hose,
the result of which was the bursting
IF the hose about five inches back of
the coupling toward the hydrant,
proving that Jacks invention was all |
hat he claimed it to be and gave
ntire satisfaction to all who wit
lessed the test. Net a sign of Leaks
sc could be found from the coupling
uring the entire tr;ul.
This invention will be of great use
n large cities where rapid coupling
nd uncoupling is necessary.
1t does away with the old slow
crew coupling, and will enable fire
len to work much faster.
A single test will demonstrate its
reat utility
