BOMBS AT FIRES.
A Suggestion by Mr.. ]. A. Winburn
in the Fire Service Review.


The Fire Service Review for April,
published in New York CITY, contains a
suggestion from Mr. John A. Winburn,
of Savannah, with regard to the use of
bombs at fires. His idea is that some
thing is needed to clear the way. so that
a stream of water can be put upon the
portion of a burning building which
really needs 1t.
He believes that good deal of property,
and often human lives, could be saved by
some such device. His idea with regard
to the use of explosives at fire. while
not a new one in this respect, is put in a
new form He says bombs of different
strengths should be kept at safe and con-
venient places where they would be likely
to be needed. Frequently instances of
fires are seen where by properly knock
ing a hole through brick wall much
property could be saved. 1t is for use in
such cases that the bombs, he thinks,
should be kept. The plan, he says. is
new one, and has the merit both of cheap
ness and safety, and he thinks the in
surance companies would strongly advo-
cate the idea if properly carried out.
The Review comments editorially upon
MIR. Winburn's suggestion and states that
the use of explosives at fires has been
tried often in one way and another and
has almost always proved ethcacious.
The greatest drawback, it says, is the
Discrimination to pay for property de-
stroyed in this manner, and while the
plan contemplates the saving Of property
the insurance companies have often taken
advantage of the literal construction of
their policies and paid losses only where
the destruction was by fire or water. II
this could be obviated. the Review says,
there is little doubt but that the use Of
explosives at fires would become popular.

PIANOS.
$4,000 EACH.
PRICES TO SUIT THE TINES.

No Joking about 1t. Read the following
from the American Art Journal OF New York:
The Art Journal last week published a
oeal full full page illustration OF the famous
grand piano supplied to Henry c.. MarQuand
Tor which no less sum than $4,000 was paid
Inc instrument was made by Steinway and
sent TO London. where its entire exposed sur
lace, inside and out, was decorated by Alma
Iadema with appropriate and emblematic
designs. This piano was afterward exhtbi, ed
IN London at the Grosvenor Art Gallery and
many thousands viewed Its magnificent
paintings"
A big price for piano. BUT it was a
SIElNWAY. and, no matter what the price,
II was worth IT,
Not so many $500 STEINWAYS sold in
savannah this year, but plenty at more mod
crate figures.
1925 buys lovely Upright Steinway, and
me larger styles in fancy cases from 5000 to
81 600
Prices but little higher than those OF many
pianos not actually worth half as much.

Thirty Barrels of Gasolene BIg
 Blaze In south Norwalk.
 SOUTH NoRwALK, June l3-At3 o'clock this morning serious fire was caused in the Consolidated railroad yards at this place by the partial wreck of freight car containing thirty or more barrels of gas olene. At this hour an extra freight, east bound, reached this point. In the train was box car containing the gasolene. The car was uncoupled and punted on to siding for unloading. In some inexplic- able way the rest of the train followed and flat car was driveninto the gasolene stored car. There was quite a wreck and Car Inspector John Me Laughlin, of thls city. was upon the scene in a short time and not knowing the contents of the box car. entered with lighted torch. With him were three brakeman. In a very short space of time the gasolene which was loose in the car was ablaze and the men were rescued with difficulty. All were more or | less scorched The car was tctally de- stroyed A few of the barrels which had not been broken by the wreck were re- moved The flat car coliding was con- stunned, together with a fagman's house near by. At one time the passenger sta ton was in danger. The water from the engine companies flowed along the tracks in rivulets. The escaping gasolene fol- lowed the water on top and the firemen had great difficulty in eNtinguishing It. | The blame for the accident has not been | placed. The engineer of the freight has not yet been examined. but it Is thought that the fault lies with him or some of the freight's crew for allowing the main freight to run back upon the detached car.

BRENN MA TALKS.
The Italian Interpreter is Apparently Sane and Denies the Stories Published About Him.

The Italian Interpreter is Apparently
 Sane and Denies the Stories Published
 About Him.
 Enea Brenna, ex-detective and Italian interpreter, sent for a representative of the DEMOCRAT to-day and when called upon showed no signs of insanity. He was found in bed at the boarding house of Mrs Thomas Deschamp, 324 South Main street. He is quite i'll, having had another severe hemorrhage yesterday from his old wound in the side. He said that he had no hard feelings against those who, he claims, have maligned him. He also con- tradicted several published statements. He did call at Detective Egan's house one night he said, to have the latter go with him to house on Jackson street. The detective told him he could not go as he had too much business to attend to the next day. He did disguise himself and try to find the murderer, but he did so be- cause he supposed the Waterbury police had given up the search. He denied in toto all rambling stories published about him and insisted that he never deserved the "throw down" he received from Detec- tive Egan and the chief of police. Regard garding the story that he interpreted wrongly, he affirms it is a falsehood and the woman who they claim he misrepre- sented can prove what he says. The old man did not wander in his conversation, but told his story without trace of ex- citement. He is good citizen, he claims, but much of what he said has been dis torted and misrepresented. Mrs Des- champ says he is more sane than those who talk about him. The only time he showed any excitement was when he heard of the stories which were circulated about him. Dr Werner. his physician, says the man is erfectly sane.:

STOCKED STREAMS.
State Furnishes Fry and Doesn't Give tn
 Public the Right to Fish.


 Public the Right to Fish.
 The question whether streams stocked with fry by the fish commission are open to the public for the purposes of fishing. has been freely discussed of late by fisher men all over the state. The claim is made that the streams are stocked at public ex- pense and ought, therefore, to be open to the public.
 Game Warden A. c. Collins said yester- day to reporter that the question was being agitated considerably and he was of the opinion that it was an open one. The state has paid out nearly $40, 900 in the past ten years for stocking streams and three-quarters of the fry has gone into posted streams. He thought if the owners of these streams were given the right to prohibit fishing in them, they should at least pay for the fry put into them.
 In making m inquiry of leading law yer, who Is also an expert fisherman, the reporters attention was called to a deci- sion bearing upon the point in question. The supreme court in the Fairfield county case of the state vs Turner, in 60th Conn, page 222. said the lawyer, seems to have decided the question. George H. Turner Ill 1S90-91 was fined 5 for entering uron and fishing on the enclosed land of another without the owners permission. He ap- pealed to the supreme court and claimed in defense. among other things, tbat the stream having been stocked by the fish com mission of the state, was open to the pub lie for the purpose of fishing. The evi- dence on this point was excluded in the lower court, and the supreme court held that it was properly excluded. It was all immaterial, the court held. It did not prove or disprove any material fact. Il did not prove or tend to prove that the de- fendant did not enter the enclosed land ot another for the purpose of fishing without having the consent of the owner. The de cision of the lower court was affirmed.

 So far the Pittsburg club officials. who insisted last winter that Stenzel would de- velop into as good a man as Van Haltren, and probably better. are right. Lately Stenzel has been very great improvement on Van Haltren in all respects.
