ST. DoMINIC's FIRE SCARE.
Slight Blaze in the Second story of
the Parsonage.

Puffs of smoke issuing from the second
story windows of st. Dominc's Catholic
Church parsonage, corner of Sixth and II
streets southwest, about 1880 O'Clock
this afternoon, caused considerable excite
Inent in the neighborhood. A citizen rushed
into the Fourth precinct station, hall
blocked away, and shouted: st. Dominic's
on fire
A local alarm was sent in, and No.
engine company reported on run. The
firemen found one of the rear rooms on
the second story of the passage in light
blaze. The flames were extinguished
after about $50 damage had resulted to
the pretty and lofty memorial windows.
The fire was caused by the explosion of
a gasoline stove which had become over
heated The room was deserted at the
time of the explosion. Several years ago
st. Dominic's was almost destroyed by
conflagration, and later n demented woman
tried to burn the structure by pouring kerev
sene on the floor and iSnitingit.

CIVIC
CENTER AT
WORK.

HAS IL CDH,eiitth itncii
with a merely abstract contemplation Of
the sam. but some of its jealous members
have made personal Investigations ON lines
similar to those recently followed by The
Times 1t was to be expected, therefore,
that the conclusions arrived at would be
virtually identical, and in whatever the
Civic Center may undertake to give form
and force to the results OF its investigation
it will certainly have the cordial co-opera-
ton of this paper.
In dealing with this matter a very Sc
rious consideration presents itself at the
very start. The population of the alleys
consists mostly of the poor. Theylive there,
huddled and crowded together, because
rents are cheap and they cannot afford to
pay more. To prohibit the use OF the al
!eys for dwelling purposes would result,
therefore, in the expulsion of thousands
of persons who might be unable to find
homes the rent of which would come with
in their means. Before the destruction of
alley dwellings could be undertaken it
would be necessary to go into tenement
building on a large scale, using for this
purpose sections of the city where ground
is not expensive. This phase of the sub
1ect, ho wever, may be left to future consid-
Grafton.
For the present it is necessary to reform
the alleys as they are; to make them less
of breeders OF crime and disease. As has
been heretofore pointed out by The Times,
to do this 1t will be necessary to prohibit
the occupancy Of alley dwellings in the
vicinity of stables and outhouses; TO pave
the alleys, as rapidly as circumstances will
permit. with some kind of smooth surface;
to provide for a stream of running water
through each alley and for an ample supply
of water for washing and cooking purposes;
to order the demolition of all alley dwell
ings in q dilapidatcd condition and the re-
building of such as are surrounded by, or
in contiguty to, stables; to insist upon all
dwellings to be kept in sanitary condi-
ton and insure this by frequent inspcc-
ton, and, finally, to counteract, as far
as may be done, the Gro wding OF humanity
into Inadequate tenemcnts.
Reforms like these viii tend to greater
cleanliness among the denizens of the al
leys. This once accomplished. the moral
reformation will be less troublesome
achievement

INSPECTION
OF

sutH stS IL nut Shhf
tarily pure Although stringent regulations
have been adopted heretofore with view
TO stopping the sale or adultcratcd milk, or
or milk from daires that are not Kept in
proper condition. or that OF unhealthy
cows, yet 1t seems that the purpose Of the
lealth department has not yet been fully
accomplished, because 1t is still possible
Tor the unscrupuIous dairynan To cIrcum-
vent the rules made for his government.
because OF these facts, the bill sent to
Congress yesterday by the Commissioners
S a proper measure as Will be any other
that aims at the protection OF the public
without being unduly oppressive to the
dalrymen or other dealers in milk. The
fact that cows Condemned on one dairy
farm are sold and make their appearance
on another proves that more stringent regu
iations are necessary. Whether or not the
tagging or cows Will furnish the protection
AIMED at remains to be seen. Perhaps it
would prove n more efficient safeguard If
condemned cows were branded. tag
can be removed; the mark OF the branding
IRON is fixed. on this point, however, the
health officer has probably gone a 5 far
as is practicable
1t is entirely proper TO insist upon the
annual reissue or dairy permits, because
this will enable the authorities to exercise
a much better control over the dairymen.
Nor would 1t hurt to subject grocery stores
and other places where milk is sold to
closer scrutiny, Tor 1T is much to be feared
that in not rev of these adulteration is
practiced. There is much more involved
IN this question OF milk inspection than
appears on the surface. 1t concerns the
health OF adults. but is of even more impor-
tance to the children.
