FISHERMEN WARNED OFF.
Action of Canadian Revenue officials
OF British Columbia.

TACOMA. Wash. April 16.-W. N. La
zier, one Of the owners of the American
steamer Edith. which fshed OF the North
Pacific halfbat banks during the winter,
says the officers Of the Canadian revenue
cutter Quadra warned the vessel not to
fish off the coast of British Columbia, un-
der penalty of seizure. although she was
several miles beyond the three-mile limit.
Lazier says that other American fishing
vessels have also been warned. He claims
to have reported the matter to the United
States authorities and Is waiting adyices
He hesitates. under the conditions, to send
the vessel to the banks.
The greater part Of the Edith's catch
was shipped from Tacoma to New York
and Boston. The vessel might be sent out
from British Columbia ports under the
British flag, but the duty charged by the
United States on halibut caught by British
vessel would make the business of catering
to- the American trade Improbable.

OFFICER Laid 0Uq|
Patrolman' Hanrahan Was
Rendered Unconscious.
DastardIy Assault Committed on
a Central Falls Officer.
Unknown Man Hurled Jagged Rock and the
Officers Head Was the Target.

Officer James Hanrahan OF the Central
Falls police department Is confined to the
house today from cowardly assault made
upon him at an early hour this morning
by two unknown men. The result of the
assault has left the officers face in fright
ful condition. The left side of the fore
head Is bruised, the left eye is black and
blue, the discoloration extends over the
nose and lips and the whole side OF the
face IL swollen.
When reporter visited the home of the
officer today he told the following story !:
He said he was sitting on Bakers steps, at
the corner OF Central and Dexter streets
about O'Clock this morning, and noticed
two young men coming down Central
street, but paid no particular attention to
them at the time.
The young men turned into Dexter
street, and when directly opposite him
one OF them hurled large jagged rock at
him. The rock went true to its mission
and struck him on the left side of the face.
Omcer Hanrahan said that the blow of the
rock completely knocked him out, and 1t
was some little time before he came to.
When he had recovered and look around
for his assailants they had flown. He i'm
medistely went to the Office of DIR. Nc
Nally and had the wound dressed.
In speaking of the assault Officer Hanra-
han said that he could not account for It,
unless they were some men against whom
ne had testified In the courts at some time

SAFETY VS.. DANGER.

Comfort, Economy and Insurance Accom-
pany the Use OF Gas Stoves.
''The accident column of any newspaper
looked at compels the question, why use
gasoline, oil.or other dangerous substitutes
for gas stoves when gas IL safer, better and
cheaper? The true value of gas az fuel
for domestic purposes cannot be overesti-
mated. A gas stove is always ready. II
takes but match to start It and as soon al
lighted It Is prepared for work. Its fire IL
at its hottest Instantly, and the moment
that you are through using the consump-
tion Of fuel stops. Never leave a burner
lighted because you are going to use 1t
soon, turn 1t out-matches are cheaper
than gas"
The Pawtucket Gas Company says this
and common sense appears to support its
every statement. The dangerous gasoline
and oil stoves furnish horrors every sum-
mer day and the stories told by the press
are frequent in number as they are har-
rowing in detail. A risk of life and prop
erty cannot be called economy. The work
OF introducing gas cooking to the public
was one of effort, owing to the popular
fallacy that its use is accompanied by
great expense, and that the vivands SO
cooked are tainted by gas. These delu-
sions are quickly dispelled. Gas for cook
ing recommends itself because il is con-
venient, clean and economical; there is no
dust, no SCOT, no ashes, no smoke, no
waste heat, and absolutely no danger.
These are facts worth considering and to
them the Pawtucket Gas Company will
add many more. Visit the warerooms at
No. 156 Main street and you will learn
much even IL you do not purchase now.
Study gas stove as you would any other
thing SO much discussed, and it will be
found to provide results causing happier
women because they Will become better
cooks, and better men because their food
will make them happier.
