THE FIRE MEMS PAY.
Action of the Board of Aldermen
Awaited With Interest,
Hosemen and Laddermen Want to Get as
Much as the Drivers and Tel Why.

The meeting of the city council Friday
night was of more than ordinary inter-
est to members of the fire department
and the deliberations of the board Of
aldermen Monday night will be watched
with even greater interest. The occasion
for the interest of the fremen in the
doings of the city fathers, is the consid-
Grafton of the salary bill Last Monday
night the board of aldermen passed the
salary bill as reported by the finance
committee, but the common council laid
1t ON the table. Friday night the council
men considered the bill and among other
items voted for an increase in pay for
ftremen, both permanent and call. The
revised salary bill will go before the
board of aldermen for concurrence
Monday might.
The question of firemen's nav has
been live topic for the past two
years and While the men have had some
friends in the city government they
have lacked a majority, and the best
they could get was a graded salary
which was $50 a month for the first wear
Of service, SOS for the second year and
SIS for the third year Drivers were fixed
al $40 for the first year and SIS there
after. The call men were raised to S295
but at the meeting Of the council This
salary was fixed at S275. The permanent

10, N, Y Mr.. Daniels is a Worcester
man, who has hardly been away long
enough to claim any other place as his
home. Although his career in his chos-
en- profession has been brief, his
achievements have been brilliant in the
extreme Mr. Daniels has a host OF
friends in the city sWho are watching his
splendid work at Buffalo with pride. An
abstract Of his contribution to the mag
azine will be of particular interest in
Worcester at this time, owing to the in
terest in art matters aroused by the
Public School Art League and the COM
ing opening of the new art museum.

Daniel who has but one aim-to teach
his pupils to draw, is indeed, unworthy
of the name teacher. The public schools

end culture studies were introduced into
the school curriculum. Literature and

f1remen have never been satisfied with
the salary paid them. They believe they
are as valuable to the city as the drivers,
who, at the end of the second year of
service, receive SIS a month. The APP
premiership of a fireman is in most
cases longer than that of drivers A per
manent fireman is appointed from the
ranks of the call men, and he has prob
ably been connected with the depart
ment for decade. Upon his appoint
ment he gets $50 month, while driver
who has seen no service in the depart
ment and probably has never driven
anything faster than an ice cart, gets
$40 for his first year of service.
The firemen believe too that their
duties are more arduous than those of
the drivers. All fire the driver remains
with his wagon, while the members of
the company battle with the fire. In
spite of this the drivers receive 81 a
months more for the second year of SER
vice than the fremen. The firemen are
obliged to put in another years service
before they receive the same salary as
the drivers. The permanent men contend
that there should not be this discrim-
ination between the workers and the
drivers The new salary list passed by
the couneilmen puts both firemen and
drivers on the same plane, and If it
should pass the board of aldermen there
would be no further complaint
Several of the f1remen did missionary
work among the board of aldermen Sat
urday, and enlightened them upon sew
eral points, which they believe the rul-
ers Of the city should know, The in
creased expense to the city by the
change would probably be not greater
than $4,000, and this amount the firemen
believe could be spared.

ON LEWIS ISLAND.
Gold Hunters From the Corona Exposed

Goid hunters From the Corona Exposed
to Storm.
San Francisco, Jan 29.-Further par
ticulars have been received of the wreck
of the Pacific coast steamship company s
steamer Corona, on a reef at the
southeast point of Lewis river, and 4SO
miles north Of Victoria, B. c., and OPP
posite the mouth of the Skeena river,
January %.
The Corona sailed from Seattle with
247 passengers for Juneau, Dyea and
Skaguay, Jan. 20. She carried a cargo
of 700 tons, together with ten horses and
SS dogs At 8 o'clock a. m, Jan 49, in
Arthur passage, the steamer crashed
upon the reef.
Most of the passengers were up, but a
scene of indescribable confusion fol-
lowed when the ships engines were re-
versed in an effort to get her off the
rocks. When she finally settled down,
the officers and crew succeeded in calm
ing the panic-stricken passengers, and
Capt. Pierce at once ordered the boats
lowered and the pumps to be worked.
As soon as it was ascertained that the
vessel was taking in water, Capt. Pierce
ordered the women and children into
the boats, and at 7 80 o'clock a. m the
first boat, in charge of Second officer
Marshall put off for the nearest land
Lewis Island. Seven boats were manned
and the passengers were all landed in
two trips without accident. The hand
baggage and that in the forward hold
were then transferred and the dogs and
horses saved Mattresses and blankets
from the cabin state rooms were also
landed for the accommodation OF the
shipwrecked passengers.
Later Capt. Pierce ordered Purser
Ballantine to take the mail ashore, and
at Las the captain ordered the rest OF
the crew ashore, and followed himself.
Twenty minutes later the steamer sank,
stern foremost, with her bow hanging
to the rock upon which she struck.
About 2.30 p. m. the tug Golden Gate
with a barge in tow, passed and an
swered the signal of distress, but the
sea being too heavy to admit of her
parting with her tow, she proceeded, and
returned next morning, when Captain
Pierce dispatched her to Mary Island
with the news of the wreck.
A severe storm which struck the camp
added to the sufferings of the haplesS pas
sengers huddled upon Lewis Island. The
storm continued until Wednesday morn
ing On Wednesday night the steamer
Danube was sighted, and answered the
signal fiared from the point. Capt. Pierce
boarded the Danube in canoe manned
by Siwashes from an adjacent island.
Upon her return he conveyed the news
that the steamers Aleki and Alder We're
close behind the Danube and would re-
lieve them. 1t was supposed that one OF
the two vessels would turn back to Fort
Wrangel with such passengers as desired
to proceed north, while the other would
bring the remainder to Seattle.

and musicians, but to educate toward
a love for the best in these two depart
ments. The course in drawing should
aim primarily to cultivate, refine and
elevate aesthetic ideals.
"A study of theories and facts will
never accomplish this end. We must do
more than teach drawing We must
make our course so broad that the beau
tiful creations of God and man will be
an eternal source of enjoyment. In a
well known high school, where drawing
is optional, the question was asked,
Why do you study drawing? One girl
wrote this: The chief reason l study
drawing is because l enjoy it so much

almost the same as recreation. 1t

mature drawing cultivates an appre-
citation of nature. Art appeals to our

We never fully enjoy that which we
