PRIVATE FIRE ALARM.
Mr.. Speicher Suggests a
Method of Rousing Sieepers
in Burning Buildings.

The official business of the present
Board of Fire Commissioners was COM
pleted last night. President John Bren-
nan, who has served the interests of the
people so faithfully, will step out Satur-
day night and the Board will meet at
40 o'clock Monday evening merely to
approve of the minutes
Immediately after the minutes lave
been approved the new Board will organ
ize. COMMISSIONS John Erickson VIII, no
doubt, occupy the chair for the ensuing
year.
At last nights meeting the only business
transacted was the reading of the reports
of the various officers and the passing Of
a number of claims. Chief Conway re-
ported that during the past week there
were eleven alarms of fire, six of which
were received over the telegraph system.
Telegraph Superintendent John speicher.
in a lengthy report, recommended the
adjustment of the bell alarm sounded
nightly at nine o'clock. He includes the
following communication in the reports
april 10. 1899.
''To the Board of Fire Comm. ssioners:-
"Gentlemen-The condition of the bel
tower circuit is such that it is impossible
to keep the same in proper working order.
The circuit is composed solely OF iron Wire
and is very old and badly rusted. l would
recommend that the nine o'clock blow be
discontinued, or the old wire. be repaired
with new.
Respectfully,
JOHN SPEICHER,
Superintendent
The Commissioners finding that the
amount of money appropriated for Su-
perintendent Speicher's department, not
sufficient to make the necessary repairs,
lost no time in passing a resolution order
ing the alarm to be discontinued.
After the meeting had adjourned, Super
~Speicher, in talking of the adj
vantages of electric bells in fiat houses
and tenements, said:-
Electric bells, if of a suitable size,
would prove very effective in case Of
fire, if properly placed. Occupants OF
larger houses, with but little expense,
provide themselves with an alarm
which would certainly prevent loss of life.
The button, which would ring every bell
in the house, could be placed at a point
of reach of small boys and mischiey-
ously inclined young men," Mr.. Speicher
said he had serious thoughts of making a
recommendation to this effect to the new
Board after it has organized.

SEVENTY LIVES LOST
From Wrecked Steamer Car
rying 1S5 Easter Excursionists
Down in 10 Minutes.

Southampton, March 81. The
passenger steamer Stella, ply inc
between this port and Channel
Islands, crashed upon the Dead
CaSquet rock near the island of
AlderneY yesterday afternoon in
Il dense fog and foundered in ten
minutes, her boiler exploding
with thunderous report as she
went down. But in spite of this
there WAS no panic on board.
The coaSting steamer Lynn,
which brought the news of the
disaster here, picked up four
boats and forty persons belong
ing to the Stella.
The second officer of the Stella.
who was among those rescued,
says that the collapsed boat was
launched full of people. He thinks
she struck on the rocks owing to
a fog.
Another steamer has picked up
a boat containing 55 persons. in .
cIudlng 20 women who escaped
from the wrecked steamer. They
have been landed here
The Stella had on board 1S5
passengers, who were going to
spend their Easter on Channel
islands.
The latest estimates today are
that 20 were lost.

A Smart Young Trader.

There was once a worthy Pres
byterian minister, who, while sit
ting in his study, was interrupted
by a small boy who had by some
way or other gained admission,
to sell the good man some young
p Ips.
II don't want any dogs, my
boy said the divine.
"But they are Presbyterian
pups,' persisted the youngster.
The old gentlman, however,
would not have them and the dis
appointed boy withdrew.
Some days afterward while
visiting friend who was Uni
versalist, the minister was aston
ished to see the same boy come in
and offer to sell his friend some
pups.
"Good Universallot pups,n
said the chap.
This was too much for the
Dominic, who said TO the boy:
care you not the same boy
that tried to sell me these pups
the other day."

"And did you not tell me then
that they were Presbyterian

"Then how can they be Uni

"Because they have had their
eyes opened since then,' said the
little chap. 1t is needless to add
that he sold the pups.

Whereas, We have observed
that the seasons come and 60 with
out any special reference to our
individuality, and that the rains
fall upon the just and unjust, and
in spite of our protests that trusts
have been formed to control tho
prices and output of everything
under the sun, from pig~lron to
chewing gum; therefore, be it
Resolved 1. That for this year
we allow the government to be
administered by the duly elected
and sworn officers.
3. That we will produce the
largest crops possible on ouI farms
at Il minimum cost, and sell them
for the highest prices Obtainable.
3. That we will vote according

consciences.
