A FLAG FOR THE FIREMEN
New Feature of the ANIMAL Review
Of City Departments.
Silken Banner to Be Awarded the
Company Maintaining the Highest
Efficiency - Additional Prizes for
the Police The Arrangements
for Thursday Afternoons Parade.

Unusual interest is taken this year in
ments. which is scheduled to take place
Thursday, the 18th instant, owing to the
increased number OF prizes for which the
various organizations and individuals have
been competing and the fact that these
prizes will be awarded on the day of the
parade. When John B. Wight was the
District Commissioner in charge of the
Police and Fire Departments he presented
a flag to the Police Department. 1t is
handsome American silk standard and he
stipulated that it should each year be
awarded to the precinct the men of which
should be found to be the best drilled.
For the past year the flag has been held
by the First precinct, ON Twelfth Street,
and the men at that station have been
straining every nerve to retain possession
Of the trophy.
When Commissioner Henry B. F. Mac
farland succeeded Mr.. Wight as Commits
sioner he decided to supply the Fire De-
partment with a similar incentive to ex-
eel He accordingly had made a flag of
similar design which will be presented TO
the department on thursday. 1t was MS
desire, however, that the flag should be
awarded to the company that maintained
the highest efficiency and not to the one
that on special occasions should present
an immaculate appearance.
He, therefore, quietly appointed COM
mittee, consisting of commissioner
Wight. ex-Commissioner John W. Doug
las, who also at the time he was Commits
sioner had charge of these branches of
the District government. and Mr.. Meyer
Cohen, the President of the Fire Under
writer's Association, 10 decide upon the
award of the trophy These gentlemen
gladly undertook the mission and last
Wednesday commenced the round of the
fire houses. Indictment weather interfered
with their work and the inspection was
not completed until Friday.
The committee did not make known
their purpose in visiting the houses ana
none of the companies had any opportuni-
ty to prepare for inspection. The COM
mittee is further to note the general ell
ficiency of the companies and compare
their records during the past year. They
have not vet arrived at a conclusion in
he matter but il is understood that the
announcement OF the winning company
will be made on Monday.
On the day CT the parade the prizes Of

BANDIT DGFIES AN ARMY
Italian Authorities Trying to Cap
ture MUSSolinO.
Force of Thousand Soldiers. Re-
sides Hundreds of GcndNrmcs.
Ransacking Cnlnbria-sfrnid to Az
cend Mount AsspromOntc - The
nriEand at Large Making Threats.

LONDON, Nov. 10.-The doings of the
brigand, Mussolino, are now attracting
attention throughout the whole OF Europe
thanks to the extraordinary fashion in
which the Italian authorities are pro-
ceeding to work. Something like thou
sand soldiers are CHARTERED in the dis
trict, in addition to hundreds of gen.
darmes and police, and full general is
in command of the operations.
The effect Of all this has been to in
crease popular sympathy for the brigand
and render even more difficult the task
OF laying him by the heels. The soldiers
and police are maltreating the inhabi-
tants of Reggie Calabria as accomplices
of Mussolino, and are maltreating men N
an abominable manner. Honest peasants
and farmers have been arrested by whol.-
sale and shot at sight whenever there is
the slightest resistance and even protest
offered In the mean time the main force
is besieging the summit of Mount Asspro-
monte, under the delusion that Musso-
limo is hiding there.
officers say that it is impossible to
carry the place by assault, which means
that they know their men have not the
courage to get to close quarters with the
brigand There are the best reasons for
believing that Mussolino is still freely
roaming the country. 1t is certain at any
rate that. at the beginning of the week,
when he was supposed to be at Mount
Assprcmcnte. he entered the town of
Scilla in open day. disguised as a gen.
darme pcrtook of refreshments at ca
there, and wrote number OF letters.
which he afterward posted. Two were
addressed TO the newspapers. "Gazzetta
de Messina'' and la Calabria, and the
third to the project Of Reggie.
In them Mussolino challenges all the
world to capture him. and warns the pre-
feet that, in the unlikely event of his
capture. the entire province will rise in
rebellion and rescue him. He takes en-
ceptioa to the tone of certain articles in
the newspapers mentioned, and promises
&c send contributions of his own. He has
also addressed a warning to the general
commanding the troops TO the effect that.
if the officers value their lives. they had
better refuse to do paltry police duties
and clear out.
