Bathgate Pink Paper: On Saturday
evening shortly before 5, Archie Cur

that much talked of gasoline lamp of
ours, which hung midway between.
two double news stands at which three
cOmpositors were at work. AS he
struck the match and applied it to the
first lamp the two quart gasoline tank,
which had just been filled, took fire
and in an instant flames leaped to the
ceiling. Archie sprang to the floor
and seized the only large wooden article
in sight, the EDITORS new overcoat, and
sprang up to the lamp again, saying:
"It's your new coat" Let it CO." we
said and he threw it over the reservoir
preventing the flames from reaching
the ceiling and attempted to smother
the flames by wrapping the coat around
it. He could close it at the top but
could not at the bottom, nor could we
get at it from below as a column of
burning gasoline was streaming to the
floor and v the cases. Not being
able to smother it or tear it from it's
hangings, he stepped down and gasp
ing the hanger by the bottom succeeded
by an upward movement in unlocking
it and letting it drop on the cases from
which place he dropped it to the center
of the floor, himself enveloped in
flames. A tube of fyricide was put on
it, water thrown on the woodwork that
had ignited, but still it seemed that the
fire could not be controlled. Charley
Perrau1t came at that juncture with a
tube of fresh fyricide and it's contents
partially subdued the flames from the
burning oil. All outside doors were

were filled with, a %suffocating smoke.

The crowd or the outside of the build
ing brought water in pals which was
handed to the workers, the doors being
opened only TO admit the water pals.

woodwork. was extinguished. and the
Incident was ended with a loss of a
couple of hundred dollars. What made
the fire sc serious was the explosive
nature of the gasoline. We would
not have attempted what Currie did to
save the office, nor wa it at all safe,
but he saved the Office and escaped
without injury to himself and clothing,

Common Australia asks what special
credit comes to the municipality from
aldermanic brawls. free fights and
bibulous picnics. One councillor alone
attempts defense OF the custom of
spending all this money for liquors
and cigars. He tells the public that
1T is great boon to harmony when
apparently irreconcilable differences
Of opinion have occurred at council
meeting for that body to adjourn to
the refreshment room and discuss mat
ters under the genial influences OF alco-
hol and havanas. By this means the
work of this great public body is ex-
pedited and the right side always
wins
Best of all. this innocent councillor
is not Joking. He actually thinks he
can make the people believe it. The
discord is proceeding and the council
ors are going home from civic meet
ings SO straight and SO early that their
own wives do not know what to make
of it.

1000 of them are church-goers. Less
than 10 per cent Of the 81 900 young
men of Brooklyn are church men while
in Boston fully 10000 young men never

Mayor Takes = Hand.
The new mayor of Perth. Henry
Rathbone, among other things. has
stepped on the toes of his henchman
over these ''3 per cents" and regul-
lar tempest has resulted, writes an
Australian. The sum available for
these purposes of refreshment amounts
to no less thatn $500 a year in Perth,
but that has never been sufficient to
pay for all the drinks Of the privileg-
ed and for the entertainment of dis
tinguished visitors Hence it has
been the custom always to elect men
to the mayors chair who would spend
freely and make up any little deficien-
cy to the tune of $1,000 or so.
This was supposed to be perfectly
safe matter in the hands of the new
BONANZA king" mayor, but he made
the discovery that his predecessor had
left sum Of considerable proportions
Of arrears on that account and that
the per cent was heavily overdrawn
When the council realized this they
thought to bring the new mayor to a
sense OF his privilege in paying for
their drinks by refusing to grant the
payment Of the refreshment expenses
Of the mayors "at home" until the ac-
count should be brought up to date.
The mayor. in retaliation. announced
that henceforth he would carry the
key to the refreshment room himself
and that any councillor wanting free
drink must come and ask for it.

Whoever observes these interesting
insects finds it easy enough to foretell
exactly the kind Of weather to be e1-
pected. At least this is the opinion Of
many raisers of bees.
Generally the bee stays :. home
when rain is in the air. When the sky
is simply dark and cloudy, these busy
workers do not leave their dwelling all
at once. A few go out first, as though
the queen had sent out messengers to
study the state of the atmosphere. The
greater number remain on observation
until the clouds begin to dissipate, and
il IS only then that the battalions en-
tire rush out in search of their nectar.
A bee never goes out in a fog, because
it is we'll aware that dampness and
cold are two fearsOme, redoubtable
enemies. We do not mean, however,
that the bee is meteorological in the
absolute sense of the word. Its clever
ness consists in never being taken I'M
awares, for it possesses untiring vigil
lance. Often one may observe the SUD
den entrance of bees into the hive
when a dense cloud hides the sun and
even though the rain is not ia evidence.

CHANGED Times.

Times have changed indeed from the
time when Sydney Smith complacently
observed that the United States had
so much wilderness clearing to do that
it might well take its literature, learn
ing and luxury in the bulk from Eng
lish factories.
"Why," he had asked, should the
Americans write books when six
weeks passage brings them, in their
own tongue, our sense. science and gen
ius in bales and hogsheads! Prairies,
steamboats,, gristmills, are their nat
ural objects for centuries to come"
We might almost reverse this and
ask, "Why should the English feel i'll
at ease when a six days passage brings
them our sense, science and genius:'
For the tine at least the Rev. Sgd
ney Smiths chief notoriety seems to
be that he was the author of certain
observations whose truthfulness has
proved as brief as 1t was bitter.-Har-
