FIRE ALARM BOXES,
The System In New York md How Il
IL Operated.

The System In New York and How Il
In Operated.
Greater New York Is thickly studded
with lamppost fire alarm boxes. The
directions on each box, which is paint
ed red and is surmounted ut night by a
red light, are:
"Turn handle to right until door
opens; then pull inside hook once and
shut the door," The opening of the
box rings large bell In the door,
which alarm is intended to notify any
one in the neighborhood, especially the
nearest policeman, that the box has
been opened. The policeman will then
make sure that this was not done out
OF mischief by some one who wanted to
see the engines arrive or, Us recently
happened. by a raw maidscrvant who
wanted to mail letter. When the in
side lever Is pulled down and let 60, it
sets in motion certain clockwork that
ticks out the number Of the box three
times In succession ut headquarters in
Slxty-seventh street. Not only that,
but 1t makes record upon a tape,
showing the number of the box and the
exact second at which the lever was
pulled.
A clerk who sits night and day be-
side the headquarters instrument notes
the number and selects from a drawer
a certain disk which when inserted in
the proper apparatus causes the alarm
to be rung In the station houses Of the
district In which that firebox Is situat-
ed. The average time required to Sc
lcct this disk and send out the alarm Is
ten seconds. There are always two
clerks and sometimes three in this de-
partmcnt. Not n word is spoken. An
outsider would hardly know that an
alarm Is going out. In order to prevent
several alarms coming at the same
time from people who see the same fire
and run to different boxes no two
neighborlng boxes are on the same cir.

A MANS BLUSHES.
He Will Fly che Red Signal Moro
Quickly Than n Woman.

He Will Fly Shc Red Signal Moro
Quickly Than n Woman.
IF there is any one thing that makes
me want to get up and talk right out
m meeting 1t is to hear it said of n
man that he bushes like a woman"
said the social philosopher to a repre-
sentative of the New York Times.
How women ever gained the repu-
tation Of having run up corner in
bushes is beyond my comprehension.
The report does her q grave injustice,
for as a matter Of fact she not only has
no monopoly in bushes, but does not
make use of the share that properly
belongs to her. There are some wo-
men, OF course, who blush If you even
blink an eyelid In their direction, but
as general thing men blush much
more readily and more violently than
women.
This is not q random statement that
am making for the purpose of hear
Ing myself talk, but sober deduction
founded on careful observation. For
years have made it point to study
the sexes In moments of embarrass-
ment, and the statistics 1 have jotted
down prove that In nine cases out Of
ten the average man will fly the red
signal of distress much more quickly
than the average woman. This holds
good In all sorts Of situations.
Crack joke Mt a mans expense,
he blushes; ply him vI-h awkward
questions, he bushes; subject him to
some humiliation or let some ludicrous
accident befall him in public, and he
straightway rivals the boiled lobster
in hue. A woman may redden slightly
under the same circumstances, but her
blush Is diluted and perfunctory COM
pared with the brilliant. sunlit glow
that suffuses the countenance of man.
II don't attempt to explain the phe-
nomenon-physiologis and moralists
may do that IL they can-but merely
give the facts for what they are worth
in the hope that the next time a story
writer has crop Of bushes to dispose
of he will ring n few changes on the
old phrase that has done duty for gem
erations and say of the heroine that
she 'blushed like a man."
