The Passing Of the Fire
Engine.

At convention of the lnterna.
tional Association of Fire Chiefs,
held in New York City, the chief
of the Baltimere Fire Department
read a paper on the fire depart
ments of the future in the
large cities. The paper started a
discussion on the merits of mobile
fire engines as COMPARED with sta
tionary pumping plants, stand pipes
and sprinkler systems. The Chief
of the Chicago Fire Department
declared that ninety-two steam en-.
gines in Chicago could be dispensed
with if twelve pumping stations
were at hand. A representative
from Boston gave II as his op,rion
that the cIang Of the engine
'hrouy h the cities streets will soon
lie as out Of date a, the old va,np
brake pump.

bring II TO the dragon forest, so that
can use it in the morning That's all"
Well. that's easy enough said Roc.
and away he flew. He got back IN about
an hour. and said the dynamite shed WAS
at the woods waiting SO Howard went 10
bed
Early in the morning. just before sun
rise Howard arose and hurried 10 the
forest, where he found the little shed be-
meath big tree. He quickly carried six
or seven barrels OF the dynamite into
the woods, and placed them in the middle
Of The road, or track. made by the mon
ster when he came forth to eat people.
Then he began TO yell and shout as loud as
he could. and in a few minutes the dragon
came roaring through the forest, wild
with rage at being disturbed 50 early.
Howard ran with all his speed in order 10
get a good, safe distance away. When
The enraged dragon came to the barrels
Of dynamite IN his path he blew out a
tremendous breath OF flame, as vas his
habit, blew It right at the barrels, and
the next instant there was a terrible
bang. The noise was so great that Il top
pied Howard over on his back, but he
got Up In time TO see that the dragon had
been blown to pieces. and that the bits
were coming down out Of the sky in
shower. There was a great hole in the
ground where the monster had stood, and
that was all Away up in the air he saw
the Roc looking very much astonished.

BlezD Up the Dragon

you don't really mean that there is a
dragon, a genuine dragon, hereI' cried
Howard in some alarm.
There certainly Is. and he's fierce" re-
piled Catsuppo.
Then Howard thought Of the Roc and
was relieved instantly, for he saw a way
TO do Up the dragon. After lunch he told
the Prince that he would Ike to walk in
the garden and think out plan Of attack.
but the Prince, in great alarm, said that
was impossible, for the garden was solely
for the use Of the beautiful Princess Her
mione, and not another soul, with the ex-
ception of the Prime Minister, was ever
allowed in there. OF course, that appar-
emily made Howard more anxious than
ever to see the Princess. but really he
only wanted 70 get OF somewhere by him
self so that he could call up the Roc.
Catsuppo suggested that he might 90 I'D

reflection Howard decided that Il would
be better. But he concluded to wait until
night came in order that no one would
witness the arrival Of the bird. Mean
while. with tbs Prince as guide, he ex-
plored the neighborhood, and went even

He went back to the castle and told tho
Prime Minister that the dragon was dead
but Cuttyhugger said ne must see its head
before he would believe 1t. OF course
Howard couldn't produce the head, for it
was blown 20 pieces. and when he de-
manded that the Princess be given TO
him the Minister only laughed. But all
the same IN his heart lac was very much
afraid Of a boy who could make such a
noise as he had heard that morning.. He
told Howard that he must perform an
other task before he could have the
Princess. and. taking him 10 a building
back Of the castle, showed him many bags
OF corn and a haud-mill not much larger
than a big coffee grinder. saying;
You must grind all that corn into meal
before tomorrow morning"
That's easy" said Howard "Iu Just
take little nap first"
The Prime Minister went away a good
deal worried, but he thought. after all,
that II would be impossible for any one
TO grind all that corn with a hand-mH
within two weeks Howard called the
Roc and asked him 70 take the bags To a
