Barberton, July 15.-The question Of
fire protection came up at the Council
meeting Monday night, and was the
subject Of considerable discussion and
every member of the Council is in fa-
vor Of an improved service. Barber
ton has only volunteer fire depart
ment and such q service in city the
size Of Barberton can not but be mad
equate.
Said Mr.. Prentiss, chairman Of the
Fire committee: The other day,
when there was fire at the American
Sewer Pipe factory, the men were
almost exhausted when they reached
the hose house and were too much
out of breath even to ask where the
fire was. Such weather as this, by
the time the men run to the hose house
they are too much exhausted to do any
thing but sit and look at the cart
1t was the general sense of the
Council that a regular fire system be
adopted, and it was moved by Mr..
Morton that committee be appointed
to look over estimates and decide up
OH system that would not be too
expensive but would meet the present
requirements of the city. Mr. Prem
tiss had prepared and presented to the
Council five estimates of fire equip.
ments, including horses and buildings
which will cost from $4,000 to $4,000
1t was estimated that fire alarm
system of 10 boxes would cost about
$4,000.
Mr.. J. NJ. Royston the fire chief
| was present and asked for an improve.
ment in the system and suggested that
when a fire system was adopted II
be silent one. THE less noise there
is about fire the better" said lie.
Mr.. w. S. Mitchell was also present
and suggested that before any actor
was taken to provide fire system the
| water supply be looked after. The
matter was referred to the Street com
nittee which will report to the Council
at an early date.

MADHOG
Attacked and Terribly Injured
Prominent Man.

Trenton, n. j., July 16.-As the result
of fierce battle with giant hog, Ed
ward Austin, president of the Austin
Lumber company, is laid up at his
home in Windsor township, near this
city.
The hog made dash for a truck
patch some yards away. Mr.. Austin
undertook to head off the porker. The
hog seized Mr.. Austin by the leg and
threw him to the ground, and pro-
ceeded to sink it's teeth into his arms
and legs in many places.
Austin's cries for help brought the
farm laborers to the scene, and they
dubbed the maddened hog until 1t fell
in its tracks. The physicians announce
that Mr.. Austin will be laid up for
many weeks.

CHINAMEN AT THE PHONE,
Speaking in Their Own Tongue Saves
Them Much Money.
FrOm the Rock, .1uuntain News. }

(From the Rocks .uuuntain News)
"A Chinaman at the telephone is
a funny thing, remarked long
distance telephone operator a few
Gays ago. You see it is imposSi-
bic to tell whether one person or
half dozen are talkingand we often
become mixed up in listening to
them. When Que is speaking it
seems as if half dozen people are
talking and we often imagine the
wires are out OF order. To make
matters worse the Chinese delight
IN talking as fast as possible. and
we never know whether the China
man at this eud OF the wire is talk
ING or if it is one at the other end.
After the conversation is ended the
cnlnk walks out OF the booth with a
self-satlstied smile on his face. and
pays for a three-minute talk. We
have lately discovered that be in
variablv says as much during tnat
time as could have been said bv a
white man In Is minutes
To be sure the telephone company
is not out anything by the trans
action as it is paid by the minute,
but nevertheless in the case OF the
Chinaman the company would be
the gamer oy charging for volume
instead of time. 4 Chinaman al
ways begins his talk in pigeon Eng
lish: he says: Hello. IS this Sam
Liug? l bette you don't know-yi
hi vi he yahbo oeene ne and so
ou. and it sounds on the wires as If
several persons were at work.
The Redwood gazette., 1902-12-03

An amusing incident occurred in
the Denver Office of the company
last week. The long distance oper-
ator at Colorado Springs called Den
yer over the wire and informed the
Office that another wire was out OF
order. An investigation resulted
in a report being made to the effect
that the wire was crossed with
dozen others and that it was impOs-
sible to use it until the trouble could
be located. An inspector asserted
that he believed the wire was
crossed with one connecting with
the tower of Babel, and the ''hello
girls up stairs we're ready to
agree with him when a Chinaman
walked out of the booth, glared
around the room for a minute and
then said:
Me notte pay when big fool mon
key with me and call me names alice
samee me notte know any bettee
Me wantee talk to Sam Lee, Trini-
dad not Mclean mans and gals in
Denver.
And the mystery was explained.
What had been mistaken for a
crossed wire was only two China
men. one in Denver and one in Trim
idad. each one trying to get his
money S worth of conversation at
so much per minute The Mongoli-
and received an apology and was
once more allowed to enter the
! booth, where he talked to a friend,
Sam Lee in Trinidad. Sam Lee was
agent for the Six Companies of Sar
Francisco, and furnishes laundry.
men and merchandise for Chinamer
all over the United States. He
averages five talks to Denver each
week, and were his conversation
carried on IN English his business
would be very profitable for the
telephone company. Sam, however
is too wise to talk English when ht
has to pay, and cOnverses in the
language of the Flowery Kingdom
In this manner he saves grea
deal OF money.
