BROOKLYN BRIEFS

-Honorius Lestage of Charles street died at the Waterbury hospital yester- day morning from the effects of injur- les received at B. H. Fry X Co.'S cast ing shop. on Porter street Saturday af- ternoon. He was cleaning furnace and threw some molten metal on wet sand which resulted in an explosion, riddling Lestage with the hot metal and burning him so badly that scarcely any of his clothes was left. The shock produced by the concussion was heard long ways off and brought many to the scene, among them Officer Brickel and Dr Russell. The man was given such attention as was possible after which he/ was removed to the hospital in Lunny's ambulance, where he lin gered until o'clock yesterday morn ing. He is survived by a widow and four children. The remains were re- moved to the family residence on Charles street by Moriarty x Callahan, who will send the body to Canada for burial on the 1928 train tomorrow.

FRENCH PREMIER's ESCAPE.

Anarchfst Shoots Twice at CSmbea
 without Result.
 MARSETLLES, Aug. 10,--As Premier Combes was returning to tho prefec- ture from banquet given by the Friendly Society of Teachers, at which M. Pelletan. minister of marine, and Henri Brisson, deputy for Marseiiies, and a number of senators and deputies were present, two pistol shots were fired at the carriage in which he was riding, The premier was untouched, and nene of these accompanying him was hurt,
 The attempt upon the life of the pres ident of the ministry caused great ex- citement, and the Q wd pointed out to the police as the author of the attempt a man dressed in fisherman's clothes. His companion drew knife, but the police quickly disarmed him. The po- lice had much difficulty in protecting the man who had fired the shots from the crowd.
 He struggled desperately, but was soon overcome, handcuffed and taken to the prefecture, where M. Combes had already arrived. The first interro- gation of the prisoner took place in the presence of the premier. The man said his name was Sanrairo Picolo. He spoke very bad French with a strong Italian accent.
 He denied that he had fired the shots, but when searched a revolver was found with two chambers which had been freshly fired. It is believed that Picolo and his companion, who had ef- fected his escape during the confusion, are both dangerous anarchists of Italy, the presence of a number of whom in Marseilles the police are aware.

Strike At Long Island City Caused

Strike At Long Island City Caused
 Many of Them to Walk.
 New York, Aug 1O.-Thousands of men, women and children who spent Sunday at nearby Long Island resorts had great difficulty in getting back to this city, owing to the strike on the New York & Queens County Electric Railway Co.'S lines running out of Long Island City.
 If the plans of the motormen and conductors had been carried out not a car wheel would have turned in that section, but only about one hundred men went out on strike at the behest of their leaders, and more than half the cars ran for a time. Nevertheless thousands had to walk to the ferries, and the entire police force, reserves and all, were ready to cope with a more serious situation.
 The trouble was said to be due to the suspension of four men last Wednes- day and the subsequent refusal of the railroad company to take them back. Later a demand was made for union recognition and a meeting was called. Only 100 men attended, but they decid- ed on inaugurating strike and called another meeting at which they expect to have better success in getting out the employees.
 The trolley line involved is part of the Queens county system recently purchased by a New York trust com pany for a syndicate whose members are still unknown. The deal involves many millions of dollars.

In my opinion however, it is not for the executive oi the state to meet conditions to whfcl he refers as much as it is for the peo pie themselves. Legislatures maj make laws, but their enforcement rest( aIuerWards with the people for whosf government they are made. Thert could be no reasonable complaint eitl1 CT of the executive or of the courts ir this state on the ground of non-enforce ment of law, for there have been eight executions for capital offense durins my administration, a record in that re, spect that has never been equalIed il the state.
 But it was not race problem al evansville after the negro. was re moved to Vincennes. The mob as saulted the state when it assaulted 1t, representatives as they existed in ths militia.

Clothes and Carpet Cleaning.

The cleaning of mems clothing
and carpets and rugs is simple
matter and easily accomplished by
the person who wants to save a
little money" Thomas Bequette,
a well-known cleaner, told me, and
demonstrated his assertions later
with practical examples. "In either
case it means only the application
of soap and water. A pair of
trousers that are very badly soiled
need only to be washed, just as one
would wash towel, hung up to dry
wrong side out and then pressed to
look as fresh as new. Soap aud
water is one of the secrets of good
cleaning and will never spoil a suit
of clothes, providing it has been
made from well shrunk goods
Sometimes it is not necessary to
clean the whole suit, and therefore
washing it in tub is not essential.
If the collar of the coat, for instance
is soiled, instead of using benzine
or some other preparation, merely
take soap and water and scrub the
collar with a stiff brush. 1t will
clean it and leave the goods un-
harmed, fresh and odorless. A
carpet may be cleaned on the floor
in much the same manner. A good
scrubbing brush, soap without too
much I've in it, and just sufficient
water to work up lather is all that
s necessary. Scrub the surface

With wet rag, so that the carpet

arpet dries out in a couple of hours

Do GOOd-It Paws.

A Chicago man has observed that,
"Good deeds are better than rea
estate deeds-some of the latter are
worthless. Act kindly and gently,
show sympathy and lend helping
hand. You cannot possibly lose by
it," Most men appreciate a kind
word and encouragement more than
substantial help. There are persons
in this community who might truth
fully say: my good friend, cheer
up. A few doses of Chamberlain

who have the party's welfare at
heart, the Johnson City Comet
wants to see democratic president

"Any man nominated by the demo-

include enough northern and west
ern states TO be elected president.

The Methodist Church.

The Boston Advertiser, in dis
cussion of the strength of the
Methodist Church in politics, makes
the following interesting observa-
tions: "From statistics carefully
compiled by local Methodists, it ap-
pears that more members of the
Methodist church have been elected
governors during the past five years
than any other denomination in the
history of the country. At the
present time there are no less than
eight States whose chief magistrates
are Methodists. The list as un-
officially compiled: Massachusetts,
Gov. Bates; Illinois, Gov. Yates;
Texas, Gov. Sayers; Indiana, Gov.
Durbin; Nebraska, Gov. Mickey;
Missouri, Gov. Dockery; Michigan,
Gov. Bliss; Minnesota, Gov. Van
SAINT. All but two of the Metho-
dist governors are Republicans, the
exceptions being in Texas and Mis-
souri,. The denomination which
ranks next to the Methodists in
gubernatorial laymen is the Presby-
terrain church, with seven, and the
Baptist, with six governors. The
strength of the Methodist church in
politics is not surprising, in view of
the number who follow this faith.
1t has long been the most numerous
Protestant body in the country, and
less than twenty five years ago was
the strongest of all denominations.
The late President Mckinley was a
devout Methodist, as was President
Grant"

THE Commercial Appeal, in an
article commencing the interest
taken in Memphis in the movement
to raise the Tennessee bdilding fund,
says: cit SO happens that Tennessee
possesses one of the three or four
historic homes that have a national
interest. The Hermitage was the
home of one O. our greatest Presi-
dents. There he lived for many
years, and there he died. 1t is a
large building, admirably suited, by
reason of its size and arrangement
for state building. 1t will be
absolutely unique among the state
buildings. 1t will be a splendid
advertisement for Tennessee, for it
happens that Virginia and Tennes-
see are the only states having these
notable old homes. 1t cannot be
said that the Hermitage reproduced
will be merely local advertisement
for it is not situated within the
limits of any city. 1t happens to
be in Middle Tennessee, but no one
ever thinks of it belonging exclusive
ly to that section. 1t is a state
building primarily, and it belongs
secondarily to the nation. The
Lropriety of reproducing it as the
Tennessee building is apparent to
ALL" II is true that the Hermitage |
is a heritage of the whole state,
and all Tennesseans should take |
pride in having the people of the
whole nation impressed with it's
historic importance. While Nash
vile is naturally and properly ex
pected to evince a ready interest in
having it reproduced at st. Louis as
a Tennessee building, and to take
the lead In the movement, there
should be hearty and substantial
response and support of the move
ment in all parts of Tennessee. -
