The Man with the Hose.
New York World.


Superintendent Harrison, of the Lafays.
cite IndD county jail, is not exactly one OF
those public benefactors who has made two
ears OF corn grow where only one grew be-
fore. Nevertheless. he is the parent OF an
Idea that. IL IL works out as we'll as il
promises. should give him a place among
those who deserve well of mankind"
In furtherance of this idea the Lafayette
county jail Is now being equipped with q
new and formidable standpipe Of copious
water-t throwing capacity Ii is being so
erected TO command both the front and
rear entrances. IL will throw a stream with
such force to easily knock down whom
soever is within range. If played upon an
advancing mob IL is Superintendent Harri-
sons firm belief that IL will dissipate IL az
quickly a shower of bullets-and without
killing anybody.
The inability OF riotous mob TO maintain
itself i'm the face of a powerful stream OF
water steadily and persistently poured upon
IL has been frequently proved. And there
would be fitness of things I'm upholding
the reign OF law by a rain OF water from 4
jail standpipe. IT, by a practical test, IL II
proved that mobs can be duelled without
being killed. the riot standpipe will soon be-
come a feature Of every jail and prison
yard i'm the country. Its moral effect would
mansfestly be increased by two considera-
tons: no keeper of Jail or prison could ex-
cuse himself for not playing the riot hose
on a lynChing party on the ground that he
shrank from slaughter. and no member Of
a mob would have the excuse OF self-de-
Tense for using firearms against the man
with the hose.

At the end of the first kilometre, the car

she gasped out TO her companion was it
necessary TO go so fast? With set teeth he
shouted yes, or they would lose the boat.
He did not add that if the boat were lost

for her would be gone. Even now he could
not feel sure that they might not both be

She spoke again as they went through
Rouen, some admiring word the old
world beauty of the town, but he bent
down and called out to her:

A little black cloud in the East appeared,
A little black speck i'm the sky.
Ii sailed in the blue
The long day through,
Silently, silently drifting.
Right into the sunset gold it steered,
Into the molten gold:
There il lay
AT the close of day.
Lazily, laZiiy shifting.

IL lay i'm the sunset sea;

Such was the Death of the little cloud.
