COSTLY BLAZE.

An alarm from box II, on Monday
evening at 4:55. called the fire de-
partment to the residence of Capt.
1. II. West, on Fourth Avenue, be-
tween Ewing and Conway, where a
back room was found to be in a
light blaze. By hard fight the
fire was confined to the room in
which it originated. 1t was used
as a storage room for clothing and
as a sitting room. Quite guam
tity of clothing Of the family was
destroyed, involving loss of some
5000, besides the damage to the
room itself.
Tile house was frame and the
fight made by the firemen was an
exceedingly good one, in prevent
ing the spread of the flames to
other parts of it. 1t is supposed
that it caught from the CRATE fire.

Modern Advertising.

From the Louisville CourierJOurnal
One of the notable business tendencies Of
the present Is the resort to advertising by
certain classes of merchants and manufac-
turers who formerly ignored this means of
extending their markets. Until recently
they left newspaper advertising to the re-
taller. contenting themselves with other
methods of seeking trade. their chief re-
lance being the drummers employed to
make personal sales of their wares to job
bers and retailers. How rapidly such manu-
facturers and merchants are changing their
views and methods a glance at the adver-
Using columns of ngh-grade newspapers
and periodicals will strikingly show. In
them will be found regularly the advertise
mentS of establishments that few years
ago did not advertise at all; indeed, of
whole lines of business that have but re-
Gently become convinced of the advantages
Of advertising. Until the last few years
most of the general advertising was of pro-
prietary and patented articles, whose sale
depended upon the creation of market
for them by making their names and claims
known to consumers by constant and eff
fective advertising. But the makers and
sellers of staple articles have discovered
that what has thus been done for special
articles can also be done for their own
products

battle 1t Is to be doubted IL the Japanese
army lost as many men in killed and
wounded during the recent fighting at Va
fangow as these victims to misguided In
dulgences in explosive patriotism.
Next Monday in this city good many
persons will be burned and MANNED If the
warning afforded by the records of past
years are not needed. If parents permit
their children to buy fireworks without re-
straint and to set them off without super
vision. there will be deaths and maiu,ings
Homes will be desolated. Property will be
destroyed. The great national birthday
will be made time of mourning instead OF
a day of rejoicing. 1t Is the urgent duty OF
every father now to look to his young sons
and daughters to see that they have
proper notion of the risks they run In han
ding these most treacherous articles.
Meanwhile every police officer should be
on the alert for instances Of law-violation
In the handling Of explosive stocks The
lesson taught by the Philadelphia fire
should not be wasted. 1t Is far better to
prevent disaster by checking the dangerous

to find them blamewOrthy after the fact.

sacrificed on that day.

Preserve the Parks.

These early summer days fully demon
strate the wisdom of the men who planned
and founded the city of Washington on
basis of liberal park space Each of the
city's reservations is thronged day and
night with weary people, seeking shelter
from the suns rays or refreshment from
contact with the soil Children play there
in hundreds. The parks keep the balance
of health better than much medicine. They
make the city-bound life endurable and
safe. No man can walk through these
spaces during the heated season and wit
ress the scenes of relaxation and comfort
there to be met without feeling a bitter
anger toward all who propose lessening
the park area of Washington by the use of
the reservations for building sites. Every
square foot of such ground taken away
from the parks. unless Immediately replac-
ed with a compeusating space. takes some.
what from the comfort and health-chance
OF the population. The area in the mall
now being denuded of trees and excavated
for the new museum building is direct
and heavy loss, not to be dsregarded be-
cause il is such small portion of the whole
of the great park. And the building for
the Department of Agriculture soon to be
erected there well will still further cur
tail the breathing space of the people.
These enroachments upon the mall space
and those of similar character in other
parts of the city stand for an evil ten
dency on the part of Congress that every
true Washingtonian should stoutly combat
at all turns. The boulevard-vista scheme
would take away hundreds of trees. 1t
would be the focal feature of a great build
ing system still further lessening the park

the area thus added to remain inviolate In
all the years to come. this contemplated
scheme of building emplacement would be

the residents of the capital. But no sure
guarantee can be given that in the future
even such compensatory additions would

Open Trenches in the Avenue.

The protests of the merchants doing BUSH
ness the south side of Pennsylvania
avenue against the prosecution of the
sewer work in front of their esta blishments
by the open-cut method Is entirely reason
able. The Commissioners. it appears, have
adopted this method in order to save
$4,000. which would he the cost of the
covered style of work west of Az street on
account of the change in the grade. The
merchants aver, with show of reason, that
the open-trench work in front of their busi-
ness houses will cost them very heavily. for
time virtually putting a stop to their
transactions. and that it would be better
for the District to pay the additional $1,000
for the less obstructive work than to put
so important a section of the business COM
munity at disadvantage during an entire
season.
The seems to have been settled by
the decision to go on with the open-cut
method on terms that will insure the ut
most rapidty of execution. To reduce
the disruption of the street and the inter-
ruption of traffic to a minimum the lengths
of open trench should be kept to the lowest
terms compatible with good and economical
work. 1t would be we'll worth while for
the District to arrange a series of premiums
for rapid construction. The contractor
should press the project night and day
Even under the terms of the Commission
ers latest program the trench In front of
the square between 9Th and eth will not
be filled in before September IT, and 18th
street will not be reached by the contrac-
tor before some time in December, the
sewer being laid at the rate of about 800
feet month.
Thus there is a prospect that some por-
tiOn Of Pennsylvania avenue will be laid
open for considerable distance for the
next six months Washington wants none
of the experiences that have, during the
last few years. pardlyzed business in some
portions of New York in connection with
the subway construction. 1t hopes to see
this conspicuous and disfiguring and dis
commoding work pushed through at top
speed. 1t will stand its discomforts philO-
sophiCdlly as long as the authorities keep
the contractor on the move. There Is
chance in this enterprise to establish a
record for rapid efficient construction. to
reassure the community as To future per-
formauCes.

Williams and Bailey.

The proposition to choose both the tempo
rsry and the permanent chairman of the
st. Louis convention from the south Is OBJ
jeCted to in some quarters as unduly recOg-
nizing that section. The objection may
prevail, but it is not we'll taken. Why
should not the south have those honors
She is not asking for place on the ticket,
nor will she be drawn upon for the man to
manage the campaign. The two places
named, therefore, are all that are open to
the south, and she has a number of men
competent to fill them. Mr.. Williams of
Mississippi and Mr.. Bailey of Texas, whose
names are mentioned, possess exceptional
qualifications for such duties. Both are
capital speakers and parlamentarans. and
would come as near to keeping a turbulent
body In the middle of the road as any of
its other members

The Peoples Party.

In the great interest that attaches to what
the republicans have done at Chicago and
to what the democrats may do at st. Louis.
let us not forget that there is peoples
party, and that 1t is to meet in national
convention on July 4th.
The leading man in this party-though
probably not the most gifted-is ex-senator
Allen of Nebraska. And yet he has some
gifts He ranks very well lawyer, and
he certainly is a wonderful talker for readl-
ness and endurance. He was frequent
and q fluent debater while in the Senate.
and tackled all kinds Of subjects. An I'M
known man taken from the bench OF a
western state, he bore himself with great
ease In the most august deliberative body in
the world. and crossed lances there with
the most distinguished statesmen. He made
good deal of what is called fame during
his one term as senator.
His admirers would be glad to see Mr..
Allen head his party's presidential ticket.
But there is boom for Thomas E. Watson
of Georgia, and this gives the appearance
of a contest In the party. Maybe it is only
an appearance. Maybe Mr.. Allen would
willingly give way for Mr.. Watson. and
Mr.. Watson for Mr. Allen. The Georgia
man Is fine talker also. and was thunder
ing in the House at the time the Nebraska
man was laundering in the Senate. Why
not the ticket of Allen and Watson? or
Watson and Allen? Either ticket would
probably run like wildflre in those sections
of the country where there are members OF
the peoples party.
This party's platform. stated in a few
words. Is, that whatever is ought not to be.
1t is not distinctly now, as at one time.
hard luck party. 1t comedies that many
people are getting along very well, but it
contends that everybody would be greatly
benefited by the new order of things which
1t offers to the public. 1t holds that both
of the old parties are mOneyridden: that
the people have lost their say-so: that new
blood is demanded in the conduct of affairs;
and so forth
Mr. Allen and Mr. Watson have trained
with Mr.. Bryan hitherto and they prob
ably still admire him. But the talk of a re-
turn to sanity on the part of the democrats
has evidently filled them with fear of the
coming downfall of Organism. and they are
preparing for a fight of their own.

Fireworks and Fatalities.

Vest rdIy's fireworks explosion in PhIla-
delphil gives early and awful warning of
the great power for evil of this form of
personal and popular entertainment. OF
course the business Of making and selling
fireworks is "a dangerous one. and 1t is not
matter for wonder that the stock of the
estabi~h mcut in this case should all be set
on hrr when once the sparks began to fly.
But tie extraordinary part of the case is
that large stock of explosives should have
been allowed I'm a building occupied by
other interests. The three persons killed
were q a proprietor Of a hat mandatory
and hi- employees, In an upper story of the
building. How many places are there in
WashirE ton where fireworks are kept In
quantities for sale in similar circumstances?
How many small shops are being now well
stocked with these goods, while families
live overhead?
The danger from fireworks Is one of the
greatest of menaces to the public. Last
year In this country, according to statistics
just compiled by the Pennsylvania state
board of health. 1910 persons were injured
and 466 were killed in consequence of the
use OF toy pistols, giant crackers and other
explosive toys during the Independence day
