of the courage and self-possession

last Saturday, said a married man.
"That day [ went to visit my wife
and four-year-old boy, who are stay
ing at a town on the Erie canal. To-
ward evening all three of us went out
for walk along the waterside. The
weather was delightful and we had a
most enjoyable time wandering about
the woods and banks until, quite tired
out, we sat down on log overlooking
some very picturesque locks.
GLOW it happened cannot say,
but my wife and the boy started ac-
ross the lock, and when [ first noticed
them they were nearly half way across
the boy hanging to his mothers skirts
and she apparently finding the foot
way very difficult to keep. Why she
had ever undertaken such a hazardous
walk I cannot tell, nor did I stop to
find out. The two beings who were
all the world to me were in jeopardy

Story Of a Lame Acrobat
Reads Like a Romance

A dispatch from Milwaukee, Wis,
says: The mystery, which a New
York bankers family has been caring
for l.. NJ Gardner, of this city, a
young trapeze performer with bro
ken limb, who arrived at New York
from London, has been solved. The
Gardeners, mother and son, have
reached here from the East with nurs-
es and with them came a report that
the banker will build home for the
boy to insure his comfort as long as
he lives. An explanation of the gen.
crosby Of the banker is given in this
story:
While walking down a principal
street in New York one day Gardner
was attracted by a runaway. The
sWaying coach containing a child
came down the street dragged by two
frightened horses. The young man
dashed out, grabbed the animals, and
brought them to a standstlll. The
mother of the child offered Gardner a
reward. He refused it, then she gave

of their lives, and with bound was
up and out upon the lock to rescue
them.
"Possibly I may in my foolish haste
have frightened them; possibly they
were already nervous and thought
they should turn back. Of that I cam
not say. All I know is that as I came
hurrying to them the mother turned
and in doing so stumbled someway
against the boy, knocking him into the
water above the lock, while she dove
forward to the water below. Above
me struggling in the water was my
boy, with his golden curls spread all
around his head and his little cap
floating away, while in the eddies I
could see my wife's body whirled
and tossed hither and thither by the
cruel waves. | could not save both,
and I stood irresolute and
"Good heavens!' exclaimed an ex-
cited listner, unable to restrain his
feelings; "what did you do?'
"I awoke," said the speaker, bland
ly, "and found the boy tickling my
, ear with blade of grass and my wife
aiding and abetting him."

him her card, telling him if he ever
needed assistance to call upon her.
Gardner refused to give him name
and disappeared. When he came to
read the card he found it bore the
name of the bankers wife.
Soon afterward Gardner returned
to London. 1t was there he fell and
missed the net and sustained serious
injuries. News Of the accident ap-
peared in the New York papers, and,
with it came the story Of Gardner s
act in rescuing the bankers child.
Seeing the report the bankers wife
took the first boat for London. Upon
arriving she engaged the two best
physicians in the city, employed a
competent staff Of nurses, and did her
best to make Gardner happy in his
trouble.
Meantime Gardeners father died.
Hearing the news he asked that his
mother might come to London. The
bankers wife at once made arrange
ments, and since that time Mrs. Gard
ner has been with her son.

To the south a red glow rises and

OF property that yesterday rep
resented values to the extent of
from SIS, 100000 to $125,OOO, 900.
Not even close approximation
can be made of the insurance.
Men tonight talk in figures
that are appalling and almost in
comprehensive because of their
vastness. An expert, the city
building inspector, estimates the
loss in building at $10O,0OO,OoO to
$15O,000,000; on the other hand,
it is said that insurance estimates
do not place the total loss at a
greater figure.
One factor that will figure
largely in the final estimates con-
sists of the securities in the
banks and trust companies whose
homes were destroyed. Their
vaults and safes tonight are in
ruins, covered with tons of debris.
Experts who have given them as
close examination as possible,
express the belief that the con-
tents are safe.
Not a single life has been lost,
and not human being has been
even dangerously injured. The
hospital lists consist of minor
burns with the exception of
Jacob Inglefritz, a fireman from
York, Pa. He has a fractured
leg and is badly burned.
The flames were held in check
at the Union docks and prevent
ed from leaping Jones Falls and
placing the entire city east of
there in jeopardy. A score of
times flames of the fire were
found tapping the sides of 1um-
Der piles of the east bank of the
falls. Heroic measures stayed
the onsweep of fire.

Mr.. EDITOR:
Will you kindly print this in
your paper? I feel that it is
high time for some body to say
something. For a whole year
the Fitzgerald Enterprise and
the Fitzgerald Citizen pulled
shoulder to shoulder for the good
OF the town. The Enterprise
with its three times-a-week pull
for law and order, and the Citi-
zen with its breezy city style and
boom numbers. The two editors
were ou the best of terms, and it
was common occurrence to see
them going along the street arm
in-arm, and Editor Mercer was
the first to compliment Editor
Martin on his big industrial pa
per.
For twelve long months the
white winged angel of peace how
cred over the printing offices of
the town and the papers we're
good and useful.
Now all this is changed, for
the Citizen has again fallen into
the hands of some people whose
only recommendation is their
business ability" and whose
first act was to commence to
abuse Editor Mercer as soon as
they got control of the paper.
We want more editors like Mer-
Ger and Martin, who can work
together for the good of the town.

progress, who will try to build

probabilities. I find the same opinion
held by other real esate men, and find
further that the farmers are holding to
the same views. and are backing up
their opinions by buying lands adjoin-
ing their farms wherever they are able.
I have said to several farmers:
"Why do you not put up better build
ingsa'' and the reply has been: eve
want to use our spare money in secur-
ing land while it is cheap, for we realize
that it must 90 much higher in the near
future, and we can build our buildings
when we cannot buy land at the pres
ent figures. I find the strongest faith
in the country among the farmers
themselves. In conversation with them
they back up their opinions with their
statement as to what they have done
themselves, and almost without excep-
tion close the conversation with the
statement, 81 do not know where
