Devdsted Baltimore Sizing Up
the Situation, and Already
Beginning to Rebuild

Baltimore, Feb. 10.--At a meeting to
ture called to confer with the mayo
and board of public works and lead
ing citizens. 1t vas unanimously de-
cided to report a bill today asking the
United States government to send sold
iers to Baltimore to police the fire dis
trict. The committee will also report
in favor of an immediate appropria-
ton by the legislature.
Mayor McLane said thai he will ap-
point an emergency committee of rep
resentative citizens TO act as an ad-
visory board to the municipal auShori-
ties.
This was another day of ceasa!rSs
labor on the part Of the officials md
business men of crippled Baltimore.
System has been brought out of the
chaos and with cheerful pluck the la
Dor of rehabilitation has been begun.
Architects are being consulted, labor
arranged for and already orders for
structural material are going forward.
Financial institutions are today BUSH
ly engaged in carting their securities
n funds to temporary offices out
side the confines of the burned district.
Building Insuector Preston was ex
ceedingly busy today due to clamor
for permits by large business and
financial houses to rebuild.
To the Associated Press Mr.. Pres
ton said:

fered by the fire is truly remarkable.
Without waiting to have their insur-
arce adjusted they are ready and

anxious to go ahead. | am compelled
however, to withhold all building per-
mits within the fire limits for several
days. The burned territory is too dan
gerous for any large force to work
Ill just now"
The city officials propose in engaging
men to help clear up the fire district
to give preference TO men who were
thrown out of work as a result of the
fire. There are many thousands of
these.
The night was marked by two small
fires, the fall of a humble of walls and
conditions of extreme discomfort for
the soldiers and policemen on guard,
the temperature dEoping about ten de-
gIees and a keen wind blowing dur
ing the night and the outer ines were
maintained as strictly as ever by the
three regiments and the naval brigade.
Buildings CT all descriptions in the
downtown district are in great de-
raand for use as temporary offices.

UNCLE ABNER
ON DANCING
BY NIXON WATERMAN

Since I've been in the city here alvin
with my son
I've fingered out that ok in town
dont never have no fun
Their swell "sorays' they a about
would never 40 for me;
They amt much like the good old
times the young folks used to see.
These town crowds are 50 p4opef-like
and so polite: / spose
They like to get together jest to show
their parry clothes;
But as for me, well jimmy! If l jest
had the chance
I'd like to spend an evenin' at an old
time country dance:
Salute your partners; eyes all
bright;
Gents IN a huddle; ladies to the right;
-Four to two and two come down.
Lady in the center and five hands
roun';
Ladies swing out and gents swing
Five-up-and go it ag'in;
Gents in the center; ladies in the
shade,
Balance to your partners; all prone
nadei"
We used to get together in the can
dies waverin' light
And gayly swing our partners until
way into the night.
There wasn't none of what you'd call
this ~highfalutin style,
everybody waded in for pleasure
all the while.
You TAX a dozen country girls and
jest is many boys
And set 'em all a-dancin' and there's
bound to be a noise:
And so the fdile had to sing it's notes
so loud and clear
The good old stirrin' music's still a
ring.n' in my ear:
Ladies sashay; gents keep still;
Gents i'm a circle which ladies fill;
Six to two and two come down;
Lady in the center and Eel hands
roun';
Do, do, gents, and all go slow;
Do. ST, ladies, don't you know;
Gents turn a somerset; ladies swing:
Gents on the corner cut a pigeon
wingi"
And when we'd finished dancin' then
the eatables was spread;
Jest lots of cake and cider and of APP
Piles bold and red,
And popcorn balls and taffy and the
best Of punkin pies.
And, take 1T all in al, a feas a king
could not despise.
But them old times are numbered with
the pleasures of the past;
AHEy We gone the way OF lOlS OF INilSS
hat seemed too good to last.
But still I'm hopin' Fate I'll plan to
to give me one more chance
To gaZe upon the pleasures of an Old
time country dance:
Gents glide forward: ladies wait;
Swing them corners like swingin' on
a gate;
All join hands and hold on tight;
Swing your partners; circle to the
right;
Snow-hakes fallin': wheat's all dead;
E~verybody'H have to eat com bread
Gents chase ladies round the hall;
Skirts a-~swishin'; promenade allI'

Lesson In the Use of Simple Terms
In Letter Writing.
A few months ago the son OF rail-

influence given a position of some i'm.
portance on large railway. He was
fresh from Cambridge, and in the or
ders which he from time to time issued
TO the men under him always made usr
of the longest, most unusual word,
This habit led to some rather expen.
sive blunders, and, the matter coming
before the general manager, he wrote
the young official the following letter:
in promulgating your esoterlc cogi.
tations and in articulating your super
fetal sentimentalities and amicable phil
osophical or psychological observations
beware of platitudinous ponderosity.
Let your conversational communication
possess clarified conciseness, a com.
pacted comprehensibleness, coales-
cent consistency and a concatenated
cogency. Eschew all conglomeratlon Of
fiatulent garrulity, iejune babblement
and asinlne affectation. Let your ex-
temporaneous descantings and unpre-
medltated expatiation have intelligibil-
ity and veracious vivaclty. without rho
domontade or thrasonical bombast.
Sedulously avoid all polysyllabic pro-
fundity, ventriloquial verbosity and
vaniloquent vapidity. Shun double en-
tendre, prurient jocosity and pestifer-
GUS profanity, obscurant or apparent.
In other words. talk plainly. briefly,
naturally, sensibly. purely and truth
fully. Don't put on airs; say what you
mean; mean what you say, and don't
use big words" n

hint and changed his style.-London

A sn,nIl neninninr.

Long before the Revolution young
printer in Philadelphia. when he had
taken off his working apron Mt night,
used to sit porting over his dozen Of old
volumes by freight lie soon knew
them by heart and hungered for more.
But books were costly, and he had but
little money.
He had eight or ten cronies, young
men who, like himself, were eager for
knowledge. Ranging his books on a
shelf, he invited his friends TO do the
same, that each Of them might have
the benefit of them all,
Ben Franklin thus laid the founda-
tion of the first circulating library in
this country.

The seventeen Year Locust.


The open air career of the seventeen
year locust is soon completed, though
in its dormant and earlier form 1t is
said TO live underground for seventeen
years, feeding on roots.
The larvae drop from eggs laid in the
twigs of trees and quickly burrow out
of sight, each one forming for itself
subterranean chamber, where 1t re-
mains buried and alone month after
month for fully seventeen years, pre-
pairing in some mysterious manner for
its brief enjoyment of freedom.
With perfect regularity Mt the end
of the allotted period myriads Of these
insects attain maturity and emerge
from their long imprisonment when
for a month or so the winged male
sings his striking song of courtship,
while the female busies herself with
laying eggs.
There is continuous record for
abbut two centuries of the recurrence
of the clcada at these seventeen year
intervals. The first note on the subject
was made in 1715.

RED Hair.

Nowadays people with red hair are
somewhat envied. 1t was not always
so. In Egypt, for instance, the auburn
headed were regarded with aversion.
The ancient Egyptians were so violent
~ opposed TO hair of this tone that
once year they burned maiden who
possessed bright locks in the hope Of
DISCRIMINATING or lessening what they
considered curse.
Sentiment aside, people of the auburn
head type have vast advantage. They
are less liable to badness than those
who own brown or black hair. The
reason thereof is that one red hair Is
as thick as three dark hairs. with
10000 red hairs the scalp is well
matched. With the same number Of
dark hairs a person is almost bald.
The average number OF filaments that
the brunette belle has to comb and
brush is 100000.

cocoanut clocks.

In Malay the natives keep a record
Of time in the following way:
Floating in a bucket filed with wa
ter they place a cocoanut shell. having
a small perforation, through which by
slow degrees the water finds its way
inside. This opening is so proportioned
that it takes just one hour for the
shell TO I'LL and sink. Then a watch
man calls out, the shell is emptied, and
they begin again.
Such tribes as minutes and seconds
are rarely needed on the peninsula.
Fancy any one asking the time in Ma
lay and being told that the cocoanut
shell was half fun
