Fire Drill in Schools Demanded by
Public Safety.

Editor Morning News: Fire Chief
Mcguire has urged this impor-
tant subject time and again. 1t is
high time that public sentiment should
come to his aid. Don't delay this es-
sential movement for the protection
Of our children. Don't trust to our
luck any longer. There is a time
when luck runs out. The luck of the
pleasure steamer General Slocum in
New York harbor ran out. Chief Ma
guire is authority on this subject. He
fills an Office the duty of which is to
look to the safety of the public. His
suggestion of a fire drill in our schools
should be taken UP at once.

FRAUDS IN A BALE OF HAE
Frauds in Watch Cases.

According to an article in the Cinc;n'
natl Commercial, a fifty-one pound stone
was recently found in that city secreted
in a bale of hay OF eighty pounds.
This is not as bad as finding lump OF
lead of nearly one-half the weight of the
solid gold watch case secreted in the cen
ter of the case.
Gold watch cases are sold by weight,
and no one can see where this lead Ii
aecreted until the springs Of the case are
taken out and the lead will be found Sc
GREETED behind them.
These cases are made by companies who
profess to be honest but furnish tho
means to the dishonest to rob the pub.
lie. 1t is not pleasant for anyone to find
that he has lugged lump of lead in his
watch case.
Another trick the makers of spurious
solid gold watch cases is to stamp the
case III. S. Assay" The United States
does not stamp any article made out OF
gold and silver except coin, and the taklr,
by using this stamp, wants to make the
public believe that the government had
guaranteeing the fineness Of watch cases.
Another trick of the watch falir is to
advertise watch described as a solid
gold filled watch with twenty or twenty
hveyear guarantee. These watches are
generally sent C. 0. D., and if the pnr-
chaser has paid for the watch, he finds
that the Company which guaranteed the
watch to wear is not in existence.
The Dueber-Hampden Watch Company
of Canton, Ohio, who are constantly ex.
posing these frauds, will furnish the
names of the manufacturers who are IN
this questionable business.

Big a Hurry for the We'd

Rt. Rev. DR.. Leighton Coleman, bish-
op of Delaware, told the following story,
says the Philadelphia Telegraph, to some
friends in town whom he was visiting re-
Gently:
"A young man came up to NE one day
with the remark: Bishop, want you to
marry me on next Wednesday,
Gail right; I'll marry YOU
"'Well, want the church bell to ring
eyes, you can have the bell rung.'
"'Well, I want the organ to play
"'All right, you can have the organ.
"'And l want everything else anybody
ever had at church wedding
You shall have it,
"Well, the night came, the bell rang,
the organ played, the church was crowd
ed, and everything went off as the young
man wanted it. When the ceremony was
over the young couple waited, instead of
hand. shook hands with the bride, and
then held out my hand to the bridegroom.
He had his hand deep in his trousers
pocket, and as l stood with my hand out,
he said, somewhat impatiently, and in a
tone that could be heard all over the
church:
Pm getting the money out just ~
fast as I can
Then everybody in the church giggled."
