THE FIRE CROWD.
As n Rule n Likes BiE Blaze aud
Crashing Walls.


Crashing Walls.
'There IS one curious thing connect
ed with freo.' said a thoughtful man,
"aud that Is the fact that while the
fireman is always a hero in the public
estimate and while men and women
have all kinds of admiration for these
brave fellows they yet want to see
them get the worst Of it in the fight
against the lnmes. II is an interesting
fact that the average man and woman
are not at all anxious TO see the firemen
get the fire under control. They would
much rather see the flames spread un-
til the affair developed into an i'm
mense confagration. Mind you. the
trait is not at all vicious There is no
malice in It, IL is simply the love of
excitement and adventure. things that
are so deep rooted in human nature
that we may not control them at will.
Besides, we want TO develop our he
roes TO the limit We want our tire-
mon to fight good fight against long
odds and under great difficulties. We
cannot quarrel with this feeling in the
human makeup. After all. II is what
one may call the poetry Of human ma
ture and without it this old system OF
ours would be dull and prosaic indeed.
OF course. you win always find few
persons around a fire who are directly
concerned in the fight the firemen are
making. They want 10 see the flames
put out. In the case OF some OF the
spectators it means bread and meat
1t means the loss Of a position or may
be the loss OF home. But was speak
ing Of the vast majority OF men and
women who gather TO witness a FIRE.
The Ere is the thing with them. They
want TO see a big blaze and hear the
crash of the walls and all that sort Of
thing Did you ever take the trouble
to analyze a fire crowdf In the first
place an alarm Of fire will draw a
crowd quicker than anything in the
world. Whenever the bells begin to
clang and the engines go rushing down
the street you will see men, women and
children rushing this way and that. in
order 70 see as much as may be seen
of the fire and fire fighters. The hour
Of day or night does not make so much
difference. The crowd will get there
in some way and for some reason
though the great majority Of the per
sons have no sort Of interest other thar
idle curiosity. Once on hand, they
want to see a good FIRE. and that's why
| say they want TO see the flames gel
the best OF the fremen. They will gC
away and talk about what a game fight
the fire laddies made. Human nature
is a curious thing, is it not?"-New Or

Alfred o. Crozier was interviewed yes

one can read them, TO be sure but
perhaps the obliging conductor would
stop the train TO accommodate an in

Have your card in the hotel register
by all means. Strangers stopping at
hotels for a night generally buy a cigar
or two before they leave town. and
they need some inspiriting literary food
besides.
II an advertising agent wants your
business advertised in a fancy frame
