the only two places where New YORK girl
has much of an opportunity to receive pro-
posals of marriage. For you must hio"
that fats and apartments do not nave par
lors and unless the girls family Is consid-
crate enough to leave the sitting room when
a caller comes there Is no place where she
and he can be alone. except IN the park OF
on the fire escape Not even the dining
room is available-it opens on the sitting
room by folding doors nearly always.
Another widespread use of the IRE escape
is as pantry. This occurs when the nre
escape leads from the kitchen window. That
housewife whose fire escape Is so situated
Is exceptional who does not minimize her Ice
bills (the New York refrigerator Is gen
orally in the kitchen. not far removed from
the gas range by keeping her vegetables
and fruits and milk and drinking water on
the fire escape. Opposite the kitchen win
dow of the apartment which the writer oc-
cupies Is the kitchen window of woman
who takes boarderS; and her fire escape Is
piled high with edibles from the beginning
of cool autumn weather until hot weather
comes. And in summer. when she Is com
PEELED to put things on ice. she does so In
an ice box which she moves out on the f1re
escape over the opening. 1t Is cooler there
than in the heated kitchen. for the court is
narrow that the suns rays do not reach
to the fire escape.
On the East Side 1t Is customary to stand
the ice box over the fire escape opening. 1t
was refrigerator so located which blocked
the way to safety Of most of the persons
who lost their lives IN an Allen street
tenement house fire last spring, and the
firemen continually complaining that
they are hampered IN their work by 10
numbered fire escapes.
Discouraging Task Of the Inspectors.
Tenement house inspectors have discov-
cred baskets of potatoes, barrels of flour
and boxes of canned goods choking fire
escapes: they have ordered hundreds OF fire
escapes cleared of empty boxes and wood
gathered in the streets to be used as fuel.
But little good 1t does to clear the fire
escapes: soon inspectors back is
turned they are straightway Uttered again.
and when an inspector does make an ar
rest the tenant pleads ignorance OF the law
or holds that he Is not responsible for the
condition of his fire escape, and nine times
out of ten the magistrate let's him off with
a warning only.
The tenement house commissioner is now
awaiting decision from the corporation
counsel as to who is responsible for the con-
dftion of tenement houses fire escapes
the tenants or the owner? 1t Is his belief
that the owner should be held responsible
through his janitor or housekeeper. Then
he thinks, the fire escapes would be kept
reasonably clear. As It is now the owner
Is in no danger OF being fined or inaprisoned,

Written for The Star
In New York city there are nearly 400, COO
dwellings which come under the laws def
milton of tenement house. These houses
-tenements proper, fats. apartment houses
and apartment hotels-are provided, approx
imatefy. with 100000 fire escapes, nearly
all Of the balcony type. 1t Is to these fire
escapes that the visitor should turn his at
tention If he desires to carry away with
him realistic idea of the fearfully crowded
conditions prevailing IN the borough Of
Manhattan, the original little old New
York"
He has undoubtedly heard that New
Workers labor ingeniously to make Of
every inch Of space at their command. An
hour spent in inspecting the fire escapes
will not only confirm the statement. but
lead to the discovery of a fact even more
startling-that the average New Yorker, in

WORTHLESS BANK BILLS.
Issues of the Old New Brunswick State
Bank of New Jersey in Circulation.

From the Chicago Tribune
At least 1000 of wildcat" money is
sued by the New Brunswick State Bank
of New Jersey before the war of the re-
belion, is being circulated throughout the
United States. and especially in the terri
tory adjacent to Chicago.
According to the United States secret
service men hundreds OF bills of various
denominations have been passed by swim
diers who give them to small storekeepers
in payment for merchandise. The passage
of three $50 notes of the spurious money
has been called to the attention of the de-
pertinent during the last week.
Although the laws against counterfeiting
are stringent. and the punishment for their
violation severe, the United States govern
ment has no jurisdiction over cases where
worthless money is passed According to
Capt Thomas L. Porter. head of the secret
service bureau in Chicago the crime is that
of obtaining money under false pretenson.
an offense against the state, and not
against the federal government.
Daily cases of small merchants being
swindled by the sharrers who circulate the
money reported to Capt Porter. In al
most every case the money passed is of the
New Brunswick issue. 1t is sold by Silas
c. Stevens. d curio and coin dealer at 60
Dearborn street. Stevens does not DENY
that he handles the money He says he
sells it for what it is. and that he does
not care to what use it is put after it passes
out of his hands.
Bills of the 81 denomination bear a close
resemblance TO United States money and
hundreds of this denomination are daily
being circulated as real money. Although
the so notes are utterly unlike the fed
eral issue, little trouble has been found in
getting small merchants to accept them
+ Schroeder of i251 Wellington avenue re-
ported to the secret service men that he
was given one Of these bills, and that
when he presented it at the bank he found
II worthless. Two cases also were reported
from Racine, Wis, and one from MiIwau-
kee.
Five years ago, according to Capt Por-
ter. he seized $4,000 Of the spurious money
found IN the possession of Stevens The
dealer sued to recover the notes and was
successful, the court holding that the
United States government had no case
The judge a o said that as long as he sold
them without misrepresentation he com
mitted no crime. Stevens has a regular
schedule of prices For the 81 bills he
charges co cents apiece.

Making Star Spangled Banners.
From Pearson's Magazine.

From Pearson's Magazine.
Making the American flag is the work of
skilled labor. Girls and women alone pos
sess the degree of ability required to OBJ
tain best results. Only the heaviest and
least complicated features of the work
fall to men. First, the stripes are cut from
huge rolls of red or white silk, or bunting
Then they are basted together, and later
turned over to girls operating sewing ma
chimes that stitch at the rate of 2iOO
stitches a minute The lock stitch is used
and the thread fed from spools each hold
ing $4,000 yards The stripes stitched to-
gether. the flag IS ready to receive the
unicn. Red is the predominant color in
flag. The union Is the blue field which
appears In the left upper corner of flag
and it contains forty-five stars. one for
each state Silk flag stars are Of embroid-
cred silk. On wool bunting flags they are
of muslin. The union itself is Of the same
material the body of the flag. A star
IS half the width Of the stripe of the flag
obtaining 1t.
Muslin stars cut out by machinery at
the rae of 5000 hour. Embroidered
stars are cut out in block form by, the
use OF dies, sewing machines being utilized
for The enfbroidering process. These stars
are five-pointed, each point being precisely
like its fellow. No hand can become so
skilled as to make one point the counter
part of another. so the dies, which never
err. are used. The muslin from which the
stars are cut out is folded in forty five
thicknesses and placed beneath die at
tached to press operated by foot power
sharp pressure of the treadle brings the
die down upon the cloth with such force
that the sharp steel cuts as cleanly as a
surgeons knife.
The task of the girls who arrange the
stars upon the unions is one of exactitude.
The stars are placed in six rows, alternat-
ing eight and seven. Their position must
not vary a sixteenth of an inch Once
in place they are basted by hand, and
then go to the machine operatives who sew
them firmly upon the unions. Embroider-
ed stars are basted the unions untrim-
med The trimmers then clip away the
superfuous cloth. and the star itself stands
revealed.

Walters "size Up" Their Customers

From the hdhsas tity ilineS.
DO you know" said the head waiter
at one of the Kansas City hotels recently
that an experienced waiter can usually
tell whether a diner is wealthy or not by
the way he handles his meal check? II a
man carelessly pitches out his money for
the waiter to pay the bill. without looking
over his check we know the chances are
he isn't wealthy. He Is indulging In a
luxury and fears he might be laughed at
IL he examined the check. The man who
has plenty of money examines his check
closely, rule. If he finds an item
which he thinks Is wrong he tells the
waiter about it. 1t probably was just
such care as that that made him rich
Is he laughed at" Well. l guess not
Really. the walters admire him for his
earefulness and the result is they are
doubly particular about how he is
charged"

and little he cares how the tenants the
fire escapes so long as they pay the rentals
and are satisfied. OF course. there are
some owners who insist on the fire escapes
being kept in constant readiness for their
only legitimate use; but their number Is
small compared with the great body who
give the matter no attention.
Fire Escape as Clothes Rack.

thereof suddenly take it into their heads no
longer to cover the fire escapes of a morn

day with wearing apparel representative of
almost every land under the sun. The sight
of clothing IN all stages of@wear and show

clothing as well as outer garments-iapping
on the fire escapes as far the eye can see
up and down the street and on street after

A Few Startling Figures.
But perhaps you are inclined to think
that New Workers. not universally
careless Of their bodily safety as these
statements would make them out to be-
Then consider these two brief paragraphs
OF figures:
Five hundred and fifty-f1ve houses in
representative East Side section were in
spected for violation OF the clause in the
tenement house law forbidding the encum-
bering of fire escapes. Fifty-three per cent
or go houses, had fire escapes badly en-
numbered: 1S5 had fire escapes party en-
numbered: "a had slightly encountered fire
escapes; 1913 had the fire escape openings
closed. and only six houses showed clear
| fire escapes These houses were occupied
| by 1906 families at the time of inspection.
In another section, where 1878 houses were
inspected, the fire escapes Of 100 houses
were badly encountered: 81 houses had The
| fire escapes partly encountered and 80 had
them slightly encountered. These houses
are located in a favored uptown residential
section.
