Portable Breathing Apparatus an In
ventlon Of Much Merit.

In Europe a respiratory and life
saving apparatus has been used with
considerable success by miners. hre-
men and others. who are required TO
pen.trate mines or apartments that
are filled with smoke or unbreathable
gascs, especially after accidents such
as explosions. With this apparatus
sufficient air and oxygen are carried
TO support respiration for two hours,
even while the individual Is working.
Tho apparatus consists OF a masE or
helmet. which completely covers the
face. but exposes the ears, so that
while the eyes of the wearer are pro
tected from the smoke he can hear
distinctly.
There are connected with the mask
two rubber bags-one for the eNhaled
ali and the other connected with the
oxygen and the regenerated air. The
former is contained in steel cylinders.
ard by means of proper reducing
valves acts on the air after the car
bonic acid which has been exhaled is
absorbed by eranulated potash. The
instrument weighs about twenty-eight
pounds. but is sure in its action. and
has been used successfully by the
Paris fire department, where. in ad-
d,tion. portable electric lights with
flexible cables form part OF the
equipment. and thus allow firemen to
prnetrate dark and smoky rooms and
cellars to save life or cut of gas or
electricity. or perform some other use
fui duties In mines the apparatus
is valuable in case OF accidents due to
fre.damp or explosion, and 1t is com
ing into extensive use for this pu--

HAS street superintendent Hanley

This question agitated the members
of the civil service commission at it's
session last evening and while some Of
the members were of the opinion that
when the council had decreed that n
crtain number of inspectors should be
used superintendent Hanley was act
ing without legal authority when he
arbitrarily reduced his force of inspec-

Street superintendent Hanley sent a
communication to the council Monday
stating that in order to reduce the ex-
penses in his department he had dis
charged a number of laborers, hand
sweepers, sprinklers and three inspec-
tors. One of the three inspectors ap-
peared before the board of commission
ers yesterday in an effort to have that
body take some action looking to his

the board agreed that It was a deli

The Monday issue of the San Bernar-
dino Free Press is possibly the most
unique newspaper that has ever been
circulated in Southern California, 1t
is printed upon one side of a sheet of
paper the size of an ordinary hand

The cause for the small size of the
issue is that the buildinug of the Free
Press burned down and the edition
had to be printed on a job press. The
editor, II. c. Warner, was severely
burned in the fire, which was caused
by the explosion of a small oil heater

DEFICIT CROWS
DAILY LARGER
ALL DEPARTMENTS 0vERDRAW
THEIR ALLOWANCES
City Auditors Report Shows Gloomy
Outlook for the Next Few Months,
When Expenditures VIII Be
Exceptionally Heavy

The report of City Auditor Schwabe
Tor the five months of the fiscal year
ending November 30, shows a balance
on hand of $36,S46.27 of unexpended
money. On its face this appears to put
a quietus on the howl against the de-
flcit that has been raised, but these
figures are somewhat misleading.
The auditors report did not include
the salary of the street department for
November, which amounted to $21, 900,
and which must be deducted from the
amount on hand and an examination
OF the records In the office of the audi
tor show other interesting facts.
The estimate for the first five months
of the fiscal year was $500, 125.70 and of
this amount 1888, ,279.43 has been appro-
priated. This leaves a balance on hand
as shown by the auditors report, but
1t is through the process of arriving at
this estimate that the trouble comes.
The estimate for the first five months
Is figured as five-twelfths of the total
for the year. whereas the first five
months are really the lghtest in the
question of expense. 1t Is the succeed
ings months when the heavy expenses
must come 1t is during the next few
months that the fire hose must be paid
for, the garbage incinerator paid for
and other features that are extremely
costly will come out of what is left
for the next seven months.
Deficit Increases $1,000 Day
The deficit so far is only a provis-
ional one and whether or not the city
comes out even at the end of the year
will depend on the economies prac-
ticed. AT the present rate of expendi-
ture the finance committee figures that
the city is running in the hole at the
rate of $1,000 a day.
There still is 100000 under the esti-
mate left in the school fund, but the
board of education declares that the
expenses to come during the remainder
of the year will more than use UP this
balance and that only by the strictest
economy will be the board be able to
even up on the year.
The office of the city electrician is
the only one, according to the report
of the auditor, that is running even on
it's estimate.
In some Of the departments the
heavy months are over and nearly all
these departments show an overdraft,
but they expect to make up in succeed
ing months what they have overdrawn.
The principal overdrafts are as fol-
lows:

Are Children Born Liars?

Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.)
Madame LOmbroso is the wife of the
distinguished gentleman who elected
himself to the position of chief crini-
nologist of the world and who by re-
peated assertions, has not only brought
himself. but some others, to his way Of
thinking. Madame Lombroso has dis
covered-and makes public the fact
that children are born liars. But why
children? Why not say-as the Psalm
list said in his heart-that all men were
liars and born SO? 1t is hardly fair
FOR Madame Lombroso to saddle the
quality of natural mendacit on the
child unable to comprehend the nature
Of the accusation and unable to repcl
it. This may be said notwithstanding
the frank admission of Madame Lom-
broso that her own children are liars
IS gifted as the children of less fortu-
nate and less known individuals. But
sac might have tackled the adult liar
who Is somewhat abundant.
In Adams fall. we sinned air un-
doubtadly. But the fall is not, neces-
sarily. displayed only in the form of
mcndacity. THE child will steal
cake or an apple and then lie about
it, says Madame Lombroso, in the
that instance the lie is the secondary
consideration and not the first, which
is in the hooking of the cake or the
it, says Madame LOmbroso, but in
light Of her argument. ought rather to
have charged that children We're nat
ural born thieves. The lie, in fact,
concerning the cake or the apple is

by wholesome fear of 2 strenuous in
