Mortuary.

A shock was given to this commun
itv last Saturday morning when the
announcement was made that Mrs.
Fannie Lewis, widow of the late Robert
f. Lewis, had died during the night at
the late residence, 412 Washington
street. She had retired the previous
evening in her usual health, which
for some time had been quite precar-
ious, but not exciting suspicion that
her span OF life might not be extended
yet for years. The immediate cause
OF her death was paralysis of the
heart.
Mrs. Lewis was a woman of many
virtues and excellent qualities, and it
would be difficult to find words which
would be a exaggeration of the high
regard in which she was held by a
large circle of friends and acqnaint-
ances. Indeed her praises were sung
by many other to whom she was per
sOnally unknown, who had been the
recipients of many kindly acts at her
hands. She delighted in doing good
by stealth and many ale the benefci-
aries of her generosity who had no
claim upon her whatever, Favored
with an abundance Of this worlds
goods she took pleasure in conferring
some of It's blessings upon others.
The fountain in the square at the in
tersection ii West Main and Washing
ton streets. and the soldiers monu-
ment in the city park are lasting evil
dences of the public spirit of herself
and her late husband, which will
cause them to be held in grateful re-
membrance by our citizens. Nor were
their acts OF liberality confined to Wa
tertown for they had in recent years
shown their public spirit and kind
heartedness by handsome endow-
ment of an old peoples home at Glenn's
Falls. n. Y, not forgetting also their
former home in Iowa where they re-
sided before coming here.
Mrs. Lewis was in her 81st year,
having been born in Glenn's Falls. N.
Y. Sept. 3. 1925. She was the mother
OF two children. son and daughter,
neither of whom are now living. The
son. Clifton, died in 1894 and Hattie,
the daughter, in 1868.
The funeral was held Tuesday after
noon at clock at the home on Wash

EXPLOSION TELLS OF DANGER,
Means of Giving Alarm of Fire Before
Much Damaue is Done.

The essential fundamental requisite
of any system of fire protection is an
early alarm. or indication of the pres
enca of abnormal temperatures, even
tefore fire actually breaks out in
flames. Prompt indication of fire gen
orally means it's early extinction and
an audible signal of some sort is the
only one that can be relied upon invar
iably to attract attention. A novel
alarm of this class that has been
worked out in detail by an inventor
says the Baltimore American, provides
for denotating a Illuminating charge
whenever excessive heat becomes ap
parent in any part of mill or store
house. This explosion attracts the
attention of the Waterman and leads
lin. to look for the source of trouble
and in this way may avert disastrous
fires. The illuminate can be disposed
in any convenient receptacle, metallic
and waterproof if necessary. The de.
tonation is effected by the release OF
a spring coil, or other resilient mem
Der, brought about by the fusing OF
an alloy which normally holds the
spring or striker, or the burning of
conbustible bond. One of the features
of the device is the ease with which
it may be applied to any point, requir.
ing no connection with any wires,
pipes or other devices. 1t may be ap.
piled in great number of places at
slight expense and wherever the dan.
ger is greatest. There is nothing to
get out of order and if it should be.
come accidentally discharged the ex.
plosion that would follow is a notifica.
ton of the existence of some trouble.

PARAGRAPHS FROM PANGUITcH.

The metropolis of Garfield county
continues to furnish much newsy mat
ter, as a glance at the columns of the
local paper will demonstrate. Said
news items are served up in such
unique fashion that we are constrained
to again reproduce some of the more
important ones. Miss Alice Syrett,
who, it will be remembered, was poi
soned eating duttered bread last
week, is not so bad as reported, the
following amended report of her con-
dition being published:
In last weeks issue we gave what
was supposed to be the facts in the
case of the poisoning case of Alice Sy-
rett, we have since learned that she
had, had noticing to eat that had any
poison in neither was there any poi
son out inthe mill and the case while
it was one of poisoning was due in
any way to any one, but came from
the gastriclic juices which the attend
ing physician says may be due to her
having ate some cheese or even drank
some milk, which caused it as poi
sions do come ftom such causes.
All of which makes us feel glad.
We seriously advise Alice to have
something done for her "gastriclic
juices" so that in future If she wants
to eat cheese or drink milk she can
do so without fear of serious results.
Owing to the great distance from
the place of happening, we are un-
able to offer but one explanation for
the conduct of Brose Fotheringham,
as related in the last of the two sue
ceeding paragraphs. He must have
been driven to drink by the spelling
of the brides name. Read and see
