FIRE-FIGHTING APPARATUS.
Device to Permit Respiration for an Hour
in Room Filled with Smoke.

Life saving and fire fighting promise to be
revoutionized by the introduction Of a respra-
tory apparatus invented by Charles E. Chaplin
mechanical draughtsnan of Berkeley, Cal With
this device Chaplin claims the fireman will be
able to enter smoke filed building and breathe
with ease and comfort in binding smoke and
choking gas which before would have brought
suffocatton in five minutes. The supply Of air
comes from cylinders strapped on his back
The idea of the apparatus IS simple. and It
seems wonder that It was not thought Of many
years ago. Light. weighing but twehty-three
pounds il does not impede the fireman. A can
vas hood lined with oiled silk covers his head.
On his back is strapped the air cylinder. divided
into three chambers. A rubber tube conducts
the fresh air TO the headpiece, the fireman
breathes this with easy regularity, and the e1-
hale passes out through valve before the
mouth
Around the head is q strap to prevent the In
rush of smoke or fumes The cylinders carry
air enough to last the man an hour and allow
him to regulate the pressure al will. II Is fxed
however, so that no frightened impulse VIII al
low the fireman TO waste his air in a short time
He can get more than will just satisfy his
lung capacity. The contrivance can De placed
on the back in twenty seconds, and there seems
to be no possible way by which IL can get out
of order and leave its bearer helpless. The small
chamber in the middle is sort OF safety device
allowing the fireman to call on this supply only
after the other chambers are exhausted
Tests have been made in this city by Y. T.

MATERNAL INSTINCT OF FISH.
How the Bass Look After Their Eggs and

SOME LAWS AGAINST NOISES.

The laws against noises for the enforcement
of which the police are held responsible are to
be found in the revised ordinances OF the city.

and begin bawling: Put up yer clo' lines. Put

,,e.ce of the neighborhood in a way which should
cost him a SO fine. On q proper complaint the
noiice could arrest him. Such soliciting Of bust
ness by clothesline hangers is expressly forn!d-
den. The exact letter OF the ordinance reads:

TO MAKE WAR ON NUIsANCEs.

AS the blasting has disturbed the people Of
the West Side more than any other noise, it
has been the first to be attacked. Yet the fight
for quiet is by no means to end here. The asso-
citation is preparing to take up the cudgels
against the streetcar and elevated railroad
companies for using fat carwheels, against
hucksters shouting at unseemly hours, against
hurdy-g11rdy musicians who play at hours that
are too near bedtime, against hoodluns shout
ing and running in the streets and against sim
liar disturbers of the peace. They intend 10
make the upper West Side an ideal place 10 live
in.

New Workers are forever complaining ABOUT
the noises which aflict them. hut usually they
do nothing to stop them The majority seem to
believe that all the racket in this city is newt
able and they even exhibit d certain pride in
their ability to live in such din. especially
when country cousins come to town and ex-
Claim:
oh what slambang town.
How can you stand it?'
DO you ever Sleep"
why it's worse than whole barnyard fun
OF guinea hens!'
But when a citizen communes with his inner
self in the dead of night, having been awak-
ened from a sound sleep by the putting of an
engine the footing OF tugboat or the rub
a-dub-dub oe the fat wheel of a trolley car he
realizes that his visitors from country solitudes
knew what they were talking about. He makes
up his mind actually to start fight against the
invaders of his repose: but alas, he invariably
drops his campaign before he begins it He
doesn't know how so about it.
Public spirited citizens who have interested
themselves most in efforts to repress the dis
turbers OF the peace say II cannot be done by
citizens individually and spasmodcally. They
say that the fight for quiet must he backed by
local organizations. which shall work continu
ously and persistently for the enforcement of
the laws
The example Of the Morningside and Riverside
Heights Association in making warfare recently
against blasting on the Jersey shore is pointed
out as an example worthy of imitation in every
other part Of the city. Consisting ii does of
property owners and real estate men. all of
whom are eager 10 promote the hest interests Of
the upper West Side. this organization has an
influence and power which it is said would soon
stop the blasting were it not in another State
Because the nuisance has its origin in New-Jer-
sey however the association has been baked by
various LEGAL obstacles. It has employed coun-
sci. however. and is ready to fight the blasters
through the last court.
