Mrs Allen made the balloon in which
the ascension was made, and Mr.. Allen

"The Illuminating gas furnished I'm this

I'VE felt sure that Mr.. Allen would land
on his feet all right. though the dispatch
from Scituate yesterday gave us reason
for apprehension. as we knew that he
must have been headed i'm that direction.
I'VE knew, however. that he would never

POLICE PROTECTION.

street the night before the Fourth called
attention 10 the fact that there was not
sufficient police protection available that
evening. II seems hardly conceivable that
anyone would believe that the city could
be properly protected at that time with
but four men on duty outside OF The sta
tion. Calls were made at several times
during the night for men In different
places but there was no one to send and
the only help that could be given was
by telephoning to some central point
along the beat of one OF the officers and
giving him instructions to go TO some
other place. With no police signals in the
city and but four men on duty during the
worst night of the entire year II is a
great wonder that nothing more serious
occurred than few broken heads and
limbs.
II Is n nexcelent idea for the present
city council to try to run things economi-
cally Certainly there Is need for the
saving OF money somewhere. but II Is
pretty poor policy to run things In such
a niggardly way that the police should
be crippled.
