FOR PROTECTION
OF OLD FIREMEN
Chief Ward FavOTS FOrma.
ton Of Exempt Volunteer
Firemen'S Association
TO CALL GENERAL MEETING

It is probable that during the coming
year there viii be formed by the fire.
men of the city an organization to be
known as the Exempt Volunteer Fire
mems Association of Wilmington, Della
ware, the object Of which will be bene-
fetal as well as social.
For some time William Ward. chief
of the Fire Department, has been
working quietly along this line. the re-
suit being that he has met with much
announcement from members Of all
the companies, both combine" and
'anti-cOmbine."
In order that plans may be perfected
and the proposition put I'm some def
mite shape, Chief Ward will request
every company in the city to appoint
a delegation. limited probably to three
members each. which win meet, joint
ly, during the present month. in the
Friendship house and discuss the ques-
ton thoroughly 1t is the desire Of
Chief Ward that at this meeting views
on the subject be expressed freely, as
If it is decided to form such an or
ganization a committee will be named
to arrange details and take such pre-
liminary steps as are necessary toward
the formation of a permanent body
The primary object Of the formation
of the Exempt Volunteer Firemen's
Association is it may care for those
firemen, in case Of necessity, who have
outlived their usefulness as active fire.
fighters but who still are members Of
a company and have its interests at
heart
There are in Wilmington to-day a
number of old firemen who are unable
to gather about the hose nozzle in case
of fire, but whose hearts are in accord
with the efforts Of the boys" in time
.of service. These are the men that the
present active fremen Of to-day seek
to provide for in time of possible need.
Other Cities Organized
In other cities where volunteer fire
departments exist or have existed, as
.sociations similar to the one proposed
here are carried on successfully, and
it is the belief Of Chief Ward that such
IAN organization would prove successful
here.
In the event OF its formation. those
.hremen who receive salaries from their
respective companies would be assess
ed so much per month. while others
who are members. but who receive no
pay, will be asked to contribute accord
ling to their means, as time might come
when they too. would be beneficiaries.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2.-It isn't every day
that a patriotic citizen buys a Colonial
relic for $4,000 and presents it to the
State in order that a valuable and his
toric landmark may be preserved as
precious heritage for pcsterity. Such is
tho benevolent task which a nameless
patriot has set for himself in project to
purchase the old Phillipse Manor from the
city Of Yonkers and present It to the
state Of New York for maintenance by
the American Scenic and Historic Preser-

Yonkers Common Council, which now oc-

the bee soon loses its activity when

JULY 8. 1907.
Jersey WOMEN FAIL AS UNDER
TAKERS
Faint in Practical Tests Before State
Board of Examiners.

Woman Is 4 dismal failure as an I'm
dertaker in New Jersey according to
the State Board OF Embalming that has
been in existence a little less than a
year. During that time few, II any, Of
the female applicants for licenses have
met the practical requirements.
As theoretical undertaken woman
has no superior, not only as to the best
method OF preparing bodies fol burial,
but also IN cmbalming a corpse, &C
coldihg to modern requirements, so
that il will be prescntablc, even at the
expiration OF period Of six months
Since the State Board, created by an
act OF the Legislature Of a year ago, 10y
which il was intended to place praeti
toner on a professional basis, began
work, numerous examinations have been
held IN different sections OF the State
and great many have gone before the
Board Among them have been per
haps a score OF women.
These examinations have always been
started ly questions on the theoretical
work, and so we'll informed were the
women that there was grave fear that
the male members of the profession
would be obliged 10 compete with
members OF the far sex As matter
Of fact there was no little disquietude
among those already IN the business,
who could see that IN many eases a
female would be preferred TO male
undertaken.
Questions on the best methods for
preventing the spread of contagious
disease to other members OF the family,
what arteries 10 take up and what
fluids 10 inject and the thousand and
one details were met by the candidates
10 IltfleetlOll
Male members who were tested were
found to be below the seeming stan=
dard ON theoretical work set by women
After the theoretical work the candl-
dates were taken TO the morgue, where
real subjects were to be used for dem
onstratlon. The men went through
with flying colors. When the FIRST wo-
man came up she made an inclslon for
injecting the cmbalming fluid Mem
bers of the Board gathered around her
10 see If the work was being done right
AT the first cut the woman sank back
fMntlng into the arms OF the examiners.
That was at the first session of the
Board. Since then the history has
been repeated in the case of nearly ev-
cry woman who has come up. As Il
result the members of the Board have
come To the conclusion that the male
members OF the profession need have
no fears that their territory will be en-
eroaehed upon.

ELY LINER LOSES LIFE
BY NOT KNOWING SIGNAL

ELY, New, Feb. 23.-Failure to un.
derstand the signals used at the Star
Pointer shaft resulted in the death
yesterday afternoon Of Steve Dotol-
lex, an Austrian, who had been en-
since February /. It was his duty to
fill up the buckets in the shaft. The
Austrian wanted to have the bucket
lowered and gave the signal to raise,
which was one bell The engineer mo-
ticed that he had encountered an OBJ
stacle and waited for another signal,
AS no further signals were given an
investigation was made and the Aus
trian 3 body was found crushed bet
ween the crosshead and the timbers.
Justice Cartwright visited the
scene Of the accident, and summoned
jury composed Of miners at the
Ruth When the evidence was intro
duced the jury brought in the verdict
that Dotolick' 3 carelessness was the
cause of his death.
Dotolick was native of Austria,
and had worked around Ely for about
a year. He leaves wife and seven
children in his native land. He was
about 40 years Of age. The funeral
