TO, REMAIN AT HOME.
Mounted Men Of Police Department
While on Reserve.

Major Sylvester stated today that he had
under consideration a plan for allowing the
men of the mounted police service to do
their reserve duty at their homes. The plan
has not been completed as to details. but
it is expected to be put into effect within a
short time. 1t is designed to improve the
mounted service.
1t was found upon investigation that
many of the mounted men have telephones
In their homes. Others reside near tele-
reach them in that manner II wanted. For
that reason 1t is thought that the men can
start from their homes with their horses
and reach the place where they are needed,
just as we'll as going from the station
house, when the reserves are called out AS
many Of the men reside in the county.
where they do duty. they often would be
nearer where wanted than at the station.
In support Of the plan 1t is argued that It
will allow the men to remain longer at their
homes with their families. It will also per-
NIT them to take better care of their horses.
When they must put up the animals at the
station houses there Is often difficulty in
finding ROOM At home the horse would be
sure Of good care,
The men on reserve duty will be required
to remain at their homes during the reserve
period. In most Of the stations to which
mounted men are attached there Is at least
one mounted man on reserve out Of a Sec
ton On the nights that he Is on reserve
duty he must remain home.
The plan h expected to make the mount
ed service more attractive to men on the
force. and in that way. it is believed. 1t will
mark an important advance in the arrange
ment of the department.
The change viii benefit about forty-two
men and is expected to result In improved
and more efficient service both on the part
of the man and of his horse.

NARROWED ON ISLAND


CHARLOTTETOWN, p. E. l., March s.
Forty passengers of the government
steamer Stanley are marooned on Pictou Is
land. where they have been since last FRI
day. The people include members Of q
theatrical company and the Abegweit
hockey team.
The government steamer Stanley, which
II used In the winter to keep I'D communi-
cation between Prince Edward Island and
the mainland. got caught in q dangerous
Ice field about q mile of Pictou Island
last Friday. The vessel was helplessly
locked in the foe and in her efforts to force
q passage was laid over almost on her beam
ends. The situation was further compli-
Gated by the fact that the other govern
ment vessel, the Mimic. also was caught in
the Ice and NO other suitable ice-fghting
craft was available to effect a release.
On board the Stanley. besides the the
fourteen lumbermen. They were return
Ing home after weeks Of isolation In the
tonber camps, and not relishing the pros
pect OF remaining on the vessel for an in
dennite time, or landing ON Pictou Island.
q mile distant. these men set out to reach
the mainland, fifteen miles over the rugged
Ice Held. The day was bitterly cold and
the ice, tossed with great unevenness, so as
to make walking extremely dificult, was
swept oy strong wind. Undaunted by
these conditions the fourteen men struggled
on Tor hours. Their faces were badly frost
bitten and their bodies cut and bruised by
numerous falls. and when. at nightfall.
they reached the mainland, each Of the
fourteen was in q pitiable condition.
In the meantime the forty passengers re-
naming on the vessel decided to take
refuge on Pfctou Island. Clambering over
the ice they were received Hospitality by
the islanders who number about $50. 1t has
been impossible to bring them ashore since
then, but it Is thought that the islanders
mad sufficient stock of provisions to last
until the party can be taken of.
The unexpected increase in the islands
winter population was welcomed by the ma
tives as break in the dreary monotony of
their isolation, and the long days and
nights have been enlivened by the novelty
OF the strangely assorted "exiles'' and fish
ermen, athletes and actors intermfngled to
while away the hours waiting.
The Stanley was not released from her
position until yesterday. when she managed
TO reach Georgetown. p. E. I. Sixty feet Of
her rail was carried away and several Of
her plates dented.
She was unable to reach Pictou Island to
take of her passengers.

NO PAINT IN CELLAR.

In discussing the cause OF the Are i'm the
basement OF the paint store of Warren 4
Dyer. 1913 Pennsylvania avenue northwest,
where about 1850 damage was done yestsr-
oay. Mr.. p. s. Warren said today:
There was no paint in the cellar where
the nre was. The fire occurred In connec-
uon with the heating plant connected with
the building. and not In any property be-
longing to Warren & Dyer. nor had Warren
q Dyer anything to do with the matter
more than they suffered loss by having
live hose carried through their store.
we make these statement for the rea-
son that the general idea Is a paint store
Is dangerous; while We know any ordinary
drug. millinery or dry goods store has even
greater elements OF danger than a place
where the infiammable articles are In sealed
cans and closed tanks. making fire improb-
able unless ignited from intense heat"

Application for License Denied.

The application Of Robert .Kearney for Q
bar room license at 80 N street southeast
was denied by the excise board today after
a long hearing. The refusal was based upon
the fact that a license was only recently
granted for bar room in the same block
in which Mr. Kearney desires to locate, and
on the objection of the police department.
Among those who appeared to oppose the
granting Of the license were Rev. Walter
Myer, pastor of st. Stephens Episcopal

bert E Shoemaker, attorney for the Anti
saloon League; Charles Weller. secretary Of
the Associated Charities, and a number Of
