Two Battleships Leave the

Men.

New York, Dec. 21.-The i'm

the battleship Illinois and a fireman
on the battle ship Missouri, broke up

JAMS fleet Friday and Friday night
these two armor clads are steaming

Porto Rico, where the patients will
be landed and placed in hospitals in
the hope of saving their lives.
c. II. Montgomery, who handles
coal in the fire room of the Illinois
is suffering from pr6uro pneumonia
and B. Northway, fireman on the
Missouri is stricken with peritontls.
Both are critically Ill and require ex-
ipert medical attention.
AS a consequence the two warships
under orders of Admiral Evans de.
ltached themselves from the fleet and
hurried away on their errands o
mercy. 1t is expected that both will
rejoin the feet tomorrow.

The mixing Of innammables and
flames in the store window is temp
tation to the Christmas buyer and to
the fire god as well.
SO great is the fire loss from the
holiday dressing of show windows
that an annual warning to mer-
chants Is justified. There Is danger
of loss oflife, too, from panic in a
crowd of present purchasers.
Leaves, wheat and cornstalks, even
evergreens, soon become dry enough
to be infiammable in the temperature
OF an enclosed show window. Straw
and the fancy papers used for decora-
tive purposes, notably the Christmas
bell, are easily ignited. More dan
gerous than all, except cellulod or
naments, is cotton batting, although
il looks as pure as the beautiful
snow, 1t is used to represent.
Cotton is often spread over con-
siderable surface in making a winter
scene and If it be ignited a flash
covers it. Then i. burns with great
heat for each fiber has in it tube
full of oxygen to support combustion.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Electric bulbs are. to be sure. the
best of all lights for show windows
but one of the may become hot
enough to fire the pretty papers. cot
ton fancy goods or any one of the
hundred pretty things made from cell
1uliod. A merchant noticing the
slightest char on any material from a
light bulz should take fright If a
pun OF air strikes where a bulb is
charring any fabric a blaze is pro-
duced. A paper petticoat on an in
candescent lamp is particularly dan
gerous.

LAVELLE SETS LAST BRAKE
Union Pacific switchman slips on Icy
Car and Falls Under
wheels.

t. ]. LRvelle, switchman for the Union
Pacific, had both lower limbs badly
crushed about a. m. Thursday when he
fell from the top of moving freight car
In the Union Pacific freight yards and was
run over by the car. He was taken to st.
Joseph's hospital and is in a critical condi-
ton, II will be necessary to amputate
his left leg and his recovery is considered
extremely doubtful
Lavelle was making what is termed a
flying switch" and climbed on top OF the
car to set the brakes after the car had
been released from the switch engine and
was travelling slowly from the momentum
received. The top of the car was covered
with seet and ice, making the footing
very precarious Lavelle tried to set the
brake at one end OF the car and the brake
wheel suddenly broke. His feet slipped on
the icy roof of the car when the brake
gave way and he fell TO the tracks below
directly In front of the moving car La
velle tried TO save himself from injury by
cramping his legs, but the wheels passed
over his right foot and leg, severing the
heel from his foot, and then passed d.
rectly over his left thigh. Both wheels Of
the car passed over the PROSTATE body Of
the man and he was unconscious when
picked up. Amputation of the injured
member has been deferred on account Of
I.avelle's weak condition, as he was very
low Thursday afternoon.
1.avelle is about IS years Of age and mar
rled. He lived with his wife at l716A Jack
son street. He has been in the employ of
the Union Pacific company as a switchman
for several years. but had been working
nights only few weeks
