afternoon saw small boy appear at one of the
attic windows and descend to the ground on one
Of the new fire escapes which were installed ut
the White House to-day.
The boy was Archie Roosevelt, who recently
had such a narrow escape from death from
diphtheria. He watched with intense interest
the workrnen putting up the fire escape ma
chimes. learned all about the theory OF the mech
aAism before the apparatus was fastened TO the
walls beside the garnet windows, and as soon as
the men annOupced the Job completed pleaded
TO be allowed to try it. The apparatus consists
OF long chain, which is paid out slowly from
reel fastened 20 the wall. On the free end Of
the chain is a belt. Archie was immensely
pleased with the ride 10 the ground, and per-
suaded the men 20 reel up the chain. and thus
allow him TO make the trip to the roof Then he
took one more ride to the pavement
There was no necessity for placing fire es-
capes upon the White House. for il IS nearly
