DISCIPLINE WAS PERFECT
School Children, Surprised by Fire
Alarm, March Out of Building
in Fifty Seconds.

At this time, when the terrible dis
: aster that occurred recently In the Col.
lingwood schoolhouse fire has set on
foot anxious investi cations In nearly
every city schoolhouse in the United
States, the people Of Dallas may feel
justly proud Of the discipline in their
public school, which makes the occur
renee OF a similar catastrophe in this
city practically impossible.
The practice Of holding fire drills
frequently and at such times as to
take the children completely by sur
prise, has been carried on since the
new schoolhouse was completed sew
eral years ago, and the drill system
has now become well nigh perfect In
its working. A test made this
morning by Direc tors Loughary and
Coad proved this to be true in a most
practical and convincing manner.
The visiting party arrived at the
schoolhouse at about 10 clock when
the mornings work was well under
way. The halls were completely
deserted and only the subdued hum
OF voices, or the moving of feet behind
the closed doors of the recitation rooms
told OF the presence OF single soul in
the big building. The visitors sta
toned themselves In one corner of the
hall on the first floor, and as one of
them took out his watch and prepared
to time the drill, the janitor stepped to
the gong rope and gave it a series of
short, quick strokes, filling the halls
with the rapid clangor Of the fire
alarm.
In an Instant the big building awoko
% life. Issuing 10 double file and at
iouble quick time from their recitation
looms, the children swung onto the
broad stairways four abreast and 80
passed down and out from the build
ng. The movement was SO rapid
hat the smaller children were prac-
ically all out when the column from
he upper rooms reached the first I
oor, and every pupil was safely on
he sidewalk by the time the hand of
he watch had registered a bare so
econds.
A little lad from Room A ran
own in front OF the line, and opened
he big double doors and eight of the
arger boys, delegated as flremen, had
le hose In the second floor and In the
asement unreeled and ready for
ction before the pupils were all out Of N
10 building.

The Supreme Court OF Nevada In
State VS.. Hennessy, 80 Pacific Reporter,
221, defines the expression, Il am all

wounded to bystanders, and holds that
under such circumstances the express
sion may be taken to mean that the
speaker considers his life is practically
at its end.
The Iowa Supreme Court decides an
interesting point of insurance law in
New York Life Insurance Co. VS.. Chit
tenden & Eastman, 112 Northwestern
Reporter, 96. An insured had been alb
sent and unheard OF for more than
seven years, and an administrator had
been appointed for his estate. A de-
mand was made on the insurance COM
pany for the insurance, and 1t was paid.
Afterwards it was discovered that in
sured was not dead. Thereupon the
insurance company brought this action
to recover the payments made, but, as
these payments had been made volun-
tarily by the company, the court held
that it was not entitled to recover.
A case illustrating the disadvantage
of substituting statutory enactments
for the common law in declaring sub
stantive rights is In re De Cigaran's
Estate, 80 Pacific Reporter, S33, recent
ly decided by the Supreme Court Of
California. In California there is a law
which declares that where an illegiti-
mate child, not acknowledged by his
father, dies intestate, without issue, his
decease, TO her heirs. In the case at
bar this law seems to work substan-
tial injustice, for 1t is held that the
property of an illegitimate daughter,
not acknowledged by her father, passes,
ON her death intestate and without is
sue leaving surviving a husband, TO
another illegitimate child of her pre-
deceased mother by another father, who
had not acknowledged her as his child,
and not to the surviving husband.
A case Of more than ordinary inter-
est is the case Of Kansas VS.. Colorado
81 Supreme Court Reporter( 655, 206
u. s. 46, 81 L. Ed. $50, recently de-
icided by the United States Supreme
Court. In this case the State Of Kan
sas sought to enjoin such use of the
waters Of the Arkansas river in the
State Of Colorado as would diminish
the flow of waters Of the river In the
State of Kansas to the injury Of the
people thereof, and the United States
sought to intervene on the ground that
the flow Of the river was subject to the
superior authority and supervisory
control Of the national government
The right Of Intervention of the ma
tional government was denied on the
ground that the reclamation of arid
lands is not one OF the powers granted
to the national government, and the
lnjunctive relief sought by Kansas was
denied without prejudice, as no sub
stantial injury to the interests Of the
people of Kansas had been shown.

hot washing given.

Fancy Blouse Waist,

odd blouse. This one is adapted to
both purposes and would be exceeding
ly charming made from any of tho
fashionable thin materials. In the IL
lustration crepe de Chine is combined
with chemisette of lace and is trimmed
with heavy applique. while the sleepes
are finished with dainty, little bands
and frills of Valenciennes lace. The
blouse, however. would be charming In

chiffon and all similar materials and
also in the fashionable filet and en-
broidered nets. The soft folds produced
by the fulness at the shoulders render
