NEED OF SCHOOL FIRE DRILL
Teach Pupils to Scale Ladders and
 Ropes, Says Ex-Fire Captain.

A. l.. Mckenzie a former Cleveland fire captain, who for sixteen years taught school children fire drills, says the Collinwood school disaster is like ly to occur in any city unless the pres ent method of training pupils to escape from fires is changed. "The children of the Collinwood school" said he, according to what I hear, lacked the proper training. In my time the cap tain of fire district visited the Cleve- land schools once a week during re- cess and taught the children to climb down scaling ladders and ropes, and this method was reduced to a science among the children.
 '"The method utilized in Pittsburg and elsewhere in drilling the children up and down a hall, through one door and out another, is absurd When a fire breaks out they immediately be- come panic stricken. They should be taught to scale ladders and ropes."
 The immediate inspection of every school building in Greater Pittsburg and such action to safeguard the lives of pupils and teachers as this inspec- tion suggests are among the local eff fleets of the Collinwood disaster. In one building alone the changes already in dicated will cost more than $60,000.

The Newest Airship.

In the course of lecture recently in Berlin on "The Conquest of the Air" Count Zeppelin contended that the rigid system was the only one practica- ble for dirigible balloons. He said that the new airship which he had planned would be fitted with sleeping rooms. Under favorable atmospheric condi- tions he expected to be able to reach Constantinople from Berlin in thirty hours. The inventor also submitted calculation to show that an airship service could be carried on between the German capital and Copenhagen at profit of 10 per cent on the outlay. This computation was based on a fare of 90 shllllngs and an average of twen- ty-five passengers per trip.
