NEW DEVICE FOR AUTO DRIVERS.
Silver Tones of Trumpet Used te
 Make Pedestrians Jump.

The salesman displayed silver horn similar to a trumpet->a silver trumpet with three steps.
 Tn automobilism this is now the only thing" he said The weird siren wall, the gruff honk -honk. the shrill whistle. all have been superseded by the silver note of this trumpet which you blow yourself"
 He put it to his lips and blew . reveille.
 You must blow 1t yourself" he said. The instrument is not to be worked with a rubber ball. It must be put to the lips.
 Something like coaching, eh? |? Only, in coaching it is the groom who blows the horn. but in automobiling the owner blows it, taking great pride in his skill
 All over France, as the great shin. ing cars rush along, you hear brief snatches of beautiful musical phrases. and you see. beside the chauffeur a proud young man in a sable coat play ing his trumpet with passionate ab. sorption.
 Sometimes it is a girl who handles the trumpet. That is indeed a pretty thing to see-a rosy, yellow haired girl. let us say, in lustrous black seal skin, holding the trumpet to her red lips, and giving you. as she goes play. ing by, roguish glance out of her clear blue eyes"

Scotch Barrister's Remarkable Care
 for Friends Safety.

wet and witty Scotch barrister one Saturday encountered an equally bacchanalian judicial friend in the course of walk to Leith. Remem- bering that he had good leg of nut ton roasting for dinner, he invited his friend to accompany him home, and they accordingly dined together. After dinner was over, wine and cards com menced; and as the two friends were alike fond of each of these recrea. tions. neither ever thought of remind
 ing the other of the advance of time till the next day as 1t happened, about a quarter before Il o'clock. The judge then rising to depart, the host walked behind him to the outer door. with a candle in each hand, by way of show Ing him out. 'Tak' care. my lord talk care," cried the kind host, most anxiously holding the candles out of the door into the sunny street, along which the people were pouring to church. talk care; there's twa steps"

To press a joy from little things From feet that fall in time From daylong silent fashionings Of some heart-hidden rhyme; From shapes of leaves and clouds and

One fragile flame. so pale and slim, To gleam on grayer years That is one way of Joy, I know, Yet I desire. desire. To go the way q god might go Through Love and Life and Fire!

BOARDING HOUSE GEOMETRY.

"A scientific friend of mine has drawn up boarding house geometry that strikes me as being noteworthy" says youth with third-story front" Some of his definitions run as fol lows:
 T. All boarding houses are the same boarding houses
 "2. Boarders in the same boarding house and on the same floor are equal to one another in the matter of price, but not in the matter of outlook.
 "3. A single room Is that which has no parts and no magnitude
 "4. The landlady of boarding house is parallelogram-an oblong angular figure which can not be de scribed, but is equal to anything.
 D. All the other rooms being taken. single room is said to be a double room.
 Among postulates and propositions the following are worthy of considera- tion
 Il. A pie may be produced any mum Der of times.
 7. The landlady may be reduced to her lowest terms by series of prop ositions.
 5. A beeline may be made from one boarding house to another.
 "4. The clothing of a boarding house bed, although extended indefinitely in both directions, will never meet.
 70. Any two meals at boarding house are together less than one square meal."-Harper's Weekly

MATTRESSES ON FIRE.
Stock In Factory Considerably
Damaged This Morning.

Fire did considerable damage in
the store of the New York Mattress
factory in the Porter building ut 25O

liam Il. Brooks, proprietor Of the
building, while thawdng out water
pipe in the cellar, accidentally set
fire to a mattress with the torch lie
was using For the next hour the
department was busy endeayoring to
extinguish the blaze. Although the
firemen confined the fire to the cellar,
1t was impossible to save any Of the
large supply Of mattresses stored
there. The smoke came out in volumes
and Notwithstanding that the fire.
men had two streams and at times
three, playing on the blaze, the smoke
was binding for almost an hour. At
one time the fire threatened to come
up and get at the store itself, and
succeeded in getting through one corr
ner, but the blaze just poked Its nose
up when the firemen smothered ID
with a fresh stream Of water. A few
of the tenants on the upper floor be-
came frightened when the alarm OF
fire went through the house, and one
man came down the fire escape on the
west side of the building. 1t was
about ten minutes to eleven that Israel
Horinbein, son of the proprietor, en-
tered the store and the smell Of smoke
came to his nostrils.

Although there was not much smoke
in evidence when the firemen reached
the store, a short time later 1t came
out so densely that the men holding
the nozzles had to be relieved every
few minutes. A cellar pipe, the re-

in a fire where the smoke is thick,
were used with good effect
The store is divided into three parts,
a solid wall running between, and for
this reason 0ne-nalf of it was not dam
aged Although the stock in the cell
lar will undoubtedly be of very little
value. as it was soaked with water,
the stock in the upper part of the
store was not damaged much by either
the. smoke or water. The cellar was
flooded, as this was the only way of
extinguishing the smouldering mat

While the firemen We're at work the
trolley service was affected and pas
sengers had to transfer. They left
the cars at Maple street and had to
walk to North Elm street. All vehi-
cles also were prevented from pass
ing, as the hose extended across the
street.
The Porter building seems to be a
jonah for fires. The loss is estimated
at So on the building and $500 on
the stock.

Had Been Especially Assigned
For Trial To-Day.

The case of the former police officer
Miles McNiff against the city to be
reinstated on the force has again
been put back. This time 1t loses
its place on the court trial list and
1t is said it may go off for the term.
About two weeks ago it was specially
assigned for trial for to-day and 1t
was to follow the case Of Henes
against Musler which expected to
close this afternoon late, or early
tomorrow forenoon. The cause of
the present disappointment is said to
be due to the necessary presence Of
City Attorney John p. Kellogg in
Hartford in some railroad matters.
Anyhow, McNiff is previously put
about and is beginning to think all
manner of things about law courts,
McNiff claims he was unjustly re-
tired from the police force and was
unjustly denied the assistance of a
lawyer. The case of John M. Joy AN
appeal from an assessment of benefits
and damages accruing from the lay
out of Division street has gone over
also.
