PREVENT LOSSES BY FIRE

The annual loss in property destroyed
in the United States by fire amounts to
over $3.50, 900 and is largely due to
our national carelessness.
With this sum, which is annually
turned into an ash heap, we could build
every year a new Panama canal and
have millions to spare.
Property owners are directly interest
ed, for they pay every dollar of loss in
sured, and in doing this pay five to
eight times more for their insurance
than is paid in Germany, France or
Great Britain.
What are the causes of this extraor-
dinarily large fire loss and is there any
way to remedy it? This question vitality
concerns You-your insurance rates de-
pend upon it.
The insurance companies spend money
endeavoring to educate the public, but
the Indifference with which this is re-
ceived and in general the antagonism to
suggestions made, offers little induce
ment to the company.
The appalling waste Of property by
fire in the United States is shown in the
report of the fire department of New
York City for 1906. 1t was a normal
year in fires and yet the department
responded to II, 1872 alarms, or an ave-
rage of more than thirty-three fires for
every day in the year. In Paris and
London, the only cities with which New
York can be compared in size, such a
record would provoke national amaze
ment and alarm. Paris has only two
or three times as many fires in year
as New York has in day, and London
about ten times as many in a year as
New York has in a day.
In three boroughs of New York, Man
haitian, the Bronx and Richmond, the
origin Of every fire during one year was
inquired into, and here are some of the
causes in pure carelessness: To care
lessnes8 with matches, 887; to children
playing with matches or fire, 228; care
lessness in the use Of lighted cigars and
cigarettes caused 401 fires; bonfres,
brush fires, etc., are charged with 282;
carelessness with candles, tapers, ETC.,
PIG; lamps, kerosene, ETC., upsetting or
exploding, 161. No wonder our nation
al ash heap is the scandal Of civilization.
If the greatest and most compactly
and safely built metropolis of the Unit
ed States can be at the mercy of SO
much carelessness and recklessness, is
there any wonder that rates are high?

of a fire is interesting but Improbable

wait for post-mortem examination to

Fire in the Collingwood school near
Cleveland, Ohio, broke out March 4,

Perhaps the fire made you consider
what you would do to prevent similar
disaster. If it did, then be sure that
the reforms you institute go to the
bottom of the trouble. Remember that
the only sure way to prevent loss by
fires is by preventing fires.

TENNESSEE CANTALOUPES.

Cantaloupes are essentially a poor

year brought him about $4,000.
"The men having only few acres,

Perhaps there is no crop where in

He declares he did not know the MUIR

at length and has failed to satisfy his
inquisitors that he has told the truth.
Despite his protestations that he new

the day of the tragedy.

and Frank Smith, the farm hand. are
again to be questioned by District At

appearing at the Majestic theater af-
forded too liberal display of her low
er limbs. Joseph McC1oskey, a well
known elderly resident went before
Justice Walter Pierce and filed
a chage of public indecency against
the audacious actress. There were a
hundred men and boys down there on
the street watching her and making
indecent remarks. Such things as
those, you know, tend to moral ruin
said McCloskey TO Justice Pierce. Miss
Turner was later arrested at the the
ater. She was highly indignant and
declared her intention or not only
fighting the charge but taking action
against her accuser.
