Carrying out this idea, the geolog-
ical survey, through Its technologic
branch, some time g completed a
series of preliminary fire tests of build
ing materials. which Will soon be
printed by the government in the form
Of a bulletin. The building materials

flames were forced by a blast of air
against one side of the material. After
two hours, in which the material was

from the furnace and the water turned
on from a hose to get the conditions

experience, when more than 300 homes
were devoured by the flames, is but a

lit seems difficult to make the peo-
pie believe that in 1907 fires in the
United States cost more than $780,
600 for every day in the year., an
annual tax of more han SIS for every
man, woman and child in the United
States. We are spending 81 900. 0OO, 600
a year on new buildings n construc-
ton work. Vile our fires cost $780,
100000. No other nation has such IN
u~nenviable record as this. Our fires
are costing from six to eight times as
much per capita as any country in
Europe. BY the total cost of fires l re-
fer not only to the actual destruction
of property. which amounted to S215,-
100000, but also to the cost of mainte-
nance of fire departments and the
amount of insurance paid over and
above the money returned to reim-
burSe owners of burned building s.
While we are wasting several times
as much property Del capita as Eu-
rope, we are also destroying IN these
fires five times as many lives as are
lost In the other countries. In 1906,
according to the United States census,
5000 persons died of burns and per-

ALUMNI WENT DOWN IN
DEFEAT BEFORE CADETS.

The base ball game at the Military
Institute yesterday afternoon between
che N. NJ. M. L. Alumni and the purely
cadet team Of the school was an in
teresting five-inning contest in which
the "old heads" went down in defeat
before the young bloods, five to two.
The game was full of features, but
the star was Cy Buntin, a cadet SUBJ
shutting for the Alumni in left field.
He made several sensational catches
and hit a three-bagger on which ne
ran home when a tumble was made in
re-laying 1t to the diamond. Bruegge-
mann made two nice catches back iof
second base. Arthur Stevens al l Alex
Ririe, of the Alumni team, made a
striking appearance every time they
went to bat.

Two divers who were sent down from
a boa to make the search signaled in

when they were on deck refused to

on the bottom. their feet weighted to
hold them down and keeping them
erect, there was a veritab BILE forest of
bodies, swaying with outstretched
hands as the waters moved them, in
an indescribably terrifying spectacle.

earth, perhaps even for discarded
beauties of the harem of whom he had
crown tired.

LESSONS IN
FIRE COST

Federal experts who are making a
study of building materials that will
best Withstand fire and who are there
fore taking a keen interest In the fire
losses as they are reported for the
whole Of the United States declare
that in spite Of all efforts toward bet
ter building conditions, the death and
destruction due to fires and conflagra-
tons In 1909 will eclipse all previous
records, with the exception of the
years in which the Baltimore and San
Francisco fires occurred.
They point to the fact that in six
teen days of April five big fires in diff
ferent parts of the United States re-
suited in a loss of Sc, OOo, 900, the death
of twenty persons, the injury of seven
teen and the rendering homeless of
more than 5000. The greatest of these
fires was at Fort Worth, Tex, result
ing in a property loss of between So
100000 and $4,000 and the second
in Importance was at Rochester, N. Y.
with a loss of half a million dollars.
