son proved that he could also deliver
short address, eloquent and to the
point He gave rank to the heroine,
ate hero of the ranks. Praising the
firemen for the inestimable service they
rendered in saving life and property,
Senator Allen classed them with the
men who brave their breast to bat
tie, to the naval heroes who float the
seas and to the heroes of the railroad
service He advocated legislation
that would provide for one or two paid
fremen in every town and for state
fund for the benefit of those dependent
on firemen who might be killed in SER
vice.
Senator Allen spoke of the welcome
which went with the hospitality ex.
tended by the people of the gate city"

as the metropolis of this part of the
state, it already had all the railroads
of this section and wanted more.
Burt Mapes PIeases.
Burt Mapes, to the toast The Wis
iting Firemen," spoke in a lighter
vein. No city was prouder of its vol

he said, to pay proper tribute to the
courtesy and royal welcome which the

sought only that which they were
organized for, the protection of life
and property. He referred to the
death of A. C. Hull of Fremont.
Tyler Completes With Alarm.
NJ. d. Tyler of Norfolk, speaking on
the "Would-Be Fireman." was forced
into competition with a fire alarm.
He met the competition successfully,
however, with a number of clever
take offs and with a discussion of the
question of nationalites as making for
good firemen.
j. c. Elliott of West Point responded
to the closing toast.
e. A. Bullock, who was to have
spoke on Alarms" was called out of
the city on business and could not

Even in our societies there is a

prohibitionists and many who are not.
The addresses and the spirit of the
convention are all planned to create
"A great temperance sentiment, and
there is no effort made to induce the
members to follow any particular line
in carrying out their ideas as to the
best means to make this a temper
