FIRE ALARMS FOR GLOBE

For the reason that in the past few months Globe has suffered several disastrous losses by fires, and for the further reason that, in some cases, the extent of q confagration might have been materially curtailed had prompt alarm been given and the exact location of the blaze definitely and immediately determined, many progressive people of the city are now agtat- ing the installing of an adequate and thorough ly dependable system of fire alarm boxes.
 A more commendabe suggestion could hard ly be made at present for municipal betterment and for private property protection. The great defect in the present method of making known the breaking out and location of fire is that the telephone operators of the local lines have to assume chief responsibility in conveying the news of the place where the blaze is to the head quarters of the local fire company. Now any person who ever had the slightest experience with telephones, even as an occasional con verser over these latter-day conveniences, knows that it is the easiest thing in the world for one to be either msnfOrmed or to be sub ject to lapse of memory in retaining in mind such an elusive item as house number or the name of a street. So the telephone operator should not meet censure when she makes mis- take in the reporting of fire, even though the loss of property is doubled thereby The meth cd of fire alarms and not the operator is at fault.
 In the rush of business life, we are all too likely to forget that Globe is growing city and that while the pastoral name of camp might have been appropriate in it's application to her la few years ago, it is no longer appelatively apt The cty's boundaries have spread and her buildings have increased in size to the point where the equipment of municipality and not of village is desperately needed, and most of laIl, perhaps, in fre-fghting and fire prevention appliances
 The installing of system of fire alarm boxes is by no means hercuean task. The local tele- phone company has already volunteered the use of it's poles for this purpose. Agents have been
 in the field several times with satisfactory box es and with figures for providing the wires and fire alarms. According to an estimate by the city engineer, twenty boxes would be sufficient for the present. The cost of the entire system is small compared with the loss that will result to the city and to local property owners lacking la proper means of getting knowledge of fire to department headquarters.
 No further argument is needed. It is to be earnestly hoped that during the next few months, Globe will grant final exit to the time honored frontier six-shooter method of herald ing fire and obtain in it's stead a thoroughly Iup-to-date system of electric fire alarms

"The Man From Home"

successfully as it swept Chicago into

net Feb. Is, matinee and night. To

fashionable slang. "The Man From
Home" is distinctly worth while. The
ordinary theater-goer could declare it
either bully or immense. The mat
inee girls "Too sweet for anything"
would in this one case take on a new
and accumulated meaning. The play
has that original humor to which Ar

gave the distinction of publicity. 1t is

first act is beautiful and rich picture

with the surroundings. The play is
costumed with remarkable richness
and better still, the players know how
to wear them. No better example of
lighting effects has ever been employ
ed in spectacular production. The ap-
pearance of the Chef in Richmond

though never seen here before, much
of its reputation has preceded it.

"The Thief" is in three acts. It
observes all the unities of time, place
and incident. The action takes place

duced at the Renaissance theater in

made an immediate sensation. 1t ran
through the entire season with NJ.
Guitry and Nine. lie Bargy in the chief
roles. About the foibles, the ambi-
ton, the love as deep as human ma
ture and as wide as human frailty OF
a woman, 1.-THE Thief is a woman's
play. But side by side with the great
lesson it contains for every wife. it
contains rich food for thought for ev-
cry husband. 1t is the most startling
human dramatic document put on the
stage in years.

MONEY AFLOAT
LOCAL STREET CAR CONDUCTORS
FIND SPURIOUS COINS IN
CIRCULATION.

On Saturday a conductor on local
street car took In a spurious silver
dollar and such clever imitation 1t
was that the piece was not noticed
until It had passed through the trac.
tion company's Office and was taken to
the bank for deposit. The cashier no
ticed that the coin was not genuine.
On Sunday another car conductor
got caught with a fifty'cent piece,
which he has In bis possession yet.
He does not know from whom he got
the money. The coin looks very much
like genuine half dollar. but It Is
very light and has sort OF soft,
greasy feel to the touch, however. very
few people would notice that 1t wasn't
genuine unless their attention was
called to It.
People are warned to keep on the
lookout for spurious coins and thus
put an end to their circulation. The
banks will watch all silver money
closely and people generally will need
to keep their optics peeled for spur
ious coins.
