An Increase i'm Appropriations.
The appropriations for 1906 and
1907 as given in the bulletin include
the anticipated expenditures for out

priations for 1907 amounted TO $685.

or 105 per cent, over the previous
year. This, however, does not mean,
it is stated, that the expense of main
tanning the departments increased at
that rate, for portion of this amount
was appropriated for the purchase of

from these data that the fire depart
ments of this country are not eco
nomically administered. The low per
capita cost of maintenance abroad is
the result of stricter building regu-
lations, more nearly fire proof build
ings and greater precautions to pre-
vent the occurrence of fires. The for
eign municipalities also make no pay
ment for water for fire purposes, an
expense incurred by about two-fifths
Of the departments in the large cities
of this country.
In those cities for which complete
reports were made there were SS,255
fire alarms during 1907 and 7S,507
fires, of which 52,343 resulted in
losses. In other words, only sos
per cent of the alarms were for fires
which occasioned loss Similarly,
disregarding those cities with incom-
plete reports, the total loss through
fires was $4S,676.730, on which in
surance was paid amounting to SAP
655, 1875, leaving a net loss of So
OIL, O05, or 12.4 per cent
The total fire loss per capita was
$2.2S and the net loss per capita
$0.2S. Of the total loss reported, a
separation of the total on buildings
and the total on their contents was
returned for $4S,30s,0S1, showing
that $1S,965, 427, or 1913 per cent,
was on buildings and $29,342,654,

about the old Gazette and said he
could stick type pretty fast yet.

Gazette of 1881 tells about a man

Der and ran on its first page a copy

great interest by the veterans of the
