CAPTAIN MAKES COMPLAINT
Each Subordinate Practically Ad-
mits Lack of Harmony.
Mayor Gives Advice

An entire engine company was put
on trial yesterday by the hre COM
mission and as a result several fire.
men were censured and another prob
ably will be dismissed from the service.
The engine company No. 16 at l3o
North Hope street, Capt. M. A. Nor
and, commanding the company, report
ed to the commission yesterday that
five of his men were derelict in their
duties In one way or another. He cit
ed specific instances and asked for
relief AS it would have put the en-
CINE copany out of business tempor-
arily to have hailed every member be-
fore the commission at the city hall,
the commission adjourned to the en-
gine house and held the trial there.
When brought before the commission
every accused man practically admit
ted that he was guilty of the charges
made against him and various pun
ishments were meted out.
Lieut.. II. S. Greenwood, who would
not work in harmony with the cap
tain, is to be reprimanded before the
company by the battalion chief and
transferred to another company at the
chiefs convenience. He was instruct
ed to gsee that there was no lack Of
harmony on his part in the future with
his commanding officer.
ErZEL MAY BE SUSPENDED
e. H. Etzel. fireman, was accused by
Captain Morand of being around COM
pany quarters while under the infiu-
ence of liquor. Etzel is off on a 20 days
leave of absence, but when he reports
for duty he will be suspended, 1t is
said. and cited to appear before the
fire commission to show cause why he
should not be dismissed.
Fred Vaught,. driver, was ordered
transferred to engine company No. 6.
He was accused of being too head
strong and talking back to the cap
tain when ordered to do anything.
G.. A. Lobel. fireman, who was ac-
cused of leaving company quarters
without permission, was instructed not
to so any more under heavy penalty
When all the cases had been heard
Mayor Alexander lined the members of
the company along the wall and gave
them some fatherly advice. He told
them that Capt. Morand was the COM
manding officer and they sheuld heed
his instructions and obey them i'm
plictly and without comment. He re-
minded them that the orders issued
by the captain usually came from
some one higher up and that some of
the disagreeable things he told them
to do were ordered by his superiors.
1t was a much chastened engine
company when the fire commission fin
ally adjourned and not much trouble
is expected from that quarter very
soon.
The commissions act was suggested
by Commissioner Hawley. Morand
had told him Of the difficulties he
found in his company and Mr.. Hawley
advised him to prefer charges against
the whole company.

will break if set fiat upon the bottom
OF the boiler.
The selection and preparation Of the
vegetables is first consideration.
Never attempt to can any vegetable
that has matured and commenced to
harden or decay. AS general rule
young vegetables are superior in flavor
and texture to the more mature ones.
The principle Of sterilization IS the
same Tor all meats, fruits and Vegeta-
bles
contrary to the general opinion,
corn is one of the easiest Vegetab Dies
to can. The United States Depart
mont OF Agriculture has shown that
the amount of sugar in the sweet va
rieties diminishes very rapidly after
the ear is pulled from the stalk, there
fore in order to retain the original
sWeeness and flavor it is necessary to
can corn very soon after it Is pulled
within an hour if possible. Select
the ears with full grains before they
have begun to harden as this is the
period Of greatest sugar content. Husk

This will relieve any pressure from

them to cool. Repeat the operation
on the third day In removing the
jars from the boiler be careful not
to expose them to draft of cold air
while they are hot, as sudden change
in temperature is hkely - crack

After the sterilization is complete,
the jars may be set aside for day
two and then tested. This is done by
releasing the spring at the side and
picking up the jar by the top. If
there has been the least bit Of de-
composition or if sterilization has

CANNING VEGETABLES IN THE HOME

The first requisite for successful
canning is a good jar. Glass is the
hest. The most satisfactory jar that
the writer has had any experience
with has a rubber ring and a glass
ton which is held in place by a simple
wire spring. 1t is poor economy to
buy a cheap grade of jar or cheap
rlIbbers. AS a rule black rubbers are
more durable than white ones.
For a steriliZer the writer uses a
tin clothes boiler with a false bottom
Of wire netting to fit. The netting is
made Of medium sized galvanized wire

I'LL up the jar to the top with cold
water. Put the rubber ring around
the neck Of the jar and place the glass
top on loosely, as shown in the pic
.ture.
BE careful not to press down the
spring at the side of the jar.

will conveniently hold. Don't try to
