MAYOR HEARS FIRE PLAN.
Suggestion Made to Have Retired Fire
men Drill Factory Hands.

Retired fremen may be employed TO
teach factory workers how best to save
themselves in case of fire. IF q plan which
Mrs. Robert Francis Cartwright. chairman
OF the public safety committee of the City

Mrs. Cartwright said aftcrward. I'VE feel
that il factory owners we're compelled to
have periodic fire drills for their employees

firemen could surely be hired for a small
sum to give the instruction. so 1t needn't
cost manufacturers much"
measure Mrs. Cartwright is going to
bring before the federation at it's next
meeting is for the protection OF women
ticket sellers on the elevated roads This
IS to have I'm every ticket booth an electric
alarm button which the ticket agent could
press in case of a night attack. There are
telephones in the booths, but Mrs. Cart

When ii was all over and the crowd
cleared away from the Barge Office Bill
Quigley. the Battery boatman. dropped his
note book. and 1t fell open to a well
thumbed page bearing the quotation above.
1t was too bad he dropped 1t, for he had
just moved away from the range of a NOV
ing picture machine which had caught him
in action. OF course. his Irritation with the
lens OF the rapld fire camera was not inten-
tional. for Quigley spurns publicity.
However. when he saw the operator ex-
posing a thousand feet of film, the visual
record of the last act of "Hlda, the Hunt
ed Alien" he could not move from his
place at the Barge Office gate until the
last act' was taken. So the moving pict-

Negro Added That's Why He
Got Fow-COn11cted.

II may be true that hencoops have an
.rresistible attraction for negroes, or it
may be true that the troubles of mothers
tn-lsw cause mirth among married men,
hut Judge Foster, in Part III OF General
Sessions. yesterday charged a jury that
the attitude of the comic papers in such
matters must not affect its conclusion
whether or = OF John A. Smith, a negro,
ffty-seven years Of age. of No. SAB Court
lsndt avenue, was chicken thief. The
curry found Smith guilty of petit larceny
He had been indicted for burglary in the
third degree.
Smith. his ebony face the picture Of in
cured innocence, protested on the stand
that he had not on the night Of Decenl-
Der II. as charged in the Indictment pushed
over a fence and broken into the chicken
coop OF Mrs. Philomena Aurley. at Mott
avenue and 15lst street, taking with him
twenty OF the plumpest of the feathered
occupants when he departed.
Mrs Aurley testified that she had seen
him leaving the premises with a bag over
his shoulder. and Patrolman Dennis Doyle
later in the evening found Smith walking
along Park avenue. with four chickens
wrapped UP in a cloth. They had been
killed hy twisting their necks
In court yesterday Smith declared that
he had purchased them from a butcher
named Friedander, 1880 street. Fried
lander testified that no chickens went out
OF his store with their necks wrung
What kind of chickens were they?"
asked Assistant District Attorney Press.
The kind that lay 'aigs.' " replied Smith
DO you like chcken?"
Yes, deed" Smith answered. with a
broad grin, and that's why got four OF
them"
The court officers raped for order. and
the incident was followed by Judge Foster
saying in his charge 20 the jury that it
must treat the case seriously.
Then he mentioned the mother-in-lav
Joke. saving: II doubt very much whether
the average married man feels thrill OF
Joy when the mother of the wife of his
bosom suffers misfortune. And yet the
comic journals would have us believe thai
such is the case
