FIRE RULES FOR MOrORBOATs.

An important ruling which was sent
to the Collector of the Port of Baltimore
by the Department of Commerce and
Labor regarding the fixing of the fines
in cases where motorboat owners failed
TO comply with the revised act of July
9. 1910. regarding prompt and effective
means of extinguishing burning gaso-
line was announced yesterday. Under
| the provisions of the act the fines for
the violations of this section cannot be
remitted by the Secretary of Commerce
and Labor.
In the ruling given by the department
the collector is instructed that in cases
were motorboats which did not have
means ready for immediate use the
matter should be reported to the United
States District Attorney of that city.
The law on this subject and the fine
provided for under the act is as follows:
Section 6. That every motorboat
and also every vessel propelled by ma
ehinery other than by steam more than
b5 feet in length shall carry ready for
immediate use the means of promptly
and effectually extinguishing burning
gasoline.
''Section 2. That a fine not exceed
ing 800 may be imposed for any viola
tion of this act. The motorboat shall
be liable for the said penalty and may
bs seized and proceeded against, by
way of libel, in the District Court of
the United States for any district with
in which such vessel may be found,
"Section 3. The Secretary
Of the Department Of Commerce and
Labor may, upon application therefor,
remit or mitigate any fine, penalty or
forfeiture relating to mptprboats except
for failure To observe the provisions of
Section 6 of this act
In further defining an extinguisher for
burning gasoline the departments ac-
cepts bags of sand or flour in sufficient
quantity. Just what is considered as
sufficient quantity has not as yet been
definitely defined.

DARING WORK IN A FOG.

Clever Seamaneiiip of n Captain In .
landloeked Harbor.
"The greatest piece OF seamanship I
ever saw" said a traveller, twas on n
trip to Halifax. II was a marvel. and
this is how 1t happened.
"We were steaming along about
twelve hours out from our destination
one summer afternoon. II had been
clear all day, and the sea was neauti-
fully blue. but about O'clock the fog
began to shut down-one OF those
swift, dense fogs that come on that
coast and shroud boat from sight in
less time than II takes TO tell OF It, or

and many OF the passengers got nerv.

-Afrer dinner 1 went up on the
bridge and was permitted TO stay. The
captain would not enter into any con-
yersation-that is, / could not talk TO
him, but In his restless pacing up and
down the bridge he would frequently
make q remark to me. IL went on that
way for hours, the fog as thick as
steam and the whistle reiterating its
mournful warning.

''On and on we went, and always the

"KETCH-AWLS S"FROM EVERYWHERE

The tramp suffers from the most
deadly disease known; laziness. And
like most other diseases it is mental.
Lazy people make excuses instead of
delivering the goods. Most excuses are
lies, and all dishonesty is in the same
class. Rrother, don't waste any time
making excuses. they don't produce
anything and whatever you do, don't
lie to yourself "to thine own self be
true, "-Ruster Brown.
We heard one of our young men max
ms sport of religion in front of the of
flee the other day. His moustache had
Just begun to sprout and judging from
his talk his mental faculties were not
as well developed as his moustache.
During our brief stay on earth we have
seen many just such young men cold in
death, We have seen the atheist at
rest in his casket, but before being
consigned to their last resting place
they have all been carried through the
doors Of church and had prayers said
over them. This young man could
scott at religion in his strength and
beauty, but if the dark angel should
get after him he would instinctively
regret what he said and look into
the future with fear and trembling.
When one stands before the open door
of eternity his desire to scoff at religion
vanishes. We admit there are bad
men in the church. but even these
black sheep in the flock might be
blacker if they were outside. No
young man or old one either, should
condemn the noble efforts the army
of Christian men and women, are
making towards bettering the condi-
tion of things, and whether be attend
church or not hut few of MS would de-
sire to live in a community where there
was no church. - Cristield Times.
