TYRO DENTISTS
Practice on Typewriter Girls at New
Jersey State House.

Trenton, N. j., July 6.-The Assem-
bly, Chamber of the state House was
the scene Tuesday of something far
different from the incidents that char
acterized the closing hours of the Leg
iSlGture a few weeks ago. Several
stenographers, employed throughout
the State House. pretty girls. too. most
of them, had offered themselves as
subjects on which candidates for the
examinations in dentistry might prac-
tice, and the shrieks of some of them
could be heard on State street.
Before the practical examinations
had gone very far three of the girls
got up from the chairs in which they
had been reclining and declined to be
tortured any longer by the tyro DEN
lists who had been experimenting at
filing cavities in their molars. But
the others stuck to their chairs and
are rejoicing this evening in the pos
session of gold filings that did not cost
them a cent. The state had to pay Tor
the filings. just as it. pays for the RID
bons and carhons the girls use on their
typewriters.
There were 26 white candidates for den
tistry licenses and one negro. The latter
proved himself an adept at the art. and
it is believed that he will receive a IL
cense from the State Board of Registra-
tion under whose auspices the exami-
nations We're conducted.
In addition to the actual work of filling
teeth on living subjects. the candidates
had to prepare alloys in a specially pre-
pared laboratory in the basement of the
State House. and were also required to
make up silver plate all ready for set
ting in place. and fitted up with lot of
dental crockery. The Assembly chamber
looked for all the world like an enor-
nous dental parlor with crowd of
painless professors at work.

When O'Leary company reached the fire
OLeary rushed fearlessly UP into the
plant of the Eagle Gas Fixture Co. and
began fighting the flames and eating
smoke. He was in the midst of that
heroic work when he heard faint cries
of distress. At the risk of his life he
CROPPED about until he found the imperiled
victims. Picking them up he staggered
out of the building and advanced to his
battalion chief.
I've just saved q lives" O'Leary
gasped.
Where are they?" the battalion chief
inquired, with the air of man from Mis-
souri,.
Here they are" O'Leary replied, and
as he spoke he took off his helmet and
held it. rim upward. toward his chief.
The commander of the company leaned
forward. looked into the helmet and be-
held three teeney. weeney kittens.
You have done nobly,'' the battalion
chief said, patting O'Leary approvingly
on the back. You deserve as a reward
for this to be entered as Exhibit A in the
