A WISE APPROPRIATION.

The decision of the board of alder
men to increase the fire fighting facil-
tiles Of the city will meet with the
almost unanimous approval of the tax
payers. Just at this time, there is
probably not public work that the
funds of the city could be appro-
priated for that would be Of more
real benefit to the public as whole
than the extension of the equipment
for fighting the fire demon, which is
liable to break forth at any hour
endangering the lives and property
of any and all the residences of the
city.
The information comes. from re-
liable source that the total cost OF the
work ordered at the last meeting OF
the board will not exceed $1,000 or
$4,000, and not $4,000 as was at
first stated. This sum will be saved
in a very short time in the decrease
in the insurance rate which will be
assured when the equipment order
ed by the board is available for use
by the department. And this is TAX
ing no account of the saving that
will result from fire prevention.

pital by some means and sufficient
funds set aside to enable an expert
to devote some time to the discovery

statement OF the alarming situation
in the city, as set forth in the news

some kind of action by the city au-

An OBNOXIOUS NUISANCE

About the most obnoxious nuisance
which ladies' who traverse city streets
have to endure are the saucy upstairs
of the masculine gender who haunt
street corners with an ungrounded
prejudice in favor of their own
charms.
There has been mach complaint re-
Gently by the ladies Of Durham in re-
gard to the insulting attitude which
some OF these upstairs assume. A lady
recently came to Durham to do some
work in connection with Christian
institution. and she has received to
date no less than dozen insulting
approaches by letter and in. person
from Johnnies who hug a fond delu-
sion as to their fa.al gifts Of beauty
and attraction for the feminine sex.
The ladies claim that they are COM
PEELED TO have the protection of men
in order to get to hurch and back
without being insulted
BY far the larger majority OF the
men Of Durham have a reasonable
amount Of respect and chiya'ry for
womanhood. II Is only the base few
who think II smart to stand on the
street corners and stare and make in
sulting remarks about ladies. These
Washers should be taken In hand by
the police department and confined in
the city lookup in order that they may
have time for a little sober reflection
that would tend to dlsillusIon them a.
to their personal charms.
Nor are the conditions in Durham
worse than in many Of the other cities
In Los Angeles Washers became so oh
noxious that the police department
employed a young lady to act as de
coy in landing some Of the more ia
