Maj Sylvester. superintendent Of po-
lice said today that he had directed that
the officers and privates in the police de-
partment familiarize themselves with the
tails. passageways. courts and means of
entrance and exit at all apartment houses,
large buildings and factories. With such
knowledge in their possession. the super
intendent Of police thinks. the members
of the police department will be better
equipped to assist at fires in such build
ings.
The members of the force are also to
see to the observance Of the regulation
relating to doors swinging outward. and
that fire escapes are kept free OF OBJ
structions in order that they may be ac-
cessible at all times.
Maj. Sylvester has also directed that
members Of the force consult owners of
such property with view to obtaining
plans of such structures. in order that
such plans may be kept on file in the
sta tiOns. where they may be studied.
Policemen have been further directed to
see that entrances to apartment houses
are kept in such condition during the late
hours Of the night that occupants may
readily have access to the street i'm case
of fire.
With the police In possession of such
information, the superintendent says. they
ought to be better equipped to do rescue
work in case Of fire or excitement.

seen too noble examples of those
who have met with losses and fail
ures, and yet risen from them all
with a conscious integrity, and who
have been sustained by the testi-
mony of all around them, that
though unfortunate, they were never
dishonest. When we set before you
such examples. when we show you
not that Honesty is the best pol
icY,' but that it is the very key
stone of the whole arch of manly
and christian qualities, it cannot be
that every ingenious heart does not
respond to the appeal. Heaven
grant all such to feel that an Hon
est man is the noblest work of God"
and to live as they feel Elk.

Phone 500 Miles To Parrot.

Atlanta. Ga, May, 8-Overcome
by a desire to hear the notes of her
parrots voice Mrs. W. H. Wall of
Atlanta, while on a visit to Cincin-
natl last week, it became known to-
day, employed the long distance
telephone to converse with her
feathered pet which was pining in
Atlanta. 500 miles away.
When connections had been made
between Cincinnati and Atlanta,
Polly was perched near the mouth
piece, while a servent held the re-
ceiVer to her ear.
When her mistress spoke Polly
responded. She talked quite freely
becoming garrulouS in fact, and no
one seemed to enjoy the converse
ton more than she.
Other members of the household
could not get the other side of the
conversation, but they think from
the expression on PollyS counte-
nance it ran much to Doll Baby
and other endearing terms.
incidentally the connection cost
$50. 1t was worth it, according to
Mrs. Wall and Polly, but Mr.. Wall
expressed himself differently.

VIII Stand Acquitted.

On the great day of account it
will be found. that men have erred
more in judging of the honesty of
others than in any one thing else,
not even religion excepted. Many
who have been condemned and had
the stigma of dishonesty fixed up
on them because misfortune dis
abled them from paying their just
debts will stand acquitted by the
judge of the quick and dead while
others cover dishonest hearts and
actions undetected by man. 1t is
our earnest desire to eradicate the
impression so fatal to many young
man, that one cannot live by being
perfectly honest You must have
known men who have gone on for
years in unbroken prosperity and
yet never adopted that motto, "All
is fair in trade" You must have

Poultry Association.

There are several here who are
breeding pure bred poultry. 1t ap-
pears that the thing to do would be
to organize a Poultry Breeders AS
ISOLATION and extensively advertis-
ing that the place to buy pure bred
fowls and eggs for setting is from
the Monroe Poultry Association.
Let each member breed some vari-
ETY. of poultry and the Secretary of
the Association will notify each
member to send birds and eggs to
parties as ordered. What have you
to say on this question?
Sometime ago the DEMOCRAT
man was talking with T. E. Quisen-
berry, the Secretary of the State
Poultry board and he gave it as his
opinion that such an Association
should have one breed of birds on
ly and by their fine stock make a
reputation for the Best so that when
anybody in the United States spoke
of the kind bred by our Association,
that they would Immediately be re-
minded of the fact that Monroe City
is the place where the BEST can be
obtained Why not? 1t can be done
and would be a money making
business, besides would make Mon
roe bred fowls of the breed selected
the standard of the United States
The Democrat will be pleased to
have the opinion Of our poultry
fancieys on this question.
Then we will be pleased to have
you write an article on anything
relating to poultry raising. Such
articles will help the writer, will
help our readers, will help Monroe
City.

board last week, all the old teachers

Missouri Fruit Crop Report.

Missouri Fruit Crop Report.
The State Board of Horticulture
is in receipt of special reports from
practically every county in the
state, and from these advices the
following summary of conditions
regarding the fruit crop up to May
10, is compiled.
APPLES On the whole, there
promises to be a good crop of this
fruit throughout the entire state.
In the parts of the state where
orchards bore heavily last season,
there was not a heavy bloom this
year. Also, there is universal COM
plant of a light bloom with the
Ben Davis type, and now and then
d few other varieties. Jonathan
promises especially we'll almost
everywhere. Reports seem to show
the best yield in the northeast
counties. In the southwest the
crop is well distributed although
not particularly heavy. 1t is bellev-
ed there is enough bloom every
where to insure as much fruit as
the trees should be permitted to
bear. Prospects now are for the
largest crop in years.
PEACHES. The best prospect
for liberia, the leading commercial
peach, is in the northeast counties
but there are no large orchards there
This variety was frozen out in the
northwest part of the state during
the winter. In the central counties
the peach crop will be irregular. In
three of the counties, a fair crop
of liberia is reported, but for the
most part the yield will be from

sorts. In the south central counties
where the large peach orchards are
located, there will be a light crop Of

ten per cent. The damage was
done there by the freeze in March

part Of the state the reports
say there will be from rs to
100 per cent of a crop of strawber-

some of the earlier sorts but did
not effect the general yield very
much, but the season will be a few
days later than usual.

Last Friday night the residents
in the neighborhoOd of the Katy De-
pot were alarmed at the sound of
shots and loud talking and for some
time it was feared that some one
was hurt. Marshal Stephens got
busy at once and swoOped down on
a party of colored folks who were
engaged in rather a spirited argu-
ment in regard TO a sable hued
damsel known as Hattie Bassett.
The Marshal promptly arrested Hat
tie and one Will Kinchelo and held
them for police court Saturday,
when Kinchelo was fined $40 and
costs. The woman was let off with
a dollar and costs.

The Hannibal Bridge Co., and the
Wabash Railway Co, were each fin
ed $4,000 some time ago in the
United States district court. The
Government charged that defendant
companies were operating the draw
span in the Hannibal bridge across
the Mississippi river at a point
which menaced river traffic. The
Wabash appealed the case to the
Supreme Court and that tribunal
sustained the action of the lower
court.
