CHICAGO'S CEMENT SUBURB.

With the purpose of erecting a con-
crete suburb of Chicago, similar to the
successful new group of homes at Vir-
GINA Highlands, a contract has Just been
signed with E. A. Cummings & Co.. the
largest suburb operators of that city.
This system OF pouring cement houses
has attracted attention and interest all
over this country and Europe. Plans are
now in hand to start developments near
most of the larger cities
For many years builders and those in
terested in housing have recognized that
the poured house must eventually solve
the problem of inexpensive homes.
A Washington architect, Milton Dana
Morrill,, has appreciated the great OPP
portunity in the use of REINFORCED con-
crete for home building and to demon
strate his theory of pouring in steel
nolds, which is a new invention, has Or
ganized a garden suburb development at
Virginia Highlands, where many of these
houses have been built. They have
proven warm, dry, and healthy and now
work is being started on broad basis in
the new suburb across the river. 1t is
proposed during the coming spring to
build some twenty or thirty of these new
type homes and to complete the gardens
and parks, which have been laid out with
view toward creating a model settle
ment of inexpensive homes. Each resi-
dence will be planned with especial ref
erence to its own flower and vegetable
gardens, SO that the whole settlement
may be attractive. Philadelphia capital
lists have been interested in the under
taking as a demonstration in ideal home
building.
Permanent offices of the Virginia High
lands Association have been lately taken
in the Corcoran Building.

NEW ALARM GIVES
FIRE PROTECTION
Tube and Diaphragm Sup
plant Old Apparatus.

Fort Jay. Governors Island, New York
Harbor, April 21.-The test of the newly
installed air-alarm fire protection equip
ment at Governors Island, In New York
Harbor, headquarters Department of the
LAST, United States Army, furnishes strik-
ing proof of the need of replacing archaic
fire protection methods with the creations
of modern genius.
In just forty-two seconds from the time
the test fire was started on the open
dock, the alarm rang in. The garrison
alarm was sounded according to the sys-
TEN long in vogue at the island, the loca-
ton being announced through the tele-
phone TO company headquarters.
Gen. Frederick D. Grant commanding
4 Department of the East. before whom
the test was made. believes the air-alarm
so.ves the fire prevention as well as fire
protection problem.
1t is distinguished from others by the
employment of an entirely new principle
in automatic fire alarms. a small con-
tinuous alloy tube Q-S inch in diameter)
Is distributed over the ceilings of the
buildings to be protected. The ends of
this tubing, on each floor, terminate in a
case containing two d1aphragms. Electric
wires running from these cases control
gongs on all the floors and an annuncia-
tor. placed at the entrance, or other
prominent part of the building.
In the event of a fire in any section of
building the rapid rise of heat on the
ceiling, which is the result of the ex-
pOsure OF even a small quantity of flame.
causes a corresponding expansion of the
air in the tubing. This expanded air Is
carried through the tubing to the dia-
phragms at each of its ends, and causing
them to expand, closes the electric circuit,
which in turn operates the gongs and in
dictates on the annunciator the exact
location of the fire.
