A WORD OF PRECAUT1oN

To the Editor of The Farmer Sir:
 The authorities of the City have limited the time in which the cele- bration of The Fourth of July may take place with all its noise. But though the time seems short to be en- thusiastic, the young patriot who possesses much spirit to work off, it is long enough to permit of much damage being done. Powder is ex- plosive and burns fearfully. It bursts it's bounds and breaks bones. In spite of the greatest care of the careless boy, nany accidents will hap pen. And the careless boy in his patriotic pride is not likely to pay much attention to his injury, but bears it with fortitude because he thinks it manly. But we want to emphasize the fact that the most serious results may come from a very slight injury. It ought not to be wisdom, not bravado to have the slight injury attended to. This is to call the attention of the people to this and and to urge upon them the fact that it is expedient to have every injury attended to at once The in- juries and deaths which occur annu- ally from Fourth of July celebrations in the last seven years there were 34,- 1O3 accidents. Of these 1,513 died from injuries,-an average of 219 year. ly. In 1910, one hundred and thirty one lives were lost, 67 which were from tetanus. It is this which has led to the cry for a 'safe and sane fourth But accidents will happen though the time be short in which to do it, and injuries received although great care be exercised. We wish to bring these facts to light that they may excite interest and attention, and urge that all injuries be attended to promptly and properly.

THE WAYS AND MEANS
 COMMITTEES DEFINITIONS
Nicholas Longworth.

(Nicholas Longworth.)
 Now I want to take up the most interesting feature of this report. On page 226 you have what you call a glossary. The Lord only knows where you got it, from what archives It was dug up or who prepared 1t. There are some definitions in this glossary that not a man here on the floor of this House is old enough to know when they were written. Some of thetic in being brought forward as a basis for a Democratic revision of the wool tariff in this year of our Lord 1911.
 I begin with your definition of wool which is found on page 231. Note this:
 "wool-Fibers of alF animals are not alike. They vary in f1neness, soundness, length and strength from the finest merino to the rigid bristles of the wild boar.'
 Is there a gentleman on that side of the House who will accept the au- thority of that?
 MT. Moore of Pennsylvania-Will anybody deny it.
 MT. Longworth-will anybody de ny the authorship of it? I should not be surprised if that was written lamb It conveys about as much idea to this House about what WOOL is as is conveyed by that celebrated classic.
 They go on little further, how ever, and distinguish as follows:
 "Hair-Hair is straight and glossy, stronger and smoother than wool and grows sometimes as long as 20 in- ches."
 But that is not all. Here we come to what may be called a cunning little definition:''
 "Blanket-A heavy covering for a Led or horse"
 Why did you forget the Indians |? Have you no regard for the needs of the wards of this nation? And yet you limit blankets to bed and horses.

tc1cd the bank BY the front door

eoi the vault, blew the safe by charges
sof nitro-glycerine and got clear away
with their booty without being seen
except by q Chinese caretaker. They
probably escaped down the Frazer

ward Vancouver.
There was in all S350,0O0 in the

1t was, they took all they could carry
away. leaving all the silver and notes
of small denominations as well as

Hills lying around the floor and tables
OF the room of one of the clerks.
The first known of the robbery was
when Chinese caretaker appeared
mt the police station at about $3.50
O'Clock and gave the alarm. He had
managed to work his bonds loose af-
ter the robbers had departed. Chief
OF Police Bradshaw hurried to the
scene and all of the available officers
were pressed into service, but the
only clue obtainable was that given by
the Chinaman.
From the thoroughness of the job
and the tools with which the work
was done the local officers believe the
same gang that has recently been at
work in Vancouver turned the trick
here. 1t is impossible to say just when
the men effected their entrance into
the bank, but II is presumed that It
was somewhere about o'clock this
morning for when the Chinese janitor
arrived shortly after o'clock to
clean up. he found that three men had
been doing little cleaning up on
their own account and before Chin
aman could give the alarm he was
sandbagged, gagged and tied to a

collect the gold and bills from the
vault and left the building some time
before o'clock taking fully quar-

vicinity is apparent by the finding of

been in the city.
The first intimation of their pres

hardware store when he returned
from the fair about 80 yesterday ev-

number of guns were gone, the clerk
estimating that an even half dozen
were stolen.
The officers were notified but no
action had been taken to organize a

headed toward Deadmans Flat, a
