WARMING AGAINST
CHRISTMAS
FIRES
Chief Hynes Makes a Statement to
the Public Warning Merchants
to be Sure Their Displays are
Safe 0nes-Fire Proof.

In order to prevent Christmas fires
caused by bad wiring in connection
with decorations in stores. Chief of
the Fire Department Hynes has is
sued the following warning and re-
quest:
To Merchants Contemplating Holiday
Displays or Decorations:
GentlemCn-ln the interests of
public safety the fire department
feels warranted at this season Of the
year in directing attention to the
fire hazard that may arise from the
improper arrangement of electric wir-
ing and lights in conjunction with
show window decorations and SINH
lar displays involving the use of in
flammablc material.
Experience proves that most fires
originating from such causes. result
from want of circumspection on
the part of those who are not con-
versant with the electrical fire haz-
ard or the necessary safeguards for
its prevention
The tremendous loss Of life and
property i'm other cities due to care
lessness in preparing holiday dis
plays should convince the most skep-
tical that every known preeaution
should he taken to prevent accidents
dents.
II YOU contemplate arranging for
special displays or decorations dur
ing this season will you kindly give
us an opportunity to go over the
matter with you so that any sugges-
uoh we may make as 10 the proper
manner in which the electrical de
tails should be carried out, can be
submitted prior to the execution OF
your plans.
Trusting YOU will extend us this
courtesy. beg TO remain, very re-
spectfulIy your J. w, HINES.

Designers of women'S modes now ad-

AS a matter OF fact, narrow skirts

will depend on the beauty OF form
rather than as hitherto on the charm

WEBSTER PROSECUTION HALTs.
Thirty Days Time Granted for Defense
to File Bill of Exceptions.

Oregon, Illinois. = Action by the
Ogle county authorities in the prose
cution of Harry Elgin Webster, the
inferno accused of the murder of his
third wife. Bessie Kent Webster, has
been halted for at least a month. The
accused man pleaded not guilty"
when arraigned and his attorneys
asked that the indictments be quashed
on the grounds of insuficiency of the
testimony upon which they were
founded.
When this motion was overruled, a
petition for a delay of 80 days was
presented that the attorneys for the
defense might file a bill of exceptions
to the courts ruling. This was
granted.
Another woman appeared in the
group whose names have been brought
into the case because of their rela-
tons with Webster, when he received
a letter, signed only Rose" bearing
a message of cheer and encourage
ment and swearing undying fidelity
and love. Webster declared he did
o know who Rose was.
The letter was dated and mailed
from Chicago, Oct. Z.
Webster was returned to the county
jail after his arraignment, to remain
until his case comes up for trial in
December. ~, #.tnHs#

ANXIOUS TO LEARN

At the teachers agencies here 1t is
said that the demand for more and
better teachers is accompanied by in.
cas- in the cost Of tuition. This
is especially true of the private
schools, especially the boarding
schools.
1.-TWO or three years ago." said one
teachers agency manager, "a boy
could be sent to a very good boarding
school for $500 or $500 a year. Now
the average charge at such institu-
tions is $500 or $500.
THE colleges that charge tuition OF
course do not depend upon these fees
for support; nevertheless many of
them have raised their tuition
charges on an average of $25 a year.
The private boarding school business
must be profitable, for the number OF
establishments is increasing.
This, Of course, is good for our
business. for it quickens the demand
for teachers and raises salaries. The
only educational institutions that are
declining are the old-fash:oned day
seminaries. The free state schools are
fast driving them out"

Demand for Good Teachers
Greater Than Ever Before.
Reopening Of Schools Shows That De-
sire for knowledge Has Kept Bet
ter Than Abreast Of Growth
in Population.

New York.-"The schools OF the
country are opening this month and
with an increased attendance which
shows that the American thirst for
education has kept ahead of the
growth in population" This was said
by a manager of the largest teachers
agency in the country. who from the
nature of his work is In touch with the
educational situation all owe the
country. Incidentally, he added that
good times were ahead for the mem
bers of the teaching profession.
The last school census showed that
100000 were enrolled in the various
institutions Of the country. While nc
figures for the present year are OBJ
tainable. it is estimated that common
schools alone have at least Is. 000, 900
pupils.
Most of the public schools In the
north and east open soon after Labor
day. The exceptions are some schools
In northern New England, where. wv
ing to the hard winters and the diff
culties of transportation, sessions are
held only in the spring and autumn.
In the far south the beat delays
school openings, and in some districts
pupils do not return until November.
The latest institutions to begin the
years work are some OF the southern
mission schools, which depend mainly
upon teachers from the north. SEES
sions there are postponed until late in
the fall, so that the northern teachers
may not be subjected to the unaccus-
toned climate.
Most of the colleges and universities
will have begun work by the first of
October. AS a rule the state universe
ties and normal schools start earlier
than the universities privately en-
dOwed and have longer terms.

Supply Because Duty Is High
Customs Officers Alert.

New York.-"The cigars you buy in
France are notorious" said a smoker
recently who has lately come back
from Europe. and it is really impos-
sible to get a decent cigar at retail
at anything like a fair price. l know
of three places in Paris where you
can get good cigars by the box, one,
which for many years was under the
Grand hotel and is now across the
boulevard from It; another in the
Rue Ste. Honore. near the bottom Of
the Avenue de lOpera. and the other
in the Champs Elysees. a little below
the Elysee Palace hotel.
When | started for Paris from Lon
don ! had forty cigars in a box which
had cost me just 50. l had bought
them in London, thinking that as in
the past I would be allowed to take
forty cigars in at Boulogne free of
duty. An American who lives in
London told me on the channel boat
that a new law prohibited the admis-
sion Of more than ten free Of duty.
But he added. the duty is SO small
that you need not be alarmed
Nov, long experience has taught
me that the moment you declare any
thing to a French customs officer you
lay yourself open to trouble. If you
tell him you have anything dutiable
he is very apt to make a thorough
search. l remember that once !
bought a box OF twenty-five cigars at
Baden Baden and declared them when
l reached French Aginccurt, with the
result that not only did the customs
man 60 minute;y through all my hand
