HOUSE WITH NO STAIRS
Pittsburg Man Plans New Residence
smbodying Some Very Unique
Features.

The new residence which is being
built on the Clearyiew plan at Mount
Lebanon. Pittsburg, for A. G. Smith
Of Pittsburgh. has some features which
are unique and probably not embodied
in any other residence in this section.
The house is without stairwsys or
steps. the slope idea having been sub
stituted. The grade Of this slope is
about ten per cent. Entering from the
veTanda 10 the large reception hall
ones attention is directly drawn 10
the unique method employed Of reach
ing the upper floor. In the living
room. which is probably 20x35 feet,
large concrete fireplace and mantel
is the principal feature. with wide
bay window. There are no corners to
the house. as each OF the four ends OF
the residence are OF the bay type.
The only wood used In the construc-
ton Of the building is to be found in
the door stills. windows and floors, the
latter of which will be hardwood. The
walls OF the building are of cement.
finished with white cement trimmings.
Even the two bathrooms are fitted
with cement tubs. In all there are
ten rooms. The roof is Of concrete,
surrounded with a parapet, the porch
roofs are of the same type, thus af-
fording second story porches in the
front and rear, both Of which are MT
ted up with concrete flower troughs in
which blooming flowers are now to be
seen even in the unfinished condition
Of the house. On the front second
story porch a fountain is arranged.

Notices Pour In.

Notices Of heroic deeds pour in 10
the commission by the thousand. Some
times disinterested spectators who wit
ness brave deed write about it, more
frequently friends of the hero send IN
the news. and sometimes. alas. the
hero himself forwards information or
his prowess. Newspaper editors, school
teachers and clergymen are among the
most frequent OF the commissions in
formants. Seldom indeed does any
piece of bravery go unreported.
For news of such items the commits
sion depends upon the services OF a
newspaper clipping bureau. so that 1t
is n rare occurrence when the COM
mission fails TO learn of a daring deed.
Two classes OF recommendations are
always looked upon with suspicion
first. recommendations accompanied by
atfidavits, which indicate that the
would be hero or his friends are try
ing TO bolster up weak case, and.
second. eases reported by clergymen.
because clergymen are given to over
estimating courageous acts.
To every person who reports case
the commission sends a blank to be
filled out and returned. This blank
asks for minute details. names of wit
nesSes. etc. often these blanks are
not returned. fnd thus many undeserv-
ing cases are at once eliminated. In
every case in which the blanks are
returned properly filed out the matter
is followed up. often many letters
are written TO make sure that the case
is of sufficient Importance to warrant
detailing an investigator to it, When
the clerical force at the Pittsburgh Of
fee has thus sifted the claims as far
as possible the documents in the case
are turned over TO the investigators.

fob entails months of travel yearly,
unmarried men are preferred. NO
where else are there to be found men
so well equipped for the task OF hero
hunting as on the stats Of large city
newspapers. So 1t happens that every
one of the Carnegie hero hunters is
newspaper graduate.
The beginner as rule receives 500
, month and all his travelling expenses
After he has acquired experience his
salary is raised to s125 month, with
expenses. Further advances depend
upon the man himself and the quality
of his work.
In his suit case the hero hunter car
ries all the documents collected by the
commission about the cases he Is TO
Investigate. Upon reaching a town
where he is to make an investigation
he registers at hotel, keeping his
business secret. His first step is to
make thorough study of the papers
in the case in question.
His next is to interview the person
who reported the case. Then the wit
nesses are examined. and lastly the
principal is seen. An experienced in
vestigator quickly scents a case that
amounts to nothing, and he as quick
" gets to the bottom Of it and drops
it. But on a genuine case he spends
anywhere from two or three days to
as many months.
Having concluded his work, the in
vestigator sends TO the commission
detailed report illustrated with photo
graphs. for a portable typewriter and
a camera are a part of the outfit OF
every hero hunter. In his report he
must tell the name. age. address and
occupation of the rescuer. together
with similar facts as to the person res
cued. He must state the time. place
and circumstances of the rescue. even
TO weather conditions. and. in case of
a rescue from. drowning, the stage of
the tide.

information Must Be Accurate.


He must give a description of the ac-
cident. together with statements from
the rescuer, the rescued and the wit
nesses. He must also state the reputa-
tion of the witnesses for veracity. Es-
peciallv must he learn and state fully
the financial condition OF the rescuer,
his aims and ambitions and the condi-
ton of his family. These latter facts
are necessary because it is the purpose
of the commission to help heroes along
In life or to give financial assistance
TO those who were dependent upon a
hero that may literally have given his
life for another, for not all the he
roes rewarded are living heroes.
To make proper award the commits
sion must have very accurate intor-
nation as to both the hero's hopes and
habits. For instance. an incorporate
miner at great risk saves comrade
from being crushed to death. To give
such man large cash award would
be worse than useless. He would SIM
ply go on protracted spree and squan-
der the entire sum. But if the man
were sober and steady and had built
a house on which he was carrying a
mortgage the commission might pay of
the mortgage. An ambitious youth
who has shown bravery may receive a
fund for an education. A girl hero
may be given musical training. or
sufferer from disease may be sent
where he can be cured or at least
treated.
Sometimes an Investigation hinges
on some seemingly unimportant detail
For instance. there was a case of
young man who was reported TO have
made hazardous rescue on the sea-
coast. 1t seemed to be genuine one.
The would be hero showed the inves-
tigator the spot and described how he
made the rescue on such and such

A Hero Defined.

According to the standards Of the
Carnegie commission. hero is one
who actually jeopardizes his life to
save another and who does it regard
less of the consequences to himself.
Many rescues are made that involve
little danger to the rescuer. Such a
rescuer in the eyes of the commission
is not hero. Some men attempt res
cues in the face of what appears to be
certain death. Such men are heroes.
But to be a hero a man must risk his
life voluntarily. professional heroes"
