American cities in general and in

most Municipalities have found some
trouble in enforcing their ordinances
against the smoke nuisance, on the

turns smoke prevention makes to the
furnace owners who ioin the move

Smoking chimneys are no longer
fashionable in the engineering world.
They proclaim imperfect installation
or poor firemanship. The man who
today instals a new furnace regards
a smoking chimney as a perpetual in

who is responsible for the firing sys-

IN 10 I'm per cent on the cost OF M
dry goods AZ q result of damages from
smoke. Another merchant declared
that 1t cost twice as much to keep hi
store and stock clean In st. Louis Al
1t costs an eastern merchant with
approximately the same stock and
floor space. The public librarian de-
clared that the damage to the books
in the public library amounts to $780,
900 year, and book and stationery
store placed its loss at the same figure
One Of the arguments used against
smoke prevention efforts in st. Louis
was that 1t would yield no important
results to the public at large be-
cause East st. Louis, situated across
the Mississippi, was not planning any
similar crusade. But Investigation
showed that less than 10 per cent OF
ST. Louis smoke came from across the
river. The city now has anti-smoke
ordinances which have been declared
constitutional, and boasts Of upward
of a thousand plants equipped with
smoke preventing devices.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j.. March q. 1912.
Life is life. and with something in 1t
worth while down by the sea these
spring days. And already men and
women who have been cooped up in
cities during the long winter are finding
their way to the freedom Of the open
sea- The resorts thronged with visitors,
the great beach front palaces are filled
to overlooking. and the smaller hostel
ries are rapidly throwing open their
doors. The shoreward spring invasion
has set In.
The oldest woman around these parts
is Mrs. Sarah English, who now lives in
Ocean City, Just across the bay. Mrs.
English, who is the wife of Capt Elmer
English, well known as a skipper in the
coastwise trade years ago. is ninety-three
years Of age. and in exceptionally good
health.
The beautiful and artistic brown stone
st. James Episcopal Church, at the cor
ner of Pacific and North Carolina ave-
nues, was destroyed by fire Friday after
noon of last week, entailing loss OF s2S,-
COO. no part of which was covered by
insurance The church was in ruins five
minutes before the time set for confirma-
ton services In the afternoon, and the
Right Rev. John Scarborough. bishop of
the diocese of New Jersey, was present to
officiate. The rector, Rev. w. w. Batch
ford, together with the laymen Of the
church, have set to work vigorously to
raise funds with which to rebuild the ed
ifice at once.
All is activity and life on the Board
walk these balmy spring days. Men and
women from everywhere. IT seems, are
enjoying their first taste Of freedom in
the open air along the inspiring sea. The
weekend thronss are becoming denser
with each succeeding Sunday, and the re-
sort is fast taking on its cosmopolitan
summer air. Painters, paperhangers,
or trade are busy as proverbial bees
along the esplanade putting matters IN
shipshape for the crowds already COM

MORE TIMBER NEEDED.

As the time approaches for the
holding OF the party primaries, var
ious Office seekers are putting forth
their claims for recognition at the
hands of the voters. Some Of the
present officials are seeking second
term, while Others are bringing
themselves forward for the first
time, believing their qualifications
fit them for the particular work re-
quired in the particular office to
which they aspire.
Among the second termers to seek
the support Of their party followers
is Mr. W. l.. Clifford, the present
Secretary of State, who bases his
claims on the systematic manner
in which he has handled the affairs
Of his Office during his present term
