Remarkable Decrease in Ell
Paso Losses Shown in Re
port of Fire Marshal.

FL Paso's fire record for the year
1911 is far lower than that of any 9TH
er city Of equal Importance in the state,
because during that time the fire losses
in this city amounted to only $2S.3S6. 49,
while during the preceding year they
amounted to 1925, 600
The year just closed breaks all rec
ords for small fire losses and a report
is being sent to the insurance compa-
MES by the fire department which may
tend to further benefit FL PasO by the
reduction in the insurance rates.
Fire marshall II. T. Reynaud has
compelled property owners to remove
boxes and other inflammable material
from the rear of their homes and bust
ness houses, and has caused the re-
mOval of other dangerous things which
might cause fires. Proof that this
campaign of prevention of fire has
been beneficial is given in the report
which shows that during the year 1911
the fire department was required to
answer 46 less calls than during the
year 1910
Worst Fire of Year.
The worst fire Of the year was that
Of April IS, a Sunday. when the roof
and was damaged and the rooms of the
Progress club on the top floor were

The whole amount of loss at this fire

yond all doubt he was the star Of the
series in every way from the view-
point of batting. timely hitting, run

Murray, playing left field in t,ve of
the eight games, was Herzogs closest
rival from the field. He out-classed

When Hooper raced to the right

According to the latest dope avail

of the Central Association before the

home of the Ducks. President JUS

officers of the club was out of the
city and as soon as he returned they

their franchise and they say that
