Cost of Fires in One City.

New York's fire loss, in the year
just passed amounted to more than
$l,oO0,000 a month. The fact is signifi-
cant that this figure represents an in
crease of nearly so per cent. over the
previous year. This is somewhat dis
couraging as an indication of prog
ress' because at that rate of increase
in a score of years New York wonld
have to be rebuilt annually
1t is significant, also, that careless
ness accounted for large number of
the fires, showing that department
for fire prevention is of more import
anee than a department for the over
coming of CONGREGATIONS. In addition
to the fire losses in Americas greatest
city it is interesting to note that the
estimate for the coming year for the
maintenance of the fire department is
the enormous sum of $s,537 900.

Editorial Comment
lsolatins the White Plague.
tWashington Times.


The educational campaign against
the White Plague is beginning TO
bear fruit Comes now the State of
New Jersey and proves its faith by
the passage of a law that isolates
eonsumptives who do not take pre-
cautions. prescribed by the State
board of health. to prevent the spread
of tuberculosis.
This may seem harsh, hut it seems
so only because it is new. There
really is no more defense of victims
of consumption being permitted TO
jeoparlize the health of others than
there is of the victim of any eonta-
sious disease being allowed TO COM
municate il 10 others. Society quar-
antines or places in hospitals per-
sons having diseases of far less witt
ating nature than tuberculosis with
out subjecting> itself To criticism, If
successful war is to be wagedfagainst
the White Plague it hehoeves all COM
monwealths to initiate the example Of
New Jersey. None doubts its wisdom
from the standpoint of medical Sci
ence. and in the end it is the most
kindly treatment Of the problem.

A New York correspondent sounds a
warning against the innocuous little
White sphere. He declares that the golf
ball. which long may have been con-
psidered by many rs more or less
dangerous missile has become a deadly
weapon and suggests that golfers car
rying half a dozen of these balls
through the city streets might be ar
rested under he concealed weapons law.
As proof of his warning dope" he
sights the accident to IA local golfer.
the other day. whose curiosity sent him
TO the hospital with the possibility of
loss of the sight of one eye.
This man discovered TO his sorrow
that the golf ball is explosive He was
attempting to find out what sort of liq-
uid might be in the center of the ball
with which he had been playing. He
was digging away at it with a jack
knife when the thing exploded and the
liquid center entered his optic with
the effect of an acid caustic.
Perhaps the moral might be found in
a suggestion to golfers TO confne their
energies TO the game rather than to an
investigation of the outfit.

meeting It was voted to raise $4,000 for
a wooden bridge across Wills strait to
connect Orrs and Bailey islands. and
also to raise 5000 to repair the 0rrs Is
land bridge connecting Orrs and Sebas-
coaegaa Island and to cut down the
grade Of Orrs Island hill. A few DAYS
ago another town meeting was held at
which sentiment in favor of these
road and bridge improvements was
strong. and 1t was decided that jas the
work was to be done. it should be done
right. Therefore il vas voted to in
crease the appropriation Tor repairing
Orrs Island bridge and for cutting
down the hill TO S5c00 and TO spend
$4,000 instead of $4,000 ON the bridge to
connect Orrs and Bailey islands. These
changes will make possible a ride from
Brunswick out into the ocean To ia
euishs cut where Half Way Rock
Light and the wide Atlantic can be seen.
From Brunswick to Orrs Island bridge
is eleven miles: from there To Wills
Strait four miles. and across Bailey Is
land two miles. The road Will be most
ly on high ground so that there will be
fine view over the hay and ocean.

Want Of courtesy Caused Disaster.

Every days investigation into the
Titanic disaster brings its develop
ments of Importance to the world.
Among the most recent Of these to at
Tract the attention Of the public is the
evidence that too much authority was
left TO subordinates> 1t is significant
that the wireless operator on board the
aoatirg palace had the fate of thou
sands OF souls at his fingers ends so
to speak. His lack of courtesy to 9TH
er operators on ships much nearer than
was the Carpathia prevented their hur-
rying to the assistance OF the doomed
sltir.
It also appears that attempts to send
friendly warning of dangers in her
path TO the Titanic We're given curt re-
eePtion by those in charge of the big
ships wireless outfit. 1t is not to be
supposed that sauey replies To those
who would have prevented disaster to
the greatest ship ahoat. were dictated
bg those in charge of the ship herself.
1t has not been shown that Captain
Smith or President Ismay OF the White
Star Lire instructed the wireless oper-
ator to convey 10 those sending kindly
warning an insolent retort. Thus we
are lead TO accept the conclusion that
lack of discipline on the part Of subor-
dinates and lack of control on the part
of officers were 10 blame for the alb
sence of responsibility that ended in
disaster.
Again it is shown that if all those
ships having wireless outfits had been
listening for possible calls of distress,
either one of several might have reach
ed the Titanic before she went down.
The Partisan was deaf to the S. o. S,
signal because her only operator was
off duty. The carpathia heard only
because her single wireless operator
happened to be ON duty al the moment
the call was sounded.
Thus we find one of the strongest
lessons in the fate of the Titanic and
rs 1000 victims is that commanders in
care Of the lives of hundreds of human
beings should COMMAND in spite of
the so-called pride of the ship" which
seems 20 have pervaded the irresponsi-
bile and inexperienced help on board.
Another lesson should be that it is abb
salutely necessary for ships provided
with the ears of wireless biography to
he always listening for the possible
eall 70 the assistance Of the human
freight of some wounded ship

Direct Election of Senators.

About the only event of real import
ance in Congress last week, was the
agreement between the two houses on
the form of the Constitutional amend
ment providing for the direct election
of Il. S. senators. The bill. practically
as II passed the Senate, was accepted
by line House conferees after an almost
endless conference.
1t viii be remembered that the Sem
ate claimed the right to a certain
amount Of federal control over the new
way Of electing L. S. senators. 1t re-
served TO Congress the right to inquire
whether elections had been held in
compliance with the law; whether any
class Of citizens had been disfran-
cbised This was strongly opposed by
southerners.
With this progress made It seems
probable that a new constitutional
amendment will be submitted to the
states for ratification within a reason
able time; and that within a few years
we shall have direct election of L.. S.
senator's. II is one of the accomplish
ments Qike the overturn in china)
which we should have deemed inpossi-
bic only a few years back.
