PENSIONS FOR
TELEPHONE EMPLOYEES.
District Manager Smith Announces
New Provision of Reward for
Faithful Services.

C. B. Smith, District Manager of
the Delaware and Atlantic Telegraph
& Telephone Company, the local COM
pany operating in this vicinity, an
nounces a new provision by which
the employees will be rewarded for
faithful service on the Insurance &
Pension plan as follows:
"A fund of $10,000,000 for pensions,
sick benefits and life insurance will
be available on January 1st for the
175, 900 employees of the Bell system
and associated interests and their
families and dependents, amounting
altog ether to more than quarter of
million people.
This $1O,OO0,000 fund will be made
from year to year by annual appro-
priations on the part of the American
Telephone & Telegraph Company and
Associated Companies, and the Wes-
tern Union Telegraph Company and
the Western Electric Company.
The plan for the distribution of
this fund has been characterized as
the most liberal, comprehensive and
ideal ever inaugurated. President L.
N Vail has provided combined bene-
fits for superannuation, sickness, ac-
cident and death from an industrial
army more than twice as large as the
standing army of the United States.
This provision is made entirely at
the expense of the various companies
interested, without contribution of
any kind from the semployees them
selves. The application of these var
led benefits will be strictly democratic
and will be for the benefit of all en-
ployees of every rank. The plan will
provide for free change of employ
ment from one company to another,
with full credit for combined terms
of service.
The Bell system and associated in
terests provide employment for about
175,O00 people; of this number $780,
900 are employees of the Bell Tele-
phone system. The total yearly pay
for the whole group is about $115,-
100000, something over SSO,OO0,00O
being paid out in wages by the Bell
| Telephone system alone
Pensions.
Male employees who have reached
the age of sixty years and who have
been twenty years or more In service,
may retire on pensions They may
be retired at the option of the COM
pany when they have reached the age
of ffty-fve years and have been
twenty-five years or more in service.
The pension age of female employees
is in each case five years younger than
that of male employees Any en-
ployee who has been thirty years IN
service, regardless of age, may be
pensioned on the approval of the
President of the Company.
The amount Of the pension is au-

more, a hospital needs something more
than a building, and an endowment
sufficient to maintain such a hospital
as would constitute a fitting memorial
would be beyond the hopes OF thpSs
upon whom would fall the burden Oh
raising it.
The consensus of opinion, however,
seems to favor a memorial arch- II
is suggested that every state and OF
ganiZatiOn in America be invited 10
contribute a stone to it, after the man
ner of those contributed by various
states and organizations to the Nasu-
ingtOn Monument. In such way the
memorial could be given added lntef-
est
The question of a site for the mem
eriaI is one upon which there Is a wac
difference of opinion. Some want II
built as an arch spanning fehHsS !
vania avenue, carrying out the luSa
of some of the great triumphaI arches
of the Appian Way and other Sreat
highways in and around Rome 1heIe
is another contingent which urges lhdI
it ought to be on what IS known d
Meridian Hill, which OVerlooks WASH
ington and is on the merriam Oh + Inc
capital city. An advantage OF tnlS
site would be that 1t would practlcaIly
be at one end of Sixteenth sTeet,
with the white house at the other eno'
each visible to the other. Still others
favor A site on The Mall, where the
Grant and Sherman have their sites
1t is probable that The Mall site meets
with the widest favor
Congress VIII Select Site.
As soon as congress meets next De-
cember, bills looking to the choice OF
a site and its donation by congress
will be introduced There the fight
between the rival ideas as to the mem
oriaI location will be fought out. 1t
is believed that there will be no diff
ficulty encountered in getting con-
gress to donate the site, once an agree
ment is reached as to wnere the
memorial shall be located
A large number of sculptors and
artists have offered to design the mem
orial as their contribution. Frances
LOring is one of the women who have
proposed to do this free of charge.
Whatever design is chosen it will not
be accepted until it is passed upon by
the Fine Arts commission, 20 make sure
it harmOniZes with the general scheme
for the Identification of Washington.
F. D. Millet, one of the members of
that commission, will be one of the
men whose bravery is COMMUNICATED
in the proposed memorial.

MEXICANS RESCUED
FROM DEATH IN FIRE
Thirteen Fighting Fire in a
Canyon Have Narrow
Escape From Death.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 30.-Thir-
teen Mexican firefighters were rescued
early today from Devils canyon, where
they had been hemmed in since Monday
morning without food and water by the
flames that are sweeping through the
brush on the San Gabriel range All
were taken to Azusa by the rangers and
it was said that with good care they
had a fair chance of recovery.
The men were impressed into the fire
fighting line last Sunday and sent into
Devils canyon. Nothing more was
heard from them until early today, when
two men reported that they were sure
the others were dead.
By means OF a rope hung over a preci-
pice 800 feet high, volunteer entered
the fire-swept canyon and found the men
in a pitifIl condition. All were fam
ished and delirious from heat and the
lack of water. Their clothing had been
singed and in most cases was nearly
torn from their bodies by contact with
scrub oak.
One by one the unfortunates were
tied to the end of the rope and heaved
up to the top. Several times it was
necessary to resort to force in order to
get the crazed men fastened so they
could be pulled out,

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
IN NOGALES, ARIz.
Houses at a Premium Be
cause of Many Refu-
gees From Mexico.

Nogales, ARK, Aug SO.-The South
ern Pacific Railway company is spend
ing a large sum OF money in NOgales
at present in the erection of complete
new stock pens. = concrete dipping
vat was recently finished for facilitat
ing the fall shipments of cattle from
Mexico, and the old stock pens have
been torn down. The section hOuS
has also been torn down and is being
rebuilt in a vacant space just north
from the company cottages, as the
new stock pens will occupy the former
site of the section house. 1t is esti-
mated that these improvements alone
will cost in the neighbOrhOOd of $1,000.
The new cement block cottage I'M
der construction for Mrs. Nolan on the
corner of Crawford street and SOnOrita
avenue is nearly completed and will be
occupied as soon as finished by South
ern Pacific agent, w G. Bowman, and
his family, while the residence now
occupied by Mr. Bowman will be taken
by rOadmaster Randolph. of the So
nora division, and his family.
Houses are at a premium in NOgaleS
at the present time, owing to the
great influx of Mexican refugees. Not
even a room can be secured and prices
as high as 500 per month have been
offered for furnished homes. The va
riOus hotels are crowded and many Of
the guests are sleeping on cots. Many
of these people intended going TO the
coast and to Tucson, but upon reaching
the border decided TO remain in No
gales on account of the reports COM
ing from California as tONthe preYa-
lence of lnfantle paralysis there.
