Death in Gasoline.
(ChaS. w. EmerSOn.D

(CnaS. w. EmerSOn.)
In the United States the igniting
OF the vapor from gasoline burns to
death more than twenty persons
every week and dangerous burns
more than sixty. No hour passes
without a house being set afrc by
gasoline explosion.
Gasoline, the lightest and most
dangerous fluid derived from petro-
lcum, continually gives off vapor that
makes an explosive of the air with
which it mike:
canful OF air or roomfui Of air
which mikes in it as much as one
twelfth Of the vapor Of gasoline, Is
more dangerous than canful or
roomful Of gunpowdcr Air with
that much or more gasoline vapor in
it eXplodcs harder and makes a hot
ter blaze than gunpowder.
Gunpowder will toy where it is
put and can be seen. Gasoline va
por, being little heavier than air,
falls TO the floor and cannot be seen.
II a painful Of gasoline is left in
closed room for a few hours the
house is blown to pieces as soon as
a match is struck in the room or if
a flying spark enters it.
When vapOr on the floor spreads
until it gets under a gas jet or lamp
or stove, it is then drawn up by the
current Of air made by the heat Of
the blaze and there is an explosion.
All other ignitable gases being light

on the winds.
One who uses gasoline for any
purpose in 4 room In which there is
candle, lamp, fire or spark Of fire
| Of any sort is likely to be badly
burned. A lighted cigar or pipe car

| used will explode the air. The
| ghost-like vapor will hunt for some
thing to ignite it.
A beautiful girl OF fifteen cleaned
her long kid gloves on a porch and
had them on her hands drying. Her
brother, as he left the house, struck
a match to light a cigar. In the ex-

AVIATOR pARsrALEE KILLED.
Gust OF Wind Caught Tail of His Ae.

Northyakima, WASH, June r.
Aviator Philip o. Parmalee was kill
ed here while attempting flight In
an aviation exhibition to-day. A
gust Of wind caught the tail of his
aeroplane and overturned the ma
chine.
Parmalee had been up about three
minutes on his first light of the day
and had travelled almost three miles
from the fair grounds at height of
400 feet when gust Of wind struck
the machine. The biplane crashed to
the ground, crushing the aviator be-
meath it.
Parmalees mechanician rushed to
the scene Of the disaster in an auto
mobile, but did not reach Parmalee
for 10 minutes after the fall. The
aviator was dead when the mechani-
clan arrived.

COMPARISONS ODIOUS,

one Of tho prctticSt spots in Oc0-
nee Is St Johns Lutheran cemetery
in WaIhalla. 1t is kept in such con-
dition that the exclamation Of the
visitor there is always one in admi-
ration OF its ClcanncsS, its beauty and
the general air Of careful attention.
Contrast it with Wcstyicw ccme-
tory, just across the street. Grown
up in weeds, washing into rutS and
gullicS, gates down or swinging on
one hinge, with objects here and
there to attract attention to It's un-
sightlncss, little wonder that many
lot-OwnCrs have neglected to keep
individual lots clean and attractive,
and less wonder still that the visit
Or'S remarks about this cemetery are
always uncOmplimontary, save as to
the natural beauty and tho possibili-
ties OF the place for an attractive
resting place of tho dead.
We understand that the Civic
League is contemplating doing some
work OF improvement for Walhalla
We do not know the nature of this
work or where II is contemplated to
do 1t, but we suggest the adviSabilty
OF tho Civic League transferring it's
energies, for the present at least, to
putting into prcscntable shape the
public cemetery.
II Is a pity that just across one
street from cemetery that would do
credit to any large city the town
cemetery should stand day after day

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS.

We congratulate tho local author
tiles on the evidences that are being
given that something in the way OF
public Improvement is to again be
taken up. Such matters always fur
nish ground for conEratulation and
approval. But they nevertheless call
for careful consideration and
thought beyond simply the work i'm
mcdiatcly in hand
Take, for instance, two good
pieces OF work that have just been
donc--tho paving OF section of
College street and the lowering Of the
sidewalk on Main street. between
College and Katherine streets. There
Is no question as TO each being an
improE Cmcnt SO far rs the work is
viewed individually, but arc they
such when considered in connection
with the town at large?
The private citizen should be COM
PEELED to conform. in making I'M
provcmrntS, to definitely locat ed
property lines. How much more,
then, should the town itself see that
its property lines are correct, cspc-
Cially in making some permanent
Improvements It strikes us most
forcibly that there should have been
no permanent paving on College
street until the street line was def
nitcly located. II is wcll known
fact that the building known as the
"City Han" sits far out on the side
ory has not played us mean trick.
This IS town property. Th"n why
not move the building so ;.s to con
form TO street lines, and lay tho side
walk in accordance with the lines
thus properly established?
Then the lowering Of the side
walk ON Main street is another i'm
proVcmcnt. But it may be questions
cd II the plan adopted, considered in
connection with the remainder OF the
block already paved, and also in con-
ncction with its relation to the next
biocK west, is a wso one? It would
nave been much better, wo think, to
nave taken as the basis Of grading
mere direct line from the paving at
Inc post Office clear through to the
cha OF the street, giving an easy and
convenient grade. in making which
not a tree need havo been in iurcd,
ana the property lines could have
been left intact without in Jury or in
convenience. The general results, we
DelieTc, would have been infinitely
better, though tho sidewalk would
nave been somewhat higher. But
Main street should DO graded gradu-
ally down east and west OF College
street, bringing the dirt into tho hol-
low. This would make the street
practically level and in good shapo
in its relation to tho sidewalk. AS
the sidewalk now stands, considered
in connection with It's continuation
west, it Is, we think, much worse
than before the work was done, save
that its dangerous condition has
been remcdied.
TO make a similar change on the
Keowee courier. [volume] (Pickens Court House, S.C.) 1849-current, 1912-06-05

west continuation OF this walk would
work untold damage to tho property
and we believe that tho property
owner has rights besides the privi-
lego OF paying taxes. II similar work
Is continued tho property-some Of
twill be left six or eight feet of
the sidewalk level.
Must a citizen, after owning prop
erty for twenty-five, forty, fifty years
on a recognized plane, If not on a
fixed grade, suffer his property to be
left high above or far below the side
walk level simply because our local
officials think such is tho proper
thing? Another set Of officers may
como in later and decide differently.
Where do we stand? Simply at the
mercy OF changing officials.
We have illustration Of this In the
recent past. At the corner Of Col
lege and Main streets the street and
sidewalk level was lowered material
Is, leaving house on the corner
with no convenient means Of ingress
or cgrcss The street was materially
improved; Of that there Is no doubt.
But what Of tho property? Since
that time the store room, we are told,
rents for two dollars month less
than it. did before, and thero has
never been renter for the residence
part Of the building since the lady
who owned it when the grading was
done disposed Of the property at the
first possible moment and moved to
another part OF town
We believe in public improvement,
but we also believe that property
owners have rights as regards the
which II fronts. a continuation
of arbitrary cutting down Of streets
and sidewalks without regard to
such rights must inevitably result in
the material lowering Of property
values. A purchaser Of property un-
der such conditions ought to be told
that the sidewalk level as recognized
for the past fifty years is at given
point, but you buy at your own peril. |
You may build here on what is now
the sidewalk level. but the local Off
cials have the right to cut the street
and side walk ten feet below you, and
YOU have no remedy. How much
property do you want in Walhalla
under such circumstances and condi-
tions? How much are YOU willing t.
pay for it?
Too much like "buying a pig in
poke gentlemen. In the absence
Of a fixed grade in the town of Wal
halla you have got to recognize old
levels and make the best of them, or
You will run property values to
level whore even Cheap dirt spec
ulator would be afraid to buy.
There Is another matter upon
which not a few citizens find cause
for complaint-a tendency to con-
fine to one spot all work done. 1t is
right and proper to improve perma-
nently when possible, but this should
not be done to the neglect Of cit
izcns in general, many OF whom are
forced in rainy weather to wade
through water ankle deep on bad
sidewalks where weeds have been
permitted to grow waste high in the
water ways at the edge, thus throw
ing the water on instead Of draining
the walks. This condition. with un-
even, waShed-out gullies, prevails on |
sections Of TugalOO, Mauldn and |
College streets, and we presume that |
similar conditions exist elsewhere |
of Main street. Citizens of Main |
street pay taxes just the same as |
those who live on the main thor
oughfarC.
