HEROIC ACTION
BY THE SISTERS
Children and Aged Let From
Blazing Building.

jersey City N. j., Dec. 19.-Twenty.
five blind children n a score Of aged
blind persons were led to safety by the
heroism Of two Of the sisters of the
Catholic Home For the Blind in this
city when one of the buildings went up
in flames.
The blaze was first discovered In the
boiler room Of the three story wooden
structure which Is one Of the -four
buildings Of the home, standing at the
corner Of Magnolia and Ba1win ave
nues. The twenty-five blind children
were sleeping peacefully when Sister
Mary Alphonsis rushed into their ward
and awakened them. She helped the
smaller mes wrap themselves In blan-
kets and put on their slippers, while
some of the older ones had to clothe
themselves as best they could before
the sister hastily guided them all out
Of the building. Then she telephoned
to fire headquarters, and Captain COST
gan arrived with the apparatus in a
few minutes. he Immediately saw the
danger of the situation and sem in a
second alarm.
The children were meanwhile dis
tributed among the houses of neigh
bors, where they will remain for a day
or two. In another part of the building
Father Downs, ar elderly blind priest,
was saying mass for a number of the
aged charges Of the home. Sister Mary
Alphonsis and Sister Sebastian led the
feeble inmates out of the place, and
they, too, were taken care Of by neigh
bors.
The flames had by this time gained
great Roadway. Captain Costigan was
working with his men on the second
floor of the structure when the door
caved In, and he fell through to the
ground floor, breaking two ribs. He
vas taken to the City hospital.
The children had been engaged for
the past few weeks in making such
things as their blindness would permit
for the coming Christmas holidays
Most Of this was needlework, owe
which they had been working labor1-
ously for many hours under the In.
struction Of Sister Sebastian. All OF
this was destroyed. The actual loss In
money is estimated at $1,000.

Progressive Party.

Eds. Freeman Tribune: What or
who is it? Is it as some jealous
ones assert Theodore Roosevelt, or is
it the body of voters that believe in
and uphold the principles of the ma
tional progressive party as set
forth in the platform? l attended
Saturday p. m. what was advertised
to be convention of Hamilton
county progressives to select dele
gates to the progressive state con-
vention. But the meeting was not
opened with prayer and the proceed
ings were not altogether harmonious
throughout, and were not adjourned
shouting the battle cry, '"Onward,
Christian Soldiers" So it seemed l
could hardly have been in a progress
sive convention. 1t savored more
of a. genuine old fashioned caucus
row. OF all who took part in the
discussions, only one seemed to
know for certain where he was at,
only one was for full and straight
progressive ticket from president to
constable. 1t was Keltz against the
field. The convention, I think, was
unanimous to a man for Roosevelt
but a large majority were for state
republican candidates, principles and
methods. ] found myself in accord
with Keltz in the matter of full
progressive state ticket, but who
should be the candidates on this new
party ticket? While 1 would insist
that they be the candidates selected
at our state primary, Keltz very
likely wishes to have an entirely
different set in opposition to the
ones l would want to support. I
would insist that they should be
the candidates nominated by the
state primary, because they were the
choice of the majority of the people
at large and not by a caucus or COM
mittee. I would like to vote for all
the candidates selected by the prim-
airy, not as republicans or republic
can candidates, but as progressive
candidates.

AUTOMOBILE
REGISTRATION .
!. RECEIPTS BIG
Nearly Half Million Dollars Paid
So Far This
Year.
THE CARS NUMBER 41,921
Amount Paid Into Secretary Of
States Office is $751;
657.81.
THE CARS NUMBER 41,921

Des Moines, Sept. 2.-Receipts for
registration of motor vehicles at the
Office of the secretary of state so far
in 1912 amount to $457,657.S1.
There are 41,921 automobiles regis
tered, which makes an average reg
istration fee of $40 after deducting
$3S,477.81 received as follows: For
the registration of $500 motor-cy-
cles at SO each, s11,67O; 1,4S0 deal
ers' numbers at SIS each, $4,000.
1867 extra plates to dealers and to
replace lost plates, $3,367; and
$91O.S1, the estimated fees for
transfers of numbers.
In a letter to an inquirer, w. c.
Hayward, secretary of state, says he
is satisfied these figures are nearly
exact. The new law going into eff
feet so shortly after the adjourn
ment of the general assembly last
year, required radical change in
the work of the Office and necessitat-
ed the employment of fifteen new
clerks in the decentralization of the
work. 49,.
Formerly one registration for each
car was all that was required, but
now new registration must be made
at the first of each year. The fee is
based on the horse power of the ma
chine, if it is operated by a gasoline
engine. ~ frat. ...
Collections for 1912 were begun
in November in order to prevent
congestion early in January.
There are automobiles with num-
Der plates above 41,921, but this is
due to the fact that numbering them
was begun with 1901 instead of at
number l. An attempt was made to
save the low numbers for motorcy-
cles, but they have exceeded the g.
900 reserved for them.

Liked Healy's Speech.

Eds. Freeman-Tribune: was
highly entertained and pleased with
the address of Michael Healy Of Fort
Dodge at the recent old soldiers re-
union. 1t was a speech of candor
and good will to the veterans, yet
not of fulsome glorification and
praise that we sometimes hear on
such occasions. To the audience at
large it was one of uplift and en-
couragement The great social,
economic and political unrest of
which he spoke and so much depre-
Gated he attributed to our lack of
respect for law. He thought this
lack of respect commenced with the
child in the home This struck me
as being lamentably too true. La
mentable, indeed, it is if true that
the disrespect and all the untoward
conditions and vices, the outcome
of its growth and spread in this our
Christian civilization of today,
should have its beginning in the
home. If the fountain is impure
how shall the stream be clear? If
the child does not respect the par
ent, can We expect the pupil to re-
spect the teacher, or the citizen the
law?
Seemingly the surest way to cure
a diseased condition is to find out
the cause and what leads up to it,
For a guess as to the cause I would
say it was disobedience and to get a
vivid idea of what leads up to the
cause in the home let us take no.
