'fred" the match under the gasoline
buggy. Now it happened that the

Smoking to Be Stopped.

Statistics gathered through investi-
cation by the authorities of New York
city show that 3,245 fires in 1910 and
1882 in 1911 were caused by the care
lessness of smokers, mostly in places
of industry. Fire Commissioner john
son, who has been studying the laws
relating to the prevention of fires, as
well as to their extinguishment, has
discovered a statute which forbids
acts which endanger the health or
safety of any considerable number of
persons, and he is going to attempt to
make it applicable to smoking in fac
tories. He has therefore ordered 40,-
600 notices-printed in English, Yid-
dish and misunderstanding smoking
in factory buildings. These will be
universally distributed and followed
by vigilant and constant inspection to
prevent the violation Of his order
