WHIFf
OF "Cig' Enjoyed By Girl
Causes Big Fire

Briar Cliff Manor, N. Y, Feb. 12--
The 20 girl students and 10 teachers
of Miss Knoxs school here stood for
two hours in the snow last night and
watched the flames consume the
school building.
Several of the pupils suffered Sc
verely from exposure to the cold, and
one girl narrowly escaped with her
life when she attempted to go back
into the burning building to save some
Of her personal effects.
The fire is said to have been started
by cigarette thrown into the dumb
waiter when the call was sounded for
the pupils to assemble at the dinner
table.
Several Of the girls were in the in.
firmary, where the fire started, Just
before dinner, and the question has
arisen who was smoking cigarette
The school building, with all its con
tents, was destroyed. The loss Ia es
timated at more than 100000.

CLEVER BEES

Bees appear to understand the i'm
portance of hygiene. II snail, for
example, enters the hive, they at once
kill 1t and convert its shell into a
tomb by sealing up the mouth Of the
shell. If, however, the shell is brok-
en- or cracked SO that 1t is not air
tight, the bees will then inclose the
whole shell in wax. They use their
wax with great economy, and make a
little go long way, If two or three
intruders are to be dealt with the wax
tombs are made side by side, thus
causing each division wall to answer
double purpose. Expulsion of the
intruder is practiced when the body is
not too large, or when 1t can be dis
membered. l &

Party Had Narrow Escape
From Severe Injuries

A narrow escape from injury was ex-
perienced by Mrs. w. F. Rimer and a
sled load Of boys on North Mckenzie
street Sunday evening when buggy,
in which Mrs. Rimer was sitting. was
struck by the sled and badly damaged.
At about $3.50 o'clock number Of
boys were coasting down the hill at
the northern end of Mckenzie street
when their sled became unmanageable
and swerved to the side of the road
where the buggy, in which Mrs. Rimer
was sitting, was standing. The escape
from injury by the boy who was guild
ing the sled was almost miraculous
as the front wheel of the vehicle was
struck with great forse and was torn
off. The rear wheel on the same side
of the buggy was broken to such an
extent as to render 1t useless. No one
was injured.

their hands to said commissioners.
The law Is very plain as to the
duties of the commissioners In regard
to the home and If the people will
look the law up they will find that
we, said commissioners, have our
hands tied, as we cannot spend one
cent more this year than was spent
last year.
Furthermore, the law says, the com
missioners cannot even make levy
to maintain home without the con-
sent of the voters, SO you see we will
have to be governed by the people.
Knox county, at the present time has
some "a or 26 children which are
costing the county near s2,500 per
year, which would help to maintain
a home and in closing will say in
regard to location of said home, the
first thing to be considered is the
school question.
Hoping this may throw little light
on the subject in regard to the duties
of said commissioners.
