JOKER IS NARROWED ON ROOF
Sees Tables Turned on Fire
Bell RInger--lndienaat At
Treatment.

Riverhead. L. I.--Attempting to
spring a joke on the staid residents
here by ringing the firebell and bring
Ing them out of their houses IN alarm,
Sandy Adams. a young politician,
found himself marooned on the roof
of the fire house and a target for the
jibes of the villagers for an hour and
q half
It has long been practice Of young
men here to ring the bells on the fire
house on the Fourth OF July and send
out false alarms. The town board de-
cided to put stop to the practice and
special officers we're appointed for the
purpose. Adams climbed TO the roof
Of the fire house by means Of a ladder
which he pulled up after him. When
the bell began ringing people rushed
to the street to find where the fire
was. Adams lowered the ladder to
the ground, but before he could de-
scend, Rutland one OF the special Off
GERS, pulled IT away. Adams remained
perched on the roof Of the building
for an hour and a half
When he was taken from the roof
he was highly indignant. He said he
heard the fire bell and climbed TO the
roof to see who was ringing it.

Sailors Paradise, One Of the
Towns Noted Resorts.

Hamburg.-It was nine O'Clock and
still daylight in Hamburg. We sat in
a pavilion cafe overlooking the Bin
nen-Alster. The lake was full Of
boats: sail boats. rowboats and ca
noes. Every now and then little
steamboat whizzed in from the Aus
sen Alster, it's tunnels being lowered
and raised with a snap as it passed
under the low bridge. A few bicycle
launches were still scootipg over the
water. ridiculous things with the rider
high in the air, pedaling wheels that
seemed TO run right over the water.
The swans were still hanging around
the edge OF the water trying to coax
the loiterers to throw them crumh
Or two. One large Sne was away out
IN the middle of the lake vigorously
following a launch that had the sign
'Liebnitz Cakes" tackled on its side.
We wondered II the swan could read.
l do not believe Americans love
waterfronts as much as Europeans
do, for We only use our river banks
for mills and dumps, while in Europe
they make theirs the most beautiful
part of their cities, and there they
spend their leisure hours and center
all their love.
At ten o'clock 1t was not yet dark,
SO we took a trip to st. PAUL., the
sailors resort in Hamburg Several
big liners had docked that day and
sailors simply flooded and owned the
place, Everything was going at a
