New York.-Among the occupations
of New York city are many of an I'M
usual nature, which could not exist
elsewhere than in center OF vast
population. Specialized occupations
these are, which demand huge pop
ulation from which 10 draw their pat

which in smaller cities could be but

There is the sawdust man, for in
stance, who in New York is very i'm
portant business man. The wholesale
sawdust dealer advertises all kinds
of sawdust and requests that you will
telephone your needs so that there
may be an early delivery.
1t used to be that anyone who want
ed sawdust went to the sawmill ard
asked for as much as he wanted. There
was only one kind of sawdust in the
good old days and that was an unim-
portant product which anybody could
have for the asking. Now the saw
dust wholesaler will tell you that saw
dust is very valuable product and
that the sawdust business is offering
greater opportunities every day.
There are about sixty kinds of saw
dust on the market, so says the saw
dust expert, and all of them have their
stated uses in the realm of trade.
Mahogany sawdust is just as aristo-
cratic and elegant a product as ma
hogany furniture. 1t is useful for
smoking-not as tobacco. Mahogany
sawdust is employed because OF the
good, clear kind of work that it does
in smoking hams, fish, etc.
All the way from the preparation OF
food to the polishing of precious met
ais. ranges the usefulness OF sawdust.
The hardwood dusts are used for pol
ishng in some jewelers. shops and
cheaper sawdusts are used for polish
ing less valuable metal work. In pack
ing and making cushions, for the Gov
ering of floors and in the fur business
sawdust is useful.
There are several firms in New York
who have no other care in this world
than to discover the dark secrets of
why chimneys smoke. They don't
bother to attend to the big buildings,
either. They are almost entirely de-
voted to solving the secrets of the DO
mestic hearth. Business is plentiful,
too, for nowadays everybody who
builds new house in the country or
the suburbs of New York wants AT
least one open fire in it, and, strange
to say, there are more new chimneys
that smoke than there are new chin
neys that don't smoke. So there you
are with an excellent opportunity for
tie smoking chimney doctor-and all
directly in the New York zone. In
less closely populated regions the new
householder with smoking chimney
is obliged to consult an architect, a
mason or an Oldest inhabitant-usual

NO OFFICERS AMONG KILLED
Men We're On Their Way To Meridian,
Miss. To Participate In The
Mississi ppi-AIabama
Fair.

Mobile. Ala Twenty persons were
killed and 100 injured in wreck
near Mobile at 80 o'clock Sunday al

with soldiers from Fort Morgan. Ala,
en- route 10 the Alabama-Mississippi
Fair at Meridian, Miss. turned over on
the Buckatunna trestle between State
Line and Buckatunna. 60 miles north
Of Mobile.
None OF the officers was killed,
though all we're reported injured with
the exception of Capt Bernard Taylor.
The other commissioned officers on
the train besides Captain Taylor We're
Captain Greer, Lieuts Calvin Smith
and Edwin Barlow.
The wreck was caused by the en-
CINE tender jumping the track when
about POO feet from a trestle The
engine was not derailed and passed
over the trestle. The tender broke
loose from the engine, however and
with the baggage car and three
coaches plunged % feet TO the ground.
There were 179 men in the detach-
ment and they were going to Meridian
to participate in the Mississippi-Ala-
bama Fair. Three officers were in
iurad. but are reported not seriously
hurt
The train. running as second sec
ton to No. !, left Mobile at 1903
O'Clock Sunday afternoon, and was
made up OF three coaches and bag
gage car. Most of those killed lost
their lives by being crushed to death
when the coaches struck the bottom
of d deep ravine and were torn into
fragments. The train was running at
moderate speed
Engineer R. c. Deasley, of Meridian,
Miss. was in charge of the engine.
H. Y. Pruitt was the conductor. Ev
cry member of the train crew was
said TO have escaped except Conductor
Pruitt, who had his jawbone broken.
Survivors of the wreck worked hero
ically Many of the soldiers who were
caught in the wreckage We're rescued
with difficulty.
One private, whose hat bore the
name Of Allen, lost both legs which
were torn off almost at the hips, but
he was hurled clear of the wreckage.
For some moments the man, conscious,
lay in plain sight of his wounded com
rades Death ensued shortly after
ward Allen stoically said he felt no
pain. but wished he had time to smoke
a cigarette
Al least 90 are expected to die from
their injuries as they are seriously
hurt
Sixteen Of the dead were brought
here. A company Of local militia was
called into service and lent its aid in
carrying the wounded from the coaches
Of the relief train and placing them in
the ambulances and wagons.
Immediately after some order was
maintained Capt. Bernard Taylor call
ed the roll and only So men responded
as being unhurt, and even those were
badly shaken up.

ODD CITY TRADES

ly with results much more doubtful
than when the chimney specialist is
called in.
In line with the chimney expert is
the man who devotes his life to defec-
tive hot water pipes He calls him
self a domestic engineer, but hastily
asserts, on being interviewed, that he
isn't intending any interference with
the domestic relations court and that
his domestic engineering ceases when
the hot water pipes are in perfect Or
der and there are no general heating
repairs to be made in the fiat. He is
a specialist in these two kinds of work
and he is on tap for emergency serv-
i've all the time.
Useful in the world of business as
well as that of the home is the firm
which takes care of floors.
Making over store fronts is an in
dustry which has found so many pat
rons in New York that a number of
firms have found it profitable to set
aside all other forms of building and
devote themselves wholly to helping
New York merchants improve the ap.
pearance of their establishments by
putting . new face on the matter. All
classes of merchants, from the small
dealer in the suburb to the great dry
goods firms which do millions OF dol
lars worth of business in a year, in
dulge in the luxury of new kind OF
front to their business homes every
once in so often. The new store front
builder is also an architect and his art
demands all the taste, discretion and
sense of appropriateness which are
required for the erection of an entire
new building, with perhaps a greater
degree of ingenuity. In line with the
new store front enterprises there are
certain firms of architects which have
made a reputation for their ability in
the making over of house fronts in
city houses, SO that, while the remod-
eled residences fit perfectly into their
place in the city block, they at the
same time are greatly improved in ap-
pearance and are given an originality
of aspect which enables the occupants
of the mansion and the friends of the
family to recognize a residence with
out referring to the number on the
transom.
