Raigorod-A small town of southern
Russia. 81 miles south of southwest
OF Tcherkazy and 1S5 miles east of
north of Odessa, on the Tiasmin riv-
or. an affiuent of the Dnieper. The
inhabitants. about 1000, are engaged
chiefly in the manufacturing of sugar.
There is some commerce in grain and
cattle.
Passavant-En-Argonn - A small
town on the southern border of the
Forest Of Argonne, about six miles
southeast of St Menehould. At one
end OF the village is a steep mountain.
the sides of which are covered with
vineyards. Two hundred Yards from
the town Is a monument bearing the
words. Here have the Prussians mas
sacred 40 French soldiers, disarmed
and prisoners of war. August 25, 1870"
On this date the French volunteers on
the Marine received orders to retire to
St Melehould. The detachment of
1900 men was overtaken by the Ger
man cavalry and fled in disorder to-
ward La Bassee. The Prussians cap
tured SAB men and % officers. At
Passavant some of the prisoners were
allowed to visit their homes in the
neighborhood. and many took advant-
age OF the opportunity to attempt TO
escape. During the excitement a shot
was fired. 1t was the signal for a wild
scene. The Prussian regulars, quar- f,
tered just outside the town, rushed in. /
and by the time order was restored. |
17f French soldiers were lying on the
ground, 40 OF them dead.

the Still city scribe IS giving inside
dope or merely letting his imagination
ramble is not known, but he has
cooked up a story which purports to
show how Springfield is to have base
hall this season and how Rock Island
IS to pay its debts, leaving everything
lovely for the capital city club. Spring
fields club having been transferred
to Rock Island, the intention is to let
this city square up its accounts. while
the Quincy team will be turned over
TO Springfield and Quincy will be left
out in the cold. Here Is the story:
"a contest OF wits was staged in
Omaha yesterday. President Al r.
Tearney of the Three-Eye league,
fearing that the fve-mile rule would
be abrogated as the result of the Cen
trail associations fight TO break into
Rock Island, took the bull by the
horns and transferred the Springfield
franchise in the old Three-Eye to Rock
Island, at the same time assuring the
Capital city hackers that they would
be reimbursed for all players and that
the clubs Indebtedness TO the league
would be paid up by the Rock Island
syndicate. which, in all probability.

makes Springfield a city to be pre-
ferred. even il an entirely new start

Hair Made Beautiful

Beautiful hair. thick, fluffy, lus.
trous and absolutely free from dan.
druff is not so much a gift of nature
as matter of care and proper nour.
ishment. Hair is like plant-it
will not grow healthy and beautiful
unless 1t has attention and proper nu.
triment.
Partisan Sage, daintily perfumed
and easily applied, tones UP and invig,
crates the roots of the hair, and fur.
nishes the necessary nourishment to
not only save and beautify the hair,
but also stimulate ii to grow long,
heavy, soft, fluffy and radiant with
life.
When used frequently and rubbed
into the scalp. it Will simply work
wonders. Just one application stops
itching head, removes dandruff and
cleanses the hair of all dust and ex-
cessive oil.
Since Partisan Sage, which can be
obtained from Wells-Haymaker Com
pany or at any drug or toilet counter,
never disappoints. it is no longer ne
cessary for any woman to be humili-
ated because of thin, treaky, faded,
lifeless or unattractive hair-and as
you know, pretty hair, more than any
thing else, helps you to retain a youth
ful appearance.-Adyertisement.

FIRE PREVENTION

taught how.
\ Wheer fran buildings are beng
built, they should be painted inside
and out with tireproof paint. On
these frame buildings for roofs and
the like asbestos should be employed.
Now speak of an important mat
ter when / say that every building
should be provided with fire appar-
atus. This applies to big or little
buildings. public or private. AL,
apartment houses should be provided
with standpipes and should have out
side fire department connection.
All Office and loft buildings Should
be equipped with standpipes at least
four inches in diameter, with outlet
on each floor, fire department stand
ard. with sufficient hose on each out
let to cover the entire floor In case
or more than one stairway in building
same equipment should be provided,
with outside shines connection, with
clapper valves, so that the fire depart
ment can readily connect to same,
thereby saving a great deal of time
In dragging hose to enormous
heights. In buildings used for man
utactur!ng purposes each floor should
be equipped with fire extinguishers,
buckets. metal receptacles for sweep-
ings, and telegraph system for the
purpose Of drilling employees and
transmitting alarms, and a sprinkler
system. With the above equipment
and proper fire drills instituted and
continued at proper intervals there
is no reason why there should be any
loss of life. All theaters, hotels
places of amusement, etc. are
thoroughly equipped as above stated
Every building of any description
should be provided with fire appu
ances of some kind, such as fire eX-
tinguishers, pals Of water, hooks,
axes, etc. to be placed in such a
manner that in case of any small fire
1t could be Immediately extingushed
as great deal of time is Generally
lost in looking for a pail of water
or something to eXtinguish a small
fire. The public should also ac-
quaint itself with the location of the
nearest fire alarm box so that In casa
of fire there would be no DELAY in
notifying the fire department. a
great many fires gain rapid headway
by occupants OF various premises try
ing to eXtinguish the fire without no
tifying the department. The hest
way is to Immediately send in an
alarm, and in the meantime endeayor
to extinguish tie fire, II possible. If
the fire departments apparatus or
men are not required they can readi-
ly return to their quarters. All fac
tories and buildings which have large
floor areas should be provided with
large chemical engines on wheels SO
that 1t could be moved quickly from
place to place. and certain employees
organized into private Ere brigades.
Also all factories and loft buildings
should be equipped with automafic
fire alarms and automatic sprinklers

Board OF Underwriters.

York Fire DEPARTMENT.
To bring such changes about re-
quires the hearty cooperation of the
respective fire chiefs, the press, bust
ness men, insurance underwriters,
builders, architects, etc. and once let
them work in harmony on mutual
lines, each sacrificing a little in their
respective branches-this assured
the rest will be easy and the i'm
provement marked and beneficial.
Cautious care in the little things
that seem so trifiing as to be hardly
worthy Of attention are really i'm
portant. II Mrs. OLeary had placed
her lantern in safe place the COW
would not have kicked 1t over when
she was milking it, and the great
Chicago conhagration would not have
occurred.
While 1t may seem small, but the
exercise of care in such things as the
selection OF metallic cans for refuse
in lieu of wooden boxes might be-
come an important factor in pre-
venting fires. Where kerosene is
used in the suburbs safety lamps
and lanterns should be employed as
they will not explode, but will go out
when overturned. 1T might seem alb
surd to mention that fires should not
be linked with kerosene, but II the
admonition were always observed
the fatalities from this source that
one reads in the daily papers would
not have occurred.
The use of wax tapers and candles
in wood houses and cellars should
be discontinued. l consider 1t very
important that cellars should have a
small light continuously burning, as
many fires are caused by lighted
matches. This applies also to dark
Railways. OIL rags, waste, mops and
the like should be kept in metallic
cans after use. 1t is better. If pos
sible, to destroy such things imme-
diately after use. You often see
lighted matches thrown into waste
baskets. The obvious thing is al
ways likely to occur. The baskets
themselves should be OF wire instead
of wicker work. Safety oil cans
should be used as they will not ex-
plode or spill when upset.
SAFETY doors Tor schools and rae
tories should be the universal thing
and not the exception Great care
should be empolyed to see that the
electric light system is in proper or
der, for many fires have their origin
in poor insulation. Good housekeep-
ing is a preventative OF fires. This
sees that cellars are kept clean and
prevents an accumulation OF rub
bish. A little thing like a safety
match is worthy OF attention.
When frame buildings are being
dren has received attention for
sometime. 1t is a matter OF such i'm
portance that / cannot emphasize 1t
too much. These drills should be Sc
rious matters, and the children should
ikewise be taught what to do in ex-
tinguishing fires, There are lots OF
fires that a child could put out il
