Fire Commissioners
 Protect Apparatus
 With Extinguishers

The decision by the board of fire commissioners at their meeting last evening to purchase 80 Fyrene fire extinguishers as additional equipment for the wheeled apparatus was based upon several reasons First, was the protectdon of the depar tmentss own motor apparatus against gasoline fires; second, the necessity of something with which to combat electric fires due to currents of high voltage At a recent demonsration Chief D. E. Johnson saw Pyrene extinguish an electric arc of e.6o0svolt and several hundred amperes, this without the slightest danger to the person using the exhnguisher- This, added to his previous Knowledge of Pyrene's won derfui eh1ciency in handling gasoline fires, led Chief Johnson to the de- cisfon that the department should have Pyrene as soon as possible As the chiefs opinion had the backing of the boards own Knowledge, in the case of several of the members based on experience, last evenings action easily followed

 Springfield lawyers who traced the history of the woman declare that she became estranged from other re1a- lives during Civil War times, when about to step upon the altar with the man of her choice.

 When seen at his home on lower Main street, Mrs Mills declared that and was most unexpected, for her husband and seen his aunt but little during his 80 years Of residence in Bridgeport.
 Owing to her secluded life, appar- ent hatred of all men, and extreme love of animals, Miss MagiI1 was a woman men seldom cared to come in contact with None visited her her rnitage except those who had casual business It was declared at the Mills shomes today that the reason for her rousseau having been left, among other things, to the local man could not be accounted for as MT.

The main method of controlling pear blight, however, consists in cut ting out the diseased tissue wherever found and disinfecting the wound and the instruments to avoid spreading the disease. In the great majority of cases fortunately the blight comes to a definite standstil1 in the bark, after killing a certain distance, and stops. The germs die out in the dead bark, a crack or crevice forms between the live and dead bark, and the case ends itself naturally and heals out. In many cases, however, the disease, while dying out in the older parts, keeps on spreading on the margin, the germs renewing themselves by multiplication and infecting new areas of fresh bark. When they manage to live through the dry, hot summer weather and keep alive until autumn, when the leaves drop from the trees, they almost invariably live over win ter, and though greatly checked by the cold weather of the winter, are not killed Ior apparently even injured by the cold. Such cases become hold over blight, and by this means the supply of germs is kept over in the orchard for the next season. The hoId-over blight cases may extend

lowed to reach America by cable.
4 correspondent of the Associated Press,
writing from London few weeks ago, said
Since the censorship has shut down on the
publication of the details of the visits of Ger
man aircraft London is full of daily rumors that
spread all over town. There has been no gen
eral criticism of withholding the locality of the
raids as it may be helpful to the Germans to
hear where their bombs dropped. But sup
preston Of details has had its customary effect
and every day there are stories of raids that
never happened and Of destruction that never
took place. In fairness to the censors it should
be admitted that while their facts when pub
lisled are meagre they are regarded as true
though the delay III issuing them is hopelessfy
needless from newspaper point of view. In
the case of the worst raid, happening around
midnight as usual, the facts were not published
in time for the regular issues of the afternoon
papers of the following day. Meanwhile rum
ors had piled on rumors and the man in the
street was prepared to hear that hundreds had
been killed.
As invariably happens in such cases, rumor
magnifes the truth and very probably the
stories told by the Lapland passengers were
considerably enhanced by what they merely
suspected.

A coMMoN-sENsE DECISION.

Police Judge Monsarrat's decision that
''iunnersn or ticket-sellers for the notorious
"chefa games are part Of the gaming system
and that they can be convicted for assisting and
maintaining gambling game will SO long
wax. toward putting the gamblers out of bust
ness if the police follow it up with rigorous
and unremitting campaign. Che-fa is admit
iedly hard game to break up, for it fourishes
on minimum of machinery and in many cases
viii no apparent headquarters or s.higher-ups .
o,nong the promoters. The very ease with
which the game is doomed among the people
constitutes its. chief danger, for it is such a
<imple and cheap form of lottery that it is pc
lnIiarly insidious, particularly among the poor.
Tie police judges heavy fine will deter the
k1nbling promoters; Jail sentence for those
Mic rim games or induce people to purchase
|fkets would be an even more effective deter
rent As to the legal points of the judges de-
/iSion the Star Bulletin does not know, but it
VAS a decision based on common-sense and a
realization that the law can t draw technical
Ties fine and expect che-fa gambling to be
broken up in Honolulu.
