DEADLY fireworks
The Facts in Regard to the High Ex-
plOsives Used and the Attendant
Dangers-ThOse Which Explode in
the Air Least Dangerous City
Authorities Should Control Exhi-
bitiOns.
Bert B. Buckley, State Fire Marsha

Bert B. Buckley, State Fire Marshal
The Fourth of July, the time for
the slaughter of the innocents and the
burnt offering of homes in the annual
exhibition of savagery, which we call
patriotism, is almost due. It's hor-
rors have been lessened by many
cities passing ordinances, prohibiting
the sale of fireworks, Toledo being
the first.
On one Fourth the number killed
by fireworks in the United States was
466 and the number who died from
lockjaw following wounds from fire.
works was 1863. The toy pistol, which
explodes a cap of chlorate when the
hammer falls, caused the greatest
number of them.
Four factories in Reading give
Ohio second place in the production
of fireworks. In 1908 the state fire
marshal, by threat of securing a
state law barring the use of ALL
fireworks if they did not give him
their secret formulae showing the
kind and amount of explosive in each
so that law could be formulated ex-
cluding the more dangerous ones, Sc
cured possession of the formulae.
The Cannon Cracker.
In Ohio a man was torn to pieces
by one exploding while held in his
arm, another had both hands con-
sumed to the wrist-converted into
smoke, and the hand of a boy dis
appeared, all except the tip of a lit
tie finger.
The largest cannon crackers have
in them two-thirds of an ounce of
chlorate and one-third of an ounce
of sulphur with a little charcoal.
Those seven inches long have half as
much.
If the fuse in one Of these crackers
is choked by the crimping so it goes
out, it should be let alone for ten
minutes, then soaked well in water
and buried
High Explosives.
The term "high explosive" is used
to designate an explosive more pow
erful than gunpowder Chlorate of
potash is one of them-yes, the same
chlorate that is used for sore throats
The shooting cane has an Iron boot
in the leg of which lozenges are SC
placed that one of them explodes each
time the end of the cane is struck
against the pavement. The lozenges
are two parts chlorate of potash and
one part sulphur, with little sand
powdered glass or coal with gum
enough to hold them together. Ankles
have been seriously injured by the
exploding of lozenge near them and
in one case a leg was torn off by g
socket-full of them going off together
A boy struck one of these canes

The Less Dangerous Sorts.
Red fire and torches hurt no one,

The common torpedo has in it a

this are a number of pieces of gravel.

used by children, but it causes few
very serious injuries. The paper
from which it is made glows for
some time after it explodes. One
of them thrown into trash or through

cork of mud in each end of charge

Chinese make them by hand cheaper
than Americans can make them with

The Roman Candle.
The Roman candle is not a serious
fire danger, but is liable to explode
at the wrong end, burning the hand
holding it. Each star is shot from it
by charge of powder.
The German sparkler does not burn

are made from burning metal, cool

LEE FOIL CARRIES
A "DOC'' WITH TEAM
DR.. Meyer Travels With Club
and Repairs Manned and
Injured Athletes.
PUTS covELEsK1E RIGHT,

As firm believer in preparedness
Manager Lee Foil of the Cleveland
Indians has introduced the rather
novel plan of carrying his own hos
pital corps with him on the road.
That is to say, he has doctor trav-
cling with his club.
On their recent trip through the
east the Indians were accompanied
by DR.. Charles Edward Meyer, a reg
istered practitioner and osteopath,
who was on hand to take care of the
MANNED and injured, give relief for
the dreaded "charlcyhorse" and to
replace such muscles as got out of
place on any of the athletes.
DOC" Once a Lacquer.
DR.. Meyer was once a big league
pitcher himself. He was with Wash
ington in 1910, and it was through
trouble with his arm that he came to
take up osteopathy, which has landed
him in his present position.
In 1911 his arm became lame and
he had to 60 out to the minors. He
was with Springfield for the next
three seasons and during that time
was constantly passing out 81 bills to
doctors FOR relief He finally decided
he would take up osteopathy himself
as the cheapest method Of getting his
arm in shape.
So he studied and took the neces-
sary examinations a year ago. Last
season he was able to pitch better
than he had for four wears MANAGER
Fohl had known him in the days
when he was manager of the Water
bury, Conn, club, when Meyer was
with Springfield. This season, when
Foil had so much trouble with in
juries to arms and legs on his club,
he got DR.. Meyer to join the club.
Puts "Covy" in Shape.
Already DR.. Meyer has put Cove
leskie in shape. The pitcher was get
ting lame arm from too constant
work since Morton was injured. Co.
| veleskie was able to pitch last Satur-
day and again on Monday. Morton
has also come in for attention. The
Cleveland star is reported to be get
ting along nicely.
Terry Turner, who returned to the
game after an absence of three weeks,
was also another patient Of the club
doctor. He twisted his ankle in a
game against the Yankees at Cleve-
land, and until the series here has not
been in game DR.. Meyer worked on
the ankle and got him back into the
batting order.

WAGNER THE KING
OF ALL ATHLETES
Greatest Ball Player That Ever
Lived 10 What William Chase
Temple Says Of Veteran.
NEVER PULLED A "BoNER"
By FRANK q. MENKE.

New York, July 2o.-"Honus Wag-
ner is the greatest base ball player
that ever lived" is the assertion of
William Chase Temple, donor Of the
famous Temple cup and one Of the
best judges Of bali players the game
has ever known.
"For forty years--since the Nation
al league began--I have seen every
star that ever flashed in the base ball
armament" added Temple. There
were many brilliant ones in the past;
there are scintillating performers to-
day. But none can compare with
him in all-around ability,
Wagner never was ranked among
the graceful shortstops- but who can
name a player Of the presenter the
past--who really outshone the anlaz-
| ing Honus as a ground coverer? Wag-
ner may be clumsy and awkward in
his movements, yet, today, at the age
OF AZ, he covers more ground than
90 per cent Of the short fielders in the
game.
Honus Led 1915 shortstopss.
who led the National league short
stops in l9l5f The answer is Honus
Wagner--the gray and grizzled Hon.
US. Pitted against such rivals as the
brainy, Herzog, the fast Meanwhile,
Bancroft--called the greatest short
stop in the game by John Tener-and
all the others, Wagner, then aged Al,
outfielded each and every one. Wag-
ner, old and gray, won the fielding
championship in his division.
Wagner takes rank among the
greatest batsihen in history. When
he hit 800 for seventeen successive
seasons he hung up record that may
endure for all times, And now, in his
forty-second year, decade beyond
the end OF the average major leaguer's
life, Wagner is battling with the
youngsters for the leadership Of the
leagues. Isn't that the absolute proof
| Of his hitting provost
| Wagner, in the heydey of his ca
reer, had few equals as baserunner,
Big and awkward, It seemed like folly
