INVESTIGATORS
UNABLE TO FIND
SCHOOL FIREBUGS
Absolutely No Clues TO Identity
of Men Who Fired Three
Hill Buildings
STATE MARSHALS HERE
Whole City Detective Force on
1the Case; Run Down Many
False Tips

Efforts of city and State authorities
to unravel the mystery surrounding
the attempts to destroy the Shimmell
Vernon and Forney school buildings
early yesterday morning, were of no
avail to-day.
Investigators are no closer to a So
luton now than they were yesterday
and although many clues have been
reported, not one has led to an ar
rest The police at present are even
without suspects.
William Windsor, chief of the bu-
reau of detectives, had his force of
men at work early to-day and they
spent their time running down re-
ported tips" The majority of these
required but little time to fathom so
that all of their efforts were useless.
Charles II. Rhein, assistant State
Fire Marshal, visited the three build
ings this morning and after a careful
investigation said that no doubt re-
mained in his mind that fires were the
work of an incendiary. In the Shin
nell building a trapdoor on the roof
of the coal and wood shed was re-
moved and in this part of the build
ing the tirebugs ignited the lumber
pile. The fireproof walls, however,
prevented the flames from spreading
to the main building so that at no
time was the big new structure en-
dangered.
Fired at Worst Places
In the Vernon building Mr.. Rhein
found evidences of the fires start In
passageway leading to the boiler
room. John w. Urban, 1898 Derry
street, the janitor, stated that only q
bench, two mops and a can of prepa-
ration for boiling the sediment out
of the boilers was stored there. There
were no combustibles where the blaze
originated. In the Forney building
the blaze was started in the boys
toilet room, shelf over a long slate
panel being used to lay on the articles

SHORTCAKE SEASON

This is shortcake season. By the
same token it is strawberry season.
There are persons who make short
cake out of most any kind of fruit or
vegetable, but the fellow who likes
strawberry shortcake has little SYM
pathy for these misguided individuals.
The crop is now being shipped from
the south. In some future day we
will be in on the home crop. 1t may
cause some of us to break out in a
rash and scratch a little overtime,
but the dissipation continues Just the
