BERWICK DETECTIVE ON
THE JOB

The spy scare was brought home
to member of the REVIEW staff
Wednesday afternoon, while in Ber-
wick on general assignment. Hav-
ing acquired the journalistic habit
OF scribbling all topics of, public in
terest on a pad, the reporter jotted
down the names Of the two Berwick
guards, which he saw at the head
of notice posted below the South
ern Pacific Bridge, with the inten-
ton of giving the guards a write
up, in the event of scarcity of To-
cal news. But ''our hero" was ap-
pretended in the act by a railroad
sleuth who, installing the scribe for
a Teutonic spy, demanded that he
forthwith give a full account of
himself, his family connections, and
his business references.
The reporter complied and, appar-
emily satisfied with his explanation,
the sleuth permitted him to depart
with the knowledge that in these
perilous times there is limit, even
to the freedom of the press.

Sneezing Il Tabooed a.
Dangerous to Heath

Sneezes used to be considered un-
avoidable and perfectly excusable. In
fact they were rather enjoyed by the
one who sneezed. Now they are con-
sidered inelegant. dangerous and very
inexcusable, particularly If not sneezed
into a handkerchief They used to be
considered signs Of taking cold; now
they are signs Of giving colds to 9TH
ers. AS a matter of fact, the sneeze
has been tabooed by all forms Of COM
mon decency and is no longer allowed
In healthful society.
To sneeze in u persons face or even
within his presence without covering
nose and mouth with a handkerchief
Is now considered more of crime than
an accident. ..-.- ...s.
The reason Is this: Grip, pneumonia,
colds. tuberculosis and many other
diseases are now known to be trans
mitted by nose and mouth secretforS,
and the sneeze is one Of their chief
means of spreading When spfaSed out
into the air, especially II In 2 closed.
unyentilated room or hall, they noat
around for hours and are breathed In
by some innocent visitor or inmate per
son, later perhaps to be sneezed ou'
again.

FIGHTING A FIRE.
Extra PsriIs That Have to Be Faced
In Freezing Weather.


All the serious fires seem to oc-
cur on bitterly cold days or nights,
and the suffering of the men work |
ing at such fires is very great.
To stand upon the peak of lad
der at perhaps the third or fourth
story OF a building, directing the
stream of water at the blazing in
terror, while the thermometer is at
about its lowest point, is not a com
Portable task. Perhaps another
stream is playing over your head,
and you st1ld in an icy spray. lei
cles hang rom every point of your
fire hat, while the rubber coat Is
frozen to your back, and the water
that is falling about you freezes as
fast as it falls. Every movement
upon the ladder is fraught with dan
ger, for it is so incrusted with ice
that it is almost impossible to get
solid foothold, and a misstep
would hurl you to the ground forty
feet below.
The fremen find it difficult to
get any sort of gloves that will pro-
tect their hands in the extreme win
ter weather. A wooden glove of any
description is saturated with water
almost Immediately and freezes stiff,
while one made of leather soon gets
into condition nearly as bad, and
when dry becomes as hard as iron.
They are, therefore, forced to han
die the hose with bare hands, no
matter how bitter the weather, and
picking up" or slowing the hose
away in the hose wagons after fire
is over becomes the most painful
work. The freman's hands become
completely numb and helpless from
handling the ice clad pipe, and the
metal connections, cold to many de-
grees below freezing, almost scar
their fingers in breaking" or dis
connecting the different lengths.
Broken glass and melted lead are
among the other dangers that fire
men are compelled to face at bad
fires. The former occurs at almost
every fire and is caused by the
flames bursting through the win,
dows or by the efforts of the men
to make an opening in the building
The latter is caused by the burning
away of metal cornices and ,orna.
mental iron work at the top Of
buildings, in which an immense
amount Of solder is used to hole
parts together. When the roaring
flames pour out of the top story
windows of a building and curl VI
against this metal work with the
force Of a blast furnace, perfect
rain of molten metal pours down
with an occasional piece of redhot
tin or zinc for variety. - From
