New Compact Fire Escape.

One of the boys aboard our navy's
fleet has invented a fire escape which
is similar to the rope ladders used
aboard ships. His principal object was
to provide a collapsible fire escape
which could be compacted and con-
yeniently arranged at the window of a
dwelling. 1t consists of a container
hinged to the sill in such a manner
that by opening the window and fold
Ing the centainer on its hinges the
metal ladder may be unfolded and
dropped. When this operation is gone
through, means is automatically
provided whereby the ladder is held
at a distance from the walls of the
building. The advantage of such pre-
caution is obvious.
