name! As an ordinary person rarely
mas one thrust upon him, ii must be
true that only extraordinary persons
receive these added Applications.
General Wayne, who was a New
Years gift to his proud parents in
I745, had half dozen nicknames.
Washington called him prudent but
the people considered him a daredevil
and consequently dubbel him Mad An
thony"
In letter to his commander-in- chief
the famous fighter expressed himself as
an advocate of the idea that clothes
largely make the man. He said he
would rather have troops in fine uni
forms than poorly-olad soldiers with a
greater amount of ammunition. Thus
he became Dandy Wayne"
The Indians ohristened the general
BLACK Snake" because it rarely gets
the worst Of an encounter with any
other species More often, perhaps,
they alluded TO him as Wind" or Tor
nado," as he attacked like a hurricane
that fells everything in its reach.
The Marshal Ney of the Revolu.
ton" had an unusual number of nick

from his fellows and was, above every
thing else, a man Of action. Dearborn

OBSERVING WOMAN SUGGESTS
 LIFE NET

An observing Putnam woman, who, by the way, is living at hotel, sug- gests that the Putnam fire depart ment is in need of life net.
 Since the Hotel Chickering fire this woman has had brought home to her the fact that net is not among the equipment of the department.
 While no one was forced to jump from the hotel windows, there was danger, and if a net had been on the fire truck it would have undoubtedly been used, for before the ladders ar rived several inmates of the burning building were threatening to leap from the upper stories.
 A life net is not costly and might be the means of saving life if any of the remaining hotels should catch fire at time when guests were asleep and had no time ofter being awakesei to get out through railways and stair way. The matter suggested is cer- tainly worth consideration.
