FIRES ON FARM

Experience has shown that fire pre-
vention should be universally Rrac.
ticed. The farmer. however, should
give special attention to the elimina-
ton of fire hazards and the adoption
of protective methods. This IS true
for several reasons. In the first place.
his house, barn and Outbui!dings are
usually constructed of cCmhuStible
materials: being more Or less isolat-
ed they are subject to lightning
strokes: kerosene and sasolene are
likely to be stored about tie prem
Uses and used FOR light and power;
he must fill his barn with hay, straw
and feed which are subject to spon-
taneous combustion and. last but not
least he is usually outside OF the
protection OF a fire department. TOO
often fire once started in a farm
building results in total loss. while
the owner stands sadly by with his
family and his neighhors, and wishes
that he had taken some OF those pre-
cautions which he had been coIsid-
ering.

of Daniel c. Giles s-WiIl
Have Hearing Today
FOUND BY SON, GUN IN HAND

Investigation is being made today by
the police of Camden into the domestic
affairs of Daniel G.. Giles, who was
arrested late yesterday in connection
with the death of his wife, Mrs. Louisa
Giles.
The woman was found dead in the
bathroom of the home of her son. Dan

Woodlynne, N. J., with two bullet
wounds in her neck. Daniel c. Giles,
her husband. according to the police,
was sitting on the edge of the bathtub
with q smoking revolver in his hand.
Efforts Of the police to obtain def
mite explanation of the affair from Giles
so far have been unsuccessful. He Will
have a hearing today before Recorder
Stackhousc, of Camden.
The body of Mrs. Giles was found by
her son, Layton, nineteen years old.
He told the police that his father re
sisted when he attempted to take the
revolver from him. The police believe
that Giles intended to kill himself. Mr..
and Mrs. Giles. with Layton, who live

G. Giles, Jr., and had been at the lat
ter's home several days.
Many conflicting statements have

times refused to answer questions.
Layton Giles told the police his
| father was evidently suffering from d
severe mental strain and had been act
| ing strangely of late.

Deaths of a Day
FRANK F. BRIGHTLY
Noted Lawyer, Author of Severa
Books, Was Nearly Seventy-fve

SSSNof w 40 SSNS'eJ wv
Frank L. Brightly. lawyer and au-
thor of several books on legal subjects,
died last night at the Gladstone Apart
ments. Eleventh and Pine streets. Mr..
Brightly was nearly seventy five years
old.
He is survived by his widow, Mrs.
Maie Brightly. He was born February
26, 1916. His father, Frederick c..
Brightly, was also a lawyer and au-
thor Of law books. He practiced here
for fifty years.
Mr.. Brightly was admitted to prac
tice in February. 1865. He was not
yet twenty years old, and his admission
was allowed on special rule by court.
He had studied law in the Office of his
father, which he entered in 1861. on
completing his preliminary education in
the public schools The year following
his admission to the bar he received the
degree of Ii. +. from the University of
Pennsylvania.
In his profession Mr.. Brightly de-
voted himself chiefly to practice per-
tanning to divorce and marriage. He
was recognized widely as an authority
on the law of martial relations.
Among the legal works of his author
ship are "Brightly's Digest of the Laws
of Pennsylvania. 'Brightly's Digest of
the Decisions of the Courts of Pennsyl-
vania" and "a digest of the decisions of
the courts of New York. He published
"Brightly's Monthly Digest Of the De-
cisions of the Courts of Pennsylvania. +"

be overburdened.
"The police would give us better
service If we showed them they were not
mere political puppets, to be kicked
from pillar to post at the whim of
boss We should recognize them as
human beings and men with some
pride.''
Mayor Moore expects to call meet
ing of prominent citizens in his Office
the latter part of next week to arouse
public interest in the helping of widows
and orphans of patrolmen. His hope
is to develop some independent organiza-
tion or fund to care for such depend
ents. and to provide for the education
Of the children In the meantime, he
believes immediate financial aid would
be welcome to Mrs. Herman.
Superintendent of Police Robinson
also expressed his approval of fund
for the Herman family. as well as a
permanent system whereby other such
cases might be cared for.
Two other policemen died the same
day Herman died. he said.
That makes four deaths this month
from natural causes. In such cases the
families receive about $4,000 insurance
from the Policemans Insurance Asso
citation. There is no pension except In
cases where the patrolman was killed or
disabled in service. and even then the
amount is not enough to provide main
tenance for an entire family"

in Talk Here

Unusual interest is being evinced by
Philadelphians concerning the speech to
be made here on Thursday evening, Feb

formerly of the Eighty second Division
and one of the greatest heroes produced
by the war.
Sergeant York will tell of his expe-

ceeds of his lecture tour toward helping
educate the backwoods people from his
own country in the mountains of Ten

MA YOR APPROVES RAISING
FUND FOR "WHISTLING COP"
Will Call Meeting Next Week Arouse Interest Permanent
Plan to Care for Patroln,ens Kin

''Mathew Herman was faithful and
good servant Of the public, and I am
glad to find SO many Philadelphians
interested in the welfare of his widow
and children. He leaves deserving
family, and / heartily approve of the
raising of fund to aid them"
Mayor Moore thus expressed his
opinion concerning suggestions that a
fund be started<for the family Of the
"Whistling Cop" who died Monday of
pneumonia, contracted while he was in
public service. His widow and four
small children live at 26Oo Harold
street.
"a number of letters containing sug-
gestions, as we'll as contributions have
come to me- continued the Mayor.
Public feeling seems to be reused in
this case. and ] hope it will serve as
an illustration of the many similar
cases. 1t is deplorable that the families
of men who have given years of faith =
full service to the public should be for :
gotten and neglected after the father S
death.
There should be some way of sig
nalizing special acts of bravery and
courage done in service, and there
should be system whereby those de-
pendent upon the patrolman could be
more substantially provided for upon
his death. 1t is/terrible to leave a
widow and children to the charity OF
