MUST HAVE ENVIED COMRADES
Pathetic Happening in English Court
That Marked the Observance
of Armistice Day.

The great clocks of London doomed
out eleven strokes. The citSS became
as silent as though it were a second
Pompeii miraculOusly swept clean of
its ashes. Motor cars and tram cars
creaked to sudden stops. Policemen
stood like graven blue images at their
posts. Pedestrians dOffed their hats
and stood as though they had not
known motion for centuries. 1t was
Armistice day and the city was doing
honor to those youths who had expe-
r;enced the Great Adventure.
II a dingy courtroom a murder trial
came to a sudden halt. Judge, counsel
witnesses and the prisoner stood, and
for two minutes, with bowed head, did
silent reverence to those poppy
wreathed graves of France. Before the
prisoner fiickered visions of that same
France only one year before. He again
saw the faces of comrades he had loved
and whom he had watched in the thrOes
of death. Incidents of that last des-
perate sprint across No Mans Land,
with death on every side, came back to
him. Again he heard the shout with
which the trenches had greeted the
armistice. He had come safely through.
and now
The two minutes ended. The city
came out of it's trance. The somber
voice of. the Judge resumed-"and shall
hang by the neck until dead"

Poison Gas to Fiaht Squirrels.

Experiments in the use of poison gas
in exterminating grain-eating ground
SQUIRRELS are under way, according to
report of the county horticultural COM
mission to the Los. Angeles board OF
supervisors.
At the same time it was announced
that Los Angeles county has sold its
surplus stock of saccharine and strych-
nine to Orange county in order that
the neighbOring county can join in the
campaign being waged against the de-
structive ground squirrels.
According to Horticultural Commis-
sioner Ryan, the use of poison gas is
necessary at this time because the
SQUIRRELS. which have been practically
eliminated from the worst affected re-
gions in the county by the use OF poi,
sons during the past few MONTHS faii
to eat the poison at this time, pre-
ferring the new vegetable growth.

Bird Preserve Planned.

The proposal to establish an extern
sive wild-bird preserve on the north-
ern shore of Lake Erie is gaining wide
favor in Canada. Something must be
done at once, it is urged by bird low
ers. TO preserve the wild fowl and in
sectivOrous birds. or they will be-
come as extinct as the wild pigeon.
There are strict game regulations In
the province, but the establishment Of
a large preserve would assist the leg
islation. There is already a nucleus
of the proposed area in Rondeau park,
and it is planned to extend this along
the lake shore west for 30 miles.

fire DEPARTMENT u !.
MAD[COMPLETE By THEAER|AL TRUCK
ADDITION; fine PIECE OF MACHINERY

With the arrival of the new Amer
lean La France aerial truck, several
days ago, the motorization OF the
Mankato Fire department. was made
complete. Last night the big, fifty
two foot truck was unloaded from the
car in the Omaha yards near the In
ternational Harvester company build
ing and driven to the Central fire
station.
Although the truck was not taken
TO the station until ten o'clock. large
crowd was on hand to Sc the new
apparatus, which equips Mankato
with one of the rast complete fire
fighting devices in the state. The
new truck is ono OF the latest and
most modern turned out by the
American La France company and is
complete In every detail.
The truck Is eqr(Jped with sew
enty- five horse posSr motor and all
the traction Is on hN.s trent wheels.
A seat and steering AYR is provided,
however. for man to steer the rear
wheels o. the truck. This seat and
steering wheel swing aside when the
big, seventy five foot ladder is raised.
Ladder Easily Raised.
This ladder Is raised TO full height
merely by the pressing of foot lev
'er, huge springs, concealed in two
metal tubes. furnishing the hosting
power. A Ely" ladder, operated by
levers and steel cable can be rails
ed above the first section. Connect
ed with this ladder is water tower
which goes up with the ladders and
is of great benefit in throwing a
stream OF water into the upper stor-
les of buildings. The aerial ladder
is also raised On o turn table which
makes it possible to tilt or turn it at
any angle. Special props are provid-
ed which steady the ladder against
even the vibration of the engine.
Every possible line of parapherna-
liza furnished with the truck, includ-

ing pike poles, sledges, axes, lengths
of rope, lanterns water buckets, tar
'paulins, battering ran for demol-
ishing brick walls, additional lengths
OF rope, shovels, forks, stretchers for
injured persons and other equipment
needed in modern fire fighting. One
piece OF apparatus of particular value
is special nozzle for fighting fires
in cellars and another piece of equip
ment is device for shutting off the
water in a hose.
An expert from the American La
France company is in Mankato and
will go over the truck thoroughly to-
day. Monday he will give trial runs
and on Tuesday the official test, to
make sure that the truck is salts
factory in every way, will be made.
Old Truck in West Mankato.
The old, horse drawn, hook and
ladder truck was towed out to the
West Mankato hose house today. 1t
will be kept there for emergency
purposes. The old truck bore a
strange contrast to the new, motor
driven apparatus which now stands in
the STATION.
Mankato now has, according to the
statements of fire fighting experts,
one of the most completely equipped
stations in the entire country. In
cluded in the motor equipment is the
new aerial truck, the Duplex, four
wheel drive hose truck, which the
firemen built and finished them
selves, the American La France
chemical truck, the Buick light chem
ical, which the men of the depart
ment also built and finished, and the
small Ford utility truck. This makes
five pieces of motor driven apparatus
and, with the additional lmeM need
ed to man the new equipment the
department will have everything
needed to cope with the most sew

STEEL men STILL STRIKE
FULLY ONE-THlRD ARE
REPORTED OUT
That Is Claim Made BY National
Committee; Statement of
Employers
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch

Associated Press DlSpatch.l
Pittsburgh, January 5.-Fully one
third of the estimated 100000 steel
workers, who obeyed the order OF
the national steel strike committee
September % last, are still on strike
say the strike leaders. Yet the EN-
ployes assert that the mills and fur
naces of the Carnegie Steel COM
pany, the principal interest against
which the strike was directed, rs
well as mills and furnaces of inde-
pendent companies, are in steady
operation with virtually normal
force of workmen.
Keeping Men in Line.
In recent weeks strike headquar-
ters in this city has devoted its
lime to keeping in line the men who
lad not gone back to work, and to
caring for the destitute, while the
steel companies have been busy
building ND their forces and increas
lag production. IS gnolf

their plans for the future.qe ,1e,c.

the employers in answer to a
similar question.
Trying To Prevent Desertion.
w. u. Foster, secretary of the ma
.ional steel strike committee, is In
aharSe of headquarters here, and re-
:eiyins reports from organizers in
all parts of the district who are
charged with the duty Of preventing
assertions.
,Anothe~ section has teen organ
zee to provide food for needy strik-
,rs and their families. Canteens
ave been opened, and every week
God l.; distributed AS the strike
,enethens the number of persons in
heed of relief increases, but officials
,f tho committee insist they have
net every call made upon them.
About 100000 Still on Strike.
Efforts to obtain the exact number
who are still out have been unsuc-
ccssful. as the strike leaders have
been unable to determine the exact
number of men who have entered
other industries, the number who
have returned to their old places in
The mills, or the number who have
returned to their native lands. Their
oest calculation, however, place the
number still on strike at more than
100000.
This position is supported by lead
ing independents who declare that
the unskilled labor situation in the
industry is serious, and men for this
class of work is hard to find.
The Carnegie Steel company, how
ever, has no complaint on this score,
it's records for the third week in De-
cember, the last reports available,
showing $1,000 men on the payrolls
las against normal force Of $4,000.
Meetings of strikers now are per-
mitted if sanctioned ty local author
