FIRE CARELESS FOLK ARE PUT
 ON BLACKLIST

New York Oct. s-Negligent prop erty owners whose carelessness in the past has contributed to the loss of 15.000 lives and the destruction of $250, 100000 annually by fire in the L. States are going to be ''black listed" by fire department officials in a num- Der of cities this year in accordance with a. plan of the National Board of Fire Underwriters. For weeks, in an- ticipation of the observance of Fire Prevention Day throughout the na- ton tomorrow, the following warnin g has been displayed on billboards, street cars and in other public places: Keep off the Fire Departments blacklist! = Prior to Fire Department Day, members of the uniformed force will make inspections of business and resi- dentia1 properties. All premises con fective chimneys and f1ues, improper heating devices Or any other condi- tions constituting public menace will be carefully noted and recorded.
 Chief Fire Department"
 Observance of Fire Prevention Day, of the burning of Chicago will be gen eral throughout the United States, ac- cording to an announcement by the National Board of Fire Underwriters here, the governors of many states having issued proclamatiors in ac-
 
 dent Wilson.
 The New York city fire depart ment, through its BuTeau of Fire Pre- vention, has planned a program which includes the issuance of 30o.00O let ters to school children and their parents, the display of 10000 red pla- cards in public places, the circula- tion of stereoptican slides in motion picture houses, the imprinting of 'riders'' on 100000 restaurant menus and city department letters and the utilization of billboard space.
 Special attention is devoted to the school children because of the fact that in the United States there are, on an average. approximately five school fires every day. More than one-third of the school fires for the three years 1916, 1917 and 1918, aggregatins $13,972,393 were due to strictly pre- ventable' causes.

2I0,O0O COAL 2 MINERS RETURN

London, Oct. 8.-Virtual1y all of the 21O,000 coal miners in Wales who went on premature strike before ten- tative agreement was reached between the Fedora ton of Miners and the gov ernment, were back at work today. They sent word that they would re- main in the mines pending the out come of the second referendum ballot on the question of a general strike throughout the British coal fields.
 Many coal miners in Lanarkshire went strike and the leaders of the walkout attempted to make it general, but failed. Practically all these men are back at work also.
 Robert Smillie, head of the Feder- ation of Miners, is urging the men to accept the governments terms which provide for a wage increase if pro- duction is increased. Smillie contends that, while this is temporary meas ure, it will give the men an oppor- tunity for new negotiations with the mine owners later on. The miners in many districts, notably North and South Wales, are hostile to the terms.

STATE TO VOTE ON BONUS.

Albany. Oct. 8-Two propositions will be submitted to the peopie at the coming election. One is constltu- tional amendment, making technical changes in the manner of handling the states finances to meet modern con ditions. The other is whether the state shall issue s45,00o,o00 in bonds to pay bonuses for New York state men and women who served in the World War.
 The second proposition is backed by the American Legion. Under it all men and women, except conscientious objectors and those dishonorably dis charged, who served in the army, navy, marines or Red Cross~ are e-1 . titled to a bonus of $10 for each month of service. except that there is to be a minimum of $20 and a maxi mum of s25o. The bonus does not apply to those who served in the army with the rank of captain or higher or senior lieutenant CT higher in. the navy.
 The s45.0o0,oo0 fund is to be dis bursed by a commission to be created by the next legislature. A disa bllity fund for those permanently disabled will also be created. The ho1:1s' the

DEVINE SURE
 TO BE ELECTED
 IN NOVEMBER

That Joseph J. Devine, who was nominated by the Democrats for Judge of Probate last night, will be elected in November is the opinion of both Democrats and Republicans.
 One prominent Republican today said that he believed that Devine would be elected though he hated to admit it. He had heard many Re- publican members of the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars state that they were going to vote and work for Attorney Devines election and he believed with this support there would be no~-question as to the result.
 Attorney Devine was seen at his of flee in the Newfeld Building this morning by Times representative, and he was grateful to the delegates which had honored him with the nomination.
 He said he believed that he would be elected and that he has received assurances from a number of Repub- licans that they would work to see that he received a large number of Republican votes and that as he con- sidered that the Democrats were go- ing to carry the city for all candidates he was confident that he would be elected.
 Attorney Devine is a graduate of both the Academic and Lazy Depart ments of Yale University and gradu- ated with honors in both departments
 He had been practicing law in this city when the war was declared and imm ediately volunteered and was sent to the training camp at Plattsburg from which he received a commission of second lieutenant in the artillery, and left for France in January, 1918.
 He went to the artillery school at Saummur and in June was assigned to the Second Division, 17th Field Ar tillery, at the Verdun sector
 From this sector he was shifted to help stop the German advance and took part in the first battle at Cha teau Thierry. in Bal1ieu Woods where the Germans were stopped

 Ben Pierce is one of the cleverest and most original comedians who have visited the city in many a day.

The first auction will dispose of art collections assembled by the Saxon kings in the eighteenth century. Nine paint ings will be taken from the walls of the world famed Dresden art gal lery and sold.

GETS HER PAINTINGS BACK.

Chicago, Oct. 8-Judge Homer in the Probate Court has ordered paint ings valued at $2,OOO,00O to be re- turned by the Art Institute to Mrs. Virginia Kimball, 80 years old. Some time ago a conServator was appoin ted for her large estate and the paintings were removed to the Art Institute. Among them are works of Gainsbor- ough, Reynolds. Romney, Rembrandt, Millet, Lawrence and Constable.
 Mrs. Kimbalrs grief over the re- moval of her beloved paintings threat ened to end her life. She Wept and pleaded for the return of the collec- tion, which she and her husband had spent their middle age in collecting. She would not be conso1ed. Judge Horner heard the plea of the unhappy woman and said in ordering the Art Institute to return the collection, 'It is not exactly according to law, but I feel it is juStice."

 If you want to abandon for while your workday worries about the H. c. of L., strikes and the like and to be transported into another world of high adventure. pirates, and fights on the sea and land, go to the Empire theatre and see Maurice Tourneur's motion picture made from Robert Louis Stevenson's classic Treasure Island" In a truly remarkable de- gree this producer has preserved the romantic flavor of Stevenson's novel, He has created a true-tO-life atmoS- phere and given the various roles in charge of players who enact them with sympathy and spirit. Shirley Mason imparts a charm and piquancy to the part of little Jim Hawkins that no boy-actor could hope to duplicate.
