SideHghts on
Ryar, Fire

Several accidents happened during
the time the Ryan farm home was
burning Tuesday.
y * -
August Plat received a wicked jab
in one hand from a rusty nail.
). s. x
/ A ladder fell on Will OFT, badly cut
ting his head.
E. T. Ross fell through a burning
floor, but escaped through the side Of
the building.
Mrs. Stella Stebbler, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Ryan sprained her ankle
4 x Il
| Mrs. G. Gehri, who was engaged in
cleaning the tenement house, had a
needle driven into her finger. It was
necessary to take the lady to doctor
as the needle was broken and part
of it remained in the flesh.
Several roofs of Lyons buildings
caught fire from the sparks carried
by the high wind.
Howard Ryan received number
of bad cuts in going through win
dow.
E. W. Coughlin, who drives the
truck for the Third ward fire depart
ment and Otto Arndt, member of the
department, were in the hose house
when the fire bell rang. They were ad-
justing the brakes of the fire truck
which were not in good order. The
south side department would have
been the first truck or the scene but
for the condition of the brakes, which
had not been given tryout Near
the wooden mill the Third ward truck
had a narrow escape with another
auto which was crossing the bridge
when the truck was coming down the
hill The car was driven by a woman
who became excited when the truck
came in view The fire automobile
just missed the other one on the
bridge as they passed
s. 81 81
The three departments were able to
secure 1000 feet of hose but the
amount was not sufficient to reach
the scene of action. About three hum
dred feet additional hose was secur-
ed before the house was reached. The
amount did not extend around the
premises SO the blaze was only fought
from one side, which made it dis
advantageous for the fire department
1t was six or seven o'clock in the
evening before the fire fighters left
the scene.
Rex Newman had his cap burned
by some of the chemical ased to
fight the blaze John Arnott was also
slightly burned in the face by the fire
chemical but no marks we're left.
At first it looked as if the lower
portions of the house would be saved
when the hose arrived, but the entire
wooden structure was reduced either
by burning or chopping away. APP
proximately> $50 worth of lumber was
saved from the house.

town of Freedom in 1853, and of Ex-
celsior in 1866.
He married Miss Emma Barringer
In, Excelsior in 1867, and of eleven
sons and daughters three died in in

HOW SUNSHINE BABY REGISTERS
 EMOTIONS

Tiny Beulah Higgins, affection ately known to stars and players around the Fox studios in Hollywood as the Sunshine Baby" because of the prominent parts she takes in Sunshine Comedies. has been taught to register various emotions and to perform certain little antics by her father, Michael M. Niggins-who is assistant director to J Gordon Ed wards
 The little girl is double-jointed and can assume pastures impossible for other children One day she bent her body double and walked across the room to her daddie with her hands on the floor. Migoins told her she was doing a Clyde Cook'' after the manner of the famous star Clyde Cook. Since then whenever her father or mother asks her to do a Clyde Cook" she knows what to do. When she was in pain with her teeth she would make a very wry face That was hate" her father said-and she knows how to register that emotion. One day she was per | mitted to try to comb her own hair | Hitting an unexpected snarl in her | tresses the child began to cry. That's | hySterical." said dad - and Beulah
 had acquired another emotion.

One Never Can Tell But

The George B. Seitz studio, where most of Pathe's serials are filmed in splendid example of what we're talking about. The pressure of gen. us to the square inch is something tremendous out there. Why, a list of the occupants of that building reads like the Heres How of Ser ialdom." Take our starboard hand for a few moments, gentle reader, and let us guide you through it.
 Here we have a door marked "Mr. Seitz-PrivaIte.' That is a SeitNan jest, for the inscription is a, misnomer. MT. Seitz isn'a private at all. He's the Commanding Officer and the Chief of Staff and the Producer, and the Boss Director and the Hear of the Scenario Department and the Star. Maybe it would be better to refer to him as a comet rather than a star. A Star has a more or less fixed position in the Armament, while a Comet has an eccentric orbit like that described by MT. SeitZ.

 How many people can you carry in a carp asked the garrulous pas senger. according to the star.
 About forty replied the conduc- tor.
 "Do you have long hours?'
 'Sometimes.'
 "'Work day and nights?'
 "'Not always

 "'Yes'
 "'The motorman must get awfully tired?'
 Not as tired as the conductor.
 Why shouldn't he get more tired than the conductor?'
 Because the conductor has to an swer so many foolish questions
