OFFICIALS TRY OUT
 FIRE ALARM SYSTEM
Test Run Arranged Friday Morning Shows Both Strong and Weak Spots in Local
 Methods.

A test made of the local fire alarm system Friday morning under the di- rection of the city council brought forth the fact that there are some good as we'll as bad spots in the Mena method. A party of officials, together with interested citizens gathered at the central office of the telephone company and promptly at 10:30 fire call was turned in.
 The big bell rang, the members of the fire department, or as many as could, ran to the fire station and started the motor engine towards a supposed fire at Reine and Janssen avenue. Observers who timed the proceeding, reported that it required just 2l5 minutes from the time the big gong sounded until the fire truck left the engine house. 1t required total of eight minutes to reach the seeEe If the supposed fire.
 The run developed the fact that the truck ran out of gasoline before reaching it's destination. The fire boys also say that when they reached the engine house and tried to call cen tral to learn the location of the fire, they couldn't hear and accordingly drove the truck around to the office to inquire in person. Bob Beauchamp, who drove the truck, estimated that at least a minute was lost in a vain effort to get central.
 Another bad thing developed by the test was the system of sounding alarms. When central receives word of fire, there is no way to ring the big bell on Janssen avenue, a system that has many drawbacks; and par tieularly so should the fire call come at a time of night when there are few persons on the downtown streets.
 The sounding of the alarm served to instruct those in the telephone com pany' office of the amount of work the hello girls have to do in an occasion of this kind. The three girls on the switchboard, working under the direc- tion of Chief Operator Myrtle Copes, answered more than 200 inquiries as to the location of the fire. The three girls were Minnie Driscoll, Flossie Stipes and Ruth Head, and for five minutes after the ringing of the fire bell they were some busy.

ATTACK LAST NIGHT
Bulletin Issued at 11.3O Says lie Has
Rallied from Very Severe Relapse and
That There Has Been Some Improve

NEW YORK, Feb. I6.-Oxygen was
administered today to Enrico Caruso,
world famous tenor, who was waging a
fight against death after having been
stricken last night with a heart attack
that caused his physicians TO fear he
would succumb before morning Shortly
before II o'clock more oxygen tanks
were taken to the singers apartment in
the Hotel Vanderbilt, where he lay sur
rounded by relatives and comrades of
the Metropolitan Opera Co. A consul
tatiOn of doctors was called.
After a slight rally at a. m. the
tenor had several spells of semi-con-
sciousness. At one time he was able
to recognize his friend. Antonio Scotti,
but he was too weak to talk to him.
\ bulletin issued by Caruso's ply
sician at ll.30 o'clock said: "Caruso has
rallied from very severe relapse. His
condition Is not satisfactory, but there
Is some Improvement.
When Rev. ID. d. Molnelli of the
Church of the Sacred Heart called ut the
Caruso apartment early today and ad-
ministered the sacrament it was learned
that the tenor WAS conscious and rec
Ognized the priest.
What's the matter? What are YOU
doing here: | am not going to die, said
aruso, who then thanked the priest
for his yisist.
