FLEEING Tenement

New York, Nov. 1.-Joseph
Prestomonaci was arrested early
today as he ran from the hallway
Of an uptown apartment where

fires in uptown apartments re-
Gently in which twenty lives were
lost.
Prestomonaci told detectives
that he had gone to the tenement
ito see a friend" whose name he
was unable to tell. An investiga-
ton disclosed evidence that the
woodwork of the stairs had been
8soaked In kerosene.

PLUMBERS USED TO
 FORGETTING TOOLS
 ENDANGERED NOW

House owners who have had expe- rience with "forgetfuP' plumbers, the type of man who suddenly rernenl- bers that he hassforgotten his tools after he gets to a house. and goes back for them, charging the time, of in the new House Maintenance asso- citations the first Of it's kind in this city, which has just been organiz
 This association, composed of plumbers, roofers. painters, carpen- ters and men in other lines Of repair ing been organized last week by How ard M. Osborn. 23S Dover street
 MT. Osborn conceived the idea of a group of men to do repair work with out an overhead expense. Private concerns do only one kind of work, rates for labor. Besides, they charge for the job, which is natural and nec- ssary in order to carry on the bus iness.
 Osborn's plan is to do away with the large Job charge, merely charg- ing. for the time the workmen spend. and a ten per cent. charge for the as- sociation. The time will not begin when the workman stars from home for the job but when he actually be- gins work.
 If the worker forgets his tools. the will not be charged to the employer but will be lost by the worker. Under this system there will undoubtedly be less tools forgotten in the future.
 Hereafter, when a man needs a plumber CT a painter or any other re- pair man for his house he will not have to look for that particular type of concern, but can just call the as Soc1at1on, and he will be sent what. ever workman he wishes.

REGARDING PEREMPTORY
CHALLENGES

Repeated attempts have been
made to change the Kentucky law
relating to the number of perempto-
ry challenges allowed the defense in
selecting a jury in criminal cases,
but all of these have failed in the
Legislature. Under the present law
the defense is permitted fifteen per-
emptory challenges as against only
five allowed the Commonwealth.
The system has been attacked by
eminent jurists as an obstacle to
meteing out justice and an unfair
fair advantage for the defendant in
criminal prosecution. Move
ments have been started by law re-
formers to reduce the defense chal-
lenges to ten, or twice the number
allowed the prosecution, but these
efforts have succeeded in getting nc
farther than the introduction of the
bills in the Legislature.
