The young man was hastened to the Office of pr. J. w. Bush and from there he was taken in the police ambulance to the hospital.
 According to Eggleston's story, he came here yesterday in the quest of work, and having met with failure, he decided on his self destruction.

OPPOSED TO
 TWO PLATOON
Commissioner Kran0WitZ Against
 PireInen'S Wishes

Fire Commissi oner William c. kranowitz is opposed to the adoption of two-patoon plan in the fire de- partment under present conditions and will object to it's inclusion in the departments estimates if it is recom- mended at Monday evenings meeting.
 Commissioner I<ranowitz is one of the two members who submitted a negative report to the common coun- cil several months ago after the coun- cl had delegated to the fire board the right to say whether or not the sys- tenn would be adopted.
 The fire board member is heartily in sympathy with the fire fighters in their efforts to bring about a two- platoon, he has stated, but he does the burden at this time, nor does he feel that the spring will see condi- tions sufficiently improved to war rant a two-platoon.
 In discussing the matter today, the fire board member asserted that the advisa bility of adopting two- platoon can be discussed at any time during the fiscal year and, if thought wise, can be put into effect. He does not approve an appropriation at the open ing of the fiscal year, however
 Commissioner Kranowitz is unqual- ifiedly in favor of retaining the pres ent scale of wages. he has stated, and when the time Is opportune will ap- prove the two-platoon, he assures
 The estimating committee of the fire board will come together this evening. Members of the commission have expressed themselves as in fa- vor of a wo-platoon to commence April 1, under the present wage scale, so it is likely that an item to that effect will be included in the estimates.

ICE HARVEST
Local Corporations Put Back by Weather Conditions-1cc Reported 10 to 1o Inches Thick.

The local ice corporations had planned to start harvesting the Ice crop today, but on account ot the weather conditions, the work mas been postponed until tomorrow. Re ports from all the concerns engaged in this line of work state that the Ice is anywhere from 10 to l2 inches thick, and if the weather stays cold a fine crop is expected. The ice on the local ponds is found to be In eX- cellent condition, and if the stormy weather ends the ice will be harvested as quickly as possible.
 Bailey Bros, who have the contract to cut ice on the Shuttle Meadow lake, started work yesterday noon and a good deal of the preliminary work was accomplished. Not much of the ice was taken in however, and though the force of workmen left this morn ing for the scene of operations, 1t was thought that they would not be able to do much there today. The work, however, will be pushed just as soon as conditions will allow and good crop is expected

strictly private. Reporters who were on watch at the cemetetry yesterday were not admitted today and the newspapermen who followed the funeral party through steady rain to the last resting place of the senator were warned that if they entered the cemetery it would be at their own peril Guards were stationed all around the place. The funeral party was in the cemetery about 5 minutes.
 Questions had been asked why the family desired secrecy in the burial of the senator and the answer of close political friends was that Penrose hated pomp and ceremony and that 1t probably was his wish that he be buried with as much simplicity and with as little ceremony as possible. It is said to have been tradition Tn the Penrose family, which is one of the oldest in the city that all funerals of members be strictly private.

 In 1920 Mir. Spencer took up the study of aviation and since then has made more than twenty aeroplane flights. It is probable that, as a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, he will be in. terested in the work of the society s aeronautc division which numbers such prominent aviators as Orville Wright on it's rolls.
