WATCH THAT MATCH

1t probably will surprise grea
many people to learn that careless
ness with matches and smoking ma
terials today constitutes the creates
single cause of fire loss in the Unit
ed States, yet the carefully compiled
statistics of the National Board Of
Fire Underwriters show this to be
true.
1t is the custom of the National
Board OF Fire Underwriters to COM
bine, under the classification OF
Notwithstanding fires due to eth
er Of these hazards, says w. E. NAL
aleu-, General Manager Of the organ
ization, because so many OF the
match fires are due to burning luci-
fers thrown away by thoughtless
smokers.
The destruction of property from
this cause now amounts to nearly
100000 year which is far more
than the toll exacted by any other
hazard, despite the fact that the dam
ages from understanding is so
largely preventable.
The remedy lies in educating the
people to greater degree OF care
tulness in handling lighted matches,
cigars, cigarettes and pipes, and toI
heir credit it may be said that two
If the largest tobacco companies in
he country and two of the principal
match producers are endeavoring to
,hange the habits of their careless
customers by imprinting suitable |
precautions upon cigarette and match
oxes."
In course of time, the effect of
hese appeals to the public should
ecome about further enactment of
ersonal liability laws providing for
le civil punishment of persons
ausing fire destruction by their OBJ
ous. carelessness.

Murder and Suicide

Bill Lowe, a co!ored fellow aged
twenty who worked at the
an unfair barber shop in the Arcade
Place, and was formerly a porter in
an unfair barbershop in the Arcade
Annex, got on the rampage New
Years day and shot and killed Mrs.
Bess Connell after forcing his way
into her apartments at 381a North
Third street, and then shuffled off the
mortal coil by cutting his own worth
less throat with razor. Mrs. Con-
nell is survived by four children,
Marie, Mrs. Stella Woodland, William
and John, and one sister, Mrs. G. A.
Baughman, all of this city. The
funeral of Mrs. Connell was conducted
Wednesday afternoon and burial made
in Cedar Hill cemetery. Nothing
much is known of Lowe except he
came here from Pittsburgh about
two years ago after graduating from
a term in the workhouse, and has
been been employed at odd jobs since.
The prevailing sentiment is that he
did the taXnayers a good turn by
killing himself as he thereby saved
them several thousand dollars court
costs.

BIG CROPS, BUT BUSTED"

Louisiana farmers raised this year
100000 bushels of sweet potatoes
and will sell less than 100000
bushels. The remainder will rot or
be fed to live stock.
These farmers also produced 8,000,-
900 gallons of molasses from their
cane. If million gallons are sold it
will be wonder.
These two items are picked out from
many by the commissioner of agri-
culture of Louisiana to show what
came of the advice given to southern
farmers to diversity their crops and
become prosperous.
"The farmers diversified" says the
commissioner, raised large crops and
have gone broke. They are offering
their crops for practically cost of pro-
duction, in some instances less, and
can not find buyers"

the logical choice.

TALLY similar name, while large
number of Ohio corporations employ
Buckeye" in their title. The name
of Logan" has become so we'll known
through more than twenty years of
operation that the management has
decided that the best interests of the
business and it's patrons will be better
