GRANT FIRE CHIEF
LEAVE OF ABSENCE
Commissioners Give Watson
Chance to Recover From
Throat Trouble.

Fire Chief George S. Watson, who
has been suffering from throat
trouble for some time, will be granted
indefinite leave of absence by the
Commissioners this summer to re-
cuperate.
The chief will not be able to leave
the city before July l because of the
Shrine convention. He also has pur-
chases Of hose and apparatus to make
before departing.
There is no thought in the minds
of the Commissioners of retiring Chief
Watson at this time. Comm sioner
Oyster regards him an efficient and
capable officer and it Is felt that after
a good rest he will be able to re-
sumo his duties.
The past year has been a hectic
one for the fire department. with
second alarms ringing at regular in
tervals keeping the chief on the
move night and day.
Deputy Chief Andrew ]. Sullivan
probably will act as head of the de-
partment during the absence OF
Watson.

against convenient lamp-po
Near by was call box, and the officer
was waiting for the stroke of twelve,
when he would send in his report to head
quarters.
Before him lay the city park, we'll stud
ded with poplar, oak, and elm trees;
while here and there appeared small con-
ical-shaped evergreens and other orna-
mental shrubbery. Indistinct grayish
lines curved about through the lawns.
Pathways they were, fanked with flower
beds unseen in the darkness. Two or
three white shadowy forms loomed ghost
like, as the faint light from the lamp
posts found its way through the light
ground-fog and reflected their marble
contours like silent sentinels on guard.
Beyond, and aloft through the tree tops,
arose the outline of the courthouse High
in the air, and projected against the
darkened sky, stood the tower with its
Illuminated clock, while upon its pinnacle
stood bronze figure of Justice with
sword and scales in hand; majestic, in
spring, eternally at her exalted post.
To she policernan's left, rose towering
Office buildings, grim and dark, while at
his right stretched long and seemingly end
less avenues, whose myriads of lamp
posts resembled strings of luminous
pearls. Behind him was another stretch
of parked greensward, hundred yards
in width, and almost identical to the one
before him. A circular grove of weep
ing willows clustered about fountain
whose falling waters could be family
heard. Now and then night-bird called
to its mate or Auttered about among the
overhanging branches.
Across the park was the Pasadena club
house, frequented by the rich and grand.
Aside from. the lights from the ornamen-
tai iron lanterns which hung at either
side of the great arched doorway, and
that which shone through the art-glass
window above, the huge marble structure
resembled a masoleum. Its large plate
glass windows were hung with heavy
blue velvet curtains, which hid from view
the lights and the social activities within.
Beyond, and for many blocks, lay row
after row of beautiful mansions. This
district was precisely the opposite of that
which lay beyond the courthouse. Streets
fanked by frame dwellings of the med
ium working class, rows of dilapidated
tenements, and the river, bordered with
the usual unsightly buildings and little
novels of the poor. Across the river at
each street, was bridge at the other end
of which, huddled together as if for pro-
lection, were scores of saloons, cheap
lodging houses, brothels, and pool halls,
habituated by the underworld and all of
its vultures. Square after square,
ranged the squat rickety huts of the
slums, interspersed by an occasional Sal
walton Army hall and numerous foreign
stores.
Patrick Feegan looked at his watch; he
had one minute more to wait before pull
ing his box. An occasional taxi honked,

Then followed several more columns of
weird and Incredibly mysterious conjec-
tures. The teeming populace was filled
with excitement, while the police admitted
that they were completely baffled. The
"Nurses Home" was beseiged by friendly,
interested, and curious visitors, all of
whom were politely refused admission.
Thus the day wore on. Night fell, and
another day dawned A week passed by,
and the strange events became only a
memory. Only the police and the nurses
were now. concerned in finding a solution
to the mysterious happenings; the news
papers had other things to exploit. A
deaconess was assigned to escort Miss
True about the city, in the hope that some
scene might restore her memory of the
past, but to no avail. However, after a
time, she evinced desire to accompany
the nurses upon their calls among the
poor, the wretched, and the i'll. This de-
sire was readily granted, and Miss True
seemed delighted at the prospect of see
ing under the crust of society, and so her
rev life began.
Her first days work took her to howell
where poverty and Incidence were linked
with toll and blind hope; where filth and
wretchedness abounded. This home, sit
uated upon the river bank, sheltered a
family of three. The father, lazy, un-
couth, filthy, and domipeering ooked
much more than his forty years of age.
The mother, short and slight of build,
his junior by at least ten years, yet
stopped and bent with toll, page 2, Col. 81
