PREPARING FOR A FIRE DAY
Legislature Sets Aside First Friday
in November of Each Year.
WOULD REDUCE CHANCE OF FIRE
Fir Commissioner Randall Sends to
tho Schools Copies of tho State
Law, aa Well as Text Book
on tho Subject.
At Its last session the Nebraska legisla
ture passed a law fixing and designating
the first Friday of November eaeh year
as a state fire day. That the pulblo may
be made familiar with the provisions of
the measure. Chief Deputy Fire Commis
sioner Randall Is sending to the schools
of ths state copies of the law, the gov
ernor' proclamation upon the subject
and a textbook In which are a series of
lectures which teachers are requested to
read to their pupils.
The state fire day law la designed, to
leseen the number of fires and thus re
duce the loss and damage to a minimum.
In the schools teachers are expected to
hold appropriate exercises for the day,
the Idea being to arouse an Interest In
the law and In Its enforcement. Songs,
appropriate to the occasion and suitable
recitations are recommended.
The new law provides that In addition
to the work of rire day, thirty minute
In each month In each and every school
in the state shall be devoted to the sub
ject of fire dangers and In this way In
augurate a uniform crusade against
keeping matches In anything except
metal boxes will be exacted. The dan
gers of using gasoline will be explained
In detail and the children will be asked
to agree not to celebrate the Fourth of
Juy by shooting toy pistols, firecrackers,
Roman candles, skyrockets and other
dangerous explosives.
In Issuing his warning to the public
Mr. Randall urges the Inspection of
chimneys, stovepipes and all manner of
heating apparatus, particularly at this
.time of the year, contending that an
hour spent with the old pipes, chimneys
and stoves right now may. result in sav
ing many thousands of dollars later on.

SAFE, BUT LEAPS TO DEATH
Passenger Takes Fatal Chance tu
Anto-Traln Race for
Crossing.
Four men, crouched In the tonneau of
a flying automobile whose driver had
taken tha only chance left to him and
raced In front of the Iong Island tall
road's Block Island express at the Main
street crossing. Center Moriches had
three seconds In which to decide whether
to Jump or trust to the car besting the
locomotive of the thundering train.
The railroad curves sharply at the
crossing and the tracks lie deep In a
cut. It Is Impossible to see approaching
trains, and the quartet first realised
that the express was upon them when
It was but a few rods dlstnnt.
The Impetus of the car was so greet
that the driver Instantly realised that to
retard the automobile would be to court
certain death. There was but one minij
to do. and he did It. Hhoutlng to nis
companions, he put on every ounce of
power the machine was capable of. and
took a firm grip on the wheel.
He gauged the distance, measuring It
with hie eye as the car leaped forward
Ilka a thing of life. The other three
mad their own calculations. They knew
that should the car pass ahead of the
locomotive by so much as the fraction
of an Inch they would be safe. And
they were equally certain that should it
fall by so much as thst fraction the Im
petus of the train would either drive
the car Into the rocky out or grind It
beneath tha wheels.
After tha driver's shout not a mn In
the car apoka a word, so It was said
afterward. Tha four watched the on
coming train and made mental calcula
tions. Suddenly one man stood up. He
was James J. Barrett, of 684 Bergen
street. Brooklyn.
It was avldent to the others that Bar
rett had made his decision and was going
to Jump. , But not one of the other
three moved an Inch. They continued to
crouch and hold on.
It all happened quickly, but It seemed
a long time before Barrett went over
the side. He landed on his feet directly
In front of ths ponderous locomotive.
Just as ths automobile sped by with a
couple' of Inches to spare. The engine
wan over the man. grinding him to bits,
before the csr he had deserted was a
foot from the tracks.
The car's driver brought Ills machine
to a stop within a short distance, and the
train cam to a stand. The occupants
of the machine were completely unnerved,
but they summoned Dr. P. B. Fowler,
Who lives In r neighborhood. There
was nothing for him to do, and the
coroner waa notlfled.-New York World.

"What function does the Iron In the

"Converted Into steel by the mysteri
ous agenclea that operate In the human
body," glibly answered the young man
who had not studied the lesson, "and
wrought Into hair springs of the finest
temper. It serves, i fancy, to renulaie
the reciprocal action of that wonderful
balance wheel of the human machine, Jic

teacher, "but It will not get you any
