According to Stalo Fire Warden Johnson during tho six months that the Nebraska lira commission has been In existence, tho losses through fire, whoso origin Is unknown, amount ed to $176,000. Ibis Is practically on third of tho total fire loss of the stato durjnif tho period named. It may bo assumed, therefore, that thoao fires were either Incendiary or due to aoms person's carelessness. Carelessness in tho handling of in flammable material, said tho commis sion, and in building of ilroa is so common that It might be called tho rule rather than the exception. "During tho Inst six months," Bald Mr. Johnson, "about one-sixth of tho number of the ilres that occurred Jn Nebraska have been caused by the careless use of gasoline. The prop erty destroyed from such ilres is valued at about $100,000, whilo a num ber of lles were lost. So common is the loss of life and property through the reckless use of gasoline that this department invites the cooperation of the authorities of the public schools of the state, as well as the managers ami teaphers of prlvuto schools. Work for Teachers. "Teachers could contribute to this educational work by talking to their purdls on this subject and warning them of tho dangers Involved in the careless use of gasoline or other In flammable material and Impressing up on them that it is the duty of children as well as of adults to assist in this work of cutting down the flro loss. The Are loss through tho careless use of matches has amounted In tho last six months to about $20,000. The match is a necessary of life, but in the hands of children, or jn a place where rats may reach them, they bo come very destructive. "Jhe defective Hue has cost the people during the last six months about $40,000. Careful inspection of flues would have greatly reduced this loss If it did not altogether abolish it." Loses Mind After Reprimand. Thomas J. Blgley of Beatrice was brought to the insane hospitnl here by Sheriff Schelk. Though It Is sajd Blgley worried over his debts to a considerable extent, worry over a rep rimand from the court for his action as a juror Is said to have been the final straw that overthrew the man's reason. The story brought from Be atrice is to tho effect thnt tho court ordered the Jury In the Chamberlain case to remain together, but thnt on one occasion Blgley left the Jury room alono for a few minutes. For tliis he was reprimanded by the court and the matter preyed on his mind, which had already hecn weakened by worry over financial troubles. Greek Letter Men Flee Quarantine.
