Imperial coun cil's fiftieth golden jubilee session at Kansas City, Missouri, Juno 3, 4 and 6, 1924. BY CRAFTY FORGER ROSEBUtta, Oro., Jnn. 0. Aaron Woolornmn, aged 18, was arrested to 115 per cent of which nre absolutely preventable Mr. Stevens told of tho horriblo condition existing ilurlnK tho llerkeley firo, which he helped to flBht. Ho said that ln fifty minutes $10,000,(100 worth of property wus destroyed. This was tho worst fire lu history, au far as destruction In a short timo Is considered. Mr. Stevens also told of tho chief causes of firo, the first of which, ln order of their Importance, Is tfunollno. This Is one hundred times more dangerous than dynamite, for one reason becauso dy numito will not explode without a jar or without sottliiK firo to It, while giiHollno Jtfnltca when It comes ln vio lent contact with somcthliiK, which I ofton happens when Homethins Is beiiiB cleaned wth gasoline. onu other reason that gasoline is danger- I ous Is becauso It is the fume J that unite with oxygen that explode, in stead of the liquid. A , receptacle filled with gnsoilno is not dangerous, but one in which there is a small amount of gasoline that permits air to coma in contuct with tho liquid, Is quite dangerous.1 Tho next most dan gerous firo hazard is tho electrical appliances. - Cheap . extension cords and hanging lights over metal of nny kind is to bo avoided. Cnro should also bo taken to turn off the switch or completely disconnect, if possible, such tilings as electric Irons, toasters or anything of that description. Uigurs or cigarettes aro other things that should bo carefully watched, an ade quato ash truy und Htub holder should always be used. Htoves and ashes are often tho cnuso of a firo, especially mmmm John J. Me Graw, mnnnger of I returned on tho 8. S. Leviathan the New 'York Giants, with Mrs. I from his trip to 10 u rope.
