Proper IIonHe Protection.
An epidemic of fires lias recently broken
wit in this country. The loss of lifo and
hc destruction of iroierty have in many
-n-o bcn :ippllinjr. Houses and struc
tures oin-idered fireproof have been swal
lowed up and whole families blotted out
jf exigence. In some t-a-cs wheroa state

stone is left upon another. The question
of what to do in case of flro is brought I
home to every person.
Suppose yuii are a guest m a hotel and
you aro awakened suddenly by tho cry of
fire. The first thing a hotel guest should
tfo on entering his room is to locate the
nearest outside fire escape. After that ho
should familiarize himself with the loca
tion of the hall wiudowsand discover their
relation to the roof of-thoadjoiningbuild-ings.
He should next learn tho position
of tho stairs and their top and bottom
landings. The top landing particularly
ho should know all about, as well as tho
method of egress to tl.o roof. All this in
formation tho guest can acquire in ton
minutes or ier-s. After making these- in
vestigations, should a fire break out, ho
knows his relative location and his vari
ous avenues of escape.
Hero aro some rules which are good toe
niember, and somo dayor night they might
save your life: Should tho cry of firo be
given and volumes of smoke fill tho corri
dors and tho room, tho thing above all
others to do is to keep cool. Keep cool,
kcop coo, keep cool, no matter how seri
ous the fire seems, is good advice.
When smoke clogs the corridors, follow
theso instructions:
1. Keep tho door and transom of the
room shut.
2. Open tho windows from tho top.
3. Wet n towel and stuff it in tho mouth.
Breathe through it instead of through tho
nose. It will keep tho smoke, cinders
and firo from tho lungs, and its moisture
will have a revivifying effect.
1. Stand at tho window and got tho
benefit of the outsido air.
5. Should then bo a rope fire escape,
use it only whoa you deem it necessary
for your safety. If it is secured, as many
of them are, merely by an iron hook, twist
it several times around some 6olid article
in tho room. Then begin your descent.
" It Is a dangerous experiment at best; and
there is only one safo way of doing it.
That way is this: Protect the bands by
covering them with towels or anything "of
. liko nature. Grasp the Topo firmly by
both hands, twist it once around the right
leg then, placing it between the feet, keep
them firmly together, and in that position
slide down the rope ns slowly as possible.
A woman should go down the rope in tho
same way. In the averago caso her clothes
will permit her to make an easier descent
lhan a man.
6. If possible, never let n woman or
child descend on a rope alone Tho bus
band should secure tho ropa under his
wife's arms, place soin'o article of furni
ture higher than tho window sill near
the window, and then let tho woman de
scend by paying out tho rope gradually.
If tho child is small, it is well to tio it
with bedclothin -o the breast or back of
the person going down the ropo.
7. Never jumpunlessthoblazoisscorch
ing and not then if tho'firemen with their
scaling ladders are coming up tho build
ing or aro near.
8. Xever go to the roof unless as a Inst
recourse, whrn ybu know that there is no
escape from it to adjoining buildings. In
the big buildings fire always climbs to thB
top.
9. If caught in a corridor or a room,
always keep crouched to the floor and
keep close to.thc wall. Keep as 'ow ea
possible. Firo and sinoVs nscen-'
10. If a'jump must bo - mado through
fiamo within a building to tho lower floor,
judgo the distanco as carefully as possiblo,
throw a blanket or covering over the head
and make the leap. Then remove the cov
ering, breathe but littlo aud carefully,and
work gradually along tho corridor until
safety is reached.
Another thing not to forget is when tho
men in bluo aro in sight, don't jump.
They'll climb walls and go through smoKo
and iirc. Their mission is to save life7
and they'd rather dlo themselves than
fail in thoir duty. If by any possibility
they can't reach a window or a roof,
they'll spread tho lifo net at f ho base and
be ready to reccivo the jumper.
In private housed, if care- is exercised,
the dancer of fire can bo very crcatlv less-
t ir "mm
enod. Ono precaution not above tbe abil
ity of tbe ordinary householder is in sec
.lng that the lumps are properly lit and
actually extinguished; that the kitchen,
f'trnace and open grate fires need no watch,
and that all the doors throughout the
house are closed before retiring. Every
house should have a rear Maircae, and a
convenient and practical outlet to the
roof is also a condition that makes for
safety. A careful attention to the house
fires and the lamps prevents lire during
the night, while the shutting of the doors
prevents the rapid spread of the flames
and the outlet to the roof gives a chance
of escape. Above all, the construction of
the flues should be Iieyohd all suspicion.
With the flues in safe condition and with
nightly precautions exercised by house
holder and servants fires in private residence-,
should easily become the exception
lioth in the matter of frequency of occur
rence and fatality. As the Paris expert
says, what is chiefly- to be nought after is
' the gaining of time lietwcen the first out
break and the dangerous -pread of the
Hamo-. If the simpler precautions will
effect till, they should not be overlooked,
for, as no radical change- in liouso con
btruction or home life can bo expected, it
is upon.riic-o precaution we must depcud
, to stave life and protect propel ty.
It is probable that in the future there

some houses liavo thec precautions.
Cement floors and steel beams h.io been
introduced into sonic dwellings, but even
in these houses the stairs are generally
wood. In general, houses are built ns they
always were, but, if anything, less safely.
The joists and beams are lighter, though
the walls nro thicker. The windows are
bigger and less well protected by shutters.
The doors and other openings are larger.
The staircases are roomier. The interior
finish of oiled wood is more inflammablo
than plaster, though nothing could bo
worse than' the lath and plaster of 30
years ago. The heat is more widely dis
tributed, evener and the house tighter; so
that all gets drier.
Our severe climate keeps fires higher
and the houses drier. Where in England
the outer woodwork is damp more than
three-quarters of the time with slow rain,
hero two-thirds of the time tho outer air is
dry Wood, also, is cheap and plentiful,

staircases are used ins many boues and aro

T3uilt as many of our houses are, the
wonder is not that they burn, but that so
many escape. For this reason, if a fire

LAND OF OMAR KHAYYAM.
A Country Likely to Come Into
Greater Importance.
It is probable that tho American re
spects Persia for only two things its
carpets and the Rubaiyat of Omar
Khayyam. Beyond these two there is
little known of the country save that it
was once ruled by Darins, Cyrus and
Series, and that Babylon and Nineveh
were once its chief cities. But tbe Brit
ish foreign offics aud the Russian min
ister of foreign affairs know that the
land has been a bone of contention be
tween the two countries for upward of
a hundred years 'and that the time is
rapidly approaching when it must be
divided, go that the Persian problem
may be removed from the diplomatic
arena.
It ii currently reportel that tho ap
pointment of Lord Curzon to the vice,
royalty of India was because of his
great familiarity with the Persian ques
tion. No wan in England is better fit
ted to deal with the proposed partition
of tho shah's domain than he, for hia
long residence at Teheran and his sub
sequent studies of the question have
mado him absolute master of its small
est details. Tho proposal is to divide
tho country by a rough lino rnnning
east and west through the center, giv
ing the northern section to Russia and
adding tho southern half to India.
As matters stand now. Persia is go
ing from bad to worse. She has no
laws, save thoee imposed by the power
ful; no justice, save that which is pur
chasable; no state treasury, savo the
ehah's private pnrso, and no enterprise,
save that which is Russian or English.

Complexion asset Hair Specialists.
The brilliant complexions of women in the.more exclusive circles of New
York society are not explained by the theory that associates beauty and idle
ness. In fact, many leaders of the world of fashion are hard workers. Yet
they keep their good looks even when they are old. How do they manage
it? THE MISSES BELL, of 7S Fifth Avenue, New York, themselves con
nected with some of the most noted and honored families in the metropolis,
have answered the question. They have prepared for the use of women in
general, five preparations for improving the complexion and the hair.

government at Wa.-hington was well un
derstood and never doubted. His wife
was a devoutly Christian woniiiii, the
mother of 14 children nnd intciisely de

this day it is difficult tn realize tho mo
tives which actuated tlm-e hurtles of hu

and unity, plundered the border farms of.
Missouri, coming with torch ami gun into
"Mis--ouri from the adjacent i-ounties of
Kansas and iiinviueKidlug as loyal sol

and cowardly. asasiiiaticm.
The liiurdi-r nf Coluiiel Younger by
biit-h a gang is what changed the whole
)i'Osi)cct of life for his suns, tho now no
torious Younger hoy, and drove them
from their peaceful life upon the farm to
the bloody careers which began with
Quantrell's dashing mid- and ended with
the assault and robbery of the Xorthticld
Hmk in Minnesota in 1M7.S. In tho early
days of their life as guerrillas the Younger
hoys were prompted, in a measure, by the
natural desire to avenge the cowardly as
sassination of their father, lint when tho
war was over and they returned to their
dismantled homes, willing to lay down
tho sword and gun, they wero not pi-rmit-ted
to do so. They were shot at as they
plowed in thu fields, their mother's homo
was burned, their crops were scatteied,
detectives hounded tlu'in, the world would
not forgive them, and litialrr they wero
driven again into a lifo of reckless out
lawry. "On one of .Teniiison's periodical' raids
in th j fall of ISC'.'," says Colonel John X.
Iltlwai-ds In Iil-r "Xuted Guerrilla-," "ho

and known to bo such, was mado to lose
heavily. Jeniiison and his officers tho
officers on all occasions Ix'ing moto rapa

$4,000 worth of buggies, carriages and
hacks and 10 head of blooded horses, worth
at a low averago $300 apiece. Then tho
balance of his property that win perish
able nnd-yet not movable was burned.
Tho intention was also to kill Colonel
Younger npou the principle that dead
men could tell no tales, but ho escaped
with difficulty and mado his way into In
dependence. Spies were on hi- track. In
that reign of hato and frenzy along he
border men wero as often murdered for
money as for patriotism. Jcnnison was
told that Younger was rich and that ho
invariably carried with him largo sums of
money. A plan was formed immediitely
to kill him. Twenty cutthroats wero or
ganized into n band under a Jayhawker
named "iVhalley and set to watch his every
movement. They dogged him to Inde
pendence, from Independence to Kansas
City aud from Kansas City down into
Cass county again. Coming upon him at
last- in an isolated place and within a few
miles of Hnrrisonvillc, they riddled his
iiody, rilled his pockets and left tho corpse
stark and partly stripped by tho roadside.
"Tho fire aud torment of persecution did
not end here. The mother and orphan

sup of misery was full, and one night a
mob attacked tho house, broke in tho
doors and windows and rushed upon the
dying woman with drawn revolvers, de
manding to know, upon her lifo, where
James and Coleman were. Among the
moh she recognized somo whoso hands
had ln-cn covered with hcrhusliand'slilood.
Furious at not linding James and Colo
man, after having searched for them every
where and stolen whatever aliout the scan
tily furnished houc tempted their lx-ggar-ly
greed, they laid hands upon John, the
youngest brother, carried him to tho barn,
put a rope about his neck, threw ono end
over a joist and told hint to say his pray
ers, for he had but a littlo time to live
unless he declared instantly whoro his
lirothers were. Ho defied them to do their

in the flesh. It was half an hour and
more beforo ho recovered. Not yet done
with him, tho mob wounded him with
sticks, beat him across tho shoulders with
the butts of muskets, tormented him as
only devils could and finally released him,
half dead, to return to his broken hearted
mother."
There is no reason to doubt that when
the civil war was over aud Cole ami James
Younger returned from California to their
devastated farm in Jackson county, Mo.,
they intended to settle down peacefully
anil lelmild their mother's home; but men
along the borders of Kan.-as and Miouri
who had felt tho strong hand of Quan
tivli's guerrillas would not suffer the
Younger- to live in peine. K cry crime
that was committed, every hoii-so that was
burned, every horse that was stolen, was
added to the long score against the broth-
ers. During this period Cole, James aud
.lohu Younger remained steadily at home.
They dared not light their lamps at night,
but in the daytime they chopped trees,
built a houso for their mother, made
fences nnd toiled like their pioneer fore
fathers had dono beforo them. Skulking,
-elf appointed vigilance men shot at them
from ambush, their crops were burned in
tho night, and anonymous letters warning
them to leave the country camo to them
frequenlly..
Unable to mako any headway against
such ob-taelcs to their peace, filially the
Y (-lingers quit their vain toil and entered
upon the careor of lawlessness which end
ed in tho Minnesota penitentiary.
I.rnp"th-r Sentence.
The tribunal of Modiea, in the Sicilian
provineo of Syracuse has just pronounced
i sentence which is declared to have no
parallel in tho judicial annals of Italy, as"
it has probably few in thoso of any other
rarontry. A man named I.upo Salvatore
of Couiiso, had passed himself off as an
advocate nnd had with consummate skill
committed 63 diffeicnt acts of serious
fraud, in which he succeeded in using tho
machinery of the law. Ho Iiad forged tho
signatures of tho president and judges of
tho high court, of tho king's procurator
and of tho chancellor of tho court. From
this'hist mentioned official he hud even,
with splendid audacity, stolen for a short
tiino tho seal of tho chancery, which ho
needed to" give effect, to his fraudulent
documents. The sentenco is even more re
luurknblo than arc the crimes. Salvatoro
was csndcmnud to three years' imprison
ment on each of tho C3 cases, which brings
the total of tho sentence to 189 years,
though tho. longest incarceration which
the convict can bo legally made to under
go is 30 years. Tho penalty inflicted is in .
each caso tho. minimum for tho offense.
Had tho court decided upon tho maxi
mum, which is ten years, the aggregate
term of imprisonment would havo been
1)30 years.

EMBARRASSING.
The Youiic: Srciiml Licntrnaiit's Mect
inpr AVitli tlio OIil Truopcr.
A young second lieutenant, who had
been gradnat'.'d from the first clas? a
couple of mrnths before the regular
graduation at'West Point, had jnst join
ed his regiment in Cnba and was walk
ing' down the street near the palace, in
Havana. He stopped on the corner, and
as he did so an old grizzled soldier with
a growth ot beard on his face and with
a cavalry sergeant's Ktripo on his
breeches, a blue shirt and a campaign
bat, but with no "other mark of rank
about his uniform except his sergeant's
stripe, walked slowly down and stopped
in front of the lieutenant, looking
aronnd at the different buildings. The
young officer fidgeted a few moments
under the manner in which the trooper
ignored his proximity, and finally turn
ed on him and said sharply, "Here,
yon man, did any one ever teach you
Low to salute?"
"Yes, sir," drawled the trooper, as
he glanced, at the youngster.
"Well, knock your heels together,"
said tho young officer, and the trooper
came to attention with tho precision of
i n old soldier.
"Now salute," lie said, nnd the troop
er's gauntlet came to the rim of his hat
and staid there until the young lieuten
ant answered it, at tho same time de
manding: "Now, remember this, and
don't let it happen again What is your
name, aud what do you belong to 7"
'Without relaxing his position from
attention, the old trooper again respect
fully saluted and remarked dryly "My
name is Samnel Snnmer, and I'm brig
adier general of the cavalry brigade;"
whereupon tho yonug lieutenant pro
ceeded to copy 11s ninny colors of the
rainbow with his face as was pos-dhlo
and slipped away ns soon as hu dared,
forgetting even to apologize. Balti-
