Repeated alarms from Box 3, at the

ing at 2 o'clock, brought out the meme
bars of the South Norwalk fire depart-
ment and sent them to adouble house in
Spring street. owned by Jacob M. Lay-
ton. and known as the Hyatt house.
Theoccupaut of one of the apartments
is William Kelly and family. The fire
was in their parlor, but they had extin-
guished it before the arrival of the fire-
men.
There was no flat sheet in the 0 him-
ney. Some burning soot fell down and
set fire to the wooden fire-board, which,
with the mantel and a door, were burn-
ed. The damage to the house is $25,
which is covered by insurance in a com-
pany Mr. Layton represents.
The Kelly family had some Christ-
mas decorations about the mantel. They
were destroyed, and a large hole was
burned iuthe carpet, causing a loss of
about $10.

Water in the Boiler loo Soon.
Henry Halverson, of Bridgeport, en-
gineer on the tug boat A. J. Beardsley,
which is dredging in Norwalk harbor,
was severely scalded, late Friday after-
noon.
He had drawn the fires, and started to
wash the boiler. It had not yet cooled
off, and when the cold water came in
contact with the pipes at great volume of
steam arose. Before Mr. Halverson
could get out of the way, the skin was
peeled from his hands, face and neck,
causing him to suffer terribly.
He went to the depot, and took a train
’ for his home, where he will be obliged
to remain some time.

laid in that street and the six inch pipe
up Mill Hill. Under the present condi.

was not sufficient water to run the motor

to Watch Highlanders.
One of the peculiar features of the in-
ternal administration of affairs in the Chi-
nese quarter was developed during the re-
cent agitetion over the expected raid of
blghbindere. It was nothing more or
less than abody of regularly organized
police who patrol the Chinese quarter and
report regularly to the head men of the
companies and consul general the deluge
of their countrymen.
Some three years ago, when the high
binders broke out in one of their feuds
the merchants of the Chinese quarter de~
tormlnod toobtain protection from these
lawless gentry, and as a result the Mer-
chants' Law and Order league was organ-
ized. It is purely Chinese in its organiza-
tidn and regime, and the men who con»
pose it are respected among the Chinese as
much as any of their other officials.
The life of a Chinese policeman, even
when "constubulury duty’s to be done,"
is an easy one. They do not wear uni-
forms, have no regular beats, but are here,
there and everywhere. Matters in the
Chinese quarter are conducted in a man-
nor different from those oi other portions
of the city. It is as much an empire with-
in itself as any part of the Celestial elit-
pire. In consequence the Chinese police
are a feature as indigenous to the district
as the lottery or opium den.
Each of the six companies, into which
the Chinese colony is divided, contributes
one or more of tl‘iese police officers. The
number to which each is entitled is regu-
lated by the membership or families hold-
ing allegiance to that company. In most
cases only one than has been appointed
from each, and the total number is now
scvcn, the some as at the time of the or-
ganization. A salary of $30 a month is
paid, unlit/the place is considered a sine-
curc. xv '
()no of the principal duties of those Chi-
nese police is to keep track of the worst
highbindors. When one of the latter bo-
gins to get offensive and declares himself,
the Chinese police kcup nclosc watch upon
him, and when the orders come from licori-
quarters that the highbtnder has gone for
enough, one of the regular police is notified
or a warrant is sworn out, the Iiighbindcr
thrown in jail and plenty of testimony is
always forthcoming to convict him of al-
most any crime.
While no uniform is worn by these
guardians of the Chinese police, under the
lapel of tho blouso each man wears a badge,
on which are the initials of the league and
the man‘s number. Whenever an occasion
arises for the Chinese policcnum to render
assistance to or require the aid of a regular
oillcer the badge is proudlg displayed, for
thcse men take no risks that are likely to
import] the regularity of tin-Ir pay day.
This is emphasized by the fact that the
original seven members (:f the league are
growing for and old in the service of their
masters.

they perform police (lutics. 'l'llcynicrely
