The first alarm to which the Hope Hose Company's auto fire wagon has been called on to attend was telephon- ed ‘in this morning to the headquarters in Water street by James Forbush. of Maple street. The call found Driver Corcoran right on the job and it was just two minutes and fifty seconds by Chief Mllnc's watch from the firm that the call was received to the time that the truck arrived at the scene of the fire. The chief was more than pleased and said that Mr. Corcor an drove like a veteran and was not the least flurrled or excited. The run was made slowly until Wall street lev- el was reached and then the wagon was speeded up. The fire was a chim- ncy blaze doing no damage and was put out by extinguishers in the hands of Chief Milne and Driver Corcoran. A POINT AIOUT RUFFED GROUOE.

Said to Have Covered 20.000 Miles In Less Than Three Years In Asia. A wonderful record as a traveler has been achieved by iiash, the smooth haired fox terrier which accompanied Dr. M. A. Stein. the archaeological ex- plorer, throughout his great journey of ten thousand miles. undertaken on be"- half of the Indian government. through Central Asia into China and back, says the London Daily Mail. Though the aggregate of the march- es amounted roughly to ten thousand miles In two years and eight months. the actual distance covered by Dash. taking Into account his canine habits of progression. may be estimated at well over twenty thousand miles. Dash made that journey on foot practically the whole way. except when he went "pony back" for short distances at times of great heat. When in the Taklamakan Desert Dash, like the rest of the party, had his water al- lowance strictly limited. it came from the supply carried on camels in the form of ice, Dash went over mountain passes as high as 16.000 feet above sea level. -Throughout the journey the dog kept well and his menu was made up of scraps from the camp larder. Each night he slept in Dr. Stein's tent. and on occasions proved himself a very useful watchdog. 0n the high Thllic- tan uplands his chief recreation was chasing wild donkeys. yaks and the. like He managed to kill several hares and bring them In to supplement the store of food. Upon many journeys along the ln- dlan Northwest frontier Dash has also been the comrade of his master. and he has probably seen far more of the world than most people. He has true British terrier blood in his veins, al- though indie. was his birthplace. The dog is now in quarantine after hav- ing come from India. , HUMILITV. Patrick F.

"com- pare our country with foreign ,Iands, and compare ourselves with the for- eigners we have no cause for humility. No cause to emulate the local preach- er. . "A poor local preacher was once invited to a luncheon given by his bishop to all the pastors of the dio- cese. These pastors were for the most part. eloquent, learned and successful ' men. The local preacher felt very humble among them. . “A few minutes after the beginning of tholuncheon the bishop noticed. at the foot of the ions table. a subdued commotion. Then a strange and hor- rible odor heated to him. “Hear me.’ he exclaimed. wrinkling up his nose, ‘there' a a very odd smell in the room. I, tbiuk.’ “A profound and awkward silence ensued. Then. in the midst of this si- lence, the local preacher said calmly and modestly: “ ‘It It only my egg, bishop.’ “The bishop turned to one or his servants: “Take the gentleman's egg away: he said. ‘lt' a a bad ous.’ “ 'Oh. no. bishop; said the local preacher. continuing to eat on. ‘Do not trouble. air. it. is quite punch for mew—Philadelphia uiietiia O THOROUOHLY PREPARED.
