HIS FUN NOT ENDED.
Ilugns Tiro Alarmist Villi Continiio
Ills l'lonsuru This Alternoon,
Louis Schoen, n West Side laundry
man, was tu rested last evening by
Lieutenant of Police Williams, of the
West Side pteclnet, cm a chaige of
having tinned In a false fire alarm
ftom Hox ."-, nt the corner ot Main
avenue and Jucksou streets, Thutsday
night. He was pet milted to be ut lib
erty on his own tecognlKunee until this
afternoon at it o'clock, when he will be
given u hearing befoie Mayor Halley.
Schoen, It Is alleged, turned In the
iilaim as n Joke and for the puipoi-e of
cieatlng excitement at the Franklin
Knglne company's ball, which was in
piogtesH at the time near the coiner
wheie Uox r,r Is located. The infor
mation on which the watrunt for
Somen's attest was Issued by Mayor
llJiley was mud by Chief Hlckev, of
the Die depaitment, who hud obtained
his evidence through Lieutenant AVII
llams. It was suspected Thutsday night that
Schoen was the culptlt, but his uirest
was defeired until .vestetday In older
that evidence ugulnst lilm might be
secured. Lieutenant Williams found
two witnesses who have leluctantly
admitted thev stood near Schoen when
he bioke the gluss enclosing the box
key and sounded the ularm.
When Lieutenant Williams served
the win i ant on Schoen ut the Star
laundry, of which lie Is pioprletor, he
admitted his guilt und seemed very
penitent. He said he was not wholly
conscious of what he was doing and
did not then leallze the setiousnc.ss of
his net; he "only Intended to give the
bos a 'run' ami have some fun."

tering upon Its last stage. It passes
at once up a long Incline called the
"slit" a ttencli of wood about eight
inches deep and two feet wide ut the
top, so hollowed out that the largest
log will lie in it securely as it Is being
diawn up the Incline by the stout
cliuiiis with which the silt Is equipped.
Projecting pieces of steel on this chain
setve to keep the log steady. Its gieat
weight causing it to sink upon these
pieces of steel, which aie like shaip
teeth. A wotkman, standing at the
side of tlio slit, by means of u. lever
tlnows up two powerful steel-pointed
urms which lift the logs out of the slit
and thtow them upon tables, fiom
which they are lolled down to the car
tinge which leads to the saws When
the log reaches the cart lage.it is thiown
upon the ftameworl; by the "nlggei"
a long, latcheted timber, or titecn of
Nsteei. This framework Is like n sec
tion of an otdinnry llat-car running on
a regular tallioad track Two men
stand on the moving cattlage, and, at
a signal from the head sawyer, who
dltects the cutting of the log, u-gil-lates
the thickness of the plank or
boaul by the levers of the catrlago.
When the log has been adjusted It
tapldly advances to the saw, and In
a very few seconds Its wuter-soaked
sides have been tiimmed by the sharp
teeth. The cairiape Dies back to the
stat ting place with the swirtness of
the wind; and it Is enough to make one
shudder to see it go. You expect evety'
instant that one of the men will be
thrown off and terrlbjy injuied. They
learn to balance themselves,- how ever,

One Instunt of inattention on tho patt

At this time of the yenr many com
plex municipal questions me stirring
the councils and other city depart
ments. Some of these while being con
sidered Independently are Identified lu
inoie wnys than one. This Is paitlcu
latly ttue of choked sewers nnd dirty
streets
In select council Thursday night Mr.
Fellows intioduced a resolution ptovU
Ing, whereas sevetnl main und lateral
sewers were not large enough for prop
er drainage, that the city engineer ptc
paie an estimate of cost for relaying
and lepaltlng bitch seweis and submit
tlie same to councils. From the tesolu
tlon It might be Intoned that the sow
ers had b"en Impropeily constiucted
and had been designed loo small. Con
ttary to this view Is u statement con
tained In the typewritten explanation
of the street commissioner accompany
ing his estimated cxpendltutes for
1S9S which says the sewers ore bound
to become choken and Inadequate If no
suitable provision is mude (I) for
cleaning the sheets und (2) for clean
ing the basins.
Confirming the position of the sticet
commlssldner is a pertinent comment
made by hlin und the city engineer In
their joint communication to councils
In tifeience to the Fouith dlstiict main
sewer, The communication rads:
SI3WI3U BASINS CHOKKD.
The gi cutest trouble with our sys
tem of sewers is the blocking or chok
ing of the stieet basins or Inlets. Very
few of our c itlzens understand the con
stiuctloti of our sewer basins nnd in
their Ignotuiice condemn the sowers,
when as a matter of fact, when the
basins ate blocked with sediment no
water enters the sewei. It may be In
tel estlng to know that while our basins
appear deep (eight to nhi" feet) that
on account of the ttans placed In them
to pt event dill, etc, beitit washed into
the sewer they hold but froai one to
ono and one-half cubic yards of dirt
belore the trap is blocked and the wat
er ceases to Dow into the sewer, hence
the necessity of constant care and
watchfulness nnd vigilance on the pait
of the piopet officials to pi event block
ade of stteet basins.
"The councils should provide libei al
ly for the sewer depattment. A saving
of one or two thousand dollars from
this department may appear very well
in the appropriation ordinance tut it
Is veil I oor economy when you have
to pay 'ive oi six times as much
through the couitr foi damages caused
by DooiK When sowers are once con
si luetej, piopeity owners should be
compelled to nnve the guttcis In front
of their n'bpectlve piopertles, so as to
convy the suiface watir to the bas
ins." THI3 1S9S I3STIMAT13.
In Mi. JJunning'H 1S9S estimate for
the stieet department h asks for
?G,r.OO for cleaning sewers and $3,000 for
repalting them. Pining 1S07 these ap
pioprintlons were J4,r00 and 53,000 te
spectlvely. Along with his estimates
for these Items he calls th attention
of councils to ho fact that unless the
sewer basins are kept eiean the city
will eventually be put to gteat expense
for repaiifc.
It Is ntgued that c'.eanpr streets will
lessen the tendency of the basins to
choke. A slmilit argatr.ent Is made
against ditty atic-Hs and unpaved gut
tcis. The tesolutlon Introduced by Mr.
Fellows providing for an estimated
coat of sewer repairs is nlloged by
councllmen of outlying wards, to he
intended to inlluenc-i property ownets
of those localities against Eeweia by
implying that they arc an eDcnblve
luxury even after tho flrst cost Ins
beer paid. Mr Stanley mode hlb
charges when the Fellows lesolutlon
was presented but the Imputation was
challenged by Mr. Chittenden.

Great musicians use Klmb.ills. The
testimony of musicians who command
a salary ot from $1,000 to $2,000 for each
performance must be accepted as hav
ing weight. Thej', nt least, escape the
charge of not knowing what they are
talking about. Lillian Nordlca says:
"The more I use my Kimball piano the
better I like It." Jean De Reszke says:
"We have concluded to purchase Kim
ball pianos for our personal use." John
Philip Sousa claims: "The Kimball
piano Is Dtst-clabs In eveiy respect."
Some of the most beautiful cases in
walnut, mahogany and oak can be seen
hoie. I have borne One large pianos,
all colois, fiom $2M to $350, on easy
term.s, and n tetm of lessons free.
