LIVE NEWS OF WESTJSCRANTON FIRE PROTECTION BETTER TOO EARLY THAN TOO LATE. Additional Arjjuments Why This Big and Live Section of tho city Should Not Be Helpless Balo of Hay Catches Tiro and An Alarm ricud Sends In An Alarm Flag Raising Saturday at Continental. St. Cccella'e Society Elcct3 Offlcors. Fortunately for prospoctlv o bettor file piotectlon there arc but few per sons who concur In the opinion that "people need not bo alaimed, tho pres sure of the cltv water from the tiro hjdrnnts Is sulllclont to send a stream of water over the highest building on tho place, even on Gammon hill, with out the aid of a lire engine." Appar ently tho few holders of that opinion have forgotten the lire of last New Year's eve when much difficult wns ex perienced In securing a twenty-foot stream. In that instance tho steamer was of no use and the house only a short dis tance away from the fire hydrant. That residence wns on Price street, near I'llmorc avenue, and firemen say that had a decent steamer been available the fire would not have cost one-third what It did. Again, on Gammon hill about five months ago another fire staited in nn outside kitchen. A dis astrous fire nearly resulted. A garden hose wns more effective at that flro than the fire hose, simply because tho pressure was so low. It Is probably true that the whole West Side should not rise up In alarm, but with fit omen looking significant when the matter is mentioned: Insur ance rates Increasing with every writ ing of a new policy, and contractors deploring their high late of protection, theio Is need that the true facts be made known nnd some alarm be felt now lather than later after trouble has occured. Property owners, firemen, insurance men and business men aie seriously concerned, and the fact that the West Scranton board of trade has taken up the 'matter Is sufficient evidence that a high pressure is not a sure means of lowering insurance of property own ers.

About a jear ago a faim manage! named Kottetlch, liv ing In thu little town ot Knutbeuren,' lost by death a daughter who wns a. cripple.

The Kotteilch family had teeeived fortv .eight such letteis and had complied with the ro cpjests contained In them before tho police pot wind of tho swindle and in terfi red.

The Kotterlchs gladly gave Frau Wohlfai ther tho money and asked her to send It for them. Then thtv were Informed that their daughter had three children, who must bo chilstened and clad accotd Imj to their rank. After that the chil dren received tho gift of a chapel, but wore In need of an altar. Then strange things happened In Heaven: the twelve npostlcs needed new clothes, a fatnln-J broke out and nil the ansels would die ot hunger unless the Kotterlchs hent a pig, tho Angel Gabiiel lost his gold sword In driving back the devils, tho daughter committed a deadly sin and It would take 1.CC0 marks to save her from placatory. The Virgin, however, made presents fiom time to time. She sent a churn, later, a sofa, for which, however, an uoholsterer later tent a bill; then she thought Frau Kotterich needed a new bonnet, but as this camo unnccom panl"d by tho milliner's bill, the good woman thought It unkind. The family delivered S.400 mntks, t$2,100) In cash, besides many objects thut cost much money, to Frau Wohlfarther for the Virgin, when their medium of com munication with heaven was arrested, fiti f,irj4if, HAPPENINGS OF SOUTH SCRANTON PARTY IN HONOR OP CARRIE PHILIPS' BIRTHDAY.
