At the present time tho usefulness of the dopartment is greatly impaired owing to tho fact that the city does tiot possess uny ladders or hooks.

Should a fire break out and gain headway 1n uny of the large buildings in the city the five boys would ve corapelied to labor at’a great disadvantage, and wany thousand dollars worth of proverty would be destroyed. Chief Smith estimutes the costof u suit- avle truck to ve about §1,500, and the sadi- expense would be slight. Ono adai- tional man would have 10 be emploved and anothor team securod.

Loxpoy, Aug. 18.—[New York Herald Cable—Speciul to Tie Bre,]—The mar- ringe of tho new duchess of Devonshire this week occurred just 1n timo to avold another irksome delay, for her son, the duke of Man- chester, died at Tauderage castle, county Armogb, today. The auke, who was better known to Americans as Lord Mandeviile, and still better in cortain quarters as Unclo Kim, bad been seriously ill for months, and it was known for some time that his reckless man ner of living and many excesses had so shaken his constitution that his recovery was not believed possible. Itwas Mandelville's weakness rather than any other inherent vice that ted him into those disgraceful How street 1ncidents which made his name a byword 1n London. Probably the best day's work he ever ac- complished was that on which he married Miss Yzoagn, The duchess of Manchester Leld bor own in soclety against almost over- whelming odds. Recently the duke's health, together with @ tavdy seuse of proprioty, caused him to lead a quiet life, but the shadow of his former cscapades followed him, even to death’s door, for 1t is only n fow weeks ago that his nume was bandied about the police courts in conneetion with Bessie Bellewood, n variety uctress who succeeded iu procuring for her- self an unnuity of £100 vut of tho duke's ex- chequer, The new duke, 15 gears old, and at pres ent at Eaton, suceeeds to the . valuable es- which, by th will of nis grandfattier, were protected from auy acts of ~ folly which the late duke might take it into nis head to commit, It is in the rungo of possibilities that Mrs. Montague, who 1S now sery ing a yea fm- prisonment for cruelty to ter children, may one day become the auctiess of Mauchester for ber husband is in close proximity to suc cession to tho title. ————— ON A SERIOUS CHARGE. ered by Officer Ryan Locks Up an Old Man and Young Girl, An old man, who gave his namo as J. M McClellan, was arrested last night ana tem- porarily charzed with being & suspicious character. Today the nolice expect to file a more serious charge agaiust him. McClellan operates an employment agency, and tho polico claim that last night he tried to induce a girl named Kato Milier to enter a disreputablo resort, The girl suid she ap- phed to McClellan for a position and he as- sured her of steady work as companion to un old lady. Hothen started out to show her the place and fortunately before reaching the resort was naited by Oficer Ryan, to whom the whole story was told, and Me- Clelian’s urrest followed. Miss Milter is a 16-year-ola gitl and came to to look for work in a private fa Her parents live a few miies west of the city and a rly well-to-do and respectablo people. The young lady was cared for by the matron at the city jail last mgnt. . Ryan's Benefit Last Nig Tommy Ryaw's benefit took vluce at the Grand opera houso lust evening. The at- tendance was fair and the program excellent. The first evont was a three-round go be- tween Jim McCoy and Arlie Shay, which was a standoff. Wiloy Bvaus and Aurou Sberroy followed. They gave a ruttiing exhibition, in which some sUff blows were exchanged. Arthur Rothery and Mike Boden gave an interesting exhibition, and then ‘camo the windup between Itvan, the beneficiary, and DPaddy Brennan, = the Gothum heavywelght. It was clover and exhilerating, Ryan demonstrating ngain that he is.one of the cleverest pugilists in the world and & man liable to strip anyone in his class. Breonnan made u fine display of the art, but Tommy was more thau a mateh for him, country iR et Shoop Got the Star. At a meoting of the picnic committee of the Police Relief association heid last even- ing Officer Shoop was awarded tho old star offerod to the patrolman who sold the largest numver of tickets, The association cleared over $1,500 by tho sale of tickets and the ofticers are greatly pieased at the result, i DeWitt's Sarsaparilia elianle. Pears’ Soap Why is Pears’ Scap—the best in the world, the soap with no free alkali in it— sold for 15 cents a cake? It was made for a hospital soap in the first place, made by request; the doctors wanted a soap that would wash as sharp as any and do no harm to the skin, That means a soap all soap, with no free alkali in it, nothing but soap; there is nothing mysterious in it.
