Upon motion by Mr. Jardine, the commissioners decided to hold a spe- cial session on Monday morning, De- cember 13, by which time, it is be- lieved, the city officlale will have un- derstandable plans upon which to base intelligent opinion. “The more I hear of this tae less know," declared Commissioner Jardine. “I am in favor of a fire alarm box in every school and would favor installing 200 more boxes in the business district, as proposed, but I do not favor voting to appropriate $60,000 for 200 fire alarm boxes. I think that amount is too high,” was a statement made by Commissioner Kugel. Get Estimate of Cost. Commissioner Hummel's idea was that ! - city should first prepare a plan and get an ostimated cost from an expert, in reply to which suggestion Commissioner Withnell proposed that the city advertise for bids and let bidders submit their plans. A question raised by Commissioner But- ler was, “Who does E. R. Townsend of Chir~go represent? That is what I would like to know." Some one ventured to say that Mr. Townsend represents the National Board of Fire Underwriters. Mr. Townsend ap- peared before the city council two months ago and made an eloquent plea in behalf of a modern fire alarm system for Omaha. For Centrnl District. In his report to the council Commis- sioner Withnell proposes to install 200 new fire alarm boxes in the “high value business district” bounded by Lake, Plerce and Twenty-fourth streets and the estimated annual maintenance charge being placed at $,000, which includes a It is allegeq that the installation of the 200 fire alarm boxes and the motorization fire houses will be ac- cepted by the underwriters as sufficient surance rating from 24 class to 2 class, a reduction of about 10 per cent in pre- miume. Commissioner Jardine called the atten- 'tion of the commissioners to the fact that Omaha's annual fire loss s exceptionally low, considering population, area and valuation. Calls Come Wrong. Misunderstanding of calls sent in by telephone was given as another argument in favor of the fire alarm boxes. It is stated that forty-four of the alarms sent in this year over the telephone were mis- !understood on account” of imperfect enunciation of the senders. It is explained that the telephone servioe would be nec- essary with the best fire alarm box sys- tem. The city now has 112 fire alarm boxes, most of which are said to be antiguated. In a talk to the commissioners J. w. furnishing the city with efficlent means of communicating with the fire depart- ment in times of fire. He explained that all fires are small at the start and the ohief thing to be desired is quick and reliable means of notification.

OMAHA s HAS CONNECTIONS “Wounded and missing.” Charles E. Hochstetler, formerly of Kansas City and now a resident of England, brother of F. B. Hochstetler of this city and a cousin of Mrs. Kir- kendall, who has visited in Omaha many times and is well known here, knows what the three words given above mean to the women of Europe. In April, 1914, he married a daugh- ter of the late General C. M. Griffith- Bombay, staff corps in the Win- chester cathedral, Winchester, Eng- land. He had five brothers-in-law in the regular British army, all officers, and since the death of Captain Lewis, has four. On October 19, 1914, Captain H. F. Lewls, Royal Queens West Surrey regi- ment, a brother-in-law of Mr. Hoch- fell ip a skirmish near the village of Ledgehem, Belglum, near Ypres. In due time he was reported “wounded and missing” by the war of- fice. After thirteen months of indefati- gable search by his wife and relatives his fate was ascertalned November 10, He had been killed, his body found and burfed In the churchyard at Ledgehem, erman Troops Surprised Him. Captain Lewls' regiment was trans- ferred from Bermuda to South Africa just before the outbreak of war. Imme- diately the regiment was ordered to Eng- and and went to France as a part of General Frenoh's expeditionary force. On October 19 cavalry rode through a vil- lage near Ledgehem and reported it un- ocoupled, but bicycles stacked against & bullding. A squad sent out to recover the bicycles did not return, Cap- tain Lewis then was directed to proceed with another squad to the village to in- vestigate. Riflemen of a German bicycle troop surprised Captain Lewis' command and killed or captured all save one pri- vate who, wounded, crawled back to his company through a turnip patch. He brought word that Captain Lewis had been shot through the cheek and fallen. He thought he was not killed, After a Year of Searching, On November 10 this year a document in Flemish was recelved by relatives of Captain Lewis, forwarded by the Belgian Red Cross soclety. Translated, it proved to be an affidavit of two Masons made before the burgomaster of Ledgehem, Oc- tober 23, 1914, stating that the “body of Captain H. ¥, Lewls, C. K., Queen's regi- ment,” was found by them on October 19 and buried in the Ledgehem church- yard. The identification is considered positive, as it apparently was made from the metal disc which British officers year about their necks. “'C. E.” stands for the Church of England, each disc stating the religious preferences of the wearer. Earl 0'Brien Has Real Tame Goldfish Earl O'Brien of the Henshaw has an unusual pet that attracts much attention from patrons of the hotel's rathskellar. It is a tame goldfish of a rather frenk- ish variety, having a bright ring of xold marking at the base of its big fan-i uham‘d tail. It is so tame that it fearlessly eats tasty morsels of food held under the sur- face of the admirer.
