None of the experienced newspaper men happened to be in when the fire alarm rang, so the city editor sent the green reporter. After returning from the conflagration, the green reporter wrote laborlouslyfor a time, and turned the following over ro the city editor: "There was a fire alarm sounded about an hour ago. and a reporter for the Herald arrived at the scene of conflagration before the fire department, which responded promptly. Aft r the hose had been attached to the watet plug. It was found that the hose was too brief to carry the aqua pura to the flames, In seeming defiance of the fire department. Several of the firemen who were more excited than the others discussed the propriety of carrying the fire closer to the source of Water supply, but this plan was abandonee on account of the extreme heat of the flames. "In the meantime the fire fiend raged worse than ever, and kept on raging until the entire stable was reduced to ashes. The live stock was saved, with the exception of one cow, which was badly scorched, but will survive. The harness . nd other Items too numerous to mention perished in the flames. The reporter did not learn who owned the stable nor the street it was located on, but If the readers of the Herald will call up the tire department they can find out. There were several other Interesting fucts the reporter did not learn, but they ear.not be mentioned for lack of space." A Hard Luck Tale with a Sting. New York Times.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TOLEDO, O.. Sept. 5. To-day was raw and cold, but Tom Williams was at his best when he faced Toledo in the first game of the last series in this city. Mock, who has been the most successful Toledo pitcher against the Indianapolis batters, was. sent to the box, but he proved to be about as easy as any pitcher that has faced the team now fighting for the pennant. Williams let the home team down with four hits, and but for a few errors the score would have resulted in a shut out. Mock was found for eighteen safe hits, and they were secured at opportune times. O'Brien carried off the batting honors for the visiting team, securing five hits In five times at the bat. Fox, Coulter and Kihm were also successful with the stick. Indianapolls scored one in the first on a pass to Hogrlever and Kihm's two-bagger. .In the second O'Brien hit for two bases and scored on two outs. With two out in tlu- fifth Fox, Coulter and Kihm singled, Fog scoring. Three runs scored in the sixth. O'Brien led off with his third hit, and Smith fumbled Kuhns's attempted sacrifice. Heydon forced O'Brien and was forced by Willi. uns. Williams stole second and Hogrlever walked, tilling the bases. Fox's twobagger sent three men across the plate. In the seventh Kihm doubled and scored on Woodruff's single, Woodruff reaching third on Gllks's fumble and scoring on O'Brien's single, in the eighth a single by Fox, Coulter's triple, an error by Burns, singles by Woodruff and O'Brien, a pass to Kuhns and Heydon's single scored five runs. Toledo did not score until the seventh when one run crossed the plate on doubles by Turner and Graffius. Two scored In the ninth on a pass, two singles and an error. Score: Toledo.

The loss of a master key by a janitor in a large down-town office building the other day. while occasioning considerable unrest to its former custodian and the tenants of the building, nevertheless performed a useful service by acquainting many persons with the existence of this product of the locksmith's cunning. The master key Is an Ingenious invention which is the open se-

same often to hundreds of offices each with Its own peculiar look. Its possession by an unscrupulous person might give him an introduction to the secrets or possessions of e . ry office In the building. In the pre nt case every lock In the building la being changed, and a correspondingly large number of new keys notched. The work ot fitting out a huge building with keys and locks sometimes takes over a month before its successful completion, for locks, in particular, have aensitive natures, and are often put out of condition by petty disturbances. The task of manufacturing a master key or passkey is a delicate undertaking, and often is accomplished only after a number of composite wax Impressions have been made. The first part of the kvy to be inaerted haa no effect on the lock, but simply forces an entrance. The various cuts in the edge thtn feel their way until one responds to some gateway in the interior of the lock. It is easy to see how many combinations can be devised by a system of delicate cuttings on the key and of slight changes in the tightening or turning of the lock. WON THE REAPERS' STAKE

Minneapolis Tribune. There has been a most curious result of the first attempt to use water filtered by the extensive and costly beds that are being installed by the eity of Philadelphia. Only a few of these beds are finished; but the water from these was turned into the pipes that supply several populous suburbs a week or two ago. The change was hailed with ereat satisfaction as the duvnlnr nt a new era of health and comfort for the people of the city. The result astonishes physicians, sanitary engineers and filter experts alike. Th.-rc has been a ripid Increase of typhoid fever cases in the district served with the purified water, and there is something approaching an ep'demic of mild intestinal disturbance, especially among children. It will not do to jump to the conclusion that the system of filtration is a failure; but nearly all physicians agree that the increase of sickness is due to the change of water. The most charitable conclusion is that the systems of the Philadelphia suburbans have become so accustomed to water laden with inorganic mud and organic germs that the pure water makes them sick though this would not explain the cases of typi The more cofninog view is that the system of filtration practiced in Philadelphia, which Is the old Fnglish so-called slow sand method, does not remove germs of disease, though it does remove visible inorganic impurities.

There were three of them, one a German with twinkling, humorous eyes, and the other two Ingenuous looking young men. Three filled glasses with large white collars had been deposited on the table, when suddamtar the orchestra started up the stirring strains of "Di. W icht am Rhein.

You hear that tune out there? Well, you know It Is called by American 'The Watch on the Rhine.' and that isn't the name at all. The man that translated it from the German knew that the same German word meant both clock and watch. Now. that song really means 'The Clock on the Rhine,' refers to a big clock on the steeple at Bingen, you know.
