Arthur Hartop, veterans of the service, died trapped behind steel sash on the sixth floor of the Hunt Flour Mills, Nightin- gale Avenue, for thé secotid time with- in recent years burned with a loss es- timated by Chief Charles Scott at $100,000. -, « Two others of Cecruby's command, Fireman Wight and Reg. Walters, al- most' overcome by dense palls of smoke and stifling gases, dragged themselyes through the high-tilting gection of one of the top floor win- dows, and with the last ounce of their strength stepped out for a 90-foot plunge to a life net that froze the blood in the veins of spectators. These men and four others went to Victoria Hospital with injuries more or less severe but all, according to to-night's report, will recover, Other Victims The other victims of the conflagra- tion which raged from nightfall till after midnight Saturday are: Harry West, both wrists sprained in holding the life net; Patrick Kirk, some in- halation, not dangerous; Alfred Lee- son, back sprained in fall from sixth to fifth floor; William Griffith, col- lapsed Sunday afternoon while visit- Ing his sick wife in Victoria Hospital. All are under treatment in Victoria Hospital. Assistant Chief Frank Tay- lor and Fireman George Geddes sus- tained knee cap injuries. The triple fatality came - before dawn this morning when a light coupe driven through dense fog into a head. on collision with a westbound Buffalo- Detroit bus brought death to Clarence Henderson, of 304 Cameron Avenue, Windsor, formerly of st Thomas, and his wifé formerly Josephine Rlenke of the Border Cities. Henderson's cousin, George Locke, also a former St. Thomas man, latterly living.in Pontiac and Detroit, was brought to Victoria Hospital with a fractured skull and died to-night. Trafic 'Officer George Law of Mel. bourne locked up the bus driver, Clar- ence Robinson, of Windsor, on a charge of causing grievous bodily harm and to-night lawyers were seek- ing to raise bail for his release. Inquest Ordered Arrangements night for the burial of Deputy Chief Scruby Tuesday afternoon, from Lo- gan's Funeral Home, cnd of Lieut, Hartop Wednesday afternoon from Evans' Burial Home. Both will be buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery and will be accorded civic honors and the honors of their own service and. the police department, To-night Dr. J. Cameron Wilson, at- ter a conference with Crown-Attorney 'A. M. Judd, ordered an inquest on Seruby to open at noon to-morrow. Alderman Frank Gray, chairman of the council's committee in charge of fire department affairs, is also anxious for a probe to ascertain if there were conditions unfavorable to the safety of the victims. "Where are the fire escapes?" Alder- man Gray asked as he viewed the ruins and bare walls and the windows to-day. "No fireman should be allowed to enter a mill fire such as that again in London," he said. Girl is Burned By Cold Water Cause of Injuries from Public Faucet Remains Mystery --Theories Advanced Ridgetown, March 4.--Verna Scafé, 16-year-old da ighter of Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Scafe of Ridgetown had her hand; severly burned in cold water on Saturday whea the attempted to wash them ir the iadies' rest room, Main Street. On her way to work, Miss Scafe fell on the ice, getting her hands dirty. She stopped-at the rest room to wash them. There 'is only a cold water faucet. Miss Scafe, it is understood, turned on th» water with her right 'hand and put both hands in the water. Screaming with pain, she turned off the water.and rushed to Dr. W. E, Take, hysterical; the backs of her hands, as well as palms, badly burned. The cause of the burn has remained a mvatery, The theory was advanced that the burn was due to the fact that an electrical apparatus was being used to thaw out fiozen water pipes in the immediate vicinity of the rest room. Iccal Hydro ofiicials are puzzled at © this theory since only 20 volts was] being used by the apparatus, the ordi- rary voltage being cut down by a transformer. However, the use of the apparatus has been discontinued until a thoriugh investigation has been made. A second theory has been ad- vanced that acid may have caused the Lurns, but the origin of the acid would also be a mystery To assume that there was acid in the Ridgetown water would be ridiculous, stated John W, Canipbell, superintendent of the Water 'Works Department Dr. W: E, Lake who waited on the girl stated that there waz no way to tell the type of. the burn.

Quebec Wives to be Allowed Their Own Savings Accounts Amendment to Bank Act Gives Married Women Unlimited 'Right of De- posit and With drawal Ottawa.--~Quebec women will get a measure of relief from restrictive legislation peculiar to 'that province in' the amendments to the bank act in- troduced in 'the louse of Commons recently. The law of Quebec provides that a married woman may not deposit -or withdraw money from a bank without her hugband's consent. The present Canadas Bank Act provides that wheré the position of manager of the Toronto such restrictive legislation is in force the deposits of married women must be limited to. $2,000. The amendment now. proposed will give the married women of Quebec un- limited right of deposit without the requirement of the husband's consent, so far as the chartered banks of Can- ada are concerned, - The solution, already tested in the|: The increased Interest in Grapho- Analysis, the science of character de- lineation * from handwriting, has brought {n its train not only a host of converts, but the Inevitable sceptic. One of the most frequent objections is posed by those who ask "How can handwriting show one's character, when we are taught how to write from the same copybook in school?" The answer to this objection only proves how strongly handwriting does show character. Because if you will study the writing of a single class of students who have learned writing from the same copybook, a few years afterwards, you will not find two who write alike. : Each one writes differently--a dif- ferent slant, a different pressure, and differing conformations of letters, This shows that, as one grows, one's character changes or strengthens, and one's handwriting changes too. : And, whilst I am discussing objec- tions, I would like to stress that it Is not possible to tell a person's age or sex from handwriting. Here and there, a trained grapho-analyst will be able to hazard a gtiess. There is no sclentific foundation. for it, however, and consequently, no reputable grapho- analyst will attempt it. I have seen women's writing that looked masculine, and, conversely, 1 have -examined the writing of men that looked for all the world like that of a woman. Then again, some young people write a mature hand, and on the other hand, I have seen the writ- ing of a man of 50 which seemed to be that of a youth in his teens, We can only get from handwriting what Is in it. There is increasing evidence that certain ailments can be discerned from handwriting. People suffering from heart trouble raflect this condi- tion in their writing. What Does Your Handwriting Show?
