Tn all the varied list of curious causes | of fires perhaps the most absurd was the source of a conflagration that oc curred in Worcestershire. England, in 1902. The Worcester Insurance com pany decided to change its fire engine from a horse drawn vehicle to one op erated by a motor. The work was not quite completed when the company re reived warning of a fire which had : broken out on a farm at nearby Kemp sey village. However, the engine was , In sufficient running order to be sent on forthwith under the action of the newly installed motor. Unhappily the engine’s funnel had not been protected by a spark pro tector. Asa result the trail of the | snorting mechanism was embellished 1 with a gorgeous train of sparks. There in lay the cause of trouble. In a lane the fire engiue met a wagon loaded with straw, which it promptly set on fire. Unheeding. It hurried on its way and in its course presently ignited some stacks which bordered on the road. It still pushed on relentlessly, however, and came to a standstill only when the water tube of the motor burst. It was still some hundreds of yards from Its destination, and there It remained lngloriously helpless while the fire at the farm burned itself out. —Boston Post. Ant* and the Weather. “When you go out on a cloudy morn ing and tind the ants busily engaged in clearing out their nests and dragging the sand and bits of earth to the sur face, you may be sure that, no matter how cloudy it is, there will be no rain that day. and the probabilities are for several days of good weather,” says a gardener. “On the other hand, if you see the ants about the middle of a spring or summer afternoon hurrying back to the nest and a sentinel out trotting round in every direction looking up stragglers and urging them to go home ns soon as they can get there you may figure on a rain that afternoon or night. When the last of the wander el's is found the picket hurries in. and the nest is securely sealed from inside to keep out the water very seldom that ants are surprise by the approach of i sin wer, but once in awhile when belated or too far away to get home in time they mount a shrub and ensconce them selves under the thickest, broadest leaf they can find, aud there they stay and hold on until the rain is over. When an ants’ nest is washed out and the ants drown an examination will always , show that the disaster was due not so . much to lack of preparation as to acei- j dent, a stream from an unexpected di rection flowing down between two j bricks or a downpour that caused a fail or the washing away of the bank in which the nest was placed.” Dangerous Ground. “Bless me, Marlhy!’’ exclaimed Un cle Cyrus, looking up from his maga zine, says the Youth’s Companion. “We’re getting a navy that don’t ueed to take a back seat for any of them Kurojieau nations. - ’ Aunt Martha con tinued placidly measuring out the in gredients of “mountain’’ cake and manifestly was not unduly excited over naval affairs. “Just listen to this. Some fellow has been making estimates. Any half doz en of our big cruisers have engine strength equal to the pulling power of all the horses in the Russian cavalry!
