Such a thing had not been heard of on Ellis Island for many years. Losses of money have been reported time and again l'y the immigrants but It has seldom been recovered.

We, therefore, considered of the greatest importance that all those who take an Interest In this matter and those who have founded and worked popular baths, should compare notes about the best manner of arranging and working similar establishments, and about the results obtained." Hence the conference in August.

Delegates from municipalities the world over are being Invited. Baths and bathing will be discussed from the viewpoint of the school, factory, army and the social problem, and there will be models, drawings and plans to make up a bath exhibit at The Hague.

Patrolman John Collins directed that an alarm be turned In. In less than twelve minutes the whole of the interior was ablaze from top to bottom. The Brownsville Engine Company made record time in getting to the fire, but the chunks of ice came from the hydrants into the hose, impeding the stream. Then the hose burst in places and tiny streams of water forced upward froze immediately upon coming In contact with the air, quickly causing a long series of upright icicles, something that the firemen say they never saw before. The ice in the hose and the leaky condition of the latter seriously handicapped the work of the firemeu.

yesterday afternoon began a course of bIx Brooklyn Institute lectures on "Masters of Medieval Thought," In lecture hall, Academy of Music. This Is Professor Turner's second Brooklyn Institute course, he having been here last season, speaking then on Aristotle. Yesterday St. Augustine was his topic, and he said that the philosophy of St. Augustine, In general, was Platonlsm, that he was led to this way of thinking by a certain quality ot spirit, that he was born a Platonist and lived in an atmosphere of it, Platonlsm being then contrasted with the Aristotelian way of thought which is that of science, beginning with fact and proceeding to law, "the one seeing the beauty of truth, and the other the truth of beauty," was Professor Turner's summation of the difference.
