MISCELLANEOUS. SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENTS. SCHOOL NO. 95, ADJOINING STABLES OWNED BY THEIR OLD DOG NELLIE THE CITY. to announce his appointees as soon as the government representatives are nnnied.

While members of th Madero family have not expressed themselves publicly, It Is generally understood they regard El Paso as the most convenient mooting place for the peace commissioners. The meeting place, however, probably will be announced simultaneously with the names of the commis Coward Slioe Wires to Associated Press All Will Unite to Further Progress of Nation.

Confidence In the successful outcome of these negotiations' marks the situation both In the insurrecto camp and in Juarez.

Even General Navarro, of martial mien and ferocious whiskers, is gentle as a lamb nowadays, according to reports from the Mexican city. The Federal commander, It Is said, has a smile and a cheery word for everyone, Including the once hated reporters. His cane swings Jauntily as he makes his Inspections and there Is a coin for each beggar who besets-his path. On odd moments he opens the prison gates to free some unfortunate, gen-errrily a harmless Individual whose misdirected from the Federal point of view, arouse official ire only a few days ago. Apparently the only ones disturbed by the present situation in this part of Mexico so lately the storm center are the Mormons at Colonia Dublan.

According to advices from Casas Grandes, most of the horses of Madero's army were left at that point when the insur-rectos adiunced on Juarez, and in their search for pasture many Mormon farms nae suffered. At least a thousand horses ara roaming In the vicinity of Casas Grandes, it Is declared. A rumor that the tnsurrectos Intend ed to disarm the Dublau and Juarez col- I onists caused a delegation ot Mormons I to wait upon the Insurrecto mayor of Casas Grandes, who assured them that 1 there was no probability or such act, 011. i If the insurrectos were hard pressed, he' said, they might buy arms and atumunt- Don from the colonists. This, the Mor mons replied, would be Impossible, as they bad none to sell.

Board of Trade's School Committee Legislative Committees Will Meet in Denounces Accommodations in the New York City Hall and Take Complaints to Authorities, xjp Gaynor and Hammond Grants. She Discovered Fire While Others Slept, and Saved 11 Thirty Lives, AROUSED COMMUNITY BY BARK Dog Saved by Firemen, and Can Now Have Anything the Eno Have to Give. Even the famed yellow pup, of which Eugene Field wrote Him all that noble band did aa deliverer hall; They tied a ribbon round his neck, another round nis tan- Had no such honors heaped upon him as feil to the lot of John Eno's long-haired dog, Nellie, at Bushwlck avenue and Welrfleld stret, to-day.

The entire neigh- orhood paid homage to Nellie. They hugged her and patted her and fed her lumps of sugar, Nellie began to think that the canine millennium bad come, and very nearly beat her tall off in her frantio efforts to show her appreciation. Nellie earned her keep for the rest of her life early to-day by bringing help when the house caught fire, thereby saving the lives of thirteen persons who lived on the upper floors. Nobody except the Knos had thought that Nellie was good for much up to to-day. She was old, decrepit adn could Just hobble around on her four apologies for legs.

But 00 and the children stuck to Nellie, and now they have been repaid in full measure. The building at Busbwick avenue and Welrfleld street Is owned by Henry Henko, who lives on the third floor. Eno, who has a grocery on the first floor, lives on the second wfth his wife and family. Ho locked up his grocery at 8 o'oloek last nlgbt, leaving Nellie and two cats asleep there. The house slumbered at 2:45 clock this morning, when a thin curl of smoke mounted slowly upward, to be followed by another and another, and then a ribbon ot red shot the cloud of white.

Still everybody slept. Not so Nellie. She sat up as quickly as her aged front legs would permit and sniffed inquiringly. Then she knew. All her life the Enos had made her comfortable and seen to It that she did not lack for bones.

Here was a chance to repay them, "Woof! Woof!" barked she. Nobody stirred. "Woof! Woof! Woofl'i" The sound carried to the ears of Henry Krewer of 142 Welrfleld street, who was passing. He Investigated and discovered the fire. Then ha turned in the alarm.

Meanwhile Nellie's chorus had routed out the neighbors and they gathered about the house. "John! John!" they cried under Eno's windows. The grocer awoke, sized up the situation at a glance and turned life saver. He took down the two children John, 11 j'ears old, and Dorothy, 12 and then started baek for bia wife Anna and her mother. Annie Kuech.

Rut the smoke barred his way he was driven into retreat; The two women, left to their own devices, scrambled out on a wooden awning, from which they were taken down on a ladder. Henke asisted his own family out. The Henkes consisted, besides ihe husband and the wife, of Henrietta, 7 years; Anna, 18; Freda, 16; Molly, 13 and Mamie, 10. The building was gutted. Nellie and the two cats were uot lert to perish.

The firemen forced their way into the store and took them out safe and sound. Do the Enos want to part with Nellie? Gucbs! MICHAEL DE LARGY NOT DEAD. Young Man Assures The Eagle That Report of His Death Was Entirely Premature. Michael De Largy called at the Eagle office to-day to say, in (ne winsome phraseology of Mark Twain on a similar occasion, that the reports that he is dead have been exaggerated. On the contrary, he is living at 329 Clinton street and working for tbe Tower Manufacturing Company, In Manhattan.

It was Da Largy's own father, a St. Louis man, who started the report that he was dead. In February he wrote a letter to Tho Eagle stating that his son, formerly a reporter on the St. Louis Star, had come east to seek work, and had dropped out of sight. One of young De Largy's friends, who had seen the story about the father's letter in The Eagle, met him to-day and informed him of the circumstances.

Y'" jttoie That Public School No. 95, at the cor ner of Neck Road and Van Slcklen street, in the old town of Gravesond, Is a and not fit to be used for school purposes is the contention of the Graves- end Board of Trade, the school committee the lack of sanitary conveniences.

The construction of a new building is being u-aitnl I The fire escape on the main building is a wooden stairway on the outside of the building. It Is enclosed in a strong wire neetlng, bo that in case of fire on its lower part the children on the top floor would have to go back Into the building In order to get to the ground. Another source of danger seen by the members of the Board of Trade are the stable, shacks and other outhouses that havo been allowed to remain on the land owned by the city. They are only a few feet away from the school buildings, all ot which are of wood, so that in case fire eliould start In the stables, where hay and straw are allowed to lie about the yards, the school might soon I be destroyed. The city has for some time owned the land between the school build-anc and Neck Road, and just hy it allows that ground to be used for stables and chicken houses' and other sheds is not clear to the members of the board of trade.

i i An even graver danger to the health of tU icnool rhlldrcD, according to tho re- port of the school committee, aro the ow' Dclng not lar "a cui.m,Bu iu nows me -oney jsianci creek, and there Is no sanitary eqtilp- "eni is inciting in tne school. In which triRre are pupils. The so-called port- Bc-Muui ciuusL iono story irarae buila-; Ings set directly on tho ground and heated by stovesi havo been nlaceri in the other about fifty feet away from a vault. Bcsldo one of the portablo "annexes" are stables, where horses are kept, and where hens and chickens scratch all day in tho bedding straw refuse. This year there are fifty children on part time, and all the part time children are Instructed In one of tho portable houses.

Thn air condition In tho main building, however, is also subjected to complaint. The achool was built about 1870, as a residence, and Is a two-story frame building. Originally there were two classes on each floor, with no place for the principal's office. Now those classrooms have been divided into two parts, each one being only about IS feet square. Nevertheless, the classes average about 25 in the upper grades and more in the lower ones.

The aisles are very narrow, making it very difficult to pass from one room to another, and since tne ceiling is very low, and without tilators, the atmosphere soon becomes dull and heavy. There are no dressing or retiring rooms lor either teachers or Pupils. An office for tho principal has been constructed over the stairway on the front aide of the building. It is only about IS feet long and loss than 7 feet wide. 1 Hero is barely room for a desk chair.

Teachers Have Lunch Table in Cellar Under Furnace Pines In tho cellar thera are two hot air furnaces, the flue pipes of both being at Inched to one chimney. Around tho cellar, against, the bare granite walls, the children hang their coals, boys and girls together, and dln-ctly under the two fur nace pipes the teachers have their lunc table. This is an old-fashioned cellar that had to be deepened to make loom tor the furnaces. In the report of the building committee of the Department of Education a short time ago, a recommendation for a new building, with 28 classrooms and an assembly room, was made. The recom mendation placed thirty-third on the ii KING CONGRATULATES PERRETung.0Oon5enl,sis, suffrage movement here: On Tuesday, I pita for This City of New York, or tor anr May 2.

Display of "Remarkable Pictures Shown at International Exhibition in Rome. A dispatch from Rome, Italy, says that King Victor Kmmanuel, on opening the international exhibition of photography at the Castle of Angelo yesterday, expressed great admiration for the 120 photographs made by Frank A. Perret.

Mr. Perret Is a Brooklyn man, and the the assistant director of the royal observatory of Mount Vesuvius. Mr. Per-ret's photographs illustrate different phases of the eruptions of Vesuvius, Ktna. Stromboli.

and other volcanic mountains, and of the Messina earth- quake. The King congratulated the Brooklyn man warmly and said the pho- tographs were the best he had ever seen. 1 While Perret was born In Hartford, he was educated in Brooklyn, and attended the Brooklyn Polytechnic Insti- tute. Then he entered Edison's labora- tory, and soon his naino was connected- with the Perret electric motor and the i Perret storage battery. Hard study and1 scientific work broke down his health.

He w-ent to Naples to recuperate. It was there he first became Interested in volcanoes. He has lived near them ever since, studying them nnd devoting his life to research connected with volcanic' phenomena. He has risked his life many times to take pictures of volcanoes in eruption, and has built up what Is prac a new sc ience, of which he is by all odds the leading exponent. During the last great, eruption of Vesuvius he stuck to his post and made observations coolly and calmly, and how lie escaped, death has never been understood.

Ferret has been previously decorated by the King of Italy for his bravery. ONE BILLION WILL SATISFY HIM Washington, April 25 A billion elollirt is the modest sum thai Albert R.
