FALSE ALARM

FALSE ALARM.-Two false alarms were
created last Saturday, both of which caused the
firemen long runs and no little annoyance. The
punishment for this offence, as laid down in the
city ordinances is entirely inadequate to its enor-
nifty, and should be so changed AS to require the
employment of the offender, when convicted in the
chain gang for period of time not less than six
months. If this were the law, and the people had
any assurance that it would be rigidly enforced.
We are fully convinced that many of those who Gre
ate alarms would be detected and punished.
