The New HosE.-Yellow Jacket Com

The New HosE.-Yellow Jacket Com,
pany No. 2 yesterday afternoon gave theii
thousand feet of new hose a thorough
testing, and found it to be of the bes,
quality. 1t is strong double-riveted Cali.
fornia leather 3-inch hose, manufactured
by Capt. NJ. NJ. Cook, of San Francisco.
The Captain himself was present yester-
day to see the trial made, and no doubt
took great pride in seeing his work give
such complete satisfaction. After testing
its qualities for strength, the boys attached
a divider to the plug, and put on two
pieces of hose. With two streams from
the plug opposite the News Office. which
is supplied by only a 3-lnch pipe, they
threw the distance of los feet from the
plug. Near the San Francisco restau-
rant, where the pipe is five inches in di-
ameter, they threw two streams 1876 feet
from seven-eighths of an inch nozzles.
That, they considered, was doing we'll
enough for the first trial. The boys
wouldn't like TO have a fire break out now.
Oh, no

OLD BuMMER.-The old crooked-legged
dog, who was a great favorite with many
persons in the vicinity of Taylor and c
streets, Virginia, for several years past,

mer," this morning passed in his checks,
and nov sleeps his long sleep-some in

regret his death.
