They took water from the lower hydrant
with an ex,en,ion of a thousand feet OF
hose. and threw a full stream from their
p;pe upon the Imperial Mill, Gold Hill
Foundry and adjoining buildings. The
bydrant and water pipes were much freer
from debris than when the Yellow Jacket
70. were out. This shows the advantage
of these trials. We understand it is the
intention Of both these Hose Companies
10 leave 200 feet each Of hose at the lower
par, OF the town, in case of any emergency
by fire. This, Of course, is with the con-
sent of our Board Of Trustees. who seem
disposed to grant all reasonable requests.
In this connection, can we say a word to
our friends at the lower part Of the town
without giving offence: It is this The
Hose Companies are perfectly willing 10

PRscArrIoS.-Our teamsters are ac-
cus,omed to leave their wagons standing
in Main street where the grade is very
steep, with nothing more than the "break"
attached. One OF these wagons, either
through the mischief Of party or parties,
or OF It's own accord-and Of this "depo-
nert saith nothing"-started down hill
and run into the platform in front Of
Tom. Finch's saloon. tearing up things
generally. Had il not been for the bank
of earth in front, serious damage would
have been done. Boys, take more pre-
cautions in staying your wagons-use
brakes, locks aud everything else in the
way Of securi,y-for if these things go on,
somebody's life may be sacrificed some
night.
