GoLp HUI FrRe ALARM SioSALs.-At
the meeting of SuPerintendants and
Engineers OF mining works and mills in
and about Gold Hill, aud the officers Of
the Gold Hill Fire Department, held on
Saturday evening last, at the house of
Liberty Hose Co., No. |, for the purpose
OF establishing II series of concerted sig
nails to be sounded by the various steam
whistles in case Of an alarm Of FIRE, the
following rules and regulations were
adopted : First-The town Of Gold
Hill shall be divided into three Districts,
rs follows District First-To COM
meucc at the dividing line Of Gold hill
and Virginia, and extend to Pioneer
street. District Second-To commence
at Pioneer street and extend to the
Union scales. District Third-To COM
meuce at the Union scales and extend
to the lower line Of Gold Hill. Signals
for fire +: The Engineers giving the
alarm for ire will give five successive
pufrs through their whistles, then inn
media,ely after, will signal the District
the fire is in. in the following n /:
District First-Thcy will give = puff
near six seconds in length, after which
they will again give the signal for fire.
District Seeond-The same AS the First,
only two successive puffs OF about six
seconds each. District Third-The
same as the First and Second, oaly three
successive puffs, to signal the District.
We certainly hope never to see this ar
rangement OF signals called into requisi-
ton, yet should they be at any time,
we doubt not that they will be found
very effective and convenient. w. ID.

and regulations have been printed on
