PIscAToRIAL.-The trout season has
opened out. During the past ten days,
we have noticed any number of disciples
of Ike Walton arriving in town, with bas-
kets of trout holding from one dozen to
ten dozen of the ''speckled beauties.' If
there is any one section better than anoth-
er for trout-fshing, it is The Mountain.
Our streams are literally swarming with
trout, and, with proper protection in the
spawning season, the supply would exceed
any possible demand. April, May and
June are the proper months to angle for
trout, After the first of July, no line
should be thrown into stream which
they frequent.

ALMOST A FIRE.-On Sunday last, some
boys playing with box of matches sue
ceeded in setting fire to the stable of Mr..
Thomas w. Williams, in the West Ward.
The flames, however, were discovered and
extinguished before much damage was
done. So far, good. But suppose the
fire had gained SO much headway that it
could not have been mastered-what would
have been the result2 Why, probably a
halfdozen buildings would have been
burned down. The fact is, Ebensburg is
miserably deficient in her fire department
is almost entirely destitute of the ne c.
essary means for battling with the ''devour-
ing element" The machine we in court
esy call our "fre engine is mere squirt,
and is of about of much use at fire as a
threshing machine Some Of these days,
possibly, half Of our town will burn down,
and then there will be loud and earnest
call for such an engine as is demanded by
the wants of the town. Wouldn't it be to
the interest of the fire companies-say the
Cambria County Fire Insurance Co.-to
agitate the question of the purchase of
suitable engine? We throw out the sug-
gestion for what II is worth
