The first days session Of Congress
was forty minutes long for the Senate,
the House sitting until after three. AS
soon, however, as Congress gets in fair
running order, we have no doubt that
both Houses will make the most of the
short session. The people look for it,
at all events.

FIRE ENGINES.
Last winter the Agent ofsthe "Chi-
cago Chemical Engine Co.. came here
with an engine to try. which the city
| promised to buy if it worked satistac-
torily. A log stable was purchased
| and filled with combustible material to
some height, and saturated with coal
oil &C., and the match applied, and
there was big fire; but, owing to the
inexperience of the agent. Mr.. j. b.
Sheldon. the house burned down. To-
day he came again. A building was
prepared again; a committee appoin-
ted to tell Mr.. Sheldon when to COM
mence playing the water. Everything
was in readiness and the building fired
1t was allowed to become thoroughly
fired from bottom to roof, and being
built of dry boards it burned rapidly
The word was given when but few. II
any one, thought it could be subdued,
and in eighteen seconds the flames
were completely eXtingnised. The
same was then repeated. 1t seemed to
work as if by magic. The universal
sentiments are-"well done'' ut is q
good thing" &c. 1t is probable the
council will purchase two engines
which under good organization will
insure us comparative safety from
| fires. More anon,

1t affords us pleasure to record the
success of the enter tainment given on
last Friday evening by the Firemen,
for the benefit of the Hook & Ladder Co,
The attendance was large and the per
formances interesting. Of course
there were defects in the rendition of
some of the parts. but it must be re-
membered that the performers are not
professional stage actors, but industri-
Gus, honorable laborers.
The music of the occasion, which
was furnished by Martins String
Band, received the commendation of
the audience.
The behavior of several fellows. in
the back part of the hall, was far from
commendable.

Much trouble because of Simi-
larity of Names.-A short time ago
Mr.. D. II. S. Williams. who resides a
short distance from town, had son re-
siding at Jeffersonville, Mich. and de-
string to avoid the expense of going
after him, made arrangements to have
him start for Upper Sandusky himself
in care of Conductors. Owing to SINH
larity of names, the boy was taken to
Sandusky and put off there. The boy
made known his situation to a police
man, who, however, was disposed to
regard the boy as probable runaway.
The boy finally succeeded in persua-
ding said policeman to 60 with him to
his trunk where he showed him letters
from his father, which convinced him
that the boy was in earnest. The boy
was then placed on train for this
placs where he arrived at o'clock last
Saturday morning, we believe. AS the
train on which the boy was expected
did not bring him, Mr.. Williams sent
numerous kilograms making inquiries
for his son, but no traces of him could
be found. He went to the Post office
but there was no letter imparting any
information as to the fate of the boy.
On the arrival of every passenger train
from the west, Mr.. Williams watched
for the coming of his boy with the
greatest anxiety till he almost dispaired
of ever seeing him again. Finally to
the great joy of the almost distracted
father the boy arrived as stated above
All of this trouble and anxiety was
caused by the similarity of the names
Of the two towns.
Indeed, almost daily mail matter for
Sandusky comes to this place, and mail
matter for this place goes to Sandusky
Such mistakes are also made in the
shipment of merchandise. Should not
this be avoided? A name is for conve
nience. Why not have one then that
don't breed serious blunders?
