The FIRE BoYs' BLow-oUr. fire
boys at their blowout on Wednesday
night, kept up lively time until a late
hour, making speeches, singing songs,
and drinking toasss. Several maiden
speeches were made on that occasi on,
one OF which was noted particularly BY
those present. It began thusly: Mr..
President: (the President was seated on
beer keg with a spanner in his hand
to use as gaveD Hurrah for the Gen.
tsnnial firemen's election! Wrap me up
in the American flag, tuck me under the
eagle, tickle me with barley straw, pop
goes the weasel. These original remarks
were received with unboundsd applause
and ordinations of sand-paper your
hair. pull down your vest. " and
wipe of your chin" The speaker
was so overcome with emotion at the
gratifying reception of his maiden speech
that he sat down without being told to do
so. The boys stayed at the Hose House
until the lager run dry, and then ad-
journed after giving three cheers and q
tiger for the successful candidates.
SPUR WHEEL BRoKEN.-Ths spur
wheel Of the Raymond & Ely pumping
machinery was broken on Wednesday
afternoon whilst it was being turned for
the purpose of fitting new teeth in places
where they were broken out. In turn
Ing the wheel it was revolved too far.
causing break in portion of the
wheel. This is very unfortunate acct.
dent as it will take long time to get
new one cast to replace it, and until that
Is done the pump cannot be worked.
This entails the discharge of another lot
OF men for the present, and also the con-
nnued stoppage Of the Alps mill, without
other arrangements are made for supply
ing Is with water. Everything uniortu-
nate that can possibly happen to make
Tue camp dull is now taking place. This
spur wheel weighs over 20, 900 pounds.
