Dana's corner and back, distance about
three-quarters of a mile, So to first and So

HOSE RACE
At p. m. the Neshobe Hose company
and Molly Mcclure hose company ran
against time, starting near Davis corner,
they ran down Park street, attaching the
hose to the hydrant, and stringing 300 feet
of hose ard attaching the nozzle to it. The
time of the Nehobee company was one
minute and forty-seven seconds. That of
the Mollie Mc(iuires wa, one minute and
twenty-five seconds. The judges were L.
i. Burlington, ID. N Peck and S. +. Moul-
ton. The Mollies were company com
posed of former members of the Neshobee
and others, which was extemposrized foi
the occasion. Their hose cart weighed less
than half that of the Neshobee's and they
had but 100 feet of hose 80 that they we're
obliged to run the remaining distance, as
far as the Neshobee company, with an
empty cart. We understand the Neshobee
received $50 and the Molies had purse
of SO made up for them. The creased pig
for some reason or other was not let loose.
