The Pee We proposes a fine scheme for the
comparison of their lists with that Of the FREE

There is one trouble howeyer,-we have tried
the thing before; we have tried little of every
thing they wanted and We never found them
ready to come ''up to the scratch" but on the
contrary on each and every occasion sneak

time set apart for the game of ball to bc played
between nine fat men from Seneca and the same
number Of heavy weights Of MarscilleS. So uni
ycrsal and soul stirring was the excitement en-
gendcrcd thereby that strikes, Eastern wars,
high license, cows running at large, and other
commissions Of the hour were lost sight of and 50
we dispatched special reporter to the scene OF
physical difficulty with instructions to govern
himself with care and precision, and return a
vcr-bat.um report" The game was something
immensc-in solid mCat-consisting of one in

It is generally the opinion about town that the
new fire bell should be elevated more above the
roof of the building on which it i located, the
distance between the roof and the bell being too
slight for clear vibration Of sound, Another
thing which finds favor with the fire department
is that in striking fire alarms some indication
should be made of the location Of the fire. A
mode suggcsted for giving an alarm is to strike
a general alarm to be followed by 3 taps say for
Sd ward, another general alarm followed by >
taps and SO on for every ward. This mode of
striking, if adopted could be made successful,
and if determined upon could be carried out by
any member Of the department, and would not
in any way ncccssitatc the appointment of par
ticular bcl-ringcr All that is necessary is to
have an understanding on the subject.
