mistook the flow of beer in the Brewery
for the city water works. His description
of the confiagration was as follows:
There was fire at Rock Island on
Thursday evening of last week, while we
happened to be in the city. The building
was frame house, near the depot. The
hose companies, three or four in number,
were over half an hour getting to the scene,
were another half an hour getting their
hose hltched to the hydrants, and then the
force of the water wasn't strong enough
to play upon the roof of the house, but
drizzled in impotent spray from the noz-
gels. All at once strong force was given
the water, whereupon the pipemen all held
their pipes so high that the water passed
clear over the building.
