PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE.
An Enthusiastic Meeting Held by the
Citizens

Special to the Kennebec Journal
LIvERMoRE FALLS. April l2.
very enthusiastic meeting was held by
the citizens in G. A. K. hall last evening to
take action in regard to some mode of fire
protection. Interesting remarks we're made
by c. X. Loring, K. c. Boothby W. S.
Treat and many other prominent business
men in town. 1t was found that the citizens
were unanimous for hand fire engine, hose
and carriage; also the putting in of hydrants
throughout the village.
committee consisting of c. X. Loring,
Geo. Chandler, and Albert Allen were cho-
sen to investigate the matter and
furnish an estimate as to expense. Ii
was also voted TO choose a committee to pc
ttion the selectmen to call special town
meeting one week from Saturday at o'clock
Z. NJ, to hear the report of the committee
and to see what action the town will take in
the matter. The meeting adjourned to the
call of the committee.

The meeting then adjourned.

The police station now looks as If the age
of improvement had reached it and had come
to stay. The interior has been cleaned and
painted. The water closet has been removed
to suitable place in the rear. The cells
have been wbitewashed and the rum and bed
bug odors are things of the past. The table
has been newly covered and vanished and 10
hardly recognizable. It has been
parted off with seat railing, making suit
able place for holding court when necessary.
This much needed renovation has cost but
little under the supervision of Marshal Morse
and reflects great credit on those who have
had the matter in charge.

are entitled to all information Of interest
with respect to our progress. Last years
business was so far beyond any previous

partment, which now occupies one entire
floor and part Of another; wehave doubled
the space allotted TO chinaware, carpets
and clothing--these three departments
are growing beyond our most sanguine ex-
