Grand Trunk depot to shoot rats, and he was
on his way to the shed for that purpose at
the time of the accident, that she and her

not account satisfactorily for her fear to en-

ITEMS ABOUT STEAMBOATS,,
The Steamer Empress Sold to Mr.
Edward LantaIum.
The Blockade Runner Secret to Re-
main In Portland.

The steamer Empress was sold at auction
The Secret was bid in by the International
Steamship Company. This steamer is YES
sci with history. She is an iron, side-wheel
steamer, built on the Clyde, twenty-seven
years ago, for blockade running. The Secret
fully fills the regulation description of such
craft. She is long, low, so narrow that she
seems hardly larger than row boat when
compared to our steamers, is painted dull,
rusty black. and has scarcely any houses on
deck. She has two boilers and a powerful
engine of the crank-axle style. The paddle
wheels, though much smaller than those on
wooden vessels, stand out from the hull so
far as to give tremendous power and speed.
The Secret was quite active during the latter
part of The war, carrying contraband goods
from Nassau to Wilmington and Charleston,
At the close of hostilities she was sold to
parties in st. Johns. N. F., which port is
still her hailing place. although she has been
used by the International line for a number
of years in Provincial waters.
The steamer John Brooks, Capt. Charles
Deering, of the Boston. Mt. Desert and Ma
chias line. that has been running in opposi-
ton to other lines, resulting in war Of rates
between those lines, was taken off Tuesday.
This puts an end to the war and the old rates
have been restored.
The John Brooks has returned to Portland,
her charter having expired. She win go on
the route between Portland and Boston, Fri
day.

WHAT IT COSTS
To Call the City Fire Department
Out.
The False Alarm Of Yesterday Used
for an Illustration.

There has been great deal of talk about
town of the great expense to when the Guy
has been subjected by the long string OF
needless alarms of fire which have been CIV
en- since the first of last January. PRESS
reporter overheard some of 1t yesterday af-
ternoep. lust after the alarm sounded, and
with view of ascertaining the probable In
crease in the tax levy next year, he made
some investigations of the subject.
The alarm yesterday called out four en-
gines, four hose carriages, and two ladder
trucks, with their companies and the board
of engineers, making grand total of 90
men. Besides these. the other members of
the department were obliged to respond to
their company quarters to answer to their
names at roll-call. But the number of men
actually called to the fire was %. These 90
men. as well as the remainder of the depart
ment, are paid SO much per annum, no mat
ter whether there is one fire or one hundred.
This reduces the expense attending
the alarm to wear and tear of horses
and apparatus, and fuel consumed.
Four engines were fired up. AS SOON as they
reached the box, however, the fires were
dumped. no coal being used. The fuel used,
then, consisted of shavings and kindling
wood, saturated with kerosene. Shayings
are not quoted on the market, but kerosene
costs u cents gallon, while the finest grade
of kindling wood brings Sc cord. The
grade used in the fire engines is considerably
below that figure. The amount of wood
used was perhaps.fo the whole four engines,
five dozen sticks; of kerosene. perhaps a
quart; of shavings, a bushel basket full; SO
that the grand total would reach, perhaps,
the large sum of two dollars.
TO be sure every fireman who fails to
reach his engine house within half an hour
after the alarm is pulled In, forfeito dollar,
but that is hardly loss to the city. Taking,
therefore, the whole matter into considera-
ton, allowing for wear and tear, fuel and
electric energy wasted in striking the alarm,
it will be seen that a So bill will amply cover
everything, leaving some small change be-
hind. Setting this expense down against
the loss at some fires where delay has oc-
CURED in sounding the alarm. goodly bal
ance will be found in favor OF even needless
alarms once In while. AS certain dstin :
guished chief engineer has said: People
seem to forget that fire departments are for
the purpose of being called out"
