BACK FROM DETROIT.
The Fire Chiefs, National COnven-
ffnn

The Fire Chiefs National COnven-
Chief Hendricks is expected home from
Detroit tomorrow or Saturday Chief En-
gineer Snagg of Waterbury arrived home
Friday afternoon, his wife being i'll. He
brought back with him a curiosity which
is triumph of the taxidermist's skill. 1t
upright on a stump in the act of fishing.
The alligator has rod and line in it's claws
and on the hook is small bullfrog which
the alligator has presumably just caught
A second bullfrog is just about to thrust a
speer into the alligator's side. The figures
are surprisingly ifelike.
Chief Snagg speaks in the highest praise
of the reception given the delegates by the
Detroit citizens. Among many other at
tentions shown they were given steam
boat trip to Port Huron, sailing down
the Detroit river into Lake st. Clair,
through the ship canal and thence to
Port Huron. They were also
driven in carriages to all the principal
points of interest in Detroit and vicinity.
The convention had the largest attendance
of any since the association was organized
The full delegation from Connecticut at
tended every session. The various meet
ings, the chief says, were very instructive.
The delegates had chance to see the lat
est and most improved ideas in fire appar-
atus in the market Chemical engines,
aerial ladder trucks and portable ladders
were also on exhibition One of the most
interesting of the exhibits was the suit for
the purpose of enabling a fireman to go
through smoke without being suffocated
The exhibitors stayed for ten minutes in a
close room which was dense with smoke
without any inconvenience. The chief
thinks it is a valuable invention.
