SALEM
TIE FIRE DEPARTMENT
Should be Fully Recognized
at Once.
ROANOKE TIMES BUREAU.


The ire at Powell's livery stable
Tuesday developed the fact that re-
organization in tho fire department is
needed.
at the outset, when the fire bell frs.
sounded the alarm, there was rush to
the engine house, and many persons in
no way connected with the fire company
seized the hose carts and rushed of
with them, and, as a result, the hose
broke near Yingling's house and coca
stoned delay OF twenty-five minutes
before water could be turned on, which
gave the flames time to make fearful
Roadway.
At the fire there was no one to COM
mand and every promiscuous order was
countermanded, and every real effort to
eXtinguish the flames was stopped in
the midst while an argument took
place as to whether it were being done
right.
At one time the hose was turned on
the part Of the stable given up for lost,
while Powoll's dwelling house was in
danger of igniting.
One efficient fire fighter seized the
anvil in the blacksmith shop adjoining
the stable and took it as far from the
fire as if it had been baby.
II the fire had broken out in the CEN
trail part of the town the loss might
have been immense. Salem ought tn
have a thoroughly organized fire depart
ment at once.

Its Curative Value Appreciated Evcn by

Even savaGes whose point-not of
civilization, but Of the want of it's
far below the boiling point, know the
assuaging and comforting power of hot
water. Long before America was trod-
den by other feet than theirs the va
rious hot springs had been frequcntcd
by the Indians for the cure of their ills
and ails; and it is they who have often
taught us the whereabouts of these Be-
thcsdas, and there are few more inter-
csting sights to-day than one of these
hot springs, where the steaming stream
gushcs from the mountain side, where
the sick and the lame arc brought on

with which Mcdea would have made
the old young again Those who make
use of such waters get to fancy that be-
yond the mere thermal benefit there is
q telluric or magnetic or planetary
force in them which makes them of
double efficacy. But for our own part,
heated though these waters DC 1T fires
born of the suns own sacred fire, we
doubt if the fire born of mans inrcnu-
ity, kindled by the spark struck from
his own brain, is not equally potent,
and if the water that is boiled at home

ordinary individual as that of these
up-gnshing supcrhcatcd springs. And
in the meantime we are sure that the
household is the healthicst and safest,
as well as the clcanliest and sweetest,
where there is always on hand a full
supply of hot water; although far bic it

legs were oil right, she started after
the unfortunate pig at lightning speed,
with fury In her eyes. and vengeance in

not long, and the Wild boar soon real
lied that no had exaspcrated o relcne-

the mule, coming up with him, eaught
him by tho backbone with his teeth,
crunched it and then threw him 10 the

DR.. Samuel Wakefield, of West New.
ton, is 80 years of age to-day. The old
gentleman actually looked as if he
would live as long as his fine sons, all
of whom were here to spend the day
with him. Mr.. Wakefield began his
active life as a teacher of English and
literature when he was but IS years of
age. Later he became an author and
gave to the world "IVakefeld's Theo-
logy," six volumes ofsacred music, one
of which is in German; work on the
Constructive Principles of the English
Language" and is now working on q
book of 600 sermons. He also enjoys the
distinction ofhaving built the first pipe
organ west of the Allegheny noun
tains.
In his time he has been preacher,
presiding elder, justice of the peace,
representative at Harrisburg and is now
the oldest superanruated minister in
the Pittsburg, conference, if not in
Pennsylvania. His children number
ten-fve sons and five daughters
are all livingland enjoying good health.
Mrs. Wakefield is Ss years Of age, ard,
though quite feeble, is able to be up.
DR.. Wakefield has always been
democrat and in 1925 voted for Andrew
Jackson-the year in which not one of
the four candidates obtained a majority,
and the house of representatives chose
John Quincy Adams. He was of age
when Monroe was elected to second
term, but lost his vote by his parents
removing to Mount Pleasant. His last
presidential vote was for Cleveland,
and in conversation he expressed the
hope thathe would be able to vote for
Cleveland again in 1892.
