Tho Fire Apparatus.
Since the opening of the Kendall street
engine house quite change has taken
place in the Broad street station. When
the new hook and ladder truck u. II.
Andrew" was procured, it was placed in
the center OF the apparatus room which
crowded out the hose reel which was
placed on one side TO be run out diagonally.
This made rat her close work for the horses
when they came out to take their places.
Some of the apparatus including the
combination wagon was transferred To
the new station and now all that remains
in the Broad Street house is the "Craw-
ford" hose reel on the right -. II. An
drew" hook and ladder truck in the center
and the hose wagon "Pachc" on the left.
But four horses remain and the extra
stall has been taken out. One grey horse
is run on the hose reel, the big grey pair
on the truck and the old bay horse on the
hose wagon. Everything is in fine work
ing order in both houses and the people
have ample tire protection.
Police Protection.
To show how well or how poorly the
people of the Fire District are protected
by police, il may be stated that after
o'clock in the morning there is but one
officer OH duty in the entire district and
thnt is Officer McCabe, who Is located on
Central street.
The whole western district is left un-
guarded at time when it would be in
vlded by any person intending to break
the law.
Mystery.
What the committee TO divide the town
into voting districts has done still remains
n mystery. Whether there is to be seven,
five or no districts at all, no one knows,
the secret being kept firmly locked within
the breasts ofthc chosen few. Perhaps IL
is rs we'll, but when conclusion has been
arrived at, don't be rash, gentlemen;
break il easily. Let the intelligence be
given as gently as cometh the balmy
April showers in the springtimc. Per-
haps II will be received as ioyously as
nature receives the aforesaid, and perhaps
not Who knows?

Yesterday, Enoch Birch was found in
Bray's grove by Special Officer Beaudreau,

Intcresting Items
The funeral OF Josiah Marchant took
place this afternoon.
The new rooms of the John w. Davis
Club are nearly ready for occupancy.
Marriage intentions have been filed by

And now the business men of the west
ern district want an association, inde-
pendent OF the one already organized.
The bill for redistricting the town will
be presented TO the Legislature this ses-

with the usual majorities. That will be
the time when registration will show, So
much SO, that there will be no oustlng by
the courts.
