FIRE ECHOES.
Assistant Chief Engleby Talks
About the Engine.

Manager Rawn, Of the Gas and Water
Company, declined to discuss the attack
made upon the company when seen by a
TIMES reporter yesterday.
In reference to the attention Council
gave the fire department.. Assistant
Chief Engleby said that the engine was
cleaned after using and that it was in
| perfect order. ut was not used for
pumping at the electric light plant, clear
water only running through it," said
Mr.. Engleby. Tho department asked
the Council some time ago to mako ap-
preparation for paying the engineer, but
this was refused. Mr.. Hesser, the
driver, is paid $50 per month for the
duties OF janitor, driver and engineer,
and the department thought that he
should receive something extra for
running the engine. Messrs. Sander
son and Soule, who were appointed on
the examining board, said that they
didn't know anything about q fire en-
CINE and no action had been taken. 1t
requires much technical knowledge to
manage the engine and think Council
should provide an engineer. Mr.. Hes
ser is, believe, the best man for the
place in the city.
"When the engine has been used for
purposes other than fires charges have
been made and the proceeds placed in
the treasury OF the department. The
boys own their horses and large part of
the apparatus, and OF course think they
should have right to use it to make
few dollars when there is an oppor
tunity. The department. costs the 140
members at least IS each per year be-
sides the money that is raised by fairs
and in other ways"
Manager Wright, of the telephone
exchange, has discharged the night
operator who was asleep on duty the
night of the FIRE.
Messrs. Lunsford s. Sons, who are
the agents for the companies in which
the property destroyed was insured.
were misquoted in THE TIMES Wednes-
day morning. They will make no
Communications, but simply report
the facts to the companies interested.

ROANOKE, VA, OCTOBER 81, 1892.
THE DIOCESE OF ROANOKE.

The council OF the recently created
Episcopal diocese will be held in Lynch
burg November 20 for organization, as
outlined in another column. THE TIMES
presents the following facts for the
consideration of those who will compose
the council and settle the questions at
issue:
Roanoke is the geographical centre of
the new diocese.
Within 100 miles of Roanoke is found
thirds of the 9,7O0 communicates of
the new diocese.
Roanoke is the only railrond centre in
its territory. Itnow has practically four
roads, and within twelve months the
probabilities are that another great line,
the Chesapeake and Ohio, will be here.
The Baltimore and Ohio will follow.
And the connections with all the min
eral wealth of the great South west vir-
GINA. now already ample, will grow as
the country develops
The fourteen counties in which there
are now reported no Eplscopalians are
within easy access to this city.
The future growth OF the State of Vir-
ginta will be in this the great mining
center of the United States.
The diocese now set of with so many
counties, and length from east to
west of over $50 miles and width of
1875 miles, will eventually be divided
again. When the time for that division
occurs, Roanoke will be the residence
of the now western diocese. Now is the
time to M axe it such to avoid the con.
fusion and expense that would ensue in
a REIMBURSEMENT of the diocese. The
city now selected should be one that
would be proper location for the Epis.
copal residence of either OF the dioceses
when division again becomes necessary
and Roanoke is the only city of which
this may be said.
Roanoke will fur ish the land and
the residence commensurate with the
dignity OF the Office.
We recognize the value of having this
the Episcopal city of the great church
of tho Bishop OF the Diocese of Roa.
noke.
And Roanoke presents its claims
thus modestly to the clergymen and
1aity Of the new diocese and presses
upon them the Importance of selecting
the Magic City OF the Southwest to
name tho diocese and entertain its
bishop

mines be composed of home players,
strengthened by professionals, the
same as Salem's club was last year,
and good enough ball will be fur
nished to suit anybody. Ifanything
is to be done, now is the time. Have
enclosed grounds prepared and a
schedule arranged 50 that about ten
games a month can Ee played at
each place and the admittance re-
ceipts will cover expenses. Baseball
is our national game and everybody
enjoys it. Good ball is just as easy

it requires little more energy. Will

Mrs. Buckingham and her two
younger children came to Oregon
and Salem in 1856, the two elder, a
son who now lives in Kansas, and
Mrs. s. A. Clark having crossed the
plains in 1851. Mrs. Buckingham
was an earnest and efficient men,
ber of the Episcopal church and un-
selfishly labored for others during a
long life, doing much good in an
unpretending way. she remained
In good health until less than -four
years ago, when she lost her sight.
Having been great reader and In
defatigable worker, this loss de-
prived her of almost all resources
and she became entirely dependent
for interest In life upon the devoted
care and attention of her son, A. l..
Buckingham and his wife, who
sacrificed their own aims and OBJ
jects IN life TO care for the mother
who had been so much to them In
the past. Since her loss Of sight,
has occurred the death Of her two
gifted daughters who were heI
pride and source Of much comfort.
