VALUE oFTHE WATER PAIL.
More Fires Put Out With " ne"

With all the improvements tli%V

| This day one of the most et1cleht
pieces of apparatus of this class Iiit'
has vet been in use. Insurance scaV-
istics. indeed, show that more llres
are nut out by water pals than by
all other appliances put together'
the only point that can well De
raised against them being that, whlle
they are generally provided abund-
antIv enough in places where they
are likely to be OF service 1he
water is very apt to be wanting. IL
is true, also, in n measure. that, even
If the pals were kept full, they are
often borrowed for some purpose
and not returned, so that when most
needed they are unavailable. AS
wav out of this difficulty it has been
nroposed, says Cassier' 5 Magazine, to
use pals with round or conical bot
toms, which will not stand on moor,
and are not, therefore, likely to be
taken off for some use for which they
we're not intended, but this form
seriously diminishes the value
of the pail as fire extln-
puisher, since a man with two OF them
in his hands, arriving at the scene OF
action, cannot use either without set
ting the other on the floor and losing
all its contents. AS an improvement
on this superintendent in one of the
large New England mills, who had
found it difficult to keep the fire pails
full and in good order, some time ago
adopted the following interesting eX-
pedient: The hooks carrying the
pals were fitted up with pieces bf
spring steel strong enough to lift fhe
pail when nearly empty, butt not
sufficiently so to lift full pail Just
over each spring, in such a position
to be out of the way of the handle OF
the pail, was set metal point con-
nected with a wire from an open cir
cult battery. So long as the pals
were full their weight, when hung on
their hooks, kept the springs down,
but as soon as one was removed or
lost considerable portion of its con-
tents by evaporation, the spring on
its hook would rise, coming in con-
tact with the metal point, thus clos
ing the battery circuit and ringing
bell in the managers office, at the
same time showing on an annunciator
where the trouble was. AS the bell
continued to ring until the weight OF
the delinquent pail was restored, it
was impossible to disregard the sum-
mons, and no more reason was found
to complain of the condition of the
fire buckets.
