TO QUENCH FIRE BY DELUGE.
THE NEW WATER TOWERS TEST
PROVES ITS USEFULNESS.

The Apparatus 10 BE Used For Pour
Ing Water Into the Upper Stories
of Burning BuIIdings-FIreman
TOschach TO Apply For "A Patent
For His InventiOn-The Apparatus
Valuable Addition to the De-
partment.
The new water tower OF the fire depart
ment was tested yesterday morning at
o'clock at Bay and Habersham streets. Inc
test was thoroughly satisfactory, water
being thrown from the tower from the
middle Of Bay street to the Factors walk,
rs or 80 feet distant. The tower is a new
device entirely and as it was uncertain
how it would work out no announcement
was made OF the test.
After the Collat fire on Broughton
street." said Chief Mcguire, I'VE realized
the need OF a water tower for throwing a
heavy stream of water into the top floors
Of burning buildings. These water towers
are expensive affairs and the commission
ers did not feel warranted in investing In
ore just at this. time. The idea
occurred to Foreman Toshach of
the aerial truck that the deluge set
might be made use of by device for rig
ging II up on the ladder of the truck. He
discussed the matter with me and after
talking 1t over told him to go ahead and
see what he could do. The result is that
he has perfected an appliance by means of
which the deluge can be affixed to the top
OF the ladder and operated from the
ground. By this means the deluge can be
run up to a hight of forty-five to ffty-five
feet, and a two-inch stream of water
thrown into the top stories of buildings.
Two engines can be attached to the hose
II desired, and a perfect torrent of water
thrown. The device is something new, we
believe, and Mr.. Toshach has filed a ca
veat for letters of patent"
Mr.. Toshach exhibited the device to a
Morning News reporter and explained its
workings, 1t is very simple. consisting of
a metal brace to be affixed to the top
most round of the ladder of
the aerial truck, by means of which the
deluge nozzle and hose is held in posi-
ton 1t is so adjusted that the angle OF
the streams as well as the direction of
the nozzle can be controlled from the
ground. 1t has been found heretofore
practically impossible for fireman to con
troll the heavy deluge nozzle on the lad
der. By this device the ladder is relieved
OF the weight of the fireman and the del
uge is controlled from the ground The
idea appears to be practicable and there
seems to be no reason why the device
should not work successfully.

Moses spann's Hard Time Proving
His InnOcense of Bird stealing.

Moses spann's Hard Time Proving
His Innocence of Bird stealing.
Moses Spann was before Justice Wick
ham yesterday@to prove that it was a case
OF mistaken identity under which he was
arrested it having been alleged by Zelda
Cohees that he had stolen her bird cage.
Moses proved his innocence to her and
to the justice, and he departed, to re-
sumo his unlawful vocation Of trapping
knocking birds.
One Of the negroes engaged in this bust
ness had sold Zelda Cohees two of the
song birds some days ago. but both Of
them had died. During the short-lived
captivity they had suffered, however, she
had received a present Of a large
and handsome cage from friend,
and the sight Of its vacancy
cred occupant. Consequently when the
negro from whom she made the purchase,
and whom she judged TO be Moses, appear
ed, she said abe wanted another bird.
The trapper readily promised to procure
her ore. and that the captive might enjoy
the additional chances of life that a
roomy cage affords, he took it along. tell
Ing Zeoa ne WOulu return IL WIN Il sung
ster enclosed.
Zelda thinks he has had the cage long
enough and believes the process, for
which the market price of trapped mock
ing birds is quoted at, the low figure of IL
cents, to be necessarily simple and thai
no such requirement as a weeks time
figures in the capture.
Efforts will be made to secure the negro
that has the cage, and 1t Is hoped that
n addiffOF n the nfIDiC n.
ment he receives for the theft of the cage
he will also be made an example of fol-
trapping song birds, against which there
Is q special statute.
