FIRE ALARM KEYS.
New Glass Cases Provided Tint Will BE
of Benefit.

New Glass Cases Provided That Will he
of Benefit.
Chief Mentrum has placed on all the
fire boxes the convenient glass key cases
which he started some weeks ago to
place in position. Exception is made to
those boxes at the foundry and at
Mainville, where. the chief says, it is
as well to let the keys remains where
they are. The glass key case. II Is con-
sidered, will prove a decided success,
as they will undoubtedly be a great on
venience in cases of ard do
away with confusion in looking about
for keys when alarms are sent in.
Heretofore the keys to the fire alarm
boxes have been kept at the residence
or business house nearest the box. In
cas- of fire at night the d~iscoverer Of the
blazes was compelled to spend some
time in arousing the inmates. after
which there would be much more con-
fusion in trying to find the key which
had all probability been mislaid. All
result the fire often gained considerable
Roadway before the alarm was turned
in.
Under the present system, when a
person discovers a fire. all that is neces-
sary to be done is to go to the the
alarm box. break the glass with a stone
or pocket knife and pull the box. The
time that IL will take to do this will be
inconsiderable and the new system may
result in The saving of a great deal OF
valuable property some of these days.
The department has also been equipped
with a telephone and persons may now
phone" the fire station at any hour of
the day or night.

at the time to give the desired data,
referred the gentleman to Printers Ink.

the benefit of newspapers.
The following correspondence then
passed between the gentleman at Ham,
ilton and Printers Ink. which explains
itself. and is interesting in that it gives
certain facts and figures not generally

before yesterday to see some men who
are working on one Of the tribrtari 's
OF the creek about 10 miles from this
city, and returned yesterday. The trip
was made without incident, unt.. Mr..
Anderson started to go up an uroruken
trail in the mountains. His morse was
unable to proceed in the deep snow. He
tied ii to a tree and started afoot to-
wards the cabin, his destination, about
a mile distant. He ploughed through
five feet deep and the last 100
yards he fioundered in snow tina was
in places over his head. He crawlei,
or as he expressed it, swan to the
cabin. The snow was soft as down and
the heat had not affected it to the ex-
tent of packing it in the least. Mr..
Anderson says that the men up there
report h last snowfall heavier than
