CHEMICAL ENGINE FOR WARD ONE
Other Changes Which May BE Brought
About In the Fire Department..

Ward one is determined to have its
combination chemical engine and ladder
truck this year The citizens of that
section Of the city believe that they are
entitled to this engine and claim that IL
Ia absolutely necessary that the chemical
engine should he placed on the top of
the hill just as soon as possible.
Tho cost OF combine lion chemical
and ladder truck including the purchase
of lot and the erection OF house, to-
gether with all the fittings necessary to
put such an engine into immediate SER
vice Will be IS, 900 or 81, 600 at the most.
This, the ward one people claim, Is a
small outlay and will save this amount
Of property n the course of few years.
The chief engineer of the fire department
recommends that such an engine be pur-
chased and the old committee on fire
department was very outspoken In re-
gard TO this matter.
A new Amoskeag engine for the CEN
trail part of the city Is also much needed
and will cost about $500. Engine
live will be placed in Deering If the
new Amoskeag is bought and new
engine houss built some where in the
centsr of the new district. Some of
the Deering hose houses need to be
altered and repaired and the entire
outlay for the fire department above
mentioned will not exceed $50, coo.
At present there are two vacancies
among the permanent men of the Port
land fire department and there are about
fifteen candidates for these places 1t Is
expected that one permanent man will
be placed in at least three of the eight
hoss houses in Dserlng and for these
places there is also a great scramble.
These positions are filled by the board
of engineers, the appointments being
confirmed by the committee on FIRE de-
partment,
Chief Eldridge and the board of engi
neers are now engaged in revising the
rules and regulations of the fire depart
ment. There is one rule in particular
which will be amended in some way. AT
present the ca ] men of the fire depart
ment are expected to report to their COM
panies either at the fire or at the engine
house as soon as an alarm is sounded.
For failure to report man is fined one
dollar. 1t would DE expecting to- much
of IA man to respond to alarms in the new
district and so the rule in regard to fires
will be modified to some extent
The permanent running card of the fire
department Will be made public in u
short time rs the chief engineer is now
working upon it.

Veterans Much Pleased at the Perform
ance Of the Portland Boys.

Saturday the Portland Athletic club
presented the prince of Polillo" at the
National Soldiers Home at Togus The
company had special car on the l2. 80
train TO Gardiner, and they made quick
connections with the narrow gauge
which sans between that city and the
Home There were about 90 in the COM
pany, ana % members Of the club went
along to see the first performance away
from home,
The old soldiers gave the boys warm
welcome and We'd with one another to
entertain the visitors in showing them
about their unique reservation.
The complete system OF management
of this military community of $500 veter-
ans was most interesting to the visitors
The hospital, the kitchen, the bakery, the
library and the canteen were visited, and
when the company prepared TO get into
their make up and costumes they found
q very tine, commod1ous and up-to-date
play house.
When the curtain went up at O'Clock
the boys faced an audience OF 1900 vets,
and in the boxes were many ladies from
Gardiner. The performance went off with
the same snap and dash that marked
the last performances in this city.
AT FIRST she applause came little hard,
but gradually as the first act progressed
the encoIes became frequent 1t WAS in
the second act, however. that the old boys
in blue were most enthusiastic. The
Spanish marksmanship' brought down
the house, the march of the spanish
soldiers was warmly encore1 as was the
ballet. Then cains the kids coon song
by Masters Quinn and Lows, and they wers
called back again and again. The clever
dance OF Mr. Barrows and MIR Warren
also made lit
IN t - the stage picture was
greatly ny the waving Of
small Amer ID Legs Ly the whole COM
pany, ard when the big silk banner was
brought TO the front the enthusiasm of
the veterans knew no bounds They
clapped, then stamped ana as the curtain
came down they stood up and cheered
again and again.
The company returned to Portland on
the Pullman.
Messrs. Emerson and Mcclellan are to
be congratulated on the splendid success
of their up-to-date show.
The Pukwaaa club entertained the
members and their friends while they
awaited the coming of the train at Gardi-
ner
There il talk of taking the opera TO
Lewiston in week or SO.

NAVAL RESERVES NAY oRGAEIzE

The passage of the act by the legisla'
ture adding battalion Of naval reserves
to the state militia greatly pleased many
of the young men Of Portland who are
interested in such an organization. 1t
is not expected that more thin two divi5-
ions of naval reserves will lee organized
in Maine for tn drs, year. One of these
will probably be located in Portl and and
the other in Bath These two divisions
will be made up almost exclusively OF
men who served in the auxiliary navy
during the late war. They Will probably
be partially equipped and begin work
before the summer is ended. If they ara
not successful IN bringing about prae-
tice cruise on regular man o'war this
year they will undoubtedly be in condi-
ton for such cruise in another year.
1t is barely possible that the two Maine
divisions il organized in time may take
u week cruise this year on the I. ;. :.
Prairie, which will reach this part Of the
coast on her tour Of duty with the naval
reserves Of the country sometime in o.
tober.

WANT A NEW BELL.

The residents of Dcering Centre have
commenced once again their elamor for
a bell at Deering Centre to be used 10
sound the fire alarms. The bell at Nor
rills corner is situated on small
church that is located on a lower eleVa-
ton and being surrounded by buildings
it is almost impossible to hear an alarm
at the centre. The bell at Hoodtords IS
also difficult to hear, being under the
hill.
A bell located atsDeering Centre, so the
citizens claim, could be heard for "a
greater distance. An effort was made
when the High school was built to hAvs
bell placed in the cupola, but the city
government quashed the idea on account
Of the expense that would lie incurred
strengthening the tower TO accommodate
