conscious by the blow, and although
physicians worked over him the entire
night, he did not: regain, consciousness

nothing serious will result from the

The Modern Steam ,.l Fire
Companies.

The steam fire engine of today has
apparently reached almost its limit in
power and capacity, 1t has taken
probably forty years to evolve this
perfect result. The steam engines of q
generation ago were capable of forcing
one stream greater distance than
Dhe hand engines, but their chief merit
consisted in the fact that they could
stay longer than hand power. They
have been improved from year to
year, until at the present time we
have what is considered by practical
men as the finest piece of mechanism,
in its class, now in existence.
To American invention entirely, the
glory of this high development is due.
The engine is practically perfect, and
could be operated by q boy ten years
old. Its capacity is from $50 gallons
to 1900 gallons of water per minute.
OF course an adequate supply of water
is necessary to force this number of
gallons. Such q supply we obtain when
taking water from hydrant which is
connected with q thirty inch 1Asin, or
one OF greater size, but whsn supply;
ing from less than twenty inch main
and when q number Of engines are
connected with the same main, the
engines will not receive sufficient
water for their best performance. The
steam fire engine of today will throw
q one and q half inch stream into a
window from eighty five to one huns
dred feet above the ground, using its
own hose and standing in front of the
building. If that power is applied to
steel three-inch stand pipe, it will
force water to point higher than any
of our tall buildings-thst is to say, in
the neighborhood of three hundred and
fifty feet.
To hold these streams in front of 9
building, pipe;holders are generally
used, consisting of along socket where
in the hose is strapped, with lever
reaching and resting on the ground.
With this aid, when the hose is charg-
ed, ore person can hold it with ease,
but in the old days it required q dozen
men to perform what can now easily
be done by child.-Hugh Bonner, In

some with spades and shovels, and
some with nothing better than piece
of ancient coffin and lidplateS, and
some with their naked hands. But al

there remained nothing for us but to re-
