That TINS city il badly in need of
Il first-class fire alarm system, WAS
again forcibly demonstrated on Mon
day evening last. When the alarm
was given our people, particularly the
members of the Fire Department, did
not know IN what direction to run, be-
ing unable to locate the point from
which the alarm was given. Some ran
up town toward the spoke works, while
others ran down town in the direction
of the lower rubber mill. Others stood
still, not knowing which way to turn.
Had We good fire alarm system, the
alarm would be turned in at the box
nearest the fire, which in turn would
indicate at a central station and at the
fire houses, the district the fire was
IN.

was almost caused An entertainment
was being held in Hooker & Roberts
hall, when suddenly some one at the

supposing the hall was one fire.
Fortunately no one was injured
