It is settled that the hose house Of
the A. NJ. Spear Company will be
moved On the lot on Fremont street
known as the Allen lot. and this as
soon as the lowest price for moving it
can be obtained. BY most of the peO-
pie it was hoped to have it moved on
to the piece Of land a the top of
Brunswick hill, but the committee
which has it in charge, decided that
this was not as practical as the other
lot Its present site is the most desir-
able one on the hill but as the land has
been sold its moving is necessary.
The greatest Inconvenience will be in
the winter as this street quickly fills
with snow >9nd on some occasions the
quick reSronse Of this piece of appa-
ratus Is liable to be delayed.
