A strange story, with cooling and
refreshing features, is told by
Vinal Haven citizen, a man whose
"word is as good as his bond" On
the morning of July ID, he arose
early and at about O'clock he went
into his field to now The grass
was wet with dew and the air was
crisp and cool, but not cold enough
for the forming of ice or frost. He
had moved but few minutes
when he thought it best to whet the
scythe and to his surprise found it
covered by thin coat of ice for
about foot from the end where
the scythe is fastened on the snath.
He rubbed off the ice with his hand
and resumed work. After moving
for ten or fifteen minutes he found
the snath again coated. He remov-
ed the ice and proceeded with his
work and the third time the ice APP
peared. He can in no way account
for this, unless it was caused by
the rapid motion of the scythe as it
swung through the cool morning
air, causing rapid evaporation

Members Of the Fire and Water and Public Works Committees Of the city council. consisting or Mcssrs Henton. McGrath. Conway and Guthrie met Chief Ford and a few prominent representa- lives Of the Fire Department at the council chambers last evening. for the purposc of discussing the merits of the recent requests made on the council by Che Are fighters for additional supplies.
 Chief Ford started the ball rolling by describing the advantages that would accrue Co the department by the use ot Calaghan nozzles. siamcse connections etc.. and entered strong plea for fifteen hundred additional feet of hose.
 Councilman Henton made @ long speech i'm which he expressed his willingness Co assist the department in getting any old thing they wanted. but deplored the fact that the city was In debt and that money would have Co bc borrowed Co pay for thc parnphernalia. He then took eXcep- ton Go the manner in which Mr. CoburE had addressed the council at its last meet Ing. Afterwards a ripple of laughter went around the room when Mir. Coburn apol- ogized but in apologlzlng Coburn remark od that Co a certain extent hc was glad he used the language objected Co. as it apparently had galutary effect on the city solons. and awakened them Ca the fact that the department in its present condition was handicapped.
 Frank Payne made few remarks in which he stated that In his opinion it was necessary Co have more hose and if the council would not authorize the eX- pondlturc. the necessary money could be raised by subscription and that he was willing Co head the list with S2i.
 Chief Ford said that no subscription list would be circulated untl it was known that the council would not buy the supplies. and closed the meeting by telling the committee that the department expected the council to net ln the mat ter at their next session to be held toe morrow night.
