YESTERDAYS FIRE.
Dangerous and Hard One to Figh. But Damage
Is Small

There was an alarm of fire from box
as, at O'Clock. yesterday. The blaze
was in the hosting engine house at the
coal shed on the east side of the upper
end of the Maine Central yard. Il had
evidently caught about the boiler and
was blazing briskly when the firemen
arrived. Two lines Of hose were strung
from q hydrant on College avenue
near the old brick school house down
through to and across the yard. This
was a difficult job and took consdera-
Bile time. The hose being across the
electric car tracks. transfer was nee
essary. and all traffic in the yard had
to be suspended. as the lines went di-
rectiy across the tracks and between
the cars
The fire, although a small one. was
dangerous and hard to fight. A large
donkey engine is used for hosting the
coal for the engines from the coal shed
and there was considerable danger of
the boiler exploding. For this reason
the firemen had to keep at a safe dis
lance for a time. and fight the flames
from there as best they could. The

great chances. however. and gradually
worked nearer until they were within

injury. There was good fire in under
the boiler and all around it, while es-

Both men took chances. for it was not
known in what condition the boiler
was, and it was expected to. blow up
almost any minute. II was a nasty
situation for all concerned. but happily
came out all right.
AS soon as the firemen could get near
enough they soon drowned out the
flames and prevented them from
spreading to the coal shed which was
separated from the hosting house by
one track. For once the firemen We're
not bothered much by spectators for

INTERESTING RELICS.
Bis Of the History Of Curiosities in Edwin
Towne's Collection.

Edwin ToWne. who was formerly III
the grocery business here in the city
takes Il great interest in relics of all
kinds and after being on the lookout
for them for years now has q fine
collection. Among them is a finely
carved powder horn which is some %
years old and has an interesting his
tory. Mr.. Towne's father when Il
small boy had desire for a powder
horn so went one day to the tannery
near his home and procured a small
horn for this purpose. When he re-
turned home with his prize he found
one of the neighbors there hiding
from an officer who had warrant
for his arrest for debt. The man had
been lodging about among the neigh
bors keeping out of the way Of the
officer. He asked the boy what he
was going to do with the horn and was
told. We'll, sonny" he replied. the
next time you go over to the tannery
you tell Jim Ghe proprietary that you
want the largest white horn he has IN
the mill and bring it to me and I'll
make you horn that is horn" and
even while he was saying this he kept
Il sharp watch for the officer. The
boy was not going to lose a chance
like this so he hied him back to the
tannery at once and got the biggest
horn he could find. When it was re-
turned to him it was finely finished
and carved with patriotic legends such
as George Washington was a great
and good man and the boys name
and date. The boy priced the horn
very highly and always kept it until
he became an old man and then gave
il to his son Edwin who now has it.
All this happened nearly 100 years
ago.
Many of the relics in Mr.. Towne's
collection have a local interest. Among
these is sort of hand bill with bit
of prose and a long poem which was
among those distributed through this
section during the Aroostook war. The
poem relates to three brave men o.
Winthrop who were very warlike while
the war over the boundary question
was being discussed but who later
ran away and hid in a cave in Albion
to escape the draft. The poem is We'll
written and very bright, much bette
tFan the usual run OF such literary eff
forts.
Another relic of the same kind is
one of the original poems which was
written at the time of the famous
Cooliidge murder in Waterville. DIR.

the old brick block nov occupied by
the Grondin store and the murder WAS
committed there.
Mir. Towne also has a choice collec-
ton of old coins and pieces of money.
One that is specially interesting to
WateEvillc is a 50 bill on the old State
bank. the Exchange of Portland. This
has two small holes punched in il and
between them the word "counterfit"
written in ink. This bill was secured
by Mr.. TONNES father and has an in
teresting story. There was once q
livery stable in the city which had n
long platform going into the main
entrance. One day many years ago :,
cat was heard moaning and crying un-
