taken from the house to Irusss wharf
to test the new hose. 1t was drawn by
two spirited animals belonging TO *. II.
Watts. the horses being driven by Joseph
Williams, cOlOred. When Harmony and
Second street were reacher, one of the
horses wanted to go up that thorough
fare. Williams lost control of the ami

stranded upon the pavement. The test
was failure as the feed pipe would not
work. Another attempt will be made
about Wednesday.
A wagon belonging to A. r. Kee,
