Hose Company No. ?.

A new hose cart has been ordered by the Douglas City Fire Department and, when it arrives, a new company will be ready to take it in charge.
 At the regular meeting of the de- partment last Friday evening Chas. Fox, 1st assistant chief, was appointed to assist Martin Olson in organizing a hose team on Front street, to be known as Hose Company No. ?, Mir. Olson in talking uf the matter says that there are plenty of active men who are em- ployed on Front street who would make excellent firemen, and if given proper encouragement would no doubt volun- teer. So Mir. Olson and Chas. Fox were appointed to take the proper steps toward the organization of new com pany, and it is altogether probable that company No. 1 will have to wake up or it will be outclassed.

Branning, out of curiosity picked up
this RATHER, carried it TO the house
and placed It in box of cotton, and
was delighted to see it recover. When
the stage of convaIescence had passed,
the snake crawled about the yard,
and in a few weeks ventured into the
house, where it soon became pet. 1t

doorstep and prepare to strike. The
intruders invariably retreat.
One night last week Mr.. Branning
and his wife were suddenly awakened

had crawled upon the bed and gave
unmistakable evidence that something
was wrong. Mr.. Branning immediate

found a barrel of rubbish in flames,
