A new FIRE ENGINE,
The City Has Decided to Pur-
chase a Chemical Engine.

AT meeting of the committees from
the fire department and city council
held in the city clerks Office on Mon
day evening, it was decided to pur-
chase chemical engine for use in the
fise department. 1t was deemed best
by the committees to procure a 55-gal-
Ion capacity engine of the firm of
Knott & Co. of Minneapolis. The en-
CINE will cost $500, should the depart
ment ind it necessary to purchase an
other within two years time, the Sec
ond engine will cost $500, making the
two machines cost $500.
After careful investigation in the
matter relative to the best engine for
the department, it was decided, as
stated, to procure the small size.
Three or four men can easily handle
the small engine, while it would re-
qaire about double the number to
manage the large size, and to do
effective work a chemical engine must
be first at the fire.
The engine will be here about the
18th. and AR. Guffin, the represent
alive of Knott &. Co.., will be here to
test the same. ? - = -
The fire boys are very much pleased
oyer the, new purchase, and it is safe
to say that the chemical will always be
first atsthe fire.
