Fire Brought to Firemen.

Il sometimes happens that the f1re
departments OF cities will go OUTSIDE
Of the city limits to stop a disastrous
confederation in an adjoining suburb
but rarely does it happen that clty
fire department will stop fire IN an
Adjoining county or state, and suil
more rarely does It happen that a nre
at anv place is brought to the nre'
men rather than the firemen going
TO the fire.
Vet this very thing happened in Au'
eusta Ca, a few days ago. One oi
the suburbs Of Augusta, just across
tho Savannah river in this state, is
HAMBURG, which was once flourish
ing town, but is now nothing more
than a reminder Of it's former great
ness about the only thing in the
place being few old warehouses ana
tho wards of the Southern railroad.
A car in the Southern's yards load
ed with cotton caught on fire and not
on1y seemed in a fair way to ourn
itself, but to destroy other trains OF
stuff about it. In order to stop the
blaze an engine was hitched to the
burning car and it was carried across
the river 10 Augusta.
A fire engine from the local de-
nartment met it at the foot or the
bridge and turned On stream which
soon extinguished the blaze. Inc
damage vas thus limited to about SSoO

Notes.

The second game of the double
header played at Winnipeg last Satur-
day between the Maroons and the To-
calls will be thrown out, the bylaws
of the league stating expressly that the
permission of the president of the
league shall be obtained before teams
can play double-header where one
has not been scheduled. Manager
Stanchfield has also protested the first
game which was pitched by Sessions,
on the ground that Sessions was SIM
ply loaned from the American asso-
citation for the Occasion-a transaction
that is not permissible The contest
was begun under protest, SO that it
would make no difference whether
Grand Forks won or not.
Good fielders are hard to procure
this late in the season, but Manager
Mcneil intends to strengthen this de-
department as soon as he can find the
men. McCarter and Kelley both per-
formed poorly in Tuesdays game,
neither making hit and each making
two errors.
The main feature of the game was
the roofing of Sam Handy and his
lieutenant, Jack Lang. One has lung
like Russian bear and the other bel
lows way up in the treble clef. The
crowd laughed more at the antics of
this pair than at the game itself.
Giencke. who has been holding down
right field. is scheduled to pitch for
the locals today. He is a south-paw
and it said to be good. He officiated
in the second Of the two Winnipeg
games, in which Grand Forks lost by
a score of to 4.
Bushelman, in the minds of some of
the fans, fielded his position miserably.
He made no errors, but might have
had at least two and possibly three
more assists to his credit, whereas the
scorers were forced to give the batters
hits.
