To Close Stores at O'Clock.

closing becomes effective next week.
The selectmen of the town of Kill
lingly held a regular meeting Wednes-
day afternoon. Routine business was
transacted and the monthly bills were
ordered paid.
Fire Engine Did Excellent Work.
Tho
an excellent record of efficiency at the
fire in Wildwood park last Saturday
afternoon. The test given at that time
demonstrated beyond doubt that the
machine is one of the best of its size
In the state. The steamer worked
beautifully and showed what IT is ca
pable of doing when II is getting
sufficient water. A six inch suction
pipe was dropped into the lake and
with two streams on the water was
driven with such force as to REQUIRE
an extra man at the nozzles With
the door of the firebox open, the indi-
Gator held steadily at 100 pounds and
the engine ran along as smoothly as a
watch.
There have been times when the en-
CINE has been considered incapable of
pumDing water fast enough, but the
test of Saturday showed that the trou-
BILE is with the hydrants and not with
the machine. With two streams ON
the hydrant valves are so small that
the water cannot flow in sufficient vol
ume to meet the capacity of the pump.
There was much satisfaction among
the members Of the steamer company
at the demonstration of what the ma
chine is capable of doing with sufficient
water.
