the artistic tones of gold, the tea
table being adorned by dark brown

HOMEMADE CHEMICAL
ENGINE IN USE HERE
Salvage of a Historic Locomobile
Furnishes Basis for an Excellent
Fire Fighting Apparatus

Cities as a rule make few good in
vestments but there is every indica-
ton that North Yakima, when it pur-
chased for fifty dollars the salvage
from the burned Schliesmeyer gar
age turned good deal. Connected
with the fire department is now a
homemade chemical motor engine
which could not be replaced for four
or five thousand dollars. A fifty
horsepower locomobile engine and
car frame which went with the
Schliesmeyer salvage form the basis
of the tool, expert mechanics in the
fire department furnished the skill,
the chemical equipment for the truck
was purcha sed, as were the tires. The
expenditure in all was less than
$1,000. Its result is a third motor We
hicle added to the city equipment and
now actually in use, at a cost equal
to about fourth of new factory
made apparatus of the type and
which in all probability would not be
as effective as that which was con-
structed here by the efforts of Cap
tain Carl Brown and J. c. Perkins
and High Privates G. A. Kinnaman,
Delmer DeFoe and Roscoe Clair.
Work of the Firemcn
Apart from the engine and frame
the entire work on the new chemical
was done here in the city in the
work shop of the fire department. The
result is a machine of such speed
and power that the fourth gear or

the other two machines in the service

pounds, is handy, has unlimited speed

its construction rendered the five
members of the department who
worked on it expert on automobile
matters. 1t will be remembered by

The two machines are tribute to
the character of the personnel of the

that new days have dawned in fire
department work. The coming of
the automobile has rendered necessa-

could curry horse, is no longer the
best man for the position That the
time in which the men are not actu-
ally on fire duty is put to good adj
| vantage is illustrated by the story
of the new chemical to say nothing
of the care and attention needed by
the alarm and water systems, and
the other detail work.

into the history of the engine which

would not be a matter of general

the Success Automobile company of
Los Angeles for a Mrs Henzeman of
that city. The car was a seven pas

The next morning after the Schlies-

T.. G. Dawson of this city, in making
his estimate of the loss, discovered
the condition of engine, transmission,
etc, and purchased the salvage on
the type II machine from the in
surance company for $50 and that of
the type T. for $25. The men in his
department did the balance and the
result can be seen on the streets of
the city any day now. In appear
