damage inflicted on the equipment of the
department. by the fire Of Feb. %.
Chief Henry Schaff, ST., reported that
1.-the fire department had on hand 1850 feet
of hose in good condition, but that this
supply was not sufficient, about 800 feet
more being needed at once, together with
4 MOBILES and S couplings. He stated that
some Of. the hose damaged in the fire
could be repaired, but that with the addi-
ton of this hose there would still not be
enough on hand to supply the various
companies, in view of the fact that as the;
Protective Hose Company. now Of Church
vile. contemplates removing into the hall
of the Italian society in Charles street, it.
is likely another company will shortly be
organized in Churchville.
