Continued From Page One.)
First Headquarters.

Protection Engine Company No. 3's
first quarters were located on lot
near the Kuhbach home on Court
street, and later an engine house was
erected on Main street a little south
of the present quarters.
The Barker pump was not sufii-
cient to fight fires and it was re-
placed by other hand engines and
finally by the steam engines. At this
time several of the boys dropped out
of active service.
Charter and Surviving Members.
The original charter, dated Sept.
19, 1858, bearing the names of
Messrs. Penniman, Foster, Conger
and others has since been lost. For
many years it was the prize of the
company's property, but in some un-
accountable manner it was disturbed
from its moorings and today cannot
be found, much to the regret OF the
company.
Company Incorporated.
Protection Engine Company No.
was incorporated February 3, 1863
The company has passed through sew.
eral vicissitudes since then and al
one time its membership consisted ot
only six faithful fire fighters. After
the purchase of the rotary steam en-
gine by the town council the mem
bership began to increase and has
grown continually until now the
Honesdale fire equipment is equa
to any volunteer company in thi:
part of the state.
Only One Life Lost.
The company has fought some
hard and stubborn fires without tn,
loss of a member until the Ref fire
on January IA, this year, when ont
of the most active and faithful fire
! fighters, George j. Bergman, los
his life.

gated 16S million dollars. having more

The increase in imports from Cuba
during the decade has occurred chief
ly i'm sugar and leaf tobacco though
in the case of sugar shortage in
the crop of last year caused ma
terial decline in the imports when
compared with the Immediately pre-
ceding year. In 1910 sugar from Cuba
totaled 1878 million pounds with a
value of over 100 million dollars; in
1911, about 1892 million pounds val
ued at little over 80 million dollars;
in 1908. just prior To the reciprocity
period, the total was 1894 million
pounds. valued at 37a million dollars.
Leaf tobacco other than that used for
cigar wrappers shows steady growth.

JOY RIDE Of
FOUR MONTHS
Travellers From Providence
Have Covered $500 Miles
in an Auto and Have
Fallen in Love With
Western People

The feature of our journey has
been our realization of western hos
pitality and its sincerity. Though
the delightful climate and the won
derful resources apparent on every
hand have had their influence, it is
the kindly manner in which we have
been treated by whoever we met in
times Of embarrassment that has
almost decided us to dispose Of our
eastern interests and move to some
attractive point in the southwest 10

and have a prosperous hardware
and plumbing business in Providence
that has been established for -
years and there is no occasion for
our moving west. except that We
like it, He has made a trip through
the west and now myself and wife
are devoting a year To similar
tour What we shall do on our re-
turn is yet undecided"
The speaker was Albert Hams
worth a city councilman of Prov
idence r l.. until last year
when he refused longer to serve his
stituency having tired of the polit
ical game. and having heard the call
of the west. Feeling the need of
change Of scene and regarding his
40 h. D. autocar the best thing on
wheels. and himself the master OF
it after four years Of intimate ac-
cuaintance with it, he planned
tour worth while. EquippinS his car
for camping and travel purposes by
placing the front seat on hinges and
building top that enables an easy
charge from Il touring car To "A
bedroom and loading up with all
the needfuls. among which of course,
was Mrs. Hainsworth, they started
last October for the Sunset Sea.
The car weighs 400 pounds. loaded
and Mr. Hainsworth says all who
have seen it declare it the best rugged
outfit for the purpose. ever devised.
They have now covered $500 miles
and the front tires are still inflated
with Rhode Island wind as they have
never been pumped since rolling
away from the home garage. But
it has not all been easy sailing, Mr..
Hainsworth says he has not in years
done so much genuine manual labor
as since he undertook this trip but
he has enjoyed il immensely all the
time They have had some irritat-
ing accidents but nothing discourag-
ing. They have broken two aXles
and carry an extra one with them
against an emergency These in
ciderts more than anything else have
developed the high regard of the

are but representative of the growth

in 1908 had not. in some cases. at

rant their separate enumeration in
the monthly summary by the Bureau
Of Statistics.
Not only is the United States in
creasing it's trade with Cuba but it
is supplying a larger share of the
commerce of that island than ever
before In the calendar year 1910.
according to the official figures OF
that island. the United States supplied
80 per cent of the imports. COM
pared with ass per cent i'm 1900. and
Ala per cent in 1908. the year i'm
mediately preceding reciprocity: and
of the exports from Cuba in 1910 SIS
per cent were sent to the United
States. as against 6S per cent i'm 1900
and 77.9 per cent in 1909. Meantime
both Spain and the United Kingdom
have lost in the share which they
supply Of the imports into Cuba and
are also taking a smaller share Of the
exports from that island. of the to-
tai imports into Cuba, the share of the
United Kingdom was. in 1900. 49, per
cent in 1908. 16.1 per cent, in 1910.
11.9 per cent: Spain. i'm 1900. 14.6 per
cent: i'm 1908. 1913 per cent. in 1910.

i'm 1910. to Spain. IL per cent in 1900,
10 per cent in 1908, and % per cent
in 1910: to Germany. 11.3 per cent
in 900. 6.S per cent in 1903. and "a
per cent in 1910; and t. France. 90
per cent in 1900. Is per cent in 1905.
and 1 per cent in 1910. From the
foregoing it would appear that every
leading country except the United
States had in 1910 a smaller part in
the foreign trade of Cuba than in
1900. while during the same period
marked increase occurred both in the
share which we supplied of the total
imports into. and share which we
took of the exports from Cuba.

travellers for western hospitality FOR
in every case they have folnd who
ever they met regardless Of race col
"r or station, universally kind and
obliginG.
one incident of many will serve to
illustrate. As they wheeled into Fort
Apache with broken idler shaft
they met Capt. John O'Shea of the
POST, Of whom they had never heard
before. He took them into his own
home. told them to stay there until
tho machine was thoroughly repaired
ana directed that il be taken TO the
blacksmith shop at the post for
that purpose. He told the travellers
he knew the road they would cncoun-
ter after leaving and would not per-
nit them Ia start until they were
prepared for it. II vas the same
sort of hospitality that they enjoyed
al the way through the west
Their route of travel was through
Buffalo and Chicago to Omaha. From
there they took practically tine line
mapped for the transcontinental road,
down the Missouri river to Kansas,
west through Hutchinson and on
across southeastern Colorado to AL
buquerque, thence via Springerville,
Fort Apache. Globe AMI Roosevelt to
Phoenix. They had one or Two pre-
carious times when they lost the road
by reason of its not being marked
across long deserts where intarsecting
roads were mistaken for the main
thOroughfare. but always got out of
their trouble successfully. though on
one occasion they came near running
cut of gasoline and had To replenish
their water supply from undesirable
pools by the roadside
Comparing the east with the west
Mr.. HainSworth said he was amazed
at the push and enterprise displayed
in the west. He said that some of the
larger stores carried stocks apparently
as complete and well appointed as in
his home city which boasts Of 800, 900
population and the smaller businesses
like barber shops seem to be thorough
ly up to date in all things. Il is the
air of continuous development that is
constantly borne in upon him. His
own business is well established and if
he leaves the east it Will be at a sac
rifice but he is wearieL by the ever
lasting monotony of things, the fol-
lowing of old customs and traditions
that keep one mentally as well as ply
sically in groove. He loves the west
because it develops mind. body and
purse AMI gives the American citizen
a bigger and better conception of his
own country
Mr. and Mrs. Hainsworth will stay
here a few days then go to San Diego
and from there follow the coast to
Washington. They intended to return
east by the northern route but may
decide the dispose of the car and go
home on a train after they get a full
experience of camp life. They have
seen many places that look good to
them but have not yet begun the MAX
ing of comparisons nor fully determin
ed to quit their eastern home.
