BUOY FLoATED SIX YEARS

"A strange story OF tho seas and

from the Shetland Times, published
at Lerwick.

was picked up on the beach at Gull

The Stanley Dollar was wrecked of
the west coast of Japan In August.

floating in the ocean currents until 1t
landed over In Scotland. Whether 1t
went around the Horn or through tho
Northwest Passage or. down by Aus
tralasia and around the Cape Of Good
Hope into the Atlantic. Is q mystery
of aeafaring men. The buoy holds
the worlds record for drifting the
longest distance ever known.
Equally marvellous is the fact that
1t was not found before, but this may
be explained by the theory that 1t

FIRE DEpAR7NfNT Run
WILL Be A FEATURE

With crashing Of songs, the shouts
of nremen and spectators. the Boise
city IRE department will on one night
during the festival which begins next
Monday evening, give spectators a
demonstration Of how a live and up-to.
date fire department responds to an
alarm Of fire.
This decision was reached this after
noon when, at meeting Of the men,
bers Of the Rainmakers' committee and
the city council. permission vas grant
ed for the fire run. No particular night
was set at the meeting. but II Is thought
highly probable that the spectacular
demonstration will be given on Tuesday
evening. Oct. 8.
The fire run is alive " popular with
the people and when the department
turned out at the last festival, the
run was voted one of the most exciting
and thrilling events of the weeks pro-
gram. The run this year will be Of
particular interest 10 large number
Of visitors from the fact that they will
see one of the newest models Of auto
mobile fire trucks in action for the first
time.
This truck was purchased since the
last festival and though It has been
In service for nearly year. many Of
the citizens of Boise have never had an
opportunity to see 1t when responding
to an alarm Of fire. The entire city
equipment will take part In the spec
tacular dash, which will take place on
Main street.
The city council also granted per-
mission to the Rainmakers to close a
number Of the city's streets during the
big parades and the carnival ball. The
streets to be closed to traffic will be
roped off and no vehicles of any des-
cription with the exception Of those
used in the professions will be allowed
during the stated hours.
Police protection along the line Of
march has also been promised and 1t
Is thought that this festivals parades
and events will be carried through
without q single hitch.
