FIRE ENsINE SHOWS RESULTS
 oN MT. PLEASANT STREET
From 31tPound Hydrsnt Delivers 64T GaIlonJ' Per Minute Through 300 FSet of Huse.

Fer the purpose of demonstrating what ah engine can do on one of the Neiwlch hills where the water pressure at the hydrant is low. Chief stanton gave the steamer a test Monday aItef noon from 2s0 to about 4 O'elSeE on Mt Pleasant street at the hydrant ih front eff Alderman Thomas II. Beck ley's house.
 brought out by the test. entirely satis- factory results were reached, these in cluding the fact that the engine show ed 1t was doing just ss good work as it did when bought in 1905, that hose bought ten years ago and gEaFanteed for five years was still stanalhg ID under the strain. and that the help or the engine at this hydrant would raise the tyGfRnt pressure of 31 pounds to a highly effective and delugive stream for fire fighting
 This is a section where one year ago in February, when the fire under writers made tests, these hydrants were absolutely dry. At the hydf0nt Monday the pressure was 31 pounds, at the end of the line of $50 feet of house 10 pounds out of l l-4 inch nozzle.
 With the engine pumping with 100 pounds water pressure shown the noz- | gle pressure rose to 40 pounds. With | a 1 Is inch nozzle, engine water pres ! sure of 1s5 pounds, the nozzle pressure was 80 pounds, equivalent to SS5 gal | Ions per minute.
 Putting oh the Eastman deluge se | by double line of hose q delivery O. 505 gallons per minute was obtained from a i IA inch nozzle with lS' pounds at the engine and l20 pouncl pressure at the nozzle. 4 1 1-2 incl nozzle produced 55S gallons per min ute
 The big flood of water was obtaine' when two separate streams were rul at once, with which d delivery of {
 pounds nozzle pressure q 1S inches
 equal to 290 gallons, and 50 pound nozzle pressure d IA inches), equal {
 367 gallons, was secured. This was
 total delivery of SAT gallons, which
 47 gallons more than the rated capaci
 ty of the engine.
 Alderman Beckley. who is chairma : of the fire commissioners, witnesse
 the test and expressed himself we pleased with the demonstration.
 After the alderman had left for hi
 office the firemeh had a short but re;
 job in fire fighting in putting out small blaze which started in q windO | of the alderman's house from spark , from the engine settling there.

Horses Run Away When Auto Strikes
 Waqon Pole

An automobile struck the pole of a large team wagon belonging to Kra- mer & Henderson which was stand ing on Prospect street at about five o'clock Monday afternoon and so frightened the horses that they ran away They went up Prospect street at gallop and tried to turn down Sixth street towards Central avenue, but could not make the corner and crashed into large tree at the edge of the sidewalk. One horse struck the tree squarely with his head and spec tators thought surely his neck was broken. Both horses went down and it took considerable work to get them on their feet again. when it was found that they were uninjured. The wagon pole was splintered and the team was turned over but little injured.
