Probably the first smoke consuming
device to be installed in Barre IS at
tached to the boiler at the Barre steam
laundry and according to the statement
OF the owners of the business, the con-
sumner is more than justifying its pur-
chase. The device was manufactured by
the Coppus company of Springfield, Mass.
Its Attachment TO the boiler enables the
fireman to turn from soft coal to what
Is known as birds eye" variety OF
bituminous coal that is burned with lit
tie smoke. The Corpus device operates
on forced draught system and where
the locality in which the laundry Is To-
Gated used to be troubled by heavy vol
umes Of thick, black smoke, there is now
scarcely so much as a puff of smoke in
the atmosphere. Residents of Pearl and
North Main streets are rejoicing over the
introduction Of consuming system.

One of the chief sources of danger at
the narrow curve on the Barre Williams
town road, where an automobile contain
ing 10 people slipped off the bank into
the river last Sunday, might be averted
by cutting'the brush on the inside of the
curve and along the river bank so that
occupants of vehicles approaching from
either, side could see the road beyond the
curve. The ability of the occupants. of
vehicles to see beyond the curve would
greatly lessen the chance for a meeting
of vehicles at the curve and thus do
away with the necessity for driving a
wagon or automobile near the edge of
the river bank. Few drivers of vehicles
of any kind would take the chance OF
passing another on the narrow road and
would slow down before reaching the
curve in order to. pass where the road is
wider or at least,not hanked by the river
as closely as the road is flanked at the
point in question. Therefore, The Times
would respectfully suggest TO the au-
thorities of WHliamstown, presumably
the seleetmen, that the brush and foliage
be cut down or trimmed at this curve in
order to lessen the chances for another
occurrence of such terrible possibilities
as that which took place Sunday and
which, fortunately, resulted in neither
loss of life nor serious injury to anyone
Of the 10 persons endangered.

One OF the best contested baseball
games ever staged in East Barre took
place late yesterday when the East
Barre aggregation inflicted defeat TO
the Barre All-Stars, a team composed
mostly of Barre A. c. players The East
Barre team won by the score of to o.
The game was won by virtue OF the
wonderful pitching of "Dannie" Beaton
who held the Barre lads to two hits and
struck out l6 batters. He was never IN
danger of being scored on. The exhibi-
ton of pitching by Beaton was superb,
Every member OF the Barre team fell be-
fore his curves by the strike out route.
Brave" Fowlie. the Barre catcher, took
the mound for the All-Stars. He pitched
good ball, holding East Barre to hye
hits. The East Barre team managed TO
bunch their hits in one inning and scored
their only run. Beaton had an able bat
terymate in Taplin the former Barre
star. Jack Clare of the /. A. c., who
was in the All-Star lineup, played a
good game as did Melt" Brown, and Sui
Ivan. A large delegation of rooters ae-
companied the team TO East Barre last
night. The series now stands one game
each for the East Barre and Barre
teams.

SALMON CREEK DAM
 CONSERVING WAFER

The gates of the great concrete im- pounding dam of the Alaska Gastineau Mining company at Salmon creek were closed yesterday afternoon at i've O. clock and the storage reservoir is now filling up with water that is to be con served for next winters use during the days when the normal flow of wa ter is insufficient to meet the needs of the two power plants.
 Chief Engineer Fl. F. Wollenberg said this morning that 1t was expect cd that the basin would accumulate under normal conditions, during the remainder of the fall upwards of lO,- 900 acre feet of water, bringing 1t to a depth of 125 feet at the dam. This, Mir. Wollenberg states. will be enough to carry the power plants over the coming winter. Next season the res ervoir can be filled earlier and it may be brought to its full depth of about 175 feet and creating a storage of ls.- 900 acre feet of water.
 The second unit is now being in- stalled at the beach power station at salmon creek and when this is finish ed the power project will be com pleted as originally planned and is ex' pected to furnish all the power re- ouired for the\mining and milling op- erations of the company at Juneau as at present developed.
