CITY FIRE TRUCK
STANDS THE TEST
As Shown by Testimonial and
Long Service Shows ii
without Single Defect.

The Boyd fire truck and other
equipment recently purchased by the
city are. expected to arrive within
the next few days. The truck is of
the 1915 model and is of most salts
factory make as the following letter
appearing recent number; of Fire
and Water Engineering about a SINH
lar truck shows. written by Samuel a.
Crawford, president Of the Montgom-
cry Hose Company, of Norristown,
Pa, and addressed to the Boyd peo-
pie: 4
1.-The truck you shipped us June
20. 1911, three years ago, has never
failed to respond to an alarm prompt
~ and has given efficient service at
all times.
1.-The reason l am writing is just
to let you know that the company Is
more than pleased with the truck
and as you ire the manufacturers,
we thought you would be interested
to know about the good service the
machine has given.
THE truck has fulflllc< its guar
antee in every respect as to appear
ance construction and efficiency. 1t
has won several cups at different fire
conventions which we think proves
its worth.
"Since you put on the Kanawha
air pressure chemical system. We
have found it far superior to the old
soda-and-acid system which we used
for so long. We have been able to
extinguish larger fires in less time
with the new system.
ION the whole was can say that
we have not one fault to find with
the car; so, we think it must be
without any as three years continu
Gus service certainly would have
brought out any defects had there
been any"

WITH BIG KNIFE
Coal Miner Tries to Stay Fam.
lily But He is Restrained
and Sent to Asylum.

Brandishing a large blade from a
corn cutter, AID. Lindsy, a coal
miner, attempted to hack members
OF his family Friday morning in his
home near Shinnston, but ne was re-
strained before anyone was injured
Constable Benjamin w. Harbert was
Immediately summoned from Lum-
berport and he brought Lindsy be-
fore Magistrate w. L. Starcher for a
hearing as to his sanity. A COM
mittee of doctors pronounced the
man crazy and by special arrange
ment he was taken at once to the
state hospital for the insane at Wes-
ton by the constable.
Lindsy was seriously injured in a
coal mine explosion about two years
ago near Shinnston and two grown
sons were killed at the same time.
The injuries he received and grief
over the loss of his two sons caused
him to lose his mind. He had been
mentally feeble for some time but
did not become violent until Friday
morning.
