BOX 2s4 FALSE ALARM.
Called Department to Turner & STAN
ton Co. MiIl-No Fire and No One
Seen to Pull the Box.

A false alarm rung in from Box Pa.
private box of The Turner & Stanton
Co., and the Brainerd and Armstrong
Co, located on North Main street.
near the foot Of Schofield's Hill. called
out all the fire apparatus in the CEN
ter OF the city at 1875 O'Clock on
Tuesday night. When the firemen
arrived there was no one at the box
and no fire in sight so the recall was
quickly sounded and the apparatus
returned to their stations.
Chief Howard L. Stanton has plac-
ed the matter in the hands of the po-
lice who will make every effort to
discover the cUlprit. 1t won't be
Sunday School picnic either for the
person when landed at police head
quarters for the penalty provides a
fine of SIS and Imprisonment of six
months, according to state law.
Box 234, although private differs
from other private boxes as ii is fit
ted with a glass and key like the
public boxes and as it Is owned joint
~ by the Turner & Stanton AID the
Brainerd and Armstrong companies is
located outside the plants where it is
easily accessible. 1t is on a pole with
an electric light about 10 feet above
the box.
Private boxes in other parts of the
city have no key attached as the key
is i'll the custody Of the Waterman of
the various plants. Box 234 was
| fitted with glass and key ct the sug-
gostion of the two companies, so that
anyone discovering a fire at either
plant may pull in the box without
/ looking up the Waterman.
The pulling in of a false alarm Is
a serious offense as accidents are
! likely to happen with so many auto
mobiles chasing after the fire APP
paratus. The speed law seems to
| slide into the background for the time
being when the fire bell rings for au-
to drivers dash through the streets
| and around sharp corners at a good
deal faster rate than the fifteen miles
an hour allowed by law. Several au.
! tonaobile drives went through Nortf
Main street Tuesday night at abou
thirty miles an hour, leaving a CLOUD
of dust behind them to bother the
! drivers of the fire apparatus.
Just before he left the box to drive
home again Chief Stanton announced
to the crowd that had gathered tina
he would give S25 to anyone wnC
would tell him who rung the box ant
Norwich bulletin. [volume] (Norwich, Conn.) 1895-2011, 1915-10-27

that the man who pulled the false
alarm would get SIS fine and six
months in Jail and that the chief
would appreciate the privilege of Civ
ing him a .ound- thrashing besides.
Policeman Matthew Delaney said he
had been past the corner Of the street
but a short time before and had seen
no one around the box and the watch
man at the mill had not seen any
one.
In the rivalry that ordinarily is seen
to reach Young's corner first when
there are alarms in the direction OF
Greeneville, the horse-drawn chemi-
cal wagon from the Main street sta
ton had big margin on the auto
chemical from the central station and
was we'll uD towards the post office
by, the time the chemical rounded
Young's corner.

BONFIRE THREATENED
TO SPREAD TO BARN
Firemen Called Out to Check Burning
leaves at Broadway Place.

At 4.15 o'clock Tuesday afternoon
the Central station companies re-
sponded to a call for a fire at No. 24s
Broadway, which turned out to be a
large bonfire which had gotten away
from the two boys in charge. The
older of the two boys said that they
had been hired to rake up and burn
the leaves on the premises. The large
fire they had in the rear of the former
Turner residence got beyond their con-
troll and as they feared for the safety
of the nearby barn they telephoned
for the flremen. They neglected to
state the nature of the fire, however,
and Chief Stanton thought it advis-
able to send all the companies from
the Central station, and Chemical COM
pany No. from the Falls station. The
confire was extinguished with chem
ical
At los o'clock Tuesday afternoon the
auto was called out for a chimney
fire at the Spicer estate on Laurel
Hill. The fire was extinguished with
chemical.

Of course, we all know there is no other mode in this coun- try after winter sets in, unless you walk; and have studied this part of the dog problem exhaustiYely and have become firmly convinced that l rrefer to take my trips entirely dogless. If I start on trip with out dogs, I must walk if with dogs l must run, with occasional stops to disentangle them from the un- derbrush; also an occasional side trip of ten or fifteen miles through the brush after q rabbit that the leader has spied.
 From dogs we will pass to the sourdough. Not thatI am taking up thess different subjects accord ing to rank, but rather according to numbers. The sourdough, espe- cially he that Is particularly in- digenous to Gibbon, I find to be silent and reserved specimen. He will seldom speak unless you happen Go meet him in the immediate vi- cinity of a saloon. He will then remark on the lateness of the win ter, freely give you his opinion of the kaiser, Villa, Carranza ct al, but off the main beaten path he is clam. In my early days in Alas ka I investigated and invested in the soufdough to the extent Of about ten dollars before l discov- cred that there was not enough static to run his conversational works when too far from a brass rail.

A certain thrill that is hard to explain comes over one as the Davis glides around bend at about two In the morning and qui- etly creeps up on slumbering pile of four-foot wood. These wond- piles, however, serve to dispel the illusion that Alaska is noted for gold. It is not gold at all that keeps this country open. It's wood. There is more wood in Alaska than In the rest of the worlG combined, or there was before the Davis arrived at Gibbon on September 21 last.
