Tuesday, March 90.

The North Topeka fire station is
used by the city fire department as a
hospital for all of the injured fire
horses. Because of the extra stalls at
this station, there are usually one or
two guests, undergoing treatment Tor
sickness or an accident.
Saturday one of the white horses
from No. station in Oakland, was
brought to the North side station TO
receive treatment for an injured ankle,
which had been cut by a tin can Wh1Ie
answering an alarm.
The North Topeka station, when
built, was made large enough to ac-
commodate four teams and an equal
number of wagons, in case the growth
of North Topeka should make neces-
sary for the department to add addl-
donal equipment. A hose wagon and
"a Chemical wagon are now used at
this station
He Let Them Run.
A runaway team of black horses
hitched to a. lumber wagon and guided

Central avenue on St. John street, ana
north Central avenue across the
bridge.
1t was the first excitement of this
nature occurring in North Topeka ior
attention. Persons who saw the rum

had them under control after gong
block, but allowed them to run the
rest of the way in order to break the
team of the habit.
