STEAMER PROVES VALUABLE.
But For the General Putnan's Aid All Wauresan Village Must Have Burned.

Chief A. P. Woodward, who was in charge of the men and equipment of the local fire department at Wauregan Sunday, says that the General Put nam steamer demonstrated what a splendid machine it is and how valu- able it may any time prove to be to this community, as it was at Sundays fire. Under the strain of pumping wa ter through 1900 feet of hose from which two streams were playing, the machine was 1ept running at top pressure without a letup for seven hours, and it ran as smoothly as a watch every minute of the time. The steamer was undoubtedly the salvation of West Wauregan. Four horses hauled the steamer from the Central station here and it was at work in Wauregan in an hour and ten minutes after the call for help was received Up to the time of it's arrival scores of able and willing men stood helpless, as building after building was consumed without any possible chance of check ing the big fire. which, but for the To- cal machine, would probably have cleaned up the village.
