AUTOMOBILE STREET SWEEPER
 READY FOR SERVICE HERE

The Elgin automobile street sweeper, which was ordered several months ago by the public worxs committee has ar rived for the use of the street depart ment and was given it's first trial on the streets Monday.
 The sweeper parts arrived here sev eral days ago and the machine was set up at the city barn to await the arrival of an instructor from the factory. He came Monday and Street Commissioner George E. Fellows had him take the sweeper out with men of the street de- partment for instruction in how to run it. As soon as the men have learned the operation of the machine, Street Commissioner Fellows will have it put into use at once. According to the ten tative schedule which he has outlined it would be put on the brick and block paving in the business center of the city in the early morning and on the outlying streets later in the day. It can do much more work and do it more quickly than the old method by man-power with brooms.
 The sweeper carries a water tank, wa l tering and rolling the street at the same time as it sweeps. The water is sprin- kled from four nozzles in front of the | roller, while a big circular revolving l brush does the sweeping, the dust being kept down by the sprinkling in front of the sweeper.

h DISCONTINUE FAILS FIRE STATION

At the close of a meeting held Monday night in Chief Howard L. Stanton's of- ice at the Central fire station, the three fire commissioners, Alderman c. V. Pen dleton, Jr., Councilmen Edward Crooks and N Eugene Smith, stated that they had reached the unanimous decision to close up the Falls fire station. It is a move for economy and with no impair ment of efficiency, nor will it lessen the fire protection for the Falls section of the city, the commissioners declared Chief Stanton, who met with them, concurred in this view and said the step the com misSioners were taking was absolutely the right one
 The discontinuance of the Falls fire sta tion will be made effective about the first of October, but will not mean the dis charge of any of the three permanent men now on duty there Capt. A. D.. Lewis will serve in the other companies of the department on the days when their captains are having their regular days off, while John Nolan and Thomas Rear ney will be placed in some of the other companies.
 In explanation of their move, the com miSsioners said they had gone over the situation thoroughly, inspected the house carefully, looked into the condition of the two horses and the general equipment and considered the changes that had oc- cured in the district since 1908, when the horse-drawn combination chemical and hose wagon was ut at the Falls. The question that came up before them now was whether to buy c new team of horses and spend about $3,000 in the repairs of the fire house. Both would have to be done, if the station were to be continued, and they believed it would be better to give up the station and use the money that would hc saved in making more eff cient the fire fighting facilities that the department now has elsewhere.
 The two horses. Tom and Jerry, were bought in 1908, when they were said to be and 6 years old, respectively. Twelve years of service makes them now r and IS years old. so that new horses should be secured if horse-drawn piece of apparatus were to be maintained. As matter of fact, said the commissioners. the Falls station has really been out of commission for the last 10 days and could not have nswered call. since one of the horses has heen laid up with a sore foot. and it will be 10 days before
