YANTIc PUHRER-cHEM1cAL
 PERFORMS WELL. IN TESTS

The recently purchased combination bumper and chemical for the Yantic Fire company was given an underwriters test on Tuesday afternoon at the. canal of the Liberty Woolen company. in Yantic. En- gineer Merchant of the New England In surance exchange of Boston. with Chief H. L. Stanton and Selectman C. K Bailey, conducted the test
 For two hours the bumper worked at a low pressure test of 120 pounds. The bumper came up to expectations and then there was a one-half hour test at 200 pounds pump pressure and another half hour test at 250 pounds pump pres sure Under all conditions the bumper performed very creditably.
 Engineer Merchant will make report to the exchange and then send the official finding to Chief Stanton.
 The chemical is one of the 35 gallon type with the bumper having a capacity of $50 gallons at pressure of 120 pounds. It has an engine that will de- velop 50 horsepower and will throw a stream 90 feet vertical and 75 horizontal. It is of the A E type and is equipped with a self starter. electric lights and will run at speed of 35 miles per hour. There are also along with it the extra acid bottles and containers and it will hold from 800 to 700 feet of hose and has a chemical hose of 200 feet.

Ameriea,s Baltic.

The Great Lakes are not the Ameri- can Mediterranean. as so often they are called. but the American Baltic or will be such when the passage to the sea is completed.
 The American Mediterranean is the Caribbean sea and the Gulf of Mexico. The latter is body of warm water. as is the Mediterranean. It is a vast basin with truly oceanic depths, and an arti- ficial work across a narrow isthmus affords communication with the Pacific, just as the Mediterranean separates continents and by the Suez canal con- meets with the Red sea and Indian ocean.
 The Great Lakes form. like. the Bal tic. a long and narrow arm. They lie. like the Baltic, in a northern region Of seasonal ice and snow. They pene- trate like the Baltic. far into the con- tinental mass. This entrance from the gulf of St. Lawrence and the river is tortuous and often mist-hung. like the entrance to the Baltic through the Cattegat. -.e -..,.
 It is some eighteen hundred miles from Copenhagen at the Baltic en- trance to Kronstadt. at the head of the gulf of Finland. which may be con 7 sidered the head of navigation. 1t is some twelve hundred miles from Mont- real to Duluth at Superior's head or Chicago at Michigan's head. But when the Welland Canal has been deepened and the St. Lawrence made a deep waterway the difficulty of passage from ocean level 10 that of the four upper lakes will not be greater than the passage into the Baltic from the North sea.
 The commerce of the four upper lakes exceeds in tonnage what the tom mage in the Baltic has ever been. The Baltic trade helped make Londen a great port and many. cities Of the IIansa league were Baltic ports. Tho Baltic once was a Hanseatic lake. Then 1t became a Swedish one. Later it was a British lake. and after Bismarck built the empire alderman one.s Since | the surrender of the German fleet it Is of course, dominated by British seq | power. There is no politics involved in th, American Baltic. Only the United States and Canada share the waterway | How they get along can be seen any day at Sault Ste. Marie. where a Can, adian boat takes the American locks i convenient, of an American boat thl Canadian locks Dominion and repub | lie known how to settle difficulties al
 they arise and how 10 participate il commercial developments.

 of the Great. Lakes shows Cbicaz

Start of a Fortuse.

Cornelius Vanderbilt, head of the famous family of that name, made his first hundred dollars by the haFdest- sort of work. He was seventeen years old at the time and was anxious to own 9 boat that he might join the ranks of the watermen that swarmed New York harbor and carried every thing from passengers to Vegetables. His mother was opposed to his hopes, but at last agreed that she would give him the sum demanded, S1ae, with which to buy boat if he would piow, harrow and plant with corn ten acre let. The lot was the worst on the Van derbilt farm, covered with stones, stumps and debris and of most un- even topography.
 Cornelius wentSto work with 2 will, and at the end of an appointed time completed the job. He received his money and rushed out to buy a boat. He found one at a neighboring village and started for home in his new pur- chase. He had not gone a mile before he struck hidden reef, and the boat was sunk. He managed to raise it, and in the next three months he had made 5000 and the sart of the fortune that was to mount to many millions.- Detroit News.

 J. NapokofsH and J. Ostrowski. part ners in a Greeneville store, were accused of keeping disorderly place. Ostrowski was fined $50 and costs. but Napokofski was discharged, as 1t was shown he was not in the place at the time of the alleged disorderly acts.
