Receive New Fire Truck.

The Marseilles fire department re-

Verne motor truck works at LuVerne,

and instruct the department in the
working of the same, were in charge
OF the new truck.
Several citizens took advantage of
the opportunity to ride on the new
machine as it was run through the
principal streets.
The city council and fire depart
ment are justly proud of this new ad-
dition to the fire fighting apparatus

motor Is geared to run fifty miles an
hour.
The Marsciles fire department feels
that now 1t is up to date in every par
ticular and can compare with any city
of FIVE times the population in fire
equipment.
The machine will be fully demon
strated this afternoon and the full
fire company will be out and water
will be thrown from the hydrant and
also from the canal, SO that citizens
may see the machine in full operation.
Mr.. Leicher will remain for about
week or ten days, until he has the
fire department thoroughly informed
as to the handling of the machine.
This fire truck is manufactured by the
LuVerne fire truck motor company of
Luverne, Mimi, and they certainly
have produced machine which fills
all the requirements of cities the size

The city council is to be congratu
lated on the purchase of this ma

respondence with Coroner Donohue
Of La Sale and informed him that
the body had been identified, which at
the time the coroners inquest was
held, could not be done. An answer
this morning from the coroner stated
that the coroner would amend his
notes so as to show who the dead man
really was.
Many citizens believe that this man
met with foul play and that his death
was not due to accident. 1t has been
suggested that the coroner call his
jury together again and make further
investigation so that the facts that
have appeared since the mans death
should be made matter of record.
