chinery ready for the next run.

AUTO FIRE ENGINE.
A proposition recently submitted
to the city council for the purchase
of an auto fire engine has not yet
been accepted, nor is it likely to
be* as it will prove a ^bry costly
experiment. The makers say the
machine, will do away with the ser-
vices of one man, and will be much
cheaper than the present system.

MRS. J. T, EDMONSON INJURED.
Mrs. J. T. Edmonson happened to
a very painful accident last Thurs-
day afternoon. She was playing
with and petting a oolt which be-
longed to Lee Bills at the City
hotel when the beast kicked her

and breaknijjf four of her teeth. A
physician was called and dressed
the wounds and she is sinoe recov-

tion of such a machine to a lot of
novices. If it does heavy repair
bills are inevitable, and the cost
of replacing worn tires on such a
machine alone should cause seri-
ous reflection. The city will buy
this machine if it has $3500 to wast
on a bauble-va plaything. Better
stick to the old horses and the mud
wagon. What the city needs most
is an additional reservoir to supple-
ment the water supply in the pres-
ent reservoir. When the Carlton
fire occurred the present reservoir
was exhausted, and a recurrence
should not be permitted. Spend
3,500 where it will be of practical
benefit.
