AMERICANS AHEAD.
Appliances for Fighting Firo at the

ishing. There is much tu be learned from
America by all of us savs the Ignition
News, and "it i.s to be retrretted that one
of the eraclc brijradcs of the states
eoul.l not have enis-sed the ocean to at
tend the present firemen's eornrrens.
We may find one more opportunity for
the lesson if the committee of the Chi
eatfo exhibition think fit to invite the
firemen of Kurope to the coining
world's fair. Tho Amerieans like to
think that they take the lead in this
branch of public work; and by all ac
counts of them they would still W very
hard to beat. Most of our newer con
trivances are probably of American
origin. The steam tire engine; the
horses standing ready harnessed day
and nitfht and trained to walk straight
into the shafts as soon as they hear
the alarm bell; thepoledown which the
men. also ready dressed, slide from
their slecpintf-rooins to reach the tase
inent to save the few seconds that mifrht
1m- lost by their coining downstairs all
these seem to have been matters of
common experience in America when
they were still talked of as novelties
here. The same thintf may be said of
the alarm boxen.
The Americans train for speed, and
Rome of their "records" are a-stonish-inp.
At a fire which occurred in New
York two years Rtfo. the first alarm was
received at tt:07. In three minutes after
that the lirst engine reached the burn
ing building, which, it may be sup
poset 1, was not far on. The whole see;
ond floor, which was one hundred feet
lonjr, was a mass of fire, and the flames
were spreading to the stories abov.i
Other engines stvin arrived, and by 0:3.,
or in less than half an hour, not a
spark of fire was left in the building
The water towers, which are hutfe per
pendicular pipe, curried on a movable
derrick, pour the stream into the high
est buildings at any elevation recinireil.
They are packed into a comparatively
small space when not in use, but are in
stantly reared to their full height by
the force of carbonic acid gas. The
floating tire engines are largely used in
New York, as the city is surrounded by
water. The latest is built of steel, and
it travels at a very great speed. Its
four pipes are from three to four inches
in diameter, but the power of all the
pnmps may be concentrated into one or
two pipes, which yield a still larger vol
ume of water. These five-inch streams,
iu their tremendous force, act like battering-rams
and drive their way through
ceilings and roofs, and even through
brick walls, into the very heart of the
fire.
In some instances the life lines are
fired from a gun, on much the same
principle as that in use for the rocket
apparatus at sea. The gun carries a thiu
line to the firemen at the top of the
"burning building, and with this they
draw up the stouter rope they require.
The life nets, w hich are eqiia'ly light
and strong, into which persons jump
with comparative impunity from the
highest tloors, save many lives. The
In-st of these contrivances have been in
troduced in our own fire service, in
great part owing to the enterprise
and energy of Capt. Shaw. He
was able to boast in his farewell
address that during the thirty years
of his control of the metropolitan
hritrode the number of stations
had been raised from thirteen to fifty
nine ami the number of firemen from
not much more than one hundred to a
little over seven hundred. In lsril there
were no telephones or call points. They
now extend over the whole of London.
The last moment of hi official career,
however, ("apt. Shaw was still calling
for more of everything. Yet it will e
Home time before the rate payer will
enable him to realize his ideal of thirty
two new stations at an average cost of
a thousand a year each. A perfect
water supply wiw theu, and perhaps
still is, our most pressing need. Only a
small number of the pipes were con
stantly charged, anil there were often
more engines at a fire than there was
water for their use.
A WELL OF ICiI WATER.
One of Dakota' ('unit. Iaut autl Natural
.usuries.
A well-known Hartford lawyer, who
has been traveling in the northwest,
has come back with a story of an ex
ceptionally natural convenience, the
contemplation of which, in this trop
ical season, says the Hartford t'ourant
refreshes one's soul, uuless it breeds
uneasy envy.
II was stopping with a family in
North Dakota. It was in July, and
clear, cold water a luxury he did not
f riijiiently find was most acceptable.
The water on the table was so very
sweet and so very cold that he was led
to remark on its excellence.
"Yes, our well has always satisfied us,
and we think we have a good thing
when we can draw ice water in mid
summer." "It certainly is as cold as ice water,''
said tho visitor, not believing the re
mark was meant exactly literally.
"No. but it's actually ice water; we'll
show it to you after dinner."
And after dinner out they went, anil
the New Knfland man was asked to
look down. It was a round small brick
shaft, much like the old wells seen here
abouts, and went down to an extraor
dinary depth. Hut there was a beauti
ful sight at the bottom. It was, sure
enough, a natural ice water tank, l'ieces
of clear ice floated in the water, and a
close ltxik showed a thick coating of ice
all around the sides for quite a distance
above the water. The melting was
surely slow enough down there, and the
prospect was god for plenty of ice
water, at lea&t till the hot weather was
over.
The explanation was simple enough.
When the bucket is drawn a little of
the wat2r always spills or drips, and
often stri!:ts the sides of the well as it
falls. In th winter and Dakota win
ters are uold this 'water at once freezes,
and soon the entire length of the shaft
is lined with ice This thickens at an
increasing rate, and it is frequently
necessary to cut it away with an ax to
make room in which the bucket can
slide up and down. In the spring this
begins to melt, and the i.e falls to the
ttom. The farther down, the slower
is the process of melting.
Hot Polities to England.
as illustrating the bitterness of the
recent campaign in Great Itritain the
lloston Transcript publishes a letter
writtcu by an Knglish liberal to a friend
iu lloston. "We have had," he says, "a
tremendous hard fight many say the
greatest since ItCfi. All the aristocracy,
landlords, publicans, factors, and. above
all, the church against ua. The latter
grew so keen on the subject that from
over fifty pulpits for several Sundays
past we (the liWral party) have been
hje. ially commended to the Lord for
punishment, and sermons against our
idt-na preached. Some of the ministers
have even gone so far as to say that any
oue who troted for was not fit to re
ceive the sacrament. Think of that in
this nineteenth century, and it will
show you how deep and bitter the fight
has been. All I can say is that there
are 6.535 excommunicated people in
ltd constituency pjxjius."
