S. and N. station which did about $100 worth of damage before it was extinguished. The fire caught in the law dust house, just off from the planing mill and the engine house, and while there was considerable smoke there was not much tire, which was partly smothered by the sawdust and pre \cnted from breaking out In a blaze. The steamer was taken to the fire and started to work and quickly had the fire under control. The Steamer worked tine and the stream of water that it threw was something to make the people not acquainted with it.-- properties very much aston Ished. it showed that while it might not be a go-.d thing in times when haste counted most, it was a good thing to have at tires when it was wanted to put them out in a hurry and something that the city really needs after all. Th.' steamer has been Kept ready f.?r use for the past two months, one if ttio hose wagonfl having been put to one side as too dilapidated for present use, it was fired tip in a short time Saturday afternoon, Blnce th.' tire it has be< n cleaned up and looks as bright and clean as If it had just come from the shop, newly made, The fire was In the same place tii.it another lire OCCUfTed about two months ago, which did slightly more damage than did the fire Saturday. soi'TIIERN FIREMEN WONT STRIKE.
