The Fire Engin gi Question.
To the Bditor of the _Huron Expositor :
As our people have -submitted to them
a by-law to borrow money to purchase a
steam fire -engine, I have made enquiries
in Montreal and Quebec which was the
most useful and efficient system used in
these cities for extinguishing fires, and
have learned aa follows: In both cities
they have English steam engines, ordin-
ary hand engines and chemical engines.
The- steam engine in Montreal cost
$4,500, about a year ago, and up to the
present it has not been used once, though
Several fires have occurred, the hand en-
gines and the chemical being found suffi-
cient to extinguish the fires before the
larger one could be got on the ground.
The Engineer of the Fire Department in
Montreal, With whom I had a long con-
versation, says he thinks several small
hand chemical engines, at the commence-
ment of a Bre, are raueli superior to the
water engines, because they are so easily
handled, and so many nan be used at a
• time, and he further states that, within
the past year, they have extinguished
more fires with them than with any
other apparatus. Ile also says the city
authorities have purchased several of
these small engines and have placed
them in the fire localities of the city.
The large steam fire engine, he says, is
much more diffienit to manage, is slower
to get to the fire, and when it gets there
is not required, the fire being extin-
guished by the smaller ones. A team of
horses must be always ready for it, and
• it can not be worked. without an effieient
engineer and a proper staff of men.
From all I can learn the chemical en-
gines are the best learn,
ordinary single
house fires, and ,that, if the steam en-
gines are expected to be serviceeble, they
must have a large supply a water,
which cannot be had in. Seaforth. My
opinion is, from all I can learn, that the
people of Seaforth should .vote against
the expensive system now submitted to
the people for ratification, and immedi-
ately after petition the village Council
for some cheaper fire apparatus, either
chemical or hand engine, so as to secure
efficiency, with the least neceseary out-
lay. Yours truly, T. T. COLEMAN.

SUDDEN DEATH. —A very sudden death
• ccurred at Parker's Hotel, Brussels, on

t. Marys'aged about 55 years, was

was apparently in the best health and

he expired. His body was taken to St.
Marys for taterment.--Past.
TrrEBELolt&v1 POSTMASTER.-- "Weare
aware that Mr. 'Clegg, in bis capacity of
township Clerk of Norris, has openly
-violated the Statutes, in order that he
might give the papers in _question [the
ExresrroR and Wingham Times] some
pap,' in the shape of township adver-
tising and job work, which should le-
gally come to the Post. These tricks of
Mr. Clegg account for the milk in the
cocoa nut so far es our confreres are con-
cerned."—Brussls Post.
The only replyi to the above which it
is necessary to Make is, that, within the
past two years, the total patronage
we have received from the Township
Council of Morris amounted to $3.
When we state that we . circulate over
300 copies of our paper in that to_wriship,
our readers will be able to judge whether
or not the Clerk has " violated the stat-
utes" in order to give nes "pap," or
whether the amount of "pap" he has
placed in our way Would be likely to in-
fluence our course toward him.

8 eined pleased. Several addresses were
d livered, and elections of vocal and in-
strumental nips c given: The Brod_hagen
b ass band was 'n attendance and added
m eh to the ple sure of the Proceedings.
I the evening a very successful enter-
tainment was held in the school house,

si were given an good style, and the
ee ening entertamment was as successful
as the afternoon pic-nic. •
