any Are bow went out of the err hall
it was not with hi+ percussion.
Mr. Fletcher had a good word to •ay
fQr the fire rompers, claimed that it

His Worship naked Mr Hrlh.•r if it
WAS not his duty to know the con-
dition of the hydrants, to which Mr.
Belcher replied that it was somebody's
duty, and added that the fire company
found NORM'id'thr .hydrants n out u f
order every time there was a fire.
Deputy Reeve Reid suggested that
the fire warden should instruct Ili.
teen how to turn it hydrant, and Mr.
Belcher sail that it was sometimes
necessary to turn et hydrant the wrong
way to get it »tarte t. The hydrants.
he said, should lie inspected urrcr a
month, but it wire tint hi,s job to do
this.
The Mayor asked as to {raetier■ soy
the Are cvwpsny, and Mr. Belcher
said they were supped to prartisc
once a month in summer.
tips Worship -"Do you do that Y'
Mr. Belcher-- "No."
The Waren wept stun rltnlllig that
in winter time they did not eon* ani
at all, aa it was hard un the hese. In
summer tirue they counted a fire as a
practice, and seethe months they were
prevented from hating a -practice by
the rain.
The Mayor pointed amt that it was a
notorious fact that three were no fire
practices. and said it was the warden's
duty to know all about the regulations.
His Worship nett asked about the
fire company's wrenches, and Mr.
Belcher said the only way to have ei
supply Was to give • standing order
for su many a week. Chairman
Moaning- it -Lbs tura comuuttoa- said"
he bad found eleven wrenches in the
bore wagon the day of the Trent in-
spection. when one wrench had to 1e
taken ftom hydrant to hydrant on n
bicycle because no others could be
found.
Again on the subject of the condition
of the hydrants. Mr Belcher said he
did not know whose duty it was to
look after the hydrants, but there was
r tw for a good deal of improvement.
here be sent out et gran with the be
Spector to show him the hydrants. and
be was asked by it Ulan at the water-
works station to let him go instead of
the member of the fire company, as
there were some of the hydrants out
of commission, which should ix•
missed.
Mr..Belcber-"1 think we get a lot
of mean, nasty criticism that we don't
deserve."
His Worship --"We ought to be kept
in touch with things, and the statutes
provide that you should report."
Mr. Belcher -••The council knows
all •bout lots of these things."
Sus Worship ••This is all new to
me."
Councillor Jordan rose at this
juncture to criticise the chairman of
the fire committee, Mr. Mnnniugs.
who, he said. should know all about
the departuten just Its t. h.• chairman
of the public worte rommittce should
know all about that department. If
he (Mr. Jordans were chairman ttf the
fire committee dill the cnunril think
he would not know?
This, of course, went against the
grain with Conncilic'ar Munnings, who
expressed the opinion, "Jordan
doers not know what he is talking
shout," and. it.. for Jordan ("Corm
calor -Jordan, your Worship," -this
from Councillor Jordan 1tiutrrlfl,
don't think we ought to pay any et
tention to that_"
Mr. Belcher returned to the subject
of the Are ladders, and said that, when
the British Exchange and the King
Edward hotels were being repainted
the ladders were out for weeks.
Councillor Munnings said that who-
ever knew that condition sheuht have
reported it, and be moved, seconded
.by Reeve O&llow, that no one should
borrow any of the fire apparatus. This
was carried unanimously.

Steamer Silverland Makes Maiden
Trip.
The Toronto World of Saturday last
had the following account of the
maiden trip of the "Silverland," land" the
new steel -hulled steamer built fur the
Hailrybury Navigation Co. hythe
Duty Engine Works ('o.. Lt, of
Uodeuich. The hull was built in
Toronto, and the machinery woe the
pre,duet of the Ooderich Newry. The
Wurld'e item was AS follows
With much pomp and eplendor, the
•'Silverlaud," Haileybury's new boat,
steamed from the deck yesterday on
her maiden trip. About tine hundred
passengers. all invited guests, were
abuatd, and as the boat sailed down
the lake at the rats of fourteen miles
au hour against • heavy bead wind,
a picture of the progressiveness of
Northern Ontario Was struck that
could scarcely be forgotten.
Last summer when South Lorrain
was in its infancy the boat teervice to
the camp did not satiety some of the
wort discriminating of the camp's sup-
porters, and as A conseiuener an Agi-
tation was put under way for a new
boat. In a dew days s rnmparty war
formed and a small boat purchased
to make the run. So great was the
success of this boat that • large steel -
hulled steamer was ordered built, and
the "Silverland" is the result of these
efforts.
The boat was built by the linty En-
gine Works of Ooderieh, and was their
first attempt in Northern Ontario.
The "Silverland" is a credit to their
e
efforts a seise
hter the best
steamer in the byorth today.
Although one hundred people were
aboard yesterday, she was in no
way crowded, and should carry double
that ler with ease.
On hoard yesterday anis Mr. Doty
of the shipbuilding company of that
name' and also a Government ship
inspector. The •1411verland" came
through her inspection with flying
colors, and willrl nmediately he put
on the run to South Lorrain, making
two trills a day where the other boats
made but one. She is equipped with a
fore-and-aft eonspound engine, and is
capable of making a speed of fifteen
miles an hour at the least.
The:steamer is brilliantly illuminated
by electric lights, and the latest and
most up-to-date equipment has been
installed throughout.
Manager A. Is. Way is deserving of
• great deal sf credit for the way in
which he handled the ceremony yes-
terday, and if his enterprise is con.
tinned into further workings of the
company, as it surely will be, success

Early in 8eptemlwr, the members

THE RIFLE LEAGUE MATCH.
To the Editor of TM Menai.
Stn, --I received a letter from the
secretary of the Huron 11. A. regard-
ing the communication of a Mt. Helens
correspondent inyour issue of July
15th. He thinks that the article has
left the impression that the officers
and committee knowingly and wil-
fully turned down nertnbers of 8t
Helens 1l. A. who deserved prizes at
the late county match, and Alen that
members received those prizes know-
ing they belonged to others. He also
states that if lit. Helens R. A. had or
has any Rrievapre the proper way was
to have it scut to the officers of the
Association. This was certainly the
proper way to do. But 1s there much
satisfaction in doing that, when the
prizes are awarded and handed over ?
Are they going to call in those
wrongly .weeded prizes and hand
them over to those to whom they
belong ?
The proper way was to he sure that
lists were right before prizes were
given out. This is all that any mem-
ber of lit. Helens K. A. finds fault
with. They do nut nor ever did think
that it vias wilful on the part of
officers, or that any member received
a prize that he knew did not helloing to
him. But they do biome the officers
for not considering St. Helens score
list at all, because there woe- no one
'interested [.here to bring it before
them. As stated in the article referied
to, it was mentioned at the meeting
when the question of tyro list was
spoken of that 8t. Helens and Lochalsh
teams were all tyros. This could very
enmity have been verified bymany of
the members present and aso by some
of the officers who were there to the
end of the meeting and who knew
St. Helens team bed gone home.
