A BEATER TEsx,—The Clinton "New

Ronald Werke, of Brussels :—The under.
writers wrote to the clerk flaying that if
the beater used to keep the water in the
fire engine warm, was euffioient to en•
able the engine to make 100 pounds of
steam in five minutes, horn the time the
engine was ran out, that the heater would
be eatlefaotoeyto the requirements. On
Monday night a test was made. One
person timing it found a record of 75
pounds Of steam in five minutes, while
another found 105 pounds in 51s• minutes.
The chief engineer, however, thinks the
tett was not a fair one. ale contends
that if the engine had started to throw
water when it had 25 pounds of steam on
that the additional draft would have run

Pose received a brief bnt juicy note from
Hematite, Washington Territory, 0. S.,
which read as follows :—"Dear air and
friend,—I now send you a five -Spot to re-
new my Bubsoriptian to Tan Peer. Ex-
cuse me for not having made the remit-
tance a little earlier. I remain, yours
respectfully, Jacob Schnook." Excuse
yon, Jacob 1 Why Nees your big Ger-
man heart, you don't owe ns an apology,
as yen were paid up to last January and
now vee date your address label up to

prosper it is not because he isn't as
straight as a string, 0 1 Ye waybaohs,
who think au editor never requires any
money, and to whom duns are like water
on a duck's beak, read the above and
imitate the beautiful and worthy example
set. If a newspaper man had many sub-
soribere like Mr. Schnook, he perhaps
would never want to go to heaven, but by
being kept poor, however, they are likely
to be kept humble. The gentleman re-
ferred to above was a format resident of
the nth con. of Grey township. We
hope he will never know what it is to

saurkraut and all the other luxuries of
life will adorn his pathway if the police
will allow the former right of way in

the partition between the kitchen and
pantry where the stovepipe passed
through and quickly made its way inside
toward the roof and for a time it looked
like a forlorn hope but thanks to the
Ronald steamer, it once more asserted its
ability as a fire fighter and put a stop to
the fire. The building was badly damaged
and the furniture, &o., also suffered con•
siderably by the hasty removal and from
