OUR FIRE BRIGADE. --THE NEWS -
RECORD is not fault-finding when it
repeats that enough attention is not
paid our fire brigade by the powers
that be. The pay of these men is not
sufficient to have them study what is
required of them. Instead of a mere
pittance they should .be paid for the
work they do. A stated sum should
be named for every man for every
fire he attends. With alt due respect,
we contend .that the present brigade are
not well up ib fighting fire and that a
new order of things should be adopted.
If a system of waterworks is required
to grapple with ouch a matter, let our
representatives tache hold of the ques-
tion at the Council Board,

FAME ABROAD.—The March num-
NI' of Cycling, published in Toronto,
glee a, very • good picture of
George F. Emerson, and says
"Starting in the business five years
ago, Mr. Emerson bas each year
branched ont until now he is well Afln
favorably known among the wheehnen
of north-western Ontario. His boast
is that, havini, supplied his share of
the mounts in the past, he has men in
all sections of that portion of the
country, Huron county in particular,
who are willing to boort his business
at any and all times. Each of his pat-
rons is in fact an advertising medium
for hien. Like the cat in the song "they
all come back" when they desire to in-
vestinnew "hikes." The Clinton man's
repair business has kept pace with his
sales branch. He has a fully equipped
repair shop, in charge of well.-,pq tied
mechanics, and being himself}, of, a
mechanical turn of mind, he kr ws
when a "job," whether simple on diffi-
cult, is turned out right. It is srial1
wonder, therefore, that his repair( .rade
is now the largest in, Huron county.,'

FIRE. --Last Wednesday evening
shortly after ten o'clock the fire alarm
sounded and smoke was seen issuing
from Harland Bros. hardware store,
three doors north of TRE News -Ree
men office. In a very short time a
gocd stream of water was flowing
from Fair's mill and' this soon had
what threatened a serious conflagra-
tion in check. A few minutes later a
stream was playing from the market
and nil danger was averted. There
was about $500 dernage to the building,
the principal damage to stock being
from water and breakage. The fire
evidently originated in the cellar on
the opposite side to where the furttttce
is, and the cause is enshrouded in
rriy'stery. About 8.30 the premises
ware as usual inspected and there was
no sign of fire. The store was then
closed for the night. The building and
stock was insured in the Phoenix,
Northern, Caledonia and Lancashire.
Mr. Edwards, of Toronto, was here on
Friday and adjusted the riniins for all
companies to the satisfartion of all
concerned. Herlend Bros. have Mr-
ried insurance for over tltirt t years end
during that. time paid several thoant-

(Tenney of Reel, nearly 48 years ago
and. resided on the farm homestead
nearly all his life. Nearly a quarter

daughters to mourn their great loss.
Poor years since the deceased took a

FIRE AND 1`51 nny(F,- The fire last.
week brings to mind the fact tlutt the
171.1'1,^;writers Association in their t -e'
port would fain recognise the Wates•'
works systetu introduced tht•ough the
courtesy of Mr. .lamps Fair. At the
time THE NEWS -RECORD said the As-
sociation was very unreasonable and
the fire last Wednesday is still further
proof that we were right. The addi-
tional service, unrecognized by the Un-
derwriters, saved the seyeral Insurance
companies some hundreds of dollars
and probably thousands. The fire was
of such a nature that water was re-
quired at once to avert more serious
results. To Fair's mill is due the main
credit for the extinguishing of the fire
last Wednesday night.
