He hurried along the pathway and saw that the two men were mvmg him. He quickened his Ppace, “his followers did ' likewise. He then started off on a run, and as he did so he heard three distinct reports of a revolver and heard the shots whis- tle as they passed him. 4 Spizeto_ did not step running until he reached the home of Pasquale Ter- ranoverand told of his experience. Mrs. Terranover had heard the shots and recalled baving seen two colored men a short distance from her home about an; hour “after she heard the three sharp reports of a revolver. No description could be obtained of the "two men except that they were both colored but that the larger of the two was the darkest skinmed. Chief Brown and his pgsee, which .included ssveral quarrymen, besides the offi- cers, searched in the woqds and along the ways in the secflon, but were -unable to locate the men. - . ardly had Chief Brown returned to Westerly from ‘Bradford when there wae & genuine holdup in keeping with the bold highway daylight work which has been carried on at intervals for the t three years. Frank Costanza, .& Westerly fruit peddler, was driving | on.the public highway a short distance the village of Bradford, on the Homeward trip, when he-was stopped by.three masked men, each armed wiih a revolver, and relieved of about $2650. He was then ordered to drive on, under cover of a revolver, and threatened with death if he looked backward. The holdup was in a wood- ;ed ‘section of the road. While two of the highwaymen searched Costanza and took his. money, the other pointed a reolver at him and at the same time close watch in both directions. B za made a report of.the robbery Jjust es quickly as possible and a posse | headed by Constable Thompson made ; an unsuccessful hunt. This is the third ‘holdup pulled off in the Bradford sec- tion of the town of Westerly In the last four days. I | | The property in Canal street owned by . Charies D.

The required automobile chassis is to be purchased and the body- of a _horse-drawn hose wagon attached thereto, which can be done- for $2,000, while the average cost of regular built motor hose wagons range from $4,500 to $5,500. If the experi- ment proves a success in Providence, | the other.hose wagons will .be made over aiong the same line, and the re- | sult will be thg complete motorization of the fire department. v .
