l’“. The second motor-driven fire ap- paratus for the Westerly Fire district, ‘to be assigned to the Rhode Island Ones, is expected to arrive here today. {This machine is not of the combina~ tion type, but simply a hose wagon, while the Cyclone wagon has chemi- cal tank and hose as well as fire hose carrying capacity. The Rhode Island Ones’ wagon is an entirely new, fire- fighting outfit. It is planned by the ‘dbuilders to take this apparatus to Put- nam for demonstration, before formal Gdl‘ver, to the Westerly fire district, and also to have it inspected by the committee of the Watch Hill fire dis- trict who are authorized to purchase motor-#Miven fire apparatus at a price not in excess of $1,500. A ma- chine such as the Cyclone cannot be at that price, but it is be- ieved, with a recommendation from “the committee, an adequate appropri- ation would be made. The builders of the Westerly motor- driven apparatus have completed a high-powered machine for the city of Ansonia, about double the power of the local machines, and it is planned to have this machine remain in Wes- terly for a day or two, before pro- ©oeeding to Ansonia. The representa- tive of the company says the engine of the Ansonia machine is identical with that of the triple action machine in New London, and is.furnished with high power so as to be able to ascend the many steep hills in_Ansonia at high speed. The Watch Hill fire dis- trict committee will therefore have an opportunity to inspect the chem- ical hose wagon and the hose wagon of the Westerly district, as well as the more powerful apparatus that is to become a part of the Ansonia de- partment. ‘Albert Ptatt, who volunteered his assistance in the removal of a piano from the Star theatre, on the eve of July Fourth, two years ago, and was killed by the piano toppling from the wagon and pinning Mr. Platt to_the und in West Broad street, left a idow and several children and they bsequently removed from Pawcatuck Fall River. The sudden death of a mon, named Albert for his father, and seven years of age, ocourred in Fall River Monday afternoon. The press report of the, fatality says: “Albert, the 7-year-old son of Mrs. Annie Platt of 23 Otto street, Fall River, was run over by an electric train ‘and instantly killed Monday af- ternoon at the Slade’s ferry bridge, Fall River. The body was badly man- slod. “The boy was trapped on the trestle as the train bound for Providence came around a sharp curve at a rapid rate of speed, and had no chance to save his life’ The lad was walking along the track when Motorman Charies Bosworth saw him a snort distance ahead. The emergency ‘brakes were applled, but it was too late to avoid the accident, “The train that hit the boy was due to leave Fall River at 4 o'clock and was five minutes late pulling out of the station. Motorman Bosworth ‘was making up time when the accident oocurred. The train was quickly brought to a stop. Conductor Asa Al- len and Motorman Bosworth lifted the mangied body from beneath the trucks of the coach and placed it in the bag- gage car_and it was taken back to the Fal River station, “Medical Bxaminer Thomas F. Gun- ping. of Fall River viewed the body. He pronounced death due to accident, and gave permission for burial” The body will be brought to Wes- terly today (Thursday) for burial at River Bend. The census bureau has just issued a bulletin in estimates of population, for the years 1910, 1911, 191! ;‘ 1913 and 1914 and gl'el these figures for the years in their order: Westerly, 8,720, 8,837, 8,954, 9,071 ard 9,188; Stoning- ton, 9,167, , 9,201, 9,353 'and 9,415 New London, 19,704, 19,017, 20,130, 340, 20,657; Norwich town, 28,260, L! - 243, 23,646, 28,839 and 29,032; Norwich city, 28,260, 28,463, 28,646, 28,839 and It is apparent that the figures pre- sented are to be considered as a cen- sus, or based upon an extended inves- tigation of local conditions that may effect the growth of a municipality. The so-called arithmetical method was adopted for computing the estimates of population. It is the simplest and has been demonstrated to come nearer to accuracy in the majority of cases than any other formula. It rests on the assumption that the inerease each year since the enumeration is equal MRS, LYON'S 'AGHES AND PAINS Have All Gone Since’ Taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg- Terre Hill, Pa—* Kmdly permit me %o give you my testimonial in favor of Lydia E. Pinkham’s | Vegetable Com- pound. WhenI first began taking it I was suffering from female troubles for some time and had almost all kinds of aches—pains inlow- . er part of back and in sides, and press- ing down pains.

From the roots and. of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham, years ago, gave to womankind for their peculiar ills which has proved more efficacious than any bination of drugs ever com- gnndad. and today Lydia Pinkhinn ; ‘egetable Compound is recognize from coast to coast as the standard remedy for woman’s ills.
