Plans for one of the attractlons of Merchants® week here this week, the demonstration by the fire departmant, have been outlined by Fire Chief How- ard L. Stanton and the fire commis- sioners, which will bring a type of fire apparatus new to Norwich before the public. This is the combination motor driven pumping engine, chemical and hose wagon, which is made by the American La France company. It js expected that they will send one of this typeof modern fire a n{mtue here by Thursday, which is the day on ‘which the fire department demonstra- tion has been placed, although it was originally thought that it would be on ‘Wednesday. Between 10-and 11 o’clock on Thurs- day morning Chief Stanton will have & demonstration of water throwing in Union square, which is the place best adapted for both the public and the firemen. He has not yet decided whether he will call out the depart- ment by a regular fire alarm or have those who are to participate in the demonstration assemble in some other way. Last year the showing by the fire- men was the most popular thing that was done in the way of attractions during Merchants’ week and it is sure to_call out a crowd again this time, There will be police on hand to hold the crowd within proper lines so that no one need get wet down, but Chief Stanton issues the advice that the best place to stand is over by the Cen- tral Baptist church, as the apparatus will be at work in Broadway and in the center of the square. When the water gets to shooting around, some- body is lable to get wet if the crowd shifts positions and does not stay somewhere near the place where they first take their stand. The fire department demronstration is one of the events arranged for through 'the committee on municipal attrac- tions which consists of William A. Somers, chairman; D, T. Shea, H. M. Lerou, J. D. Haviland, S. Alpheus Gil- bert, H. R. Woodward and S. E. Ma- chette, Other Special Attractions. Three other special attractions ar- ranged for the week are the special shows at the three theaters, at the uniform time of 1.30 p. m. at each, Tuesday at the Auditorium, Thursday at the Colonial and Friday at the Da- vis.

First Edition Brought Next to Record Price at Phalidelphia Book Sale. A first edition of John Mason’s ‘Pequot War” was purchased by Garrett W, F. Blanchfield at Hartford street antiquarian, for the next to record price of $1,076 at a recent book sale in Philadelphia. Mr. Blanch- field went to Philadelphia, especially to bid on the pamphlet. There was spirited bidding which steadily push- ed the price up from the $300 at which it opened to the high purchase price. Mr. Blanchfield made the pur- chase for a wealthy Hartford man interested in rare books but whose identity is withheld. - The pamphlet is extremely rare and contains only twenty-two pages, mak- ing the value of each page according to the price paid for it $48.86. The work is a brief history of the memora- ble taking of the fort of the Pequot Indians at Mystic in 1637. It was written by one of the found- ers of Norwich, Major John Mason, commander-in-chief of the Connecti- cut forces, and published in 1736, Ma- son, who came from Windsor, orlgin- ally, was in command of the expedi- tion from the river towns of Hart- ford, Windsor and Wethersfield. Some years, later, the town of Hartford gace to the soldiers in the expedi- tion a tract of land in the north part of the city which was known as the Soldiers’ field. No Thirst on This Trip! The expedition sailed from Hart- ford in three boats, Among the stores they took with them was a hogshead of sack. There was also a command of about twenty men at Saybrook under the command of Lieutenant Lyon Gardner, who com- manded the fort at Saybrook. There are now two know copies of this pamphlet in Connecticut in perfect condition. The - other of these is in the library of the Con- necticut Historical society. The highest price - paid for this pamphlet was for the copy in the famous Hoe sale, in 1911, which sold for $1.850. The copy belong- ing to Wilberforce Eames, librarian of the Astor library, sold for $800. This copy, however, was imperfect. The Connecticut Historical = so- clety’s copy is the finest known. Expert’s Opinion. Albert C. Bates, librarian of the His- torical society said of the pamphlet: “The first edition reprint of this book was made in 1769, in a .volume relating to a controversy over the Mo- hican lands. This volume is now as scarce as_the original publication of the pamphlet. The fine copy own- ed by the Historical society is the identical copy from which this reprint ‘was made. It was again reprinted in Boston in 1837, and since that' time ‘has been reprinted. twice.” “The last time it was reprinted several histories of the war were printed together with the accounts of Mason, Underhill, Vincent and Gardner. The original manuseript of the Gardner narrative is in_the possession of Trinty college. It is not, however, in the handwriting of Cardner, as it was commonly be- lieved to be.” Dr." Jordan of the Pennsylvania Historfcal soclety said in an inter- view printed in the Philadelphia Record of April 21, “It is one of the most tempting morsels for the book- lovers in American historical liter- ature. ‘The narrative is the main source for the facts concerning one of the most important episodes in early New England history, detailing the astounding attack of seventy- seven Englishmen, led by Major Ma-~ son, against 700 Pequot Indian: war- riors, strongly protected behind a palisade of uu trunks. Indians escaped. “It was Prmum.ny the end of the Pequot nation. This remarkable epi- sode removed the chief obstacle of the colonization of the Connecticut coast, and brought the inland settlements in- to an unimpeded communication with those on tidewater.” Schooling at 15 Cents Per-Week.
