Its list of streams with a mark’ of+ 200 | feet or more, is one of the Tong- est of any hand sengine in existence its bestplay being $§u feet 6 1-2 inches, made September ., 1906, at Nashua, N. o¢ muster machines, with best plays ever made.: . . The tub is a 7 1-2 incil Hunheman, | and. was originally. 1he. Fountain,. No. 3,} of Lynn, and always bore the name of ‘Fountain until purchased by the Butler Veteran Firemen's association of Low- el in 1898. It was received by the city of Lynn -from its builders, October 13, 1839, ard’ cost §2200, which at that time wa's 'an _éxceptionally large.amount to pay ‘for a fire engine. It is the largest and one of “the most powerful hand en- gines ever built, made so for line, and tub and ‘tub playing. ‘It had a smaller Set”of cylinders for horizontal playing and duty. The machine was retired from service at Lynn-in 1865 and sold to Brattle- boro in 1865 for §360, which sold it to an’ independent muster organization in Milford, N.-H., April 25 1896, for $300. It ‘was purchased by the General Butler association of ' Lowell in March; 1898, and ‘has been used as’'a muster partici- pant by that association until it came in- to the possession: of the Westerly Vet- eran Firemen's association, which also owns ‘the side-stroke tub, Star. The City of LoweT has a long string of winnings . that aggregate upwards of $7500. While at Brattleboro it won sev- en prizes of $1525; at Waterville, one prize of $50; at Milford, two nrizes of $350; and the rest of the prize money has been won since becoming the, prop- erty of the General Butler veterans. In thé hand of the Westerly Vets. the City of - Lowell will be the only Hunneman tub in the regular musters. The Ocean No. 7, at Valley Falls, for- merly in active service in Providence during the days of the volunteer depart- ment, is also a Hunneman, but it is the property of the Lonsdale company, and is 4 muster contestant only occasionally, when the Valley Falls assocfation takes an active part in a state muster. Basil Bores Wood, librarian of the ‘Westerly Public Library, is not only gradually improving the system and gen- eral use of ‘that excellent institution, but is engaged in spreading the benefits'of the library to all sections of the big town. He has established a branch in the village of Bradiord, six miles from ‘Westerly and placed it in charge of a committee in no way connected with the village factions, and, barring the pos: office, the branch library is the ‘only place that is patronized by practically all the people. The library is located in the store, or basement of the Baptist parsonage, is open four evenings a week and in each of these evenings the read- ing room is filled, indicating that the ef- fort to furnish the villagers with good reading is appreciated. This store was ‘not in the best of con- dition when it was given over for li- brary purposes, but was painted and put In first-class. shape by Mr. Wood and some volunteer assistants, Mr. Wood leading in the actual painting and car- penter work.« Mr. Wood is putting in considerable overtime at the branch 1i- brary making’ it attractive and interest- ing-for the people of Bradford. He is a worker ‘from Workville, and only a few days .ago,” with a bag on his back con- taining carpenter tools, and carrying a large number of books. stranned -togeth- ervin‘each hand, he trudged to the rail- way station and went by train to Brad- ford‘ and busied himself until late night in' improving conditions at the Bradford branch library. There have been marked improvements in the West- erly libraty service he becamse librarian, and _the general usefulness of the insti- tution has increased materlally. * Locally, there are not a sufficient num- ber of active Civil war veterans to carry jon ‘the customary arrangements for Me- morjal Day. In consequence this worl has devolved unon the veterans of later wars, with George Leonard in charge. The grave of every soldier and sailor who served in the Civil and Spanish wars will be marked with a flag of the United States and on Memor\a! Day flowers will be placed on'the graves. The World ‘war men will this year pay like tribute to their comrades who have responded to the final roll call. Merril Post, American Legion, -will have - this new feature of Memorial Day in charge.
