in the Fire Department
Mettcri of interest to and about the firemer
in our local department
by H. E. P.
Amityville is <)uite excited for a while over the water pressure furnish¬ ed at the llrunawicfc Home fire, ^st ^week's Amityville Kecord giving about five Columns to it. It seems that the contract with the private company furnishing the water, calla for, accord¬ ing to this paper, "pressure for fire purposes equal to the pressure of a column of water aeventy feet in height, and it calla fur this pressure at the hydrant." The same paper states that with twu one-inch nozzles they were urable tu Chrow a stream ten feet beyond the nozzle. Municipal plant ia gotnJ enoogh fur us yet a while, isn't it'.'
Secured your ticket yet for the sec¬ ond annual dinner of the department to be beld Tuesday evening. December 17, in Bruoklyn Hull'.' They may be secured from any member of the com¬ mittee ami may be secured by any present or past members of the Free- port Fire Department. Of courae we can't promise what this year's afTair will be, but if it is as succeaaful as last year's, and it haa a majority of the same committee, it will be be well worth your while tu attend.
Call Gl at (') o'clock Sunday after¬ noon took the fire department to the residence of Charles Bedell on Bay View Avenue, just sout,h of the rail¬ road track. Various causes are given for the firo, the most reasonable one of which seema that Mr. Bedell, who is a very aged man, had eloaed his fii-e up and then dozed off, and the atove be¬ coming overheated, had set (ire to the room. The fire was discovered by neighbors who carried Mr. Bedell oBt ill a semi-conscious condition, and sent in the alarm, and when tho firemen ar¬ rived the whole interior of the building was ablaze.
Three streams were used, and the recall sent in about 40 minutes later, but the building was an almost total loss. Damage to building Si^OO; furni¬ ture ?200; no insurance.
A Mr. Cilmore, manufacturer, occu¬ pied the second (loor of the houae, but was not at home when the fire started.
I will try and give the order of tbe three first conipanies arriving in an- swjr to an alarm of fire hereafter. If I'm wrong, don't heaitate a minute to tell me ao. Sunday Hoae 4 waa firat. Hose 2 second, and Trucki.l thiril.
Another Sunday (ire. It is a pecul¬ iar fact that four out of the last six fires have been on a Sunday, and each of them was a destructive one.
Thirty-two members of Hoae Com¬ pany No. 1 enjoyed a tri^) to the N. Y. Hippodrome VVednesday evening, leav¬ ing here i^n the 6:46 train and return¬ ing on the "owl." All report a very pleasant time and insist that the Chief of Police, who accompanied them, did not go in that ofticiai capacity. Theae theatre trips of Hose I have become a yearly occurrence, and are alwaya louked forwatd to by their membera.

On Friday evening last the "Merry Makeri" favored Tinothy Sheehan with a surprise party. The costomes of his guests were unique ; and fur the usual refreshments of dainty sand¬ wiches, cake and coffee, were substi¬ tuted frankfurters and rolla. A feat¬ ure of the evening's entertainment was the rendering by John Powers, of a recitation entitled "Mary's Little Lamb and Other Pets." A male trio (impromptu) selection was also en¬ joyed.

Those who attended the Epworth League business and social rneeting on Wednesday of last week, were very much intereated in the "Human Check¬ erboard." White aheets of paper pinned to the carpet, in a large square space, formed tbe board upon which tbe human checkers were arranged. The appearance was very pleasing, with tbe young ladies in their bright colored dresses at one side of the board tu represent the light checkers and the gentlemen at the other side, represent¬ ing tbe dark checkers, but when the players commenced to manipulate their men, they played havoc with appear¬ ances; jumping their opponents' men off the board, with no regard for his feelings or tliose of his human check¬ ers. Of the two gamea played, both were won by the girla, credit b'ing doe to Miss Annie Bedell, who played for them Another feature of the ev¬ ening's entertainment was a duct sung by Miss Nina Humphrey and Miss Knights.

OUR FIRE CALL NL'MBER.
.\t the meetine of the Village Hoard of Trustees on Friday evening, .Nuv. I 15, Chief Cornell requested the Village Board to take some action requiring that all fire calls be sent through No. 400, which is the direct call to tht ¦ power house, inatead of through No. TUO, which is the police tall, and which had been substitu'ed for 40i>, by the orders of somebody outside of the Fire Council, which is or should be the gov¬ erning body.
I resident Hanse, aeting aa spoke?- iiian for the ISoard, saiil that th'-y had nothing whatever to do with it; tbey had not given the order to change to loo and positively would rot g'we any orders to ch.nnpe to 400 again; that it was not up to them, and ihey would have nothing to do with it. The Chief was told t'hat it' he wanted Alto insttad of Ton,to be used, he must find nut wh'i was res|)onsihle for giving the order, and see if they would change it.
At the rneeting of the Fire Council the fnllowing Wednesday evening Mr. Ryder, representing the Telephone Co., appeared and cafefully explained the reason that the change had heen made. He said that the direct line from Pnlice Headijuarters to the Power House had been installed Ly direction of President Hanse. He agreed t<j make an ap¬ pointment with the members of the Council to test out the system. After the meetirg the meinbers of the ('oun¬ cii decided to test out the system theniselvis, and made a very thorough t st, in which they found that the. ditference in the tirne in sending in the alarm was just ahout the time it took to get the message from the Police Headi|uarters to the Power House. In i.tler words, sending the message through Felice Headi|uarters was about that much time lost, all other condi¬ tions being ec|ual. On F'riday, .N<.)v. '22 Chief Cornell received a letter from Vlr. Ryder, which said Ihat pursuant tn an oliicial notiee from the President nf the Villago of P'reeport, all tire calls frorn Nov. 2:i at '2 p. m. will tie eent over the old 4fi(i wire and the use of 7011 for such calls will he discontinued. This order was issued after the Coun¬ cil had voted, following the refusal of the Village Board to take any action, to try out the system thoroughly be¬ fore taking any definite action.
So, as it now stands, ityou have to send in a tire call, ask for l-reeport 40(1.
HIGH AND LOW SPEED ENGINFs! Speaking again ahout the proposi¬ tion as to whether high or low speed enginea are beat in our pumping sta¬ tion, 1 lecently read a letter from a prominent manufacturer in Brooklyn. He saya that about 12 yeara agn he in¬ stalled a high speed engine, fnr gen¬ eral work in his factory. After keep¬ ing it in for about 2 vears, he took it out and put in a low speed engine in its place. He says a high speed engine is now in hia cellar waiting for aome fool to come along and buy it. He aays the engire was thoroughly guar¬ anteed, but the guarantee was so tech¬ nical that it did not amount to any¬ thing when the engine proved unsatis¬ factory.
BAFFLES FOR TURKEY.
I respectfully submit to our Police authorities for consideration the order issued on Nov. 26 by John H. Kehoe, Commissioner of Police at Passaic, N. J., prohibiting the practice of raffling , ior turkeys and other fowl during the holiday seaaon. He takes the stand that these raffles come under the gam¬ bling law and that he has entire power to prohibit them. Speaking on the matter he is quoted by the New York Sun as saying:
"1 want to see more of the kiddies get turkey, and I feel that their chances of enjoying them on Thanks¬ giving, Christmas and New Years' days will be far better if their fathers are nut allowed to 'cake a chance' by throwing dice in a saloon," said Com¬ missioner Kehoe.
"Many men will go intu a saloon and attempt to win a bird by throwing dice, some of thein apending anywhere from one to three dollars without auc¬ ceas. Then they go home almoat 'broke' and their wivea and children go with¬ out the much longe<l for dinner,"
JUST A COMMA. Thc insertion of a comma in our item the week before Thanksgiving about the servicea of that day caused some embarrasament ur at least misuiider- atanding. We had an item regarding Union Thanksgiving Services of the Presbyterian, Methodist Episcopal and Baptist Churchea, and a comma was inadvertently inierted aitet the word Methodist, making it aeem that the Episcofial Church was also jtieeting with these uther churches. As a mat¬ ter ef fact, the Episcopal Church al¬ ways holds special Thanksgiving ser¬ vices in its own church, and did as us¬ ual this year.
Here is a new idea of simplified spelling which I noticed from one of our COI respondents this week where myself it speld myselph.

Call Gl at (') o'clock Sunday after¬ noon took the fire department to the residence of Charles Bedell on Bay View Avenue, just sout,h of the rail¬ road track. Various causes are given for the firo, the most reasonable one of which seema that Mr. Bedell, who is a very aged man, had eloaed his fii-e up and then dozed off, and the atove be¬ coming overheated, had set (ire to the room. The fire was discovered by neighbors who carried Mr. Bedell oBt ill a semi-conscious condition, and sent in the alarm, and when tho firemen ar¬ rived the whole interior of the building was ablaze. Three streams were used, and the recall sent in about 40 minutes later, but the building was an almost total loss. Damage to building Si^OO; furni¬ ture ?200; no insurance. A Mr. Cilmore, manufacturer, occu¬ pied the second (loor of the houae, but was not at home when the fire started.
