This is a matter that we are pleased to see engaging the attention of the mayor, for aboveall el3e nothing is so impor tant as a full and efficient fire department. , The present companies are well spoken cf by. their chief as willing, and even eager to do all they can to assist in keeping up their different com pany organixations. They are all well officered, and if- assisted with the . necessary repairs and conveniences, and have the support of the town, as they should, no doubt need exist as to their doine their duty when their , services are re quired. They will need now about five hundred feet of good leather hose to each engine to make them useful at fires distant from a large supply .. of vrater.
