Fire Department.


There is a new and more general interest in the fire department since the great con- flagrations at Chicago and Boston, and especially since the dangerous fire in Springfield, February 6, in the Massachu- setts Life Insurance Company's block. The skill and presence of mind of the Chief En- gineer, the hearty co-operation of his assist- ants, and the noble work of the men, on that occasion, as well as at other times, are gratefully remembered.


One hundred and forty-one men are in the service of this department, and the ma- jority are young and unmarried. Six for each steamer are required to sleep in the engine-houses, and care is taken to provide for each company in its building a pleasant and attractive parlor and comfortable sleep- ing and bath-rooms. There are two double and three single steam fire engines, two hook and ladder trucks, one hand engine,

two horse hose and six hand hose carriages, a chemical fire extinguisher, a fire alarm telegraph, nine horses, and 7,200 feet of hose. New hydrants have been set the past year, and the projective force of those on Main street has been doubled by increased supply of water. Horses are kept har- nessed, and are instantaneously released by mechanical device when an alarm sounds, so as to step in front of the engine ready to run. Steam is hastened by patent appli- ances, and every advantage gained to get at a fire as soon as possible. With what suc- cess this has been accomplished, appears from the fact that although many more fires than usual broke out in the city last year, a very large proportion of them did but little damage. A handsome addition to the en- gine liouse, on Pynchon street, is soon to be erected, 40 by 80 feet, which is more fully described on a preceding page.

52


SPRINGFIELD CITY DIRECTORY.


once to the bottom of the slot, and let go. This gives the desired alarm all over the city, repeating the number of the box five times Remain by the box a moment after giving the alarm, and if no clicking is heard in the box, pull again; if you still hear no clicking, go to the next nearest box and give the alarm from that. Be sure the box is locked before leaving it. The box is of iron, and double, and the inner one is in- accessible, except to those in charge of the telegraph, and the Chief Engineer. One single stroke of the City Hall bell and en- gine-house gong is not given for an alarm of fire. Alarms will be sounded on the fire bells thus : For box 5, five strokes, 1-1-1-1-1, with short intervals, and re- peating. For box 32, three strokes, 1 - 1 - 1, a pause, then two strokes, 1 - 1, a pause, and repeating. Alarms for other numbers are given in like manner.


CAUTION .- Never pull the hook while the bell or gong in the box is striking. Never touch the hook except to give an alarm of fire. Never signal for a fire at a distance, nor for a chimney. Inform yourself of the location of boxes and keys near you. Keys are in possession of responsible citizens near each box, and the police and Board of En- gineers of the Fire Department.
