3 3< Manchester x | 
Joseph Crateau, a young lad of 3 
years, hada close call from drowning * 
this morning. With Edward Goldth- 
waite he went in swimming at Black 
Beach, alongside the West Manchester 
station about ten o’clock. He evidently 
went out beyond his depth for he was 
seen to throw up his arms and sink, by 
George Sanborn, baggage master at the 
railroad station. Sanborn and Ned 
Johnson, coachman for the S. V. R 
Crosbys hurried to the beach, pushed off 
a boat and went to the spot where the 
boy went down. ‘They could see only 
one of the lads arms among the sea weed 
in six feet of water. They pulled him 
from the water and sent hurry calls ,for 
the doctors. Dr. Tyler was the first to 
arrive. Sanborn and Johnson and others 
meanwhile had worked over the uncon- 
scious form of the boyand he had regained 
consciousness. He was hurried to his 
home on Vine street in an automobile by 
by Arthur Merrian and at last accounts 
was getting over the effects of the acci- 
dent. 
Following a morning of sweltering 
heat, under which even the _hardiest 
could not help complaining, a refreshing 
thunderstorm broke over Manchester and 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE. 
the North Shore late thisafternoon, giv- 
ing the parched ground a much-needed 
soaking and longed for comfort indoors 
and out. On the farms along the Shore, 
the rain was especially appreciated as it 
was sorely needed to put the crops in 
proper condition for harvesting. 
New Compressed Air Fire Alarm 
Whistle Installed. 
Within the last week the fire alarm 
whistle at Manchester has been moved 
from its location at the pumping station 
to the tower of the engine house in the 
center of the town. In making the 
change the vote of the town was carried 
out, to the effect that a compressed air 
system be installed. This has been done 
and in so doing Manchester has taken 
another step in providing itself with an 
up-to-date equipment.- 
A room in the corner of the engine 
house, formerly used for storage, has 
been fitted up and in this the compressing 
equipment has been installed. This con- 
sists of three large tanks, one of which 
is used directly for the whisle, and the 
other two as reserve pressure tanks. 
It was planned at first to install electric 
motor as power, but on account of the 
price which the local company was go- 
ing to charge for this, it was thought 
best to install-a water motor. 
So a Pelton Water Wheel was put in. 
This is set on a concrete foundation. 
39 
The water which passes into the 
“‘wheel’’ passes through a 5-8 inch 
nozzle. The motor is self operating. 
When the pressure in the tank, which 
is set to 110, drops to 95 the governor 
starts the motor and the motor runs ten 
or fifteen minutes until the pressure is 
brought back to 110, and it stops itself 
automatically. Under ordinary condi- 
tions at the present time the motor 
would have to ‘‘get in its work’’ about 
once every thirty hours. It requires 
absolutely no attention. — It is self oiling 
and the man in charge of installation 
told the BREEZE man a few days ago that 
the door might be locked and the ma- 
chinery left to itself for six months. 
The tank is guaranteed to be good for 
100 blasts, but will under ordinary con- 
ditions go to 150. The whistle will 
sound at 45 lbs pressure, but to get the 
best results it should.be 75 to 100. 
The same whistle as used before is in- 
stalled with the new equipment. ‘This 
is an eight-inch chime whistle. It is 
claimed that a 45 lb. air pressure will do 
the service of 75 pounds of steam, as in 
the case of steam the condensation inter- 
feres with the tone of the whistle. 
The system installed is known as the 
R. W. LeBaron system. ‘The contract 
price with Mr. LeBaron was $2175. 
Take it.to Loomis, he’ll fix. it. *
