that is the signals to direct ta the loca

department and the citizens to depend
upon a; general alarm.' 'Much valuable

ward signs of its whereabouts.- ' "

the Southeast Ward, or No. that be
tween South Main street and Patton Av
enue as Southwest Ward, or No. 2;.. and
that between Patton Avenue and Merri-
mon street and North Main street as
Northwest .Ward or No; 4-' No in case
of a firo alarm let the bell be struck
rapidly- at first - Jhen, if the alarm is in
Ward No. 1, strike one several times at
measured intervals - Then repeat the
rapid ringing for a minute, then repeat
the single strokes, v So for .each ward,
according to the occasion. This plan will
