ELECTRIC FIRE ALARMS.
In order to provide against the emergency of fire, Mr Frank Watts, the proprietor of the Imperial Hotel, New Plymouth, has just fitted a system of electric bells throughout his house, so that in case of an outbreak the night porter can set the alarms going in every room simultaneously. It is believed to be the first house in the colony to adopt the system.
