TaE Z" MONS NEW REELS AND TRUCK
The members Of Steam Engine Company No.
] (Union) yesterday housed their new hose
carriage, just finish, by Mpssrs. Mcdonnell
4 mcDade, and they are highly pleased with
1t The carriage has spool of Sufficient ca
psCity TO carry one thousand feet of hose. set
on four springs, and has four large wheels,
snd has all the modern improvements, inclu-
cling checks TO both wheels and spool, which
are easily worked from the drivers seat The
material, iron and wood, is OF the best quality
and while il is devoid of all superfious decora-
tons, it is substantial in its structure, and
striped with black and delicate line OF white
and the iron work black. The carriage has a
comfortable seat for the driver, with wire
work basket beneath for tools, &c. 1t is IN
tended to be drawn by one horse, but has a
tongue ready 70 be attached should il be deter
mined TO run IL with two horses: and il is
thought by some, should IL be determined to
attach step behind il, so that four men NAV
ride on IL, that this will be necessary Taken
altogether, ii Is one of the best pie ces of work
OF the kind yet seen in this city. and is credita-
bic alike 10 the builders, the city, and the fire
commissioners.
The first new reel ordered for the paid de-
partment was built by Ives, of Baltimore but
when the second appropriation for three hose
reels and truck of $3.50 was made the chief
ers, feeling sure that Washington mechanics
could do as good work as could be done any-
where else, made contract with the firm
above named for the reels, and with Mr. G. r.
Hall for the truck. The other reels and truck
are well under way, and doubtless the work
VIII be as good and substantial as that Just
turned out.

with keeping gambling house at the corner
OF eth and ID SITS Mr.. Norris appeared for the
defense The prosecuting witness had been pres
ent but said his wife was. lying very ill, and he
left the Central Guardhouse before the Justice
arrived The only evidence was that of the
Odcer who made the arrest, which amounted
10 very little. The only articles Obtained al the
room OF the accused, that looked like ANYTHING
pertaining 10 a gambling house, were single
pack OF cards and a cribbage board, which are
articles IN common use with young ladies and
gentlemen in this. as we'll as other large cities
Justice Thompson said he would like TO nave
the evidence OF the complainant, as certainly
there was none given that would Justify him in
holding the case for court. 1t is necessary in
sustaining charge OF this sort 10 show THAI
me accused Is the proprietor at n house kept
IOr gambling purposes, that the apparatus for
ambling Is kept there. and that II is a place of
resort for gamblers. He decided TO dismiss the
case with the understanding that If the prose-
cutting witness shall appear hereafter to prose-
