THE BUILDING NAUGURATED.

On the 4th day of July. 1908, the build
ing was formally inaugurated. The Tammany
Society is doubtless the oldest purely self
constituted political organization in the
world. and has certainly been by far the most
influential. Beginning with the Government
for il was organized within a fortnight
after tho Inauguration of the first
President, and at a spot within the
sound of his voice as he spoke his
first official words 20 his countrymen. it has
not only continued down TO the present time
through nearly three centuries of men-but
has controlled the choice of at least one
President, fixed the character Of several
national as well as State administrations,
given pseudonyms TO half dozen we'll
known organizations and, in fact. has shaped
the destiny of the country in several turning
points OF its history. Few suspect, much less
comprehend the extent of the influence this
purely local association has exerted 70 its
agency, more than any other, is due the facts
that for the last three-quarters OF a century
New York has been the most potent political
center in the world not even Paris excepted,
Had il not been for the conduct of certain in
tdividuals claiming 70 control the organization
lammany would to-day dictate the political
destinies Of the nation,

A Hot Blaze at the Rubber.

A flash of flame from beneath one of the five boilers which make steam for shop No. l of the Rubber company, the lower Rubber, set fire to the waste oil which accumufates upon the stone flag ging and burned fiercely till the whole interior was ablaZe, the roof ruined and much damage done to the oil pump, pip ing and boiler gauges. About g m, Fireman Thomas Neanor was startled by blaze on the floor, which a pail of sand, kept near for such an emergency, failed to extinguish. He sounded the alarm, shut off the oil from such of the boilers as he could and escaped, closely followed by the sea of flame. Superin- tendent Hugh Campbell chanced to be in the yard as MT Neanor rushed around the corner of the engine house. He ran to the wheel house and, in few minutes, had the fire pumps running and several streams of water playing upon the blaze.
 By this time, the packing was burned out of the pumps and piping, placed to connect the boilers with the oil feed, so that considerable oil had flowed to the floor to feed the flames, which shot to the roof and through the doorways and windows with an intense heat. In an in- stant, the roofing, dry as finder from years of exposure to the heat of the huge boilers, was in flames, but the many streams playing upon it checked the fire, though it scarcely checked the blaze on the floor, the oil floating on the water in a sea of fire. A pile of sand, used in re- pairs about the shop during the Winter was conveniently near and this was thrown through the doorway, near which the fiercest fire ragged on the floor. The fire was got under control in less than an hour from the time the alarm sounded, but, had it occurred during the night, there is little doubt but that the entire factory would have burned to the ground.
 Fireman Neanor is to be commended for his coolness in so trying a position and many of the men faced danger in battling with the flames and showed coolness and daring. ''The men did well and worked with will,' said MT Camp bell, after the fire, land are worthy of much praise.'' The laugh is on some jo- cose lad who amused himself by playing on the ruins from the basement, for Foreman John Graham turned the stream on the would-be fireman, giving him drenching. No sooner had the building cooled, than machinists were at work re- placing burned packing and placing new water gauges, expecting to have every thing in running order with but little de- lay, as the boilers received no harm, be- ing plentifully drenched with water when the fire broke out. The company is heavily insured in half score or more companies and the loss will doubtless come within S1OOO, much less, probably, than that caused by the delay due to repairs. The company are to be congratulated upon such fortunate escape from disastrous fire. New gauges, pipes and all burned parts of the boilers were telephoned for.
