FIRE LADDIEs WIN.
Hot Time at Condon's Stables Last Night
Horses Rescued-Good Work Done.

Hot Time at Condon's Stables Last Night
Horses Rescued-Good Work Done.
While Edward Condor, proprietor of
the Maple avenue livery stables, was
conversing with friends at 745 o'clock
last night in his Office, Miss Lizzie
Murphy rushed in asking that an alarm
be turned in as Mulhall's stable, located
in the rear and adjoining Condon's
stables, was on fire. Mulhall's barn
burned like tinder box and it was with
difficulty that the horses, nine in num-
ber, were removed. An opening of less
than three feet separated this barn from
Condon's extensive two story building to
which the flames had communicated
when the department arrived, making
blaze that lighted up that section of the
city. The fire department scored another
big victory over the fire by confining the
flames to the rear of Condon's stables,
extinguishing the flames in what was
left Of Mulhalls barn and saving the
Ambrose house, and several dwellings in
the rear. Mr.. Condor had twenty nine
horses in his stables, twenty boarders
and d'nine belonging to him, all Of which
were safely removed, though with con-
siderable difficulty. The avenue was
filed with carriagesof every description,
harness and horse clothing which had
been hurriedly removed. The heat was
intense, blistering the faces and hands of
the iremen and several lengths of hose.
After twenty minutes hard work the
flames were under control, and by 9
o'clock the fire was out. Ex-Foreman
Pierson of Independent Hose was slightly
injured by falling beam.
Condon's loss on building and contents
will probably reach $1,000; insured,
MulhalIs loss is also covered by insur-
ance. The origin of the fire is mystery.

and the competition will be keen and
exciting. Contests for tandems, four-in-

UNIQUE ART GALLERY.
Interesting Collection of War Pictures on
MIR. -Cihlar's Walls.

Interesting Collection of War Pictures on
MIR. CihIar's Walls.
Doubtless there are many persons in
Morristown as patriotic as Frank Cihlar,
whose place of business is at27 Washing
ton street, but none followed the move
ments Of the army and navy in the war
with Spain more closely, nor took more
lively interest in events relating thereto
than this gentleman. Mr.. Cihlar was
not satisfied to read the various stories
that appeared in print, but occupied the
nights with arranging on the walls of his
establishment a series of war pictures
and those of the leading commanders in
the army and navy.
The idea is certainly novel one and
has caused considerable comment by Mr..
Cihlar's patrons and others, as well as
afforded them some pleasure. When in
doubt as to the location of some particu-
lar part of the province of Santiago, or
the waters in which American or Spanish
vessels were cruising, visit to this
unique art gallery would result in giving
the information desired, in manner
perhaps as conclusive as might have been
obtained from the Strategy Board at
Washington.
Mr.. Cihlar is an admirer of Admiral
Dewey particularly, and while the like
ness Of every commanding officer Of any
Importance claims a place on the walls,
pictures of the hero of Manila Bay are
to be seen showing him in various atti-
tudes and at almost every age since his
birth. Conspicuously displayed near the
entrance is a copy of the CHRONICLE
extra, which announced to Morristown
people the victory in the Philippines.
When the walls Of Mr.. Ghlar's place
are vanished, as he purposes to have
done, the pictures will stand in years to
come as realistic reminder Of the war
in which our soldiers and sailors ac-
quilted themselves with great credit, to
the utter humiliation Of the Spanish
army and navy. Mr.. Cihlar was a
soldier himself, having served six years
| in the Austrian army. He was in the
Austria Prussian war of 1866 and saw q
year of hard service. He came to this
country twenty-seven years ago and
since that time has lived in MorristoWn.

FIRE MONDAY NIGHT.
DR.. UebeIacker's Barn on South Street
Burned to the Ground.

Dr. UebeIacker's Barn on South Street
Burned to the Ground.
The fire department was called out
at 10 o'clock Monday night when
the barn of DIR. A. Uebelacker on South
street was discovered to be in flames.
Although the firemen responded prompt
" the building could not be saved.
There was good water supply and the
department through hard work pre-
vented the fire from communicating to
the barn of John Thatcher, which
was Immediately adjoining.
The blaze was discovered by DR..
Uebelacker's coachman, who was sitting
in the barn reading. AS the fire started
in the top of the building there is no
theory of its origin. A quantity of
grain and hay and straw was destroyed.
The horses and carriages wee saved. 1t
is thought that SO 900 will cover the loss.
This and other fires have prompted
citizens to ask why the Independent hose
carriage is not brought into use. It can
get the quickest stream without the aid
of an engine, and might be the means
some time of preventing big conhagra-

Of some boys ambition. Nightwatch-

CLEAN UP THE STREETS.
The Subject May Be Chestnut, But One
Worth Opening.

We cannot refrain from making an

part of each individual citizen would
make such a marked difference in the
general effect which our city produces
on strangers who are here but for day.
Remaining longer the visitor is I'M

ing the way; old tin cans, papers, etc..
scattered promiscuously abroad and
everything in disorder. All these small
matters, be they ever so trivial to those
who are accustomed to viewing them,
give the city an untidy appearance.
The cities, such as Denver, which are
noted for their pretty, clean streets.
employ men who go through them every
night, removing every scrap which has
collected during the day and sweeping
the pavement. A place the size of The
Dalles could not be expected to do any
thing of this kind; but each Individual
owner of property can do his part.
Suppose every merchant should make it
his business to see that the sidewalk ana
street around his place of business is
carefully cleaned and the scraps of pa
per, etc, removed every morning, what
different looking business streets we
should have. 1t would require but
few moments of the porter's time, and
not only add to the general appearance
of the city, but to the attractiveness of
his particular store. Any purchasers
would naturally expect to find the best
goods at the neatest looking place.
Can we not prevail upon our citizens
to study this matter over and decide to
make an effort along this line?
