is expense for nothing, as the borough
pays two dollars to any team that pulls
the apparatus to and from fire. 1t
is very seldom that a fire will occur
on either side of the river that cam
not be handled easily, and to better ad-
vantage by one company; but in case
it should be a serious fire a second
alarm could be sent in for help. Then
the second company would quickly re-
spond. Two companies at any fire we
ever had in the borough, except the
Delaware and Hudson breaker fire,
would have been in the way of each
other and the work not as well done
as one company would do it. Let the
proper authorities take this matter up
and arrange some system for the fire
department and thereby save expense
and hard work and have better srvice.

OBITUARY..
Several Well Known Persons Pass
Into the Great Beyond.

Mr.. and Mrs. T. NJ. Tallman, of No.
l37 South Church street, received a
telegram yesterday mornig from Camp
Alger informing them of the death of
their son, Charles w. He enlisted in
Company H, of the Thirteenth Penn
sylvania volunteers, on June Is. On
July he suffered a sunstroke. Since
that time he has been confined to the
division hospital at Camp Alger. The
worry of being away from home at
such time seemed to bear heavily up
on him and hindered his recovery to a
great extent.
He was born in New Milford, C-Teb-
ruary 6, 1872 He was consequently in
his twenty-seventh year at the time of
his death. He came to the city with
his parents several years ago. During
his residence here he made many
friends. He was a popular young man
with all who knew him.
Besides his father and mother the
immediate relatives who survive him
are four sisters and one brother. They
are Carrie, Ellen, Ada, Celia and Budd.
The remains will be brought here and
then taken to Jackson, Susquehanna
county, for interment,

William Collins, who had the con-
tract for building the river wall north
of the Sixth avenue bridge. has sublet
the job to Contractor Muldoon, of

work, as a consequence, has progressed
slowly. Mr. Muldoon is one of the
biggest contractors in this section. He
has a large plant and a big force of
men always ready. He sent one of
his foremen, Mr.. Garment, to this city
yesterday to take charge of the work.
