three of them, Pup" "Mush and
Bob Their driver Jack Hayden, is
now stationed with q engine at OAK
and Devisadero streets. AT the time OF
the first horse show in this city the
horses were stationed at the house of
engine 2, on Bush street, near kearny,
and there was hardly minute or the
day when they were on duty that the
sidewalk in front of the engine house
was not filled with admirers.
Pup" "Mush" and Bob" we're dap
pie grays, big rangy fellows with flow
ing silvery names and tails that were
dreams of fluffiness. "Mush" was the
darkest, a steel graz, and will be re-
membered as the off horse OF the trio IN
the hitch-up. Poor "Mush' went to the
boneyard moons ago After partici-
pating in the highest honors that can
fall to a horse he fell in the discharge
of duty.
One midnight that the fashionables of
San Francisco will long remember the
bell tap summoned "Mush" and his
mates to answer an alarm Of fire just
at the close Of a Mardi Gras ball at the
Hopkins Institute of Art. The gray
wonders of engine 2 dashed out of their
house and ran to Dupont, uD Dupont
to Pine and then took the heart-break-
ing hill, up, up. to Powell-two blocks
of the steepest grade a municipality
ever cobbled.
Engine 2 got there mainly through
the efforts of "Mush," who cast two
shoes, so hard did he pull. Afterward
it was found the brave animal had rup-
tured an intestine. For two full months
cheerfully to calls, then suddenly sick
ened and died. His end was so sudden
that an autopsy was determined upon.
It revealed the hidden hurt that had
brought him to his heroic death.
That death broke up the team and
now they are scattered. Pup" IS at
one station and Bob at another Their
driver is at third, but they are all
still in the department they have served
so we'll. Their feats will remain ever
fresh in the memory of all within the
fire lines, and many without.

Having sized up the candidates tenn

engine or truck, preferably the former,

out and given a. run of several blocks,

of the work and exhibits the necessary

The work Of developing the accepted
horse into an accomplished member OF
the fire force of the city begins at once.
Long experience has taught the trainer
that fire horses, unlike poets, are made.
not born. It is not necessary that they
have any instinct for the business This
method used in familiarizing them with
their duty is simple and direct, and in
the history of the department was
never known to fail. 1t takes no COM
pleX apparatus, as many suppose, but
it does take some patience and an un~
limited fund of kindness.
The animal ready to be put through
his preliminary PAGES, is stationed IN
stall near an engine, to which Is at

taps leads the candidate under the har-
ness, which is snapped on him. Then
he is led back to his stall to await the
next bell tap. This procedure is re
peated at intervals until it is thought
the horse has cOmprehended the mean
ing of the tap. Then he is tried alone
If he responds to the stroke of the gong
he is almost ready for graduation. If
he does not. the leading process is gone
through all over again until the lesson
is fully learned. No record has been
kept Of the average length of time nee
essary to put a fire horse through the
ropes, but some have been known to
learn within couple of days all there
is 10 learn.
Once horse understands what is eX-
pected Of him when the bell taps, he
never forgets-that is, not as long as
he is IN the department, and there are
said to be cases eXtant where retired
fire horses. degraded to serve in the
shafts of trade, have displayed the de-
sire to HE them to fires the moment the
alarm sounded.
The horse, having passed the veterin-
ary's severe examination and having
graduated from the training stable, is
assigned to duty in one Of the fire houses
as a full member of the department.
1t is after this that the public is wont
to see beauties in the beast that would

T HE Fire Department of San
Francisco, conceded as 1t is to be
among the finest in the world,
would be nothing without its
- horses. Its capable chief and MS
skillful assistants would be useless, It's
up-to-date apparatus might as well

footed animals Jump at the first tap OF

nifcant blaze Without the apparatus
the fremen would be of as much use as
icemen in the inferno. and orders issued
TO them by even as competent a fire
fighter as Chief Sullivan might as we'll
fall on deaf ears.
II can readily be seen, therefore. what
a high place the horse must hold in the
economy Of fre-fghting. without
him" as the song goes, what's the
band?" That Chief Sullivan and his
aids appreciate the importance OF the
horse in their calculations is shown by
the specimens of that animal in the de-
partment stables, the care that is taken
in their training and the feeding and
housing they get. The work cut out
for them IN this city over the steep
grades IS hard, and only the strongest
can do 1t. Such are the horses in har-
ness in the engines, trucks and water
towers Of the San Francisco depart
ment.
It has been the custom to limit the
ages of eligibility Of horses for the de-
partment to between four and seven
years. In some instances, where the
animal is an extraordinary specimen
the limit is raised to eight, never De-
