Cunning was one of the most genuine

FIRE HORSES.
Three Teams on Exhibition Before
The Committee,

Some time ago Council authorized
the Fire Committee to advertise for
horses for the proposed West Side fire
station and Thursday was the day
named when the horses were to be
brought to the City Hall for examina-
ton.
AT O'Clock the committee, consist
ing Of Messrs. Loffland, Lorenz and
Marsch, were at the City Hall and
three teams were brought up for ex-
animation.
The first was team of black geld
ings, six and seven years old, weight
1850 pounds, belonging to Sell Dye, of
this city
The second was a bay team, gelding
and mare, weighing 1900 pounds and
owned by Jacob Suder, who lives
north of the city.
The third team were sorrel geldings,
Weighing 1900 pounds each, six years
old, and owned by d. F. Duffer, OF
Rockville, w. Va.
All were apparently first-class
horses, suitable for the purposes Of the
fire department with proper training.
They were carefully looked over by the
members of the committee and of the
fire department, and the Duffer team
was hitched to the fire wagon and CIV
en- trial. They made a good run on
Third street and seemed to please the
members of the committee.
After the examination the COM
mittee went to the Clerks Office where
the bids wer opened. They were as
follows:
Jacob Suder. ..... .......... -. 275
ID. II. DufTer. er............ ......... $50
The committee did not take any ac-
tion further than the opening of the
bids, but will hold meeting later to
determine which team they will rec
ommend to Council. Other teams were
expected in yesterday, but owing to in
clement weather they did not come so
that the three mentioned will be the
only ones considered by the COM
mittee.
