Fire Hose Companys Employees, held at

last night, was one of the finest and most
successful affairs of the season. The
dancing commenced about nine o'clock
and continued until the cock was ready to
crow In the morning. Everything con-
spired to make the event successful The
hoor was in the best of condition, the
music was excellent and the various com
mittees saw that everything was done
up in good shape. One of the features
of the reception was the great number of
pretty girls and fair matrons who attend
As each dance was played che floor was
crowded and the committee had no trouble
finding partners for anyone.
Supper was served about midnight and
almost everybody enjoyed the good things
provided. Some missed the supper as they
cared more for the pleasures of the dance
than the qualification of the inner per-
son. After supper the dancing was re-
suned and when the orchestra struck up
Home Sweet Home there were doubts
In the minds of many as to whether or not
Columbia Hall was not preferable to
home.

graduated on the success of the dance III

CHAMBERS EPIDEMIC.
Fifteen Horses Killed in
One Stable and One in
Another.

An outbreak of glanders among horses
in this city is feared. Fifteen horses of
the Windsor Trucking Company of First
street were killed because they were suf-
fering from the disease. Steps have been
taken to avoid the spreading of this dis
ease
The police of the Communipaw avenue
station were notified yesterday evening
that there was horse in a livery stable
at No. SIT Communipaw avenue suffering
from the disease. The case was reported
by Peter Hooning, who is employed in
the stable. The Health Department was
notified Immediately. Inspector Benjamin
investigated and the horse was ordered
shot. Every precaution will be taken to
avoid the spreading of this disease among
the many other horses in the stable. The
place will be fumigated and the stall
where the horse was destroyed.
The authorities have cautioned horse
owners to use every possible means of
preventing their horses from contracting
this disease. They are particularly warned
against water troughs, because these
places foster the disease.
1t appears that the disease came from
eilher view AoIh vi ->SWaI WhelS uO1eAs
of horses were killed. The water troughs
along Grand street, where the Newark
truckmen water their horses, may be in
vestigated and ordered destroyed If evil
dence of the disease is found. Hundreds
of horses are watered along Grand street
daily, and should the disease be allowed
headway, there would be no way possible
to prevent it spreading among thousands
of animals with fatal results.
Persons who are aware of the existence
of glanders in any stable make themselves
amenable to the law if they do not notify
the proper authorities in time.
