Four frame buildings were gutted this

two hours The loss was about s59a

affected were William Flynn, copper

liam Han. a well known character. who
owns the buildings, was burned out. The
lots are owned by the OFNeil estate.
When the fire companies arrived on the
scene they found the buildings ali ablaze.
There was no wind and this probably pre-
vented general confiagration. The
flames had gained headway when the first
stream was directed against them The
firemen fought gallantly and they deserve
credit for the excellent manner in which
they worked.
Though the hour was very late large
crowd was at the fire. Many of them
came from the county convention at the
Robert Davis Association Among them
were Mr.. Davis Senator Hudspeth and
several leading Democrats who were
awaiting news of the Newark primaries.
Mr.. Hall has occupied a small shed in
the rear of No IS Hudson street for more
than a year. He has lived alone and has
been looked upon as rather an eccentric
character. When the firenen heard that
he was probably in the shed they hur-
ried there to rout him out. It took sorne
time to awaken him. but he finally got
up from his couch and amid protestations
against being disturbed, he dressed. When
fully awake he appreciated the fact that
his property was burning up and then he
became greatly alarmed for his own safe
ty and for the buildings. He was much
perturbed. He would not talk about his
loss but it is said he is not covered by
insurance. The concerns affected will
lose nothing through the burning OF their
stocks. as they are insured. but viii lose
considerable through loss OF time in filing
contracts.

Then Mr.. George T. Smith, the party's

stage. The impression he created among
those who were not acquainted with him
was most favorable. When introduced he
stepped forward and in an easy, straight
forward manner began short but grace
fully worded speech of thanks for the
nomination.
He said that Senator Hudspeth had
smoothed the way for him so far as maxi
ing a speech was concerned He did not
expect, he said. to be called up to make
a speech; that when he was sent for by
the notification committee he imagined
that all he would have to do was to sign
his name to some document. When he

ALAS, POOR FOX !!
No More Will His Yachting
Decisions Be Accept
ed in Hoboken.

The friends of Councilman James J.
Fox, the popular Democratic ward leader
in Hoboken, are having a good laugh al
his expense. 1t has always been con-
sidered Gospel truth that the good
natured Alderman knew something about
yachting. Around the City Hall, when
ever a dispute arose over the yacht races
his decisions were never questioned. His
friends had such implicit confidence in
him that they would not have had the
least fear Of venturing to sea in small
boat if Jimmie were only at the helm.
ssWhen used to go out sailing on the
Schuylkill River was one of the Alder
mans favorite remarks, and whenever he
began in this strain his hearers always
knew that they were going to learn some
thing about yachting.
But Jimmie's beautiful reputation as
an amateur yaehtsman has utterly coll
lapsed. He took three of his best friends
out sailing on the Hackensack River yes
terday and-well- they say that he tried
to drown them. Those who went along
with the Alderman were City Prison
Keeper Thomas McAleer, John Durhams
and John Morrlssey. All four were re-
joicing this morning over their miracu-
lous escape, Fox included. The survivors
were still suffering from shock this
morning and could give only vague de-
scription of their experience.
1t appears that Durhams got overheard
while tho party was embarSing Me
Aleer Jumped in after him with all his
clothes on and succeeded in rescuing Dur
hams after a hard struggle. The accident
brought forth some advice from Fox upon
