CHIEF WELSH'S HORSE
In GOOD CONDITION

Despite the fact that many persons
have expressed the opinion that the
horse Of the chief of the Fire Depart
ment, John P. Welsh. is half dead, "
the animal has proved himself to be a
good one at the last two alarms of fire.
When box No. p, at Delaware ave-
nue. and DUPONT street. struck of on
Wednesday, Chief Welsh was eating
dinner at his residence. No. 315 Clay
mont street. He at once left the table
and ran to the stable. where Driver
James Dougherty, Of the Liberty Fire
Company, had the chiefs team in
readiness. Third and French streets
were crossed in two and a-half min
utes. Proceeding up King street to
Tenth and out that thOroughfare
Washington street was reached in six
minutes. He arrived at the B. & o..
railroad bridge, eight minutes after
the alarm was struck. and a half-min-
ute later was at the fire.
When No. box struck on Monday
night, Chief Welsh was in bed in the
Liberty engine house, but in three and
a-half minutes he was at the scene of
the fire.
BY consent Of the members of the
Liberty Fire Company, James Dough-
erty, driver for the company, is per-
mitted to drive the chiefs wagon when
alarms hit off to which the company
does not respond. An extra driver,
however, always is kept at the house
in case of a second alarm. Mr.. Dough-
erty is one of the most experienced
engine drivers in the city.
