LOCAL ELKS READY
TO SEND ASSISTANCE
When their Brothers in Baltimore
were Burned Out they we're
to Help.

The Elks of Atlantic City are taking
steps to aid the brothers of the order
who suffered losses in the Baltimore
fire. The Elks of the local lodge took
the matter up some time ago and a
committee was appointed to look into
the advisability of such a course. The
members of this committee were:
Richard White, Arthur Nestor and
Samuel J. Mason It was even thought
of sending the proceeds from the min
strel show in South Amboy to the
sufferers from the conf1agration.
However, when it was learned that
the citizens of Baltimore declared
they desired no outside aid, Perth
Amboy Lodge gave up the project.

USED FIRE HYDRANT
To WATER ENGINES.
Pressure so Low Big Tank Could
Not be Filled and Hose
was Secured.

Pennsylvania railroad engines we're
forced to take water from fire hyd-
rant last night. The city pressure
was so low that the water could not
be forced to the top of the big tank at
the State street station and what
water was in it was soon used.
When the predicament was discover
ed, Superintendent Burns, of the
water department, was notified he
agreed to allow the use of the fire
hydrant at State and Center streets.
When the company asked for the use
of hose, however, they were referred
to Chief Comings, but as he could not
be found, the hose was secured from
the Jersey City shops. The hydrant
was used whenever it was necessary
for an engine to take water, until this
morning.
