EXPENSE SAVED
BY AUTO ENGINE
Elizabeth Fire Board Hears
Report on Motor Apparatus.

Recording a remarkable difference
in favor of the motor apparatus,
statistics of comparison, presented by
Chief Engineer August Gerstung, of
the Elizabeth fire department, to the
board of fire commissioners, of that
city, shows that the yearly cost of
maintaining the automobile apparatus
of Engine company Z had totalled
$60.3S, while the cost of maintaining
the horse drawn apparatus of Engine
company 4, which had even less work
to do in the same period, had totaled
$R90.S6. The maintenance of the
horse drawn apparatus of Engine COM
pany A, according to the chiefs re-
port, was divided as follows Feed,
$600.47; shoeing, $S475; camel coal,
$780, oils, ETC., 1854; coal cheating
steamer) ,SS4;. total, $790.S6. The
amount expended in maintaining the
American-La France automobile ap-
paratus of Engine company included
gasoline. $50.33; oils, $1O.05 total,
$60.38.
The first ANIMAL report of Engine
company 7 was submitted by Captain
l.. Az Bickel, and showed the follow
ing record for the motor apparatus
during the year ending August 10Th:
Thirty-eight bell alarms, eighteen still
alarms, forty three road instructions,
two tests for visiting fire officials,
one test for board of fire underwriters,
one test for testing hose, two tests
at hydrant on pumps for crew. The
engine travelled 276 2.10 miles and
pumped twenty hours and fifty-fiye
minutes, consuming by that work 299
gallons of gasoline and thirty-three
and one-half gallons of cylinder oil,
while six gallons of gasoline We're
used in the quarters in cleaning the
engine, etc. Particular attention was
called by Captain Bickel to the en-
gine's record at the milford lumber
yard fire, his report being as fol-
lows:-
I'VE received a telephone call, left
the quarters, travelled 6-10 of mile,
laid thirteen lengths of hose and
started the engine pumping in eight
minutes. During the fire the engine
maintained for more than three hours
a pump pressure to 140, then to 100,
and finally to seventy-five pounds.
The engine used twenty-six gallons
of gasoline and seventeen quarts OF
cylinder oil and worked five hours
and forty minutes
After these reports had been read,
steps were taken for securing an i'm
mediate appropriation from council
for the motor apparatus to take the
place of the horse-drawn apparatus
of Engine company 3.

OBITUARY.
Georqe GARNER.

George GARNER, former Morris
county resident, died at his home in
New York last week, where he had
made his home for the last eighteen
months. For thirty years Mr.. Car
mer was well-known as an importer
and dealer in modern paintings, with
stores at New York and other places.
Among the famous canvases Mr.. Car
mer brought to this country were
Christ Before PLATE" by Mihaly
Munkacsy, and THE Fall of Babylon,
by Georges Rochegrosse.
Mr.. GARNER was a distinguished con-
noisseur on art. When painting
believed to be a Rubens was found
on the east side in New York he
pronounced it to be spurious and his
decision was accepted by the art
world
He crossed the ocean seyenty-four
times. He was on terms OF intimate
acquaintance with many of the dis
tingulshed artists of his day. 1t is
related that at one time large can
vas by a well-knoWn painter was "go-
ing begging" at an auction abroad.
Mr.. GARNER bought it for $500 and
cut it into three parts, selling each
Llrt for about five times the price
OF the full sized picture. He had his
own troubles persuading the artist
to sign the parts which did not con-
tain the original signature, but by
the exercise of diplomacy succeeded
lin getting the name on each part
Mr. GARNER Was born in Newark
sixty-eight years ago. His wife, who
was Miss Abbie Denman, has been
dead for four years. About seventeen
years ago he bought some land at
Denville, on which stood the old Den
vile hotel, built in 1907. He re-
modelled the building. About three
years later it was destroyed by fire.
He rebuilt it as the Wayside inn,
which he conducted for some years,
recently disposing of the property.
He leaves nine children-George w
GARNER, jr., of Texas; Edward d. Car
mer, of California; Herbert w. Car
mer, of Rockaway, this state; Perce
L. Garner, of East Orange; Fritz v
GARNER, of Providence, r. L.; Mrs
Harry VanThun, Mrs. j. H. Wells
and Miss Abbie GARNER, all of East
Orange, and Miss Evelyn GARNER, OF
