Firo and Water Combine to Ruin the Stock of Grunebaum Brothers, Saturday night, as Officer Pat Mostyn was pacing his Thirteenth street beat, he discovered a slight column of smoke issuing from the cloees eashed in the rear of Granebaum’s dry good store,1309 Far- nam street. An alarm was promptly sounded from box 17, to which the fire department quickly responded. Prompt and heroic work on the part of the fire- mon soon quelled the flames. The attack was bsgun on the second floor, afterwards being directed to the first floor where the fire appeared to bo rag ing tho most violently. A fow minutes hard work extinguished the blazo. Grunebaum Brothers' stock of goods was, 80 far as can be at present esti- mated, entirely ruined. The loss will be somewhere between $20,000 and §25,000. A little smoke pene- trated to the atores on either side, those of Ramge and Smith, but did no damage. The building, owned by J. H. MecShane, was not materially injded. The cause of the fire is not known. It appeared to have originated in the base- ment in the vicinity of the furnaces. The loss is not fully covered by insu- rance. Following is a detailed list: Scottish Unfon and National, $2 500; Hunover, $2 000; Germania, $1,000; Hartford, $1.000; Citizens, §1,000; Ua. derwriters, $3,000; City of London, £1,000; London, Liverpool and Globe, $1,000; Phenix, of London, $1,000; Connecticut, $1,000; Nisgara, $1,000; German-American, $2,000; Phaaix, of London, §2,000, Fixtures: Wostchester, of New York, $600; Home, §500.

FLey ‘ FIRE FIGHTERS. Deo. 27.|0mans’s Fire Department of the Past and Prosent, Mistory and Remintscence — Stories of Ploneer Days, —-— There is perhaps no feature of local history more interesting than that of Omaha's fire departadent, Reachingibaock to the days when Omaha was In her the fisst start, In order to forge ahoad on A eatly start, the Kire King men would rush thelr machine (whioh was several limes more hoavy than the hook and Iadder truck) wodge 1t Into the door and keep it thers until the truck men would be compelled to glve s 1ift and wond it shead. Another ralo adopted by the Fira King men, In order to distance the rival, was to run their heavy machine betreen the fore and hind wheels of the truck and thereby would most effectively ourb any undue spoed that the truckmen might be dis posed to display. The first perlod of the department’s history was one of atruggle, o stroggle to build up and to Improve, It infancy, and when her present greatness waa but a vague dream, the history of the department presents varled and Inex. haunt sources of delightful reminiscense. An artlole on such a subject must, of necessity, be Incomplete. To ohronicle the history of the local fire salyage corps would require a volume of no mean proportions. But to briefly summarize the main points of Its history, to chronicle its struggles and advance- ments, to hastily oull here and there a story told by the old ploneer firemen, is perhaps within the scope of this neces- sarily limited article. Before passing to the more pleasant part of auch a talk, that of remintscense, it were beat, perhaps, to sketch, in very condensed form, thehistory of the depart- ment. During the early days of Omaha’s his. tory—say for the first six years, the method of extinguishing fires was very primitive, the *‘ bucket machine” being the only apparatus in vogue. Darlng these pioneer times as soon as the cry of fire was sounded, each man selzed his wifo's best pail or pails, and darted in head-lodg haste in the direction of the fire. A line would be formed between the blazs and the nearest well or cistern, Sometimes the fire was extinguished; again, somotimes it wasn’t. Omaha's growing Interests soon de- manded an organized system of fire pro- tection, A cltizen’s meeting was called in May, 1860. The result was the formation of the Picneer hook and ladder company. For abont six years thls company was aloneincontrolling Omaha conflagrations. The company is still in exlstence and will complete its quarter centennial next Mazy, when it will disband. In the spring of 1866, at the arrlval of the new Fire King steamer, the Fire King company, No. 1 was organizsd, with John Hassett president, and C, S. Geodrich, secretary. This Fire King steamer, really the first fire extinguishing machine ever owned by the tire department, is worthy of mention somewhat extended. The machine, one of the old-fashioned pat- tern, was first owned by the Utica, N, Y., department. It was afterward sold to Chicago, whence 1t was in turn dis- posed of to Davenport. ' Once agatn, it was sold to Omaha, where, after long and faithful years of service, the Fire King was purchased by Golden City, Col. It Is still in that city, but its term of usefulness has long since exnired. In the fall of 1867 the steamer ‘Omaha No. I"” was purchased and turned over to the Frie K'ng company, previously or+ ganizad. The Fire King engine was turned over to a mnew company which was christened Fire King C)mpany, No. 2, In 1868, a new Fire King steamer was purchased, manned by Fire King CompanyNo 2. This company, then as now, was located on Tenth street. The old building was afterwards burnt down, being set on fire by some evil gen- ius who had previously plundered it while the boys were away at a fire, In 1870 the growth of the city justifled the purchase of another steamer, *Ne- braeka, No, 3,” which was tarned over to the No. 1 boys. The No. 1 steamer was moved to a new engine house in the northern part ot the city’ and a new company was formed which is the nucleus of the present No, 1 company. In March, 1879, a new steamer was purchased which was turned over to the Fire King Company No. 2. The No. 2 engine was turned over to the No. 1 Company. This put the old No, 1 en- gine omt of service, and gave the city three second-class steamers with No, 1 in reserve. This was the stateof the department up to the building of the waterworks, Since that time the steamers have been discarded and the department supplied with newly-patterned hose-carts. The Durant hose company was organizad in 1870 under the management of the Union Pacific railroad company, while the Del- uge hose company, the latest addition to the fire department, has been organized within the present year, and is now lo- cated in the new No. 4 engine house in South Omaha. Three years ago the vol- unteer department was supplanted by the paid system, since which time the fire-service has reached a high degree of efficiency. Many are the stories which the veteran fireman tell of those by-gone days when the old Twelfth street house used to be the rendezvous of all the young bloods in the village. The hook and ladder houee was sltuated between Farnam and Douglas on Twelfth, aud was an old, tumble-down affair, long since lost in ruins. One of the favorite amusements of the boys used to be the prace tice of a most unrighteous trick on the unwary stranger who tarried for a mo- ment in the abode of the fireman, As soon as a victim would enter the door he would be politely escorted to the stove, which had previously been filled with conl of the most inflammable and gaseous nature, The victim would then be snugly esconced in a chair, the legs of which had been partly sawed, but which still gave no sign of the rotten condition of the foundation. In a moment the gao would ignite—ca Boof, & most terrific explosion would ensue. Poor stran. ger would ba paralyzsd with terror, the logs of his chair would suddenly snap off aud Jo—he would be hurled in & most un- gainly and uncomfortable manner across tha room. A general laugh would follow and the trap would be set fra new vie. tim, 1n those early days of the department, some of the incidental feitu of the firemens’ lifo were decidedly amuaing Me Charles G oodrich, tha genial vebaran of the department, and now resting easily on his well-carned record, tells with groat gusto of the rivalry between the hook and lsdder men and the manipua- latora of the Fire King. It seems that the two machines I.ll'bufll stationed in the same house on Twellth strest, Of course as soon e the alarm of fire was sounded each set of men would rush to thelr respective machines, hoplng to make must be chronicled, in all truth that the ocity fathers did not support the depart ment very energetioally—for what reason does not appesr. There Ia is, however, no doubt but that the clty falled to support the boys as it should. Many were the schemes of strateglc na. ture to which the firemen resorted to build up the department in which they took 80 much pride. On one occasion, when they were considerably Incensed at some grlevance, they determined to set forth, in the shape of a practical joke, their oplnion of the city council. Ac- cordingly a leather medal was execated, with filagree and embossment. and appro- priatoly carved with some legend, which, unfortunately, has not been handed down to the present generation. A com- mittee of one was appointed to deliver the leather medal, and the unlucky choice fell to the lot of Jim Neligh, in these days known as Mr. J, J. Nellgh, Mr, igh took the medal and rushing Into the councll room, dropped the testimonial of esteem (7) and abruptly shot out of the room, anticipat- fng a forclble and nnceremonious ejection. What effect this practical bit of scarcasm had upon the city fathers in the direction of inspiring thelr zeal for the fire deprrtment does not .an”h Daring vhe latter yeacs of the war of the rebellion, and at the time when the Quantrell guerlllas were committing ex- tenalve depredations in Kansas, a ludi- crous incident happened which serves well to illustrate the popular fear which then prevailed, that Omaha was to be victimizsd by the bold buccaneer and his men. Everybody In: those days was armed for any emergency, and there was scarcoly a family but was provided with a small arsenal ready to do wmervice in the event of an invasionj Guards were sta- tioned on the outskirta of the village, prepared to herald, in post haste, the first approach of the invaders. One day, while the popular feeling wasat its height, old Billy Wiiliams, who had been doing sentinel service, was seen riding into Omahs, in the greatest of haate, bellow- ing at the top of his lungs. The circum- stance of Billy's effortat speed was, In it- self, curlons, for Billy was of a nature slow and phlegmatio, while his animal was a most antiquitated mule of sadly forlorn and dilanidated appearance. Nev- ertheless 1t came to pass that Billy, lash- ing the poor long eared beast to its fall speed capacity, dashed into town, bawl- ingmost vociferously. Itso happened that the Western brewery, then situated in the northern part of town had caught fire. Billy (had spied the conflagration and leaving for the moment his post of guard determined to give thealarm, He succeeded. The sight of the old man dashing intown to ‘‘wake up the natives” was electric in effect. Everybody supposed that the long dreaded guerillas had finally come. In a few moments all Farnam street was bristling with arms and the whole town rose In arms to meet the invaders. No one seemed to divine the true cause of the excitement, and not until the fire departiment turned out and dashed to the fire was the farcial cause of the ex- citement revealed to the people. It was some time before the anxious Omahan subsided from terror into a broad grin over the (Quantrell Invasion. Oue of the most memorable nights of the fire department in its days of infancy was the occasion of the Will R. King fire, the occasion of the murder of Hig- 1us, on the night of November 23, 1866, iggins, It will be remembered, was the cashier of King & Co.. and was mur- dered by Baker, a porter employed in the store. Baker's plan was, after stealthily killing Higgins, to set fire to the store, hoping thereby to cover up all traces of the crime. When the fire was first discovered by the watchman, the alarm was promptly sounded. It so hap- pened that the fire department that very day had purchased several hundred feet of adaitional hose. Each man picked up a fifty-foot section = of the hose, and etarted on a run for the fire. The boys worked like Trojans that night, and before the flames had gained much headway, the fire was under con- trol. e records of the department, old and musty, still show a copy of the letter in which Will R, King and ac- knowledged the eflicacy of the depart- ment and courteously tendered several baskets of champagne as a *‘testimonial of gratitude.” The burning of the Grand Central ho. tel and the terrible scenes connected therewlith are too fresh in the memory of elvery Omahan to require extended men- tion, A glance at the fire department of to- day must cloge this already too extended article. There are now four engine houses In Omaha, No. 1, in north Omaha, with four men; No, 2, on Tenth street, with four paid men and two minute wen; No. 3, on Sixteenth street, with efght men, and No. 4, in south Omahs, with two men.

His body was taken to Drexel & Maul's undertak- ing rooms, where it now lies. Just as O’Connell was crosting the ‘“great dlvide,” a telegram came from Dunkirk, New York, stating that his aged father had been buried at that place on Monday last. The dyiag man did not see the message and passed over the river ignorant of the fact that his father had preceded him and was awalt- ing his coming. Seal of North Oarolina Smoking To acco s the best. BALKY HORSES. That is the Kind Now Used Dby the Etreet Car Company. For a month or six weeks past the street car company has been trying to work a lot of balky horses, particularly on the Green line, Many complaints have been heard in regard to this and indeed the passengers have a right to complain, It is no interesting thing to sit In a car which is colder than ice, for fifteen to twenty minutes, and wait until a balky horse takes a notion to go ahead. During the past two weeks this has been done many times a da) and is growing worse instead of better. Yesterday afternoon a horse attached to a green car balked at the corner of Six- teenth and Webster streets, and refused to move for fully twenty minutes. The car was crowded with passengers and many of them got out snd walked down town, not being able to wait for the horso to start. This thing might do if the weathcr was warm and pleasant, but the cars are sup- posed to make the trains at the depot and several passengers during the past fow weeks have missed trains on account of being delayed by balky horses. A gentleman was heard to remark to- day, “If this street car company waat to break colts and balky horaes, thoy should be compelled to bulld a track out in the country and do the work there and not inflict this torture upon their patrons.
