Popular Concert.'
The concert given last evening at Mozart
Hall by Prof. J. H. Newman’s class, assisted
by several young ladies and gentlemeD, may
very properly be termed a popular concert, if
popularity be judged by pleased countenan
ces and applause. The hall was well filled,
and the entertainment, in every respect, a
very charming one.
In part first there were several excellently
rendered pieces, though all were good, and
it is difficult to attempt particular mention.
We may, however, notice the solo, “What
Enchantment,” which was most exquisitely
suug by Miss Mamie Gleason, who possesses
a voice of rare sweetness and power. She
was rapturously encored by the appreciative
auditors.
A quartette by tho Misses Silva and Dale,
and Messrs. Swanson, was admirable, the
blending of the voices showing excellen
training.
The cantata of “The May Queen” was
given in very capital style and progressed
smoothly to the close. Miss Georgia Ash
as the May Queen sustained the character
with much dignity aud grace and elicited
hearty applause. The Fairy Queen, person
ated by Miss Libbie Flint, was alike deserv
ing of praise.
ilnrtowi on a Serenading Tour.
Last evening the members of Bartow Fire
Company determined to wind up the day’s

whom they complimented with several tine
airs. Next to Mayor Auderson’s, Mr. Henry
Brigham’s, President John Schwarz’s, Mr.
A. Fernandez’s and others, and at a late
hour dropped around to honor the Morning
News office in like manner. They were
all in excellent spirits, and apparently their
experiences of the evening were of tho
most enjoyable character. We tender tbe
Bartows our acknowledgments and appre
ciation of the compliment to tho News, and
wish them much success and prosperity.

wai among those who had failed to take out

under circumstances similar to those in the

The anniversary of the Savannah Fire
Department was celebrated yesterday with
considerable eclat. The occasion was looked
forward to with much interest, and conse
quently the rendezvous in front of Fire
man’s Hall, on South Broad street, was
crowded with people some time before the
hour announced for the parade.
The several steamers were beautifully
burnished and decorated with flowers, pre
senting a very attractive appearance. The
decorations ou the Hook and Ladder Track
were very elaborate, consisting of a series
of floral arches about four feet in height
from the centre ; suspended beneath the
middle wreath was a figure dresed as a fire
man, which occasioned considerable amuse
ment. The truck was in splendid condition
and its appearance betokened careful at
tention.
About half-past three o’clock tbe proces
sion was formed in tho following order
nnder the direction ot Chief Blair and As
sistant Chief Butler, both of whom, after
the line was formed, were “mounted”—the
former on the rear of a steamer, the latter
on top the Werner truck:
1. Werner Hook and Ladder Companv.
2. Savannah Guards* Band.

Reel No. 2.
5. Bartow Steam Fire Engine and H« se
Reel No. 3.
6. Cleburne (auxiliary) Hose Company.
7. Mutual Protection (auxiliary) Hose
Company.
The “Young Bartows,” of whom we will
have something to say farther on, were on
the ground but did not join the procession
until the inspection on the Bay.

THE “YOT7NG BARTOWS,’
composed of boys, the majority of whom
were under twelve years ot age, made their
appearance, drawing the jumper of the Ger
mania Fire Company, and took position on
the extreme left. The “Young Bartows'
presented a very fine appearance, and con
ducted themselves as little men. Their uni
form—white shirts, rod cufls and broad
collars, bl’ck pants and fatigue caps of the
old Metropolitans—was quite neat and at
tractive. The company were uuder com

THE INSPECTION.
Some minutos after the companies Lad
formed in front of their respective appa
ratuses, Mayor Anderson, accompanied by
nearly the entire Board of Aldermen, who
were in waiting at the Exchange, made their
appearance, and, escorted by Chief Blair and
Assistant Chief Butler, reviewed the De
partment and inspected the apparatus, the
result, to judge from their approving smiles
being entirely satisfactory.
THE YOUNG BARTOWS ENJOY A COLLATION,
After the inspection the “Young Bar
tows,” rightly considering that, in view of
the contest of t4ie steamers, it was the
part of prudence to seek some other scene
formed in line aud moved off up Bull street,
a motley crowd of gamius following them
with every manifestation of enthusiasm,
They proceeded to the residence of Assist
ant Chief Butler on Perry street, whoie
they were very handsomely entertained
by their foreman, Master Iteuben Butler,
ice cn am, cakes aud lemonade being abund
ant, and it is unnecessary to say that these
good things were attended to by the young-
stors with considerable energy aud interest.
After the collation they returned their tamp
er to the ball, and making a short parade
down Bull street were dismissed. We com
pliment the Young Bartows on their first
appearance, and wish them many re:urns of
the occasion they eDjoyed with such zest
yesterday.
THE CONTEST.
As announced in the programme, a con
test between the different steamers was to
follow the inspection, and accordingly, af
ter the review, the Mayor and Aldermin.
with Chief Blair, proceeded to Fireman’s
Hall, the several steamers aud Lose carts
romaiuing on the Bay uuder tho direction of
Chief Butler. The arrangements were that
upon the striking of an alarm from station
17, corner of South Broad and Bull streets,
steamer No. 1 aud reel, and the Werner
Hook aud Ladder Company were to respond
the former to take plug and play water on
Fireman’s Hall, the latter to throw up lad
der and send a man to top of the hall.
The other steamers were to follow in ord
at intervals of ten minutes upon sounding
of alarm from same box.
Aldermen Hull and Watkins, with Capt.
Wm. Hone, were the timers.
An immense crowd had collected ou South
Broad street, in the vicinity, and in front of
the hall, the porticos of the different resi
deuces from Abercorn to Bull street being
crowded with ladies, and the contest was
anticipated with a rare degree of interest.
THE ALARM.
Promptly at five o’clock the alarm was
sounded from station 17, aud in an
incredibly short space of time the Ger
mania steamer was seen to turn rapidly
from Draytou into South Broad, with hose
reel at hand. The plug was quickly made,
and ere many could realize that the steamer
had actually made the run from the Bay,
the gallant company had water playing,
and in a brief time the velocity of the
stream gave token that steam was up,
The juvenile pjrtiou of the crow’d became
perfectly uproarious at this, aud cheers
rent the air, as was the case with like
exhibition of promptness and efficiency
on the part of the other steamers. The
Werner Hook and Ladder Company, who
responded to the first alarm, reached
the ground in advance of the steamer, and
in a little over two minutes from the sound
ing of the alarm, had a ladder agaiust the
ball and a man on top of the building. We
do not think this time can be excelled. The
Germauias broke a trace at the start, which
delayed them about a minute, but their
record is one that they can nevertheless be
proud of.
At the expiration of ten minutes
the second steamer was called, then
the third, aud in each case with gratifying
results. The Bartows lost a few seconds by
shooting ahead of the plug, but made up
this by the rapidity with which she got up
steam.
THE OFFICIAL RECORD
of time was taken from the sounding of tho
alarm to the playing of water, and to the
getting up of steam, no time being taken of
the arrival of tbe steamers on tbe ground.
We present this record, with the remark
that it was, in the estimation of the judges
and others, considered remarkably good
time. The following is the record :
Werner Hook and Ladder Company
reached the hall, had ladder up and man on
top in 2 minute-B and 6$ seconds alter the
sounding of the alarm.
Germania No. 2—Water from" pipe 3:12;
steam 6:50 from sounding of alarm.
Washington No. 1—W’ater from pipe 3:10;
steam G;2G£ from sounding of alarm.
Bartow No. 3—Water from pipe 3:13A;
steam 5:594 from sounding of alarm.
• A CONTRAST.
As a matter of interest, we give the record
made on the occasion of the exhibition by
Chief Blair, in compliment to the Georgia
Tress Association on the 12ih May last. It
will be remembered that this exhibition
took place on the Bay, the alarm being
sounded from station No. 7, and the steam
ers in readiness at their respective quarters.
This is the record ;
Bartow No. 1—Water from pipe 3:40;
steam 5:30.
Germania No. 2—Water from pipe 4:30;
steam 7:36.
Washington No. 1—Water from pipe 4:o0;
Steam 5:55.
Werner Hook and Ladder Company—On
the ground in 2:25.
THE EXHIBITION,
all in all, was not only interesting aud ex
citing, but was also eminently satisfactory,
giving additional evidence of the efficiency
and training of the department.
At its close the several apparatuses were
returned to their respective quarters, and
the members forming in procession entered
the hall, where a
SPLENDID COLLATION
had been prepared in honor of the anniver
sary. Two tables stretching the entire
length of the hall, with a third at the head,
were loaded with tempting subitantials,
flaDked with cigars, wine, etc. At the cen
tre table were assembled the Chief and the
guests, including the Mayor aud Aldermen.
After a tune from the band, Chief B air
extended & hearty welcome to the
guests to join the department in
discussing the feast before them,
which invitation, without more ado, was ac
cepted, and fjqr a time tongues were silent
and jaws were vigorously working. But
that potent punch, dispensed so liberally by
the genial Captain Hone, had an inspiring
— n n/1 rtalla tT?ftrn TY1Q Q0
oilities, their time record was somewhat
I better,yet in efficiency and discipline f hey d ul
not exceed the Savannah Fire Department
: la this connection he might meu’iou that
i he ha l heard through their worthy Chief
that it was tbe wish of the Department to
pass in review before Dr. Arnold, who had
taken so lively an interest in this organiza
tion. He had called upon Dr. Arnold dur
ing the day and regretted to say that he
found him* exceedingly ill, and he feared
they would never see him again able
to " resume the discharge of his du
ties. The Doctor had expressed sor
row that he was not able to be with them,
but had requested the tender of his best
wishes for a* pleasant occasion, and future
usefulness and prosperity. H< would sug
gest to the department as a kffidiy action
and as expressive of their regard, that a
committee be appointed to wait upon Dr.
Arnold with a message of regret at his ab
sence.
Chief Blair here announced that Alderman
Hull, who was one of the judges, would read
the record of tbe time made by the different
steamers. Alderman Hull thereupon read
the record as above given, which was re
ceived with cheers.
Ou motion of Precident John Schwarz,
tho Chief was authorized to appoint a com
mittee in accordance with the suggestion of
Mayor Anderson.
Chief Blair thereupon appointed the Fore
man of each company, with Assistant Chief
Bntler as chairman, as the committee, who
then retired.
Previous to this, however, Assistant But
ler was called on most vociferously and re
sponded by saying that the men were ahead
of their time. That they seemed to forget
there were a number of the Board of Al
dermen present, who were spoiling to make a
speech, who were actually boiling over with
eloqueace—one in particular who had grown
grey in the service—Aldermaa Villalonga—
and he would, therefore, propose that he be
heard from.
Alderman Villalonga was called for and
responded by saying that he was not much
on the speech making and could add but
little to wbat had been said. He felt some
what like the member of the committee in
Washington that were investigating the ma
noeuvres of Mr. Jim Blaine the other day—
“he was sick and would move that they ad
journ.”
This was received with laughter, and at
tention being called to the punch, for
a while the merry company were silent.
Pending the absence of tbe committee, the
Chief, who was assiduous ia his attentions,
kept all merry and in good humor.
The committee returned in about half an
hour, and Assistant Chief Butler stated that
they had called upon Dr. Arnold, who had
expressed himself greatly gratified at this
kind remembrance, and deep regret that he
wa3 unable to join with them in their re
union.
A toast to the Morning News by Foreman
John McNulty, of the Bartows, was followed
by calls for Mr. B. H. Richardson, the city
editor, who, in responding to the compli
ment, said :
Mr. Chief and gentlemen of tho Fire De
partment, I consider it entirely unneces
sary to utter one word in praise of this De
partment, of which you as members may
well feel proud, and which stands so high in
tbe regard of our citizens. Its efficiency,
promptness and discipline have been most
forcibly demonstrated iu the record of the
contest this afternoon, which has just been
read by Alderman Hull. That speaks for
itself, aud ia a better testimonial of the ex
ceileuce of this department than empty
words. I can only congratulate you upon
the splendid exhibition, and our city upon
the possession of t«uch a fire service. As the
representative here of the Morning News I
can only say that in the future, as iu the
past, ’its power and influence will
be cheerfully exercised in the eus-
tenaiion and encouragement of so valuable
a branch of our protective system, aud one
that has proven itself so worthy of regard
as the Savannah Fire Department.
After some more music aud further
social converse over foaming glasses, the
pleasant occasion was brought to a close,
and In a short time Fireman’s Hall, which
had during the afternoon been the scene of
so much animation and bustle, had resumed
its wonted quietness.

Georgia Hititmrn.
A special meeting of the Georgia Hussars
was held last evening to make arrangements
for attending the Fort Moultrie Centennial
at Charleston. After a thorough dit>cussion
of the proposed visit, the subject was refer
red to the following committee : Sergeant
G. B. Pritchard, Sergeant G. W. Owens,
Corporal W. S. Cherry and Private J. K.
Munuerlyn, Jr., who were appointed to can
vass amongst the members for tbe requisite
number of men, and to make all prepara
tions for tbeir transportation.
Resolutions in memoriam of their late
comrade, Arthur II. Hooke, were unani
mously adopted. The resolutions appear
in another column.
Lieutenant W. W. Gordon offered the fol
lowing resolution, which was unanimously
adopted :
Jiesolved, That as comrades of the late
Arthur H. Hojke, w r e thank the Sisters of
St. Joseph’s Hospital for their efficient care
for his comfort, aud assure them we appre
ciate the tender sympathy which sustained
him iu long hours of anguish and despon
dency—which soothed his dying moments.
Their lives illustrate the poet’s idea that
“The quality of mercy is not strained;
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath; it is twice blessed;
It blesseth liim tint gives and him that takes.”
A. State vent a« to that
Ca*e.” I
* Savannah, Juno 7, 1876. ]
Jbditor Momma Hexes:
I was surprised at the contents of a local i
article which appeared in your columns ii
the issue of the News of this date, and whilt
I feel that I am trespassing too much upoi
your valuable time and apace, I at the same
time feel it my duty to correct the impres
sion or impressions which may have been
created iu this community by said article.
I sta e at the outset thLt injustice or op
pression has not been practiced upon Mr.
Quinan, but, on the contrary, that he has
been treated with a kindness which he
should be the first man to step to the front
and testify to.
The facts of the case are: in the latter
part of May, there being a number of liquor
dealers within the city selling liquor without \
a license, and in justice to those who had i
takeD out their license, and also m con- I
formity to the Tax Ordinance, the Mayor
instructed me to push up delinquents, as
nearly five months of indulgence had been
allowed to those in default.
Instructions were to place twenty-five or
thirty of said delinquents on the docket at
a time,summonses to be served so as to allow
sufficient or reasonable time for parties to
call up to the office and settle "with the
Treasurer before the date appointed for
trial of the cases, and in every instance
where parties were docketed aDd called and
made satisfactory settlement before said
date, then said case or cases were marked
“ settled.” iThere was in this, as is plainly
discernible, a disposition to treat every one
with kindness). Iu pursuance of c&rrsing
out the instructions as above issned, I com
menced to docket delinquents for Friday,
May 26, 1876. Quite a Dumber came up and
paid, and their cases were marked “settled.'*
Others did not do so, among that number
Mr. Quiuan.
Mr, Quinan on Thursday, the 25th May,
called upon the Mayor and informed him
that he had an engagement out of tbe city
the following day, and askod that his case
would sot be called np, but that tho same
be continued till Friday, the 2d June, prom
ising that before that date he would
call and take out his license. The request
was granted.
Friday, June 21, 1876, the case of Quinan
was called up, and Mr. Quinau faikd to put
in an appearance, and the sentence was
entered against his name: “Fined $25 and
take out a license, or thiriy days iu jail.”
This sentence was pronounced Friday, the
2dJuue, and Mr. Quinan was allowed till
Monday, the 5th June, to call on the Treas
urer and make “satisfactory settlement.”
The charge made against Mr. Quinan and
others is as follows: “Violation of city ordi
nance, failing or refusing to take out a city
license for tlie sale of liquor for the year
1876, while at the same time being engaged
in the sale of the same w’.thin the corporate
limits.” Mr. Quinan and a few others failed
to make “satisfactory settlement” by Mon
day, tbe 5th instant, and commitments were
made out, and Mr. QuiDan went to jail. Ho
was there but a short time before tho fact
was brought to the knowledge of the Mayor
that there was illness in Mr. Quiuan’s fam
ily. and the Mayor released him tempo
rarily.
Yesterday morning (6th instant) Mrs.
Quinan sent her little boy, a bright little
fellow, to see me, with the exact amount of
the price of a liquor license, and asked that
the fine and costs be remitted. I conversed
with the Mayor upon the subject, aud the
Mayor said: “Yes; tell the little boy to pay
Mr. Johnson for the license, aud mark the
case on the docket ‘settled; all fine and cost
remitted;’” which w r as done.
Now, Mr. Editor, before I conclude let me
ask the citizens of the city of Savannah if
the above statement of facts bear out tho
assumption that Mr. Quinan has been un
kindly or unjustly dealt with.
Having no interest in this matter farther
than to correct false impressions,
Very respectfully,
E. A. Silva.

A Bold Theft.
Ou Tuesday evening, Mr. T. P. Alston, who
had been out with the Hussars at the
funeral of Mr. A. H. Hooke, returned to his
home ou the corner of Bull and Perry
streets, and as was his custom, hitched his
horse in front ot the house, from which
place his groom usually took him to the
stable. About nine o’clock it was discov
ered that the horse had not been taken to
the stable, and upon an invesi'gation the
animal was found in Perry street lane minus
saddle and bridle. It seemB that Borne bold
thief had unhitched tho horse and taken
him into the lane, (passing in close
proximity to Dr. L. C. Strong’s night
bell, without the knowledge of Stuart
Sanders, the obliging night clerk,)
where he stripped him of saddle and
bridle and left him. Thorough search has
been made for the ihief, aud, though ihe
caso has been put in tho hands ot expe
rienced detectives, no trace was obtained of
the missing articles up to last night. This
one of the boldest robberies we have
heaid of for some time and was. probably,
pe petrated by some one who was aware of
the custom of the groom in regard to taking
the animal to the stable.

A New Way to Kill Flea..
Rather an amusing and somewhat dan
gerous experiment was tried yesterday by a
party occupying a store on Bay street. It
seems that there were a great number of
lleas in the store, and it was suggested to a
clerk to pour naptha, or ga wrlino, or some
thing of that kind on the floor, as it was
stated the fumes would kill them.
He was, however, cautioned uot to
ht a match near the place nn-
the fluid had sufficiently evaporated,
bat he was rather impatient, andafter wait
ing a few minutes, struck a match and
threw it where the oil had been poured. In
an instant an immense blaze shot np from
the floor, causing a perfect stampede in the
entire building, and attracting a large
crowd to the front of the store. Fortu
nately, tbe “conflagration” lasted only a
moment, and no damage beyond the fright
to tbe oconpanta was oooagioned,
