and Sccre-
lary uoeaman in me en" -s.
C haii man
Jacob Gable, 'of the ceran. itce appeintls,
te confer with the committee of cennci Id
reported that the conference had been he h
and prepositions submitted by the firemen
(as already published), but they rccciwd
no satisfaction from the ceuucilmen. men
Mr. Cox, of councils aud also of ived
union, being called upon reported the re
cent action of councils en the tire depart
ment (as has been fully published iu the
Iktelligunceu) and he said that though
as a member of councils he did nil in his
power te prevent such action, he believed
it was the duty, of all lircmen te assist
councils as much as possible iu making the
new system a success. He explained that
the city proposed te rent the houses aud
apparatus of some of the companies, elect
engineers, etc., who will be paid salaries,
and run the department entirely.
Mr. Joel Haines, of the American, ex
chief engineer, was at a less te knew if
this contemplated a continuance of the
company organizations, and their owner
ship of their present property ; lie did net
want te obstruct the city's purposes but
the Atneiican would net allow its engine
te go into irresponsible hands.
Mr Jacob Wilhelm, of the Humane, re
ported that his company had lately
resolved te neither lease nor leau any of
its property te the city ; if the municipality
wants te run a paid lire department let it
buy and build the necessary equip
ment; it ' can buy the Humane
house, but enough would certainly
be asked for it. He was In favor cf
the resolution already passed, giving
notice that the department would go out
of service if the appropriations were net
increased, except that the time given te
the city was tee long ; he would have the
dee.-s of the engine houses nailed up with
in eighty days instead of six months. As
te councils he thought that anybody that
would de one thing and at the next meet
ing turn around and reconsider their ac ac
tieu needed watching.
A. H. Hammend, of the Washington,
reported that as yet his company had
taken no action in the matter ; they would
likely at the next meeting.
Mr. P. S. Geedman, of the Shifller, said
that his company would held its regular
meeting en Tuesday next, aud determine
what action te take ; the members weie
generally agaiut the course of councils :
they might rent their room but would net
lease the apparatus.
Mr. Gable, of the Sun, ceunselled med
eratien and no decisive steps until the final
action of the city government ba eflicially
determined upon.
Wilhelm again took the fleer aud indulg
ed iu a long tirade against councils, the
ignorance and inconsistency of its mem
bers, aud predicted that at the next meet
ing the call system would be abandoned en
account of its expense.
President Hewell thought with Mr. Ga
ble that it is best te take no action at
present.
Slier Smith, of the Friendship, also ex
chief engineer, understood the call system,
as he had seen it work, and if the object
in adeptintr it was te prevent
incendiary lires he did net think it would
have that effect. He did net think that
volunteer firemen arc as a ruie incendi
aries. The class of men who fire
these buildings (if the lires were incen
diary) were as a rule theso who have no
employment, and in his epini't they
would, if the system is adopted, continue
their work iu order te get regular employ
ment as firemen.
Mr. Haines was iu favor of gracefully
submitting te councils and giving the new
scheme a fair trial. As te the hard
knocks received lately by the American
he believed that a great deal of the dis
creditable conduct charged upon its mem
bers was due te the discussion ever the
abaudmcut of the volunteer system, which
had led some of its members te the con
clusion that if the volunteer department
is te be abandoned it is best te break it up
as seen as possible. A certain class of
citizens opposing the department, its use
fulness is destroyed, and this being the
case it had better go out of existence and
tbe new system take its place.
Wilhelm again took the fleer and
scorned the idea of he city keeping up a
paid fire department when it new regu
larly fails te pay the appropriation in due
time. He closed with an attack upon the
newspapers for speaking in favor of a
paid department. "Tie men running it,''
he said, " arc Bebby Clark, of the Intel
ligence"., Jesh Lyte, of the Examiner,
and Snowy Kendrick, of the Ncib Era, the
gospel sheet en the corner."
Haines said the volunteer department is
already discharged ; Wilhelm thought
then the doers ought te be nailed up ;
President Hewell suggested postponement
of actieu ; Mr. Gable faveied enlighten
ment of ignorant ceuucilmen ; Mr. Haines
was opposed te lircmen lobbying as undi;
nified ; and Mr. Geedman thought the
union would go out of existence before
long, as he firmly believed that the call
system would seen be in working order, as
iu his opinion it should be. It was bis
most earnest desire that the volunteer
system be abolished and the new system
be put in force.

Man Found Dead In YVusliingtmi.
Washington Borough, Oct, 12, 1851.
it. Deputy Corener J. P. Frank:
" Please come down immediately te held
an inquest ever the body of a man found
dead this morning. Call at my place when
you arrive, as the case is in or near my
residence. Come as seen as you can as
the family is desirous te lay the body out.
We can get a jury when you sec .me.
" Respectfully, J. L. Siiuman."
The above dispatch was received this
iiieruiug by Squire Frank, and its con
tents are the only points yet found out
about the matter.
Perils if Ititilreatling.
It is a wonder that mere accidents de net
happen en the railroad. A great number
of freight cars arc without platforms, and
he men either have te stand en top of the
cais or en the bumpers, the latter being
an exceedingly dangerous posititien, as
there is no telling when a coupling may
break, and iu this case the person standing
there runs great danger of being jerked
off the train. Especially at this time with
the cars from New Jersc y and the west.
Neatly all the E. It. It. cars have nlat forms
en. It will be remcuibared that a short
time age, Mr. Jerry Leng, a brakeman,
met lus death en one of these cars that had
no platform.
Supcrserviceable 1'ellce.
It is complained that some of our police
men have anew way of arresting vagrants.
Sonie time age a beggar went into the
yard of a well known citizen aud asked
for something te eat, which was given te
him. He also received permission te sit
en the perch te eat what was given him.
While doing se a policeman cutercd-the
yard aud :.rrcsted him. The lady of the
house requested that the beggar net be
token iute custody. Thereupon the officer
swore iu a manner that was disgraceful.
At another time, when a tramp had
been engaged te de some work at the house
where the above incident occurred another
policeman," well-known as the "tramp
catcher," entered and attempted te arrest
the man, but upon being informed that he
was working thereafter demurring a little
while, went his way. By an act of As
sembly passed in 1877, begging in this
state is a crime, as is also swearing. But
at the same time the officer, before arrest
ng the beggcrs, must see him beg or have
a warrant. Iu neither case did the above
officers see the men beg nor had they war
rants. Arresting without warrauts is tee
freely done here.
Tribute te a Deceased Member.
In the course of the meeting upon the
announcement of Mr. Haines and at the
motion of Mr. Geedman the union resolved
" That in the death of Geerge J. Kicffer,
a delegate from the American, the union
loses an active and progressive member
and the department an energetic aud ear
nest volunteer firemen ; that we extend
te the bereaved family of the deceased the
sympathy of this union, and refer them te
Him alone who can give consolation in the
hour of dire alfiictien ; that these resolu
tions be spread upon the minutes of this

LANCASTER DAILY
AN OLD TAVKKN SIGN.
Wm. ntt, Earl et Cbatbain."
Henry C. Demuth, tobacconist, is raak
iug some extensive improvements te the
building Ne. 118 East King street, and
fitting it up as -a residence for his son
Ferd. A. Demuth. During the progress of
the work an old tavern sign has been
taken down from the garret, where i has
beer, stored away for the past forty years.
The sign is of the old-fashioned pattern,
about four feet in width and five feet in
height, such as used te swing in frost of
almost every tavern. It has painted en
both sides of it nearly full length portraits
of Wm. Pitt, the Earl of Chatham.. The
painting was done by the late Jacob
Eichholtz, Lancaster's most distinguished
portrait painter, and was probably in its
day a fine work of art, but the storms of
many winters have eaten away a great
part of the paint and left the wooden
beard en which it was painted almost
bare. The earl is represented seat
ed at a table en which are piled
some papers, and in his hand he
holds a manuscript. He is dressed in
full court dress, including a large white
wig, a white neck-cloth, a highly orna
mented red coat, kuce-breeches and white
stockings. Above the portrait are tbe
words " Wm. Pitt. Earl of Chatham, "
aud in one corner is the name of the artist
"Jacob Eichholtz, pinxt. " On one side,
the name Chatham, is spelled "Chat
harm. " Belew the portrait hangs a nar
row beard en which is painted the name
of the proprietor of the tavern '.' Henry
Deffenbaugh. "
Hew long before 1808 Henry Deffen
baugh kept the tavern we de net knew,
but from that time en until 1838 he ap
pears te have been proprietor, as the pre
perty is assessed in bis name and his name
appears aise in the list of sixty city tavern
keepers license in that year.
It is said that the first anti-Masen meet
ing ever held in Lancaster county was held
at the Wm. Pitt hotel. It is represented
as being a small affair, but the meetings
held' there afterwards were "great out
pouring of the people," and anti-Masonry
swept the county, and kept control of it
for many years.
In 1839 or 18-10 th nreperty was bought
by Mr. Demuth. who remodeled it as a
home for his met her, who died in 1841, in
the -97th year of her age. Since then tbe
property has remained in the possession of
the Demuth family.

The Dlstmcnlshed Aather Passes Away
Suddenly this Morning.
New Yerk, Oct. 12 Dr. J. G. Helland
the author, died suddenly this morning.
Jesiah Gilbert Helland, M. D., was
born in Belchertown, Mass., July 24, 1819,

tice of medicine for journalism. He was
school superintendent of Vicksburg, Miss ;

lican, and soeu became one of the most
popular and prolific of American littera
teurs. He never reached the first rank of
our poets, novelists, essayists and critics,
but his talents were varied and his
style popular. He wrote the " History
of Massachusetts ; " the Bay Path,"
a novel ; "Bitter Sweet," a dramatic poem,
and " Kathrina ;" and his "Geld Feil
Hammered from Popular Proverbs " and
" Timethy Titcernb's Letters te Yeung
People " were homilies with geed moral
tendencies, which achieved an immense
circulation and have had a widespread in
fluence for geed. But it has been as con-
ing te the Cenlury)since its establishment,
and of which he is part owner, that Dr.
Helland has achieved his greatest success.
He had the gift of popular editorial man
agement in large degree and made this
magazine a phenomenal success en both
sides of the ocean. Besides his discrim
inating management of it he has Lccn a
steady contributor te it, and " Arthur
Bonnicastle, " " Seveueaks " and ether
serial novels in it were from hispen, be
sides regular editorials and critiques. Dr.
II. had a beautiful summer home among
the " Thousand Isles " which he called
" Bennicastle." Ens. Intelligencer.
