The William Connoll Hose company No. 9 opened their handsome remod elled quurters last evening for the first time, and in honor of tho event gave n fine drill and banquet. Their quarters are situated on Pitts ton nvenue, near city line, nnd now are the finest of any quarters In the city. The building is two-stories high nnd built of brick, and recently fifteen feet has been added, making the building thirty-live feet front by fifty feet deep. The second story, which formerly wns one large room, has been converted into three rooms, viz., n uniform room, sleeping loom, con taining four cots, nnd a handsome parlor, recently furnished, which Is adorned by pictures of William Con nell, E. II. nipple, ex-Chief P. J. Hlckey, ex-Chlpf II. F. Ferber and Charles Slmroll. On the first floor there is room for a three horse hitch, nnd the new ad dition will hold a two-horse hitch. In the cellar Is a large furnace for heat ing tho building nnd there is nlfio n flfty-two foot hose wash rack, con connected with the drying tower, which Is fifty-three feet high. After the hose is washed on the rack it is pulled to the tower, which can ac comodate 6,500 feet of hos. Beyond the drying tower Is the practice tower, five stories high, used In practicing with the new scaling ladders recently purchased. LIFE SAVERS AT WORK. At 9 o'clock the William Connell Life Saving team, in charge of Cap tain Sterling Simrell, recently returned fiom the New York Life Saving school at Utlca, gave a marvelous exhibition of scaling walls with their new scal ing ladders.

They constructed a chain ladder fiom the ground to the fourth story In one minute and thirty seconds. It tool; them only three minutes to scale the building and have the hose in position, and six men in one minute nnd fifteen seconds raised a chain ladder and were in a position to light fire. They also showed how insensi ble men are rescued and pnve a won derful exhibition of sliding down a rope from the fifth story of the tower with another man on their backs. At 10 o'clock tho members nnd in vited guests, numbering eighty-live, sat down to a sumptuous banquet. Cuslck's orchestra of seven pieces fur nished the music. After the repast, Charles Simrell arose and appointed C. G. Boland chairman, and Mr. Poland, in a neat speech, welcomed the city olllclals and guests, and called upon his honor, the mayor, who said, In part: MAYOR'S REMAIiKS. "Wo have no paid nro department, but have a volunteer organization that Is second to none in the United States, and one that nil citizens can well feel proud of. Take, for instance, the Hie on Wyoming avenue, July 3. How well they fought! They showed courage, bravery and endurance. The city is changing rapidly, and the fire depart ment must also eventually change. Tho best plan will be adopted, whether Mr. Chittenden's or Mr. Oliver's I can not say, but till then the people can safely rely on the .best volunteer or ganization In the United States." He was followed by Select Council men Joseph Oliver, T. J. Coyne and T. C. Melvln.

THE THERMOMETER WAS AMBITIOUS At 3 O'clock Yesterday Afternoon the Thermometer Had Reached 07 Degrees in the Shade. To those misguided individuals who fondly Imagine that Monday was a warm day, yesterday came as a sur prise. It wasn't a partlculatly pleas:' nt surprise, but it wus a surprise never theless. The low mark for the day was CI degrees in the shade as compared to GS degrees tho preceding day. It was 61 degrees early in the morning, but tho temperature wns ambitious. It would not be kept down and nbout 3 o'clock In the afternoon renched tho sublime height of 97 degrees in the shade, higher than which It has not rien at nnv time this summer. The average temperature for the day was 7f degrees, which really Is ptetty fair. Tho effects of the heat could be seen all over the city. The weather could not fall to have a depressing effect nnd the pedestrians who were on the streets during the fiercest heat dragged themselves along as though bereft of nil ambition. Ninety-seven degrees In the shade warm enough, but In tho heat of the sun tho mercury went up to nbout 115. The stone pavement act as magnifi cent reflectors, nnd the heat reflected from their smooth surfnos addeel several degrees to the general warmth. Yesterday's heat brought out on the streets several specimens of the Scran ton shirt waist man, all ot whom looked cool nnd comfortable compared to their suffering, pei spiting brethren, in coats nnd vests. Tho shirt waist man is beginning to gain a strong foothold all over the country now, and Scranton men undoubtedly will not be the last to grasp at this present fad of combining a neat nppearance with comfort. The thermometer at the Delaware and Hudson station registered AS tle grees nt 4 o'clock yesterday after noon. At 7 o'clock last evening It was S9 degrees nt Jenkins' drug store, cor ner of Main avenue and Jackson street. LAST NIGHT'S FIRE. Joyce Barn, at Fifth Avenue and Second Street, Damaged.

The barn wns located nmong many other buildings, and the fiiemen ex perienced much trouble In extinguish ing the flames. The building was par tially destroyed, together with several vehicles which were In the building. The horses were resetted. The Eagles, Franklins nnd Columblas responded to the alarm.

James Fisher and Louis Zellnsky, Two of the "Trusted" Men, Tako Advantage of tho Confidence That Wns Reposed in Them nnd Shin Over tho Wall by Means of a Plank and Rope Escape Was Carefully and Cleverly Planned. No Trace of Their Whereabouts. Jnmes Fisher and Louis Zellnsky, two of the "trusted" prlioners at tho Lackawanna county Jail, scaled the wnll of tho Jail yard, early yesterday morning nnd made good their escape. No trace of their whereabouts had been learned at an early hour this morning, Fisher was sent up for a year for robbery, and had six months yet to serve. Zellnsky was sentenced to nine months Imprisonment, June 4, for lar ceny and receiving. The former is a native of Baltimore, but nt the time of his an est had been in Scrnnton for several months, mnkln;; his head quarters at Horn's hotel, on Franklin avenue. Zellnsky halls fiom Carbon dale. Both were men of more than ordi nary intelligence nnd extremely well behaved, and on account ol their be ing "long-term" prisoners were given two of the most Important of the positions allotted to prisoners. Fisher was head runner and Zelln sky general utility man about tho llre loom, cellar nnd clothes room. He had complete charge of the latter room and wns ptolded with a key that admitted him to tin basement, where the clothing Is stored. PLANNED BY FISHER. The escape was In all likelihood planned by Fisher nnd as results show It was well planned. Zellnsky was taken Into the scheme, because of his possession of the key to the cellar, where was stored a twenty-foot plank that had been used as a swing ing scaffold not long ago when some white washslng was being done. This plank and a fifty-foot cord, such as Is used to support window weights, were the means of getting over the wall. Where the cortl came from, the Jail olllclals cannot say. but think It likely that It was lying around the cellar somewhere. Among Fisher's duties was that of helping the keepers to get out the gang that works on the road. Some new men were to go out yesterday morning, and Zellnsky was roused to secure clothes for them. Between 5 and 5.30 o'clock, when preparations for breakfast for the road gang were on, the two, It is figured out, slipped out through the kitchen, which they could do without exciting any suspicion, nnd, securing the plank nnd rope by drawing them from the cellar through the window, near which they had pre viously been placeel from the Inside by Zellnsky, carried them to the wall neur the gate, placed the plank against the wnll, which Is twenty-five feet high nt that point, tied one end of the 'rope to the top of the plank nnd threw the other end over the top of the wall, and then climbing to the top of the wall along the plank, let them seles down on the other side by means of the rope. ESCAPE DISCOVERED. Their escape was discovered within half an hour or so after their depart ure. Part of Fisher's duties Is to clean up the warden' office and usually he does this Immediately after breakfast for the road gang Is served. When he did not put in an appear ance ns usual yesterday morning, a keeper went to look for him, and, falling to find him nbout the Jail, went out In the yard. The discovery of the plank and rope passage across tho wall led to an Immediate census of the Inmates, with the result of finding that Fisher and Zellnsky were miss ing. Warden Simpson sent out in nil di rections the nttnehes of the Jail who knew the prisoners and made free use Seasonable Items at Seasonable Prices. e All nf our Nerlicee shirts H are on sale today at greatly reduced prices, we don't want a shirt left when the season closes.

Fisher was arrested January 5, last, for robbing Walter S. Weaver of $2.50 at a saloon on Franklin nenue. Chief Robllng was the prosecutor. January 2'), Fisher pleaded guilty to larceny from tho person before Judge Edwards nnd was sentenced to puy n line of $1 nnd costs, nnd spend one year in the county Jail. Zellnsky wns prosecuteel by his brother-in-law, Peter Ruba, for steal ing $20. He was arrested April SI, l'JOO, nnd on Juno plend'd guilty be fore Judge Edwarels. His sentence was $1 nnd costs, and Imprisonment for nine months. It wns learned yesterday that Zelln sky borrowed $3 last Friday from a fellow-prisoner. As prisoners nro nl lowed ti keep their money on their persons the Jail officials do not know but what both men have Milllclent to carry them to a good distance. Last week a prisoner was given a bath by Fisher. Some time later the bathed prisoner set up a howl that $20 had been taken from his clothing while he wns In the tub. Fisher was searched, but no trace of the money could be found. Warden Simpson Is now of tho belief that Fisher took the money and secreted it safely.
