CAPE MATS FIRES. Continued From Laat Thursday's Edition. Freni Tarah.r".

Ofit the alarm, and brought the entire populace to the seeue. The writer of thi*. along with many cltlxena, ascended * to the npper floar 'of the Oeean ■ House ^ from where the smoke sad flame* were ^ At flrat it was believed that flic fire could veadt'y be extinguished, «nd had the city Uecri iu porarssion of fire apparatus little dtfl\rulty -wfiuld have been expertenceiidn MfWuing the flumes jj with comparatively small damage to the building iu which ibe fire or'urinsted. .

The only menu me then waa a line of with bucket*, and a n"ltle efforl wa* madr to keep the fire from spread- ' to the adjacent bfllldlnga. With courage horn of desperation, the men with buckets atoed In the tace of the ' name* for nearly two hour*. Juat a* they were beginning 10 hope that tbey might be sncceaaful In «av|ng Congress and the Centre House. lh<se two building* burst into flame* a* though from spontaneous combustion. Congress Hall and the Centre on fire, all attempts to stay the progress of the devouring element were futile. The strong South-west wind carried the heat and flames before b ac(oas the very centre of the town. The stout. e*t heart* quailed, and there seemed to nothing to do-bnt lo stand by and *ee the enti e city reduced to ashen. When midday arrived, the Ocean "hour, Congica* Hall, the Centre Hoov, the New Athrntic, the Merchant-. Hotel. .—I IP.

Had our city Authorities the wisdom to provide such s fire s* we now hsvc, Utu conwould never have taken place. after this Are the city reorganised it* fire department, and sincc iliat time ll ha* been Improved from to lime. Since the Are of 1878 several Are* have broken out, but tbey si way* been extinguished in the incipient Matrra. It Is a source of great satisfaction to the property owners and others inicrclrai in Cape May, that our y is prepared to mce< such emergencies as these, and that It Is not within range of probabilltins that such a e calamity will ever visit Cape May again. . The New Turk papers have given space, thla sumtm-r to Cape Msy news than ever before.

We trunt that when another season oomes around our hotel men will see to that their hutlnaaa Is represented In New York papers, not alone sx a of recompense for (he favorable notice Oape Hay has received this sea-, »•", but aa a roatldr of busier** enterprise. The experience of this season has proven, beyond a doubt, that Cape May can command a liberal share of New York patronage'. If she will only put in her claim for it through the column* of that great city'* journals. A Camden, N. J.. man ha* invented and t* having built an ocean tricycle.
