Considerable damupo was done to the fur niture. Fire started in the butcher shop of Morris Bliimticl.l, at 45 Belmont avenue, In which the damage was confined to the interior of the pla e. The blaze at which there was both damage and lots of excite- ment was that which started in the apartments of Joseph Wolf, at 646 Stone avenue, the building being owned by Israel Berezln. The fire spread to the adjoining two story and attic frame dwelling at t44 Stone avenue.

MSpeclal to the Eagle.) Port Jefferson, L. November 16 A 9-foot shark strayed into the harbor here on Saturday, and now doubtless wishes he had kept out. Be that as It may, the shark is. now a dead one. The monster was seen by Robert Walker, a coal dealer, with an office on the shore of tho harbor, and, with a companion, Mr.

Walker set out to capture him. They had only a hoe to use as a weapon, but they were not dismayed by a little thing like that, and after a hard fight, succeeded in inflicting a death wound. The battle took place in shoal water, and the shark was at a decided disadvantage, but. he put up a stiff light and went to his death with his colors flying, so to speak. It is the theory of all the old salts hereabouts that the shark was chilled and bewildered by finding himself In the landlocked harbor and did not know what to do when attacked, but he seemed to know enough to fight hard for his life.

After the shark had been killed and towed ashore, a good sized crowd gathered and looked him over. Then the huge carcass, which measured 9 feet and 4 inches in length, was loaded on a wagon, and with John Lawrence, a local business man on the driver's seat and a big fish horn tooting, a circuit of the business section was made, to enable all to see the biggest fish that was ever taken in the harbor.

At 10 o'clock this morning President Charles Crabba christened the Rockaway Beach Hospital and Dispensary In the presence of a large number of residents of the Beach, who are seeing the realization of their fondest hopes in the construction of the hospital.

The christening exercises consisted mainly of placing the copper box in the cornerstone, which was laid by Borough President Greaser with appropriate ceremonies on August 9. The walls ore now rising, and as Iho box had not been put In Its resting place, tt was suggested at the last meeting of the board of directors to make this event one In which the people of tho resort should participate. The occasion was therefore called the christening, and after President Crabbe of the hospital had placed the copper box in the niche he said: "I name this building the Rockaway Beach Hospital and Dispensary," and then In turn each one of the directors took the trowel and spread a layer of mortar over tho box and the large stone coping was lowered over It. The directors then repaired to an adjacent hotel, wheo an Informal reception was hold. The hospital is being erected on a site forming the triangle at Hammel avenue and Bay Side place, et Hanimel Station, and will cost $45,000.

Tho site was generously donated for the purpose by Peter Wyckoff, the "millionaire farmer-philanthropist of Bushwick," and is valued at $18,000. The building will be three stories and a basement high and will be equipped with every modern facility essential to an Institution of Its kind. SHOT IN THE SIDE.

Policeman Charles A.

Berberich, who lived with his wife and child at 7 Windsor place, and who was attached to the l'arkville station, crime in contact with the wire himself, in some unexplained manner, and was instantly killed. He had been near the wire for more than twenty minutes and had chased a score or more of children away, but after the children had gone home and Berberich was alone, the woman and two children hove In sight, "I'on't stop there, madam," courteously said Berberich, and then he suddenly toppled over. It early yesterday afternoon when Mr. Moen, looking from his front window, saw the dangling wire. It.

was a telephone wire, and had fallen across an electric light wire. He saw a bevy of children on thSIr way to Sunday school, poking sticks at the wire. After cautioning the l.ttle ones, Mr. Moen telephoned to the Parkville station, asking that they attend to the matter. Lieutenant Kelly at once communicated with tho electric I'gbt company to shut off thai current in i ho direction of Parkville, and to preserve order near by, ordered Berberich, who was on reserve duty, to go to the scene ami take charge.

Mr. Moen rushed from his house when lie saw the policeman fall. Berberich liccmed lifeless, and Moen made preparations for carrying him Into his own home. Tnen he telephoned to the Parkville station. Ambulance Surgeon Ives of the Kings County Hospital hurried to the scene, but when he got there Berberich was dend.

Dr. Ives gave It out that he believed Berberich met death instantly. The policeman's body was then removed to his home. The officials of the Parkville station give Berberich an excellent record. He bad been on the force for more than eleven years, and was regarded as a model policeman.

At the Flatbush court -it was said that Berherich's arrests were a'l good ones. Most of them were convictions for felonies. He had few misdemeanors. CHASED TWO REAL FOXES. Reynards Were Too Swift for the Meadowbrook Hounds, However, and Got Away.

November 16 Men em ployed by Contractor A. D. Hobbs, who is laying the foundation for a large new hotel at Ocean Beach, on Fire Island, opposite this village, recently dug up some very singular relics of some ancient age.

They were levelling a knoll with a horse and scraper, when the latter came in contact with a hard, unyielding sub stance. Investigation showed that they had unearthed two old fireplaces, built of red Btono. Upon ono of them still hung an old crane. There is no one In these parts who can account for the ex istence of thcte evidences of former dwellers there. Within the memory of the oldest men in the life saving service or on the -bay there is no recollection of any building having stood where the fireplaces were unearthed, nor does any one remember having heard of tales that would throw light upon the msstery.

The find has created quite a good deal of Interest hereabouts. YOUNG HART RECOVERING. Waiter Who Shot Him Is Held With out Bail.
