Coming! Who? Why, the Adjutant.
He and his wife are movers, too. They
make things hum wherever they go.
They sing anything almost everything.

morning and Sunday night. At 3 p. m.

The firemen's ball held last Friday
night at the opera house was a very en
joyable event for those present. Tbe
number of tickets sold was only 57,
which, owing to the fact that Mr.
Garrigues gave them the use of the
opera house free, allowed a small
margin to be applied to the expense of
better equipment. This cause was truly
a worthy one and should have met with
a better rf sponse. No doubt the work
of the boys at the recent fire was
thoroughly appreciated by every person
in town, and the result of the sale of
tickets is regretted by them all. An
other occasion of this kind and we feel
confident amends will be made, and no
one will miss it.
