They are always found oil the alert at

in these social reunions their hospi
tality is unsurpassed. This anniver
sary celebration was all that could be
desired. At 2 o'clock P. :.!., Lambert's
brass band, uum-bering thirteen pieces,
marched to the house of Rescue No. 2,
where the boys, were in waiting to the
number of forty-Jive men. Wh-n the
