returned to their respective Engine Houses.
The Fire Kings turned out 65 men, the Res
cue 50 men, the Pilot S3, and the Hook and
Ladder Company 81 men. The companies
were in uniform-with their machines in
splendid order. The departme 1t was never
in more effective condition. Balls ct Lahr-
mann's and the German Theatre conclude
the ceremonies Of the day.
To the PUBLIc.-The proprietor Of
Webb's china store wishes to make this pub.
lie announcement, that he has marked all
his goods down to the lowest figure-near-
ly as low Is before the war, and is closing
out those splendid table sets at . great sac
r,fice. He also wishes to be distinctly un-
derstood, that in offering his large stock Of
choice silver-plated goods he defics compe-
tition. They must be sold. The styles
are all elegant and Of the best manufacture.
All arc invited to call and examine. Toilet
goods, lamps, mirrors, bird cages, etc., in
great variety-selling at sacrifice, to con-
form with the price Of gold.
PRzEs PRlzEs - truth is stranger
than fiction, and twice as reliable; and it is
. fact that If you want $500 worth Of silver
ware all you got to do is to take hundred
cent greenback and proceed to Flagg's "In-
stant Relief" Gift Enterprise Establishment
on Brady street, first door above Sd, pur-
chase ticket and draw the aforesaid goods.
II you use the proper discretion in selecting
your ticket you can't fail. Besides drawing
that elegant prize you get bottle Of Prof
Flagg's Instant Relef-that old and popular
Family medicine, worth twice the price oi
the ticket This is the rarest chance YET
offered to the public. Walk up, gentlemen
to the place where you get your money 4
worth and more too, and help yourselves be-
fore gresnbacks get any higher than they
are to day. Many Of our citizens can bca1
testimony to the profitable investments they
) have made in that line, and none can com
plain that they have not got the full worth
Of their money and more too.
