The Fire Department.

Monday next. February 3, will be the annivcr-
sary of tine reorganization of the Fire Depart
mcnt ON Its present basis, and rs such will be OBJ
served BY it as a holiday. At 10 O'Clock the COM
panics viii appear on parade, and after marching
through the city. will proceed to the premises of
il. Dowsett, Esq, near the prison, where n feast
will be provided for the members and their in
vitcd guests.
The Department, as now organized, consists Of
three fire engine companies, one hook and ladder
and one hose company-in all about two hundred
and forty MEMBERS. The engines are all of the
latest and most approved Boston make, two of
them being nearly new and each being oonsid-
cred among the most powerful machines ever con-
structcd.
The executive board of the Department consists
of the following gentlemen;
c +. WILLIAMS, Chief Engineer.
William Il. Wright, Is. Assistant.
James l. DOwsett, ri Assistant
Charles T. Gulick, Secretary.
William Hughes, Foreman Of No. r
James :. Lem0n, Foreman Of No. :.
Edward r.. Boyd, Foreman Of No. T.
Robert Levers, Foreman Pacific Hose Company.
George W. Houghtailing, Foreman Protection Hook
and Ladder Company.
Fire Warlens-Jerome Feary, r. GiIlland, James
s. Lemon, and II. G. Crabbe.
As now organized, the Department is n credit
to the city, and though fires occur here very sell
dom. vet the engines and apparatus are as well
kept and always as ready for use as in cities where
they are more frequent. Our exemption from
fires is owing, in no small degree, to this fact
and our citizens who are not members, ought TO
aid and encourage the Department in every pos
siblc way and on every opportunity.

Those who vote this ticket will be sure of Sc
curing a delegation opposed to PAPER money in
any form while those who vote the opposition
ticket may find themselves deceived, and during
the next two years see some paper money scheme
saddied on to the country. No one now knows
that any such proposition will be brought forward,
but it may be; and if it is, it is safer to have del
egatcs whom the people can trust.
The facts should be known, and no one should
vote without being thoroughly posted up regard
ing the views Of those whom he votes for.

BANANA FIBRE--By the following, it appears that
attention is being turned 10 the banana or plantain
for the purpose of furnishing a material for manutac-
ture of paper and cordage- Should it come into use
this group could supply thousands of tons of the
material, which now is considered as worthless
PLANrAIN AND BANANA fIBRE.-A Jamaica news
paper says that = gentleman IN that island has
received "a letter from eminent manufacturers in New
York, concerning some samples of plantain and ba-
mana fibre recently forwarded to this city. One of
the manufacturers, who writes on behalf of the others,
states THE character of the llantain and banana
fibre, has been pronounced by leading =" tiaxmen'' rs
quite equal to this material for textile purposes.
Paper men say it would make the finest descriptions
of paper, but think it even too good for the purpose.
Others say ii would Ice invaluable for cordage and
all agree that a great deal of money would be made
by it if it could be supplied in sufficient quantity, and
at a reasonable COST
The fibre in question has been already tested prac-
tically in other countries. In England paper of the
finest quality, and as strong almost as parchment, has
been produced from the plantain fibre. Cordage has
been made from it, so strong, light, and durable, that
it has been pronounced the very best substance for the
purpose. AT the first Paris Exhibition it attracted
no small degree of attention, and received special
notice in the report prepared by the Council OF the
Exhibition, the result of which was that dealers and
manufacturers of note came down with liberal and
pressing offers to induce extensive shipments TO Eu-
rope. But the easy-going Jamaicans, with their
Characteristic apathy, neglected the opportunity thus
afforded them of adding a valuable article to their list
OF exports.
A gentleman who has lived in Jamaica informs us
that thousands of tons of this valuable fibre NIGH:
easily be exported from the island every year. What
is wanted for its preparation is some simple machine
for expressing the juice from the stalk of the plant
with expedition and thoroughness. American inyen-
tiveness could easily supply this want, and such n
machine would find employment not in jamaica only,
but throughout the whole of the tropical regions of
this continent, in all ofwhich the plantain and banana
flourish perennially, furnishing Il staple article of
food to the inhabitants, but in none of which is the
valuable stalk of plant converted into fibre or made
any use of whatever.-.N y. Spectator.

From the St. Thomas Times, February 12)
OBITUARY!

DIED, on last Saturday, night, and was on
the next Sunday afternoon followed to his I'M
timely grave by a large attendance of his fell
low citizens John Benners, Esq, born in st.
Thomas on the 22nd of May, 1917. He was a
widower, and leaves behind him four orphan
daughters.
For more than 20 years Mr.. Benners was
Editor of the st. TH0m@ TIdeade; in the great
er part of this period, the paperwas underline cen
sorship of the Police-master but as soon as this
sMackIe was removed by the press law of 18th
March, 1862, the paper was as we'll in form, as
in matter raised far above its former level.
Nevertheless, the liberty afforded by the new
press law was never abused by the lamented de-
ceased. His paper was never a vehicle for an
nonymous ibels, and when he thought it his duty
to animadvert upon any branch of the admins
%tration, his language was always digniied and
moderate. He was a friend and supporter of
order and government, but at the same time in
dependent in his way of thinking. This indie
pendence was perhaps never more Strikingly
illustrated than during the civil war in North
America, when he was a staunCh, but rather soil
tary advocate of the United States Govern
ment. The distinguishing feature in his char
actel was his love for st. Thomas; the interest,
welfare and happiness of lbs birth place was
what he had most at heart, and what in a COM
munity, where the weather. part is a floating for
eign population, often brought him in collision
with the selfish interests OF individuals and com
panies. But he had already during his lifetime
the satisfaction to see his e%xertions appreciated
by his townsfolks. He was since the beginning
of 1868 chosen member of the Colonial Council,
where he kept his seat until failing health com
PEELED him to retire last year. In the Council
he made himself conspicuous by the freedom
with which he gave utterance to the grievances
of St. Thomas, by the common sense and prac-
teal turn of his speeches. His influence on the
masses was therefore deseryedIy great, and to
his representations is principally due the alacrity
with which the people voted the annexation to
the United States.
The place his death leaves vacant in the
peoples hearts, will not easily be filled by an
other, so true, so u~nselfsh, so devoted it is
now he has gone we feel what we possessed and
what we have lost in him. God bless him
Honour to his memory I! He was the champion
