MONUMENTAL. BENEFIT We are
yratified 10 announce that Monumental
Engine Company, No. 6, on the Divide,
are going to have a grand benefit given
them at Piper's Opera House, on Fri
day evening, May 10th, by the citizen:
Of Gold Hill and Virginia. 4 very
interesting and attractive entertain'
Jnent will be given oil the occasion,
and in due time we will announce the
programme thereof. No fire company
in this county is more deserving of a
rousing benefit than SKIS boys, and
we hope 10 see them have one. Every
body can afford to take at least one
ticket. Recollect that il was SKIS
boys who got second water on the fire
of 4 week ago just back of the Yellow
Jacket works, although they had to
run all the way from the summit Of
the Divide to do it. They showed
their good will and gave efficient
assistance on that occasion, same as
they are ready to do on all SINH
lar occasions. 1t is but a fair return
of favorS to see that their benefit is an
acceptable and substantial one.
