sincerity of the kind deeds doro to
our soldiers by the people of Phiia-
delphia and New York and Boston,
and we are sure those acts of fliend

recipients. It is by the inter
change of such cohrtesies that the
people of the two sections will come

that all the people look as q means

A joint meeting of Committees Of TIM
Common Council, the Board Of Trade,
the Chamber OF Commerce and the Board
Of Public Works, was held in the CouR-
Gil Chamber last night, for the purpose
Of taking proper action for patriotic
observance of the Centennial Fourth ct
July. Mayor Johnston presided.
Mr.. John Simpkinson stated that 1t
was intended 10 present handsome
silk flag for the finest ward display.
Colonel W. l.. Robinson thought II
possible that the cornerstone of tha
new Government Building might be laid
that day, and perhaps the Sinton Forum
would be tackled.
Colonel A. E. Jones was in favor OF .
regular old timer Of a jubilee. His pian
was to dress brigade Of men in Cont
send over lot Of men dressed after the
style of old Daniel Boone. He wanted
all the officers and soldiers of the war
for the Union 10 come with their uni
ferns; all this in connection with an
industrial display. Governor Hayes
must be on hand, says Colonel JOness
and we must have native CinclnnaLtan
orator, of the spread eagle order, to do
the Star-banged spanner business. Let
big guns from surrounding hills boom
forth, and the coming Of the God Of Day
be greeted with artillery's roar. This
he thought was about the way to scoop"
the boys.
Thos. Spooner moved that the Alder
men OF each ward act as Chairmen on
the Board Committees, and call meet
ing of their Committees next Saturday
night. Carried.
Mr.. Simpkinson moved that the Ward
