wa, for everything possible has been done to
make the celebration the most immense ever
held here.
In the matter in the decoration of buildings,
we have talked with a number os business men
and find them enthusiastic on the subject. The
following firms will decorate their buildings:
Smith, Rising " Co., Jacob Chrstmann, Nat.
City Bank, Vim. Hull, City Drug Store, Phillips
Bros, Osman IL Hapeman, First Nat. Bank
Lynch Il Beatty NJ Stiefel & Co., H. Walther,
Bowman, Forbes " Gehring and s. c. Barnett.
These are all We have had time to speak to on the
subject, ] but there is no doubt that the
rest will fail in, and make the city rs handsome
as money can make it Turner Hall will be
deliberately decorated as will also the Odd Eel
lows hall oa Court street. All who are dltlident
on the subject are earnestly urged to consider
the question. The decorations even to be hand
some need not be expensive. Flags can be had
in abundance ut little cost and the woods around
us will furnish endless quantities OF leaves for
wreaths, &c. In this connection, Mr.. Henry
Walther, with his usual public spirit, author
ICES US to say that he will furnish flags and
Chinese lanterns at cost. He has circulars with
price lists and sizes and will send to New York
for the goods ordered and supply them at
cost He asks nothing for his trouble, wishing
only that all goods ordered will be received, that
none be left on his hands. Orders, however,
must be in Monday morning ms they must be or
dered by Monday moons mail He has also cir
culars and information in regard to Chicago
firms where decorations can be obtained. The
dry goods stores, also, have endless quantities of
cheap flags which cost but little, but which
tastcfully arranged can be made quite attractive.
By Illuminating with Chinese lanterns there is
little danger of fire, and thus splendid illumin
alton in the evening is possible.
Remember that thousands of people will be
here on that day and the more attractive the city
the better they WILDE pleased. There is no need
of committee, but let every business man and
society in the city look after their own establish
ment, and more work will be done than by dozen
committees.
