NOTES FROM THE g TENT.

The singing for the grand prize was
: grand singing.
Eben Jones was immense" So were
his Juveniles"
The grand chorus by all the competing
choirs" was conspicuous by its absence.
Juveniles, don't forget that Grown of
laurelr
Mr.. Bundy sang, late at night, little
ballad which touched many heart chords
in that large audience.
In the trial of music-reading, DR.. Jones
proved bass deceiver, while Evans pur
sued the even tenor of his way.
Many persons objected to spending so
much time on The Bridge" The man.
ayers should have put down pontoon,
and hurried over.
Some of the finest soprano singing we
have heard in long time was the sing
ing of Miss Walker, a niece of Mrs. Bun
dy
Bundy sang Pat Maloy," at the con-
cert. If old Mistress Maloy had been
present she would certainly have recog-
nized in Bundy her darlint-her long-lost
Pat.
Those who expected to hear excellent
piano playing by the Misses Burkley,
were not disappointed. The playing of
these ladies was one of the most pleasing
features of the entertainment
Judge Evans folks lost beautiful
lamp-mat, on the morning of the fourth.
Late in the afternoon they found it pinn-
ed on the j udges coat, for a button hole
boquet.
Persons speaking from the stand in the
big tent, should speak out loud. 1t is
very provoking to sit and watch the m O.
tions of an orator, and not be able to
hear half-a. dozen words.
Fritz" Kirkendall, little child, recit-
ed neat little temperance poem. Fritz
said "cold water was good enough for
him" From which the inference is
drawn that Fritz" will never be Dem
ocrat.
Ed. o. Jones appeared on the stage
with his "old wife" Ed. was just as
handsome and sang just as sweetly as he
he used to, when he was a young man,
but somehow the old woman didn't seem
to be bit proud of him.
AT the next meeting of the Literary
and Musical Association, the boys should
be informed, politely but firmly that
they are to keep quiet. If this does not
keep them quiet, policeman should be
called, and they should be promptly
elected from the tent
The Jackson Cornet Band played some
fine music at the evening entertainment.
This Band plays we'll, and the boys should
procure neat uniforms, in order to make
a frstc class appearance, on public occa-
sions. We acknowledge fine serenade
fromsthe Band boys, a few evenings since
Judge Longbon went long way toward
establishing reputation as a humorist,
in the debate with Mr.. Moore. The
Judge was arguing that the tongue had
ACCOMPLISHED more than the pen, for the
advancement of the human race In his
argument, he frequently referred to
a1ritten notes.
The conspicuous man" was on hand
of course. Whenever he got chance to
stand on the top of seat, and prevent
ladies and children behind him from see
ing the platform, he promptly mounted
the seat. He kept Tom. Delay busy put
ting him down. The proper thing to do
with the conspicuous man" is to hit him
with club-and hit him hard, SO that he
may know he is not glass, and that peo-
pie connot see through him.

A Compliment to Dentists.

Of all professional men, dentists would
be the neatest, and as class they are.
Those who require grateful refreshing,
delightful aroma, while working about
the organ of smell, should wet their
hands in DR.. Prices Floral Riches. Its
fragrance is not only as pleasant as can
be imagined, but decidedly stimulating.
1t will be seen by the proceedings of the
Probate Court that Chew, the barber, is
insane. He was in Jail day or two last
week. Too much bad whisky is all that
ails Chew.

There is one thing which the nozzle.
men of the Jackson Fire Company ought
to learn-and learn speedily. 1t is that
men who are walking quietly along the
streets while the steamer is in operation,
do not like to have an idiot turn an inch
and half nozzle upon them, and drench
them from head to foot. Neither do
parents want the little child, who is sent
upon an errand, to come home with its
clothes ruined, and its life endangered,
just because some fellow who gets hold
of a nozzle, wants to demonstrate that he
has no sense-when the world would be
willing to believe it without any demon
stration. We are happy to say that these
remarks apply only to the nozzlemen.-
We do not know that those referred to
will heed them, but we believe that un-
less there is some other way found to
put stop to such conduct, the result
will be that some citizen will be compell-
ed, in selfdefense, to call in the assist
ance of a pile of cinders or brick bats,
and furnish the raw material for a first
class funeral
