The MAY QuEEN.-A BAN
NER reporter, in conversation
with several leading citizens,
learned that they were of the
opinion that undue prominence
has been given to Mr.. Henry
Cohn in his connection with the
election of May Queen. While
they cheerfully give Mr.. COIN
great credit for his activity in
this matter, much credit is also
due to several of our leading
citizens and prominent business
men for the liberality displayed
by them in putting up money
on the last night of the election.
They were actuated solely by a
desire to assist the fire depart
ment, and further, they always
contribute literally to all mat
tiers of public enterprise.
STREET Work. Major Nc
Donald, acting chief engineer of

new and bright long-handled
shovels and did a little effective
work on Sandy street by NOV

enterprise were all of the color

colored party refused to work

BEER. = BRENNAN has two
beer agencies and there is no
little rivalry existing between
them. Tuesday one of the
agents went into a saloon and
called for four glasses of beer
in succession, he tasted each
glass of beer critically and made
wry faces, finally asking the sa-
loonist why he didn't keep good
beer, declaring that before him
to be the beer sold by the other
agency. The saloonist assured
the beer critic that the beer he
was sampllng was not what he
thought it was and opening the
ice box he showed the agent
the keg containing the beer that
he wanted to sell instead of the
other mans. The agent wilted.

FIRE.

About three o'clock Friday
morning a cry Of fire and the
ringing of the alarm bell arous-
ed every one sleeping in the
neighborhood Of the square.
Some one had smelt burning
wool or smoke. The engine
company and the Hook and
Ladder responded promptly.
Guided by the smell of the
smoke it was discovered that
the interior of Williamson's sa-
loon, on St. Charles street, was

had a stock valued at about

will cover it or not, but it is
likely that it will. The build

Thomas FTyer and are damag-
ed to the amount ofabout $500;
it is said that he is not insured
in any of the local agencies. AT
first no signs of a blaze were
visible and men were on the roof
with lanterns looking for the
fire. 1t is almost needless to
say that the utility of the steam
er was again fully demonstra-
ted.
