THE CELEBRATION.
What is Being Done About the Celebra-
ton of the Fourth of July,

ton of the Fourth Of July.
The Fourth of July General Committee
met last evening at the Courthouse, Mayor
Brown presiding. The First Ward Commit
tee reported 81 80 more collected. The Third
Ward Committee reported 1857 collected. II
also said that the ward had not been as thor
oughly canvassed as it should be; TIE ward
ought to contribute 5000 or 500. The mat
ter was discussed at length. 1t was found
that the committee would be 5000 short of
expenses. The money must be raised. The
people were able and ought to give it. The
plan Of the celebration was not out OF pro-
portion to the importance of the city or the
ability of the people. The So, 900 must be
had, or else striking features of the celehra-
ton must be abandoned. The meeting re-
solved to appoint a special committee at
large, and named as such committee d.
Iubin, Fred kim, J. n. Larkin, Mayor
Brown, W. A. HoughtoD, G. w. Ficks, L.
H. Berkey, j. L. Carey, w. L. Gerber,
Judge w. A. Henry. Mr.. Lubin, being the
first named on the list, requested the COM
mittee TO meet at his Office at s A. N. Thurs
day next, sharp.
a long discussion was had over the propri-
ETY. of informing the fantasies that as the
collections fell below the original estimate,
they should be given but $500, as other de-
partments were being curtailed in like man
ner but finally the whole matter was re-
ferred to the Finance Committee to consult
with the Fantasies, in case the s., 600 cannot
be raised. The meeting then went over the
estimates of the cost of the celebration and
found that it had incurred liabilities esti-
mated at 81, 1872, without including music.
The question as to what should be paid for
bands was then discussed at length. The
feeling and expression was that the meeting
will not submit to exorbitant charges for brass
bands, but will in preference turn out with
drums and flies in the procession. Finally it
was stated what figures at least two music
corps expected, and the whole matter was re-
ferred to the Music Committee, with full
power to act. The meeting voted 500 to the
Paid Fire Department, $500 to the Printing
Committee, 800 for the boys representa-
ton of States and Territories, SS5
for the Continental Guard and the George
and Martha Washington representation. Mr..
Hamilton reported that Mr.. McNasssr had
contributed the use of four gray horses to
draw the Washington F" carriage. Grand
Marshal Berksy reported that the truckmsn
of the city had arranged to turn out and
furnish transportation for the children of the
Protestant Orphan Asylum; that the Odd
Fellows battalion would be in line in full !;
that he had notice already Of many lodges Of
civic societies that would be in line by dele
cations, and be had reason to believe that
the procession would be the largest, best and
most attractive ever seen In the city. From
all quarters he was receiving the most en-
couraging reports. He desired then and
there to notify all committees, and all bodies
to take part that there should be no standing
in either sun or shade waiting for tsrdy par
Elephants. Everybody must be ready at the
appointed hour for the moving of the pro-
cession. He should move it at that hour if
line, and they should not be wearied by wait
ing, nor should they be kept standing in the
line waiting for cars, societies or any other
participants. All the children should
be under roof.shelter in proper
building until the moment came to march
into the line. The march should not be too
long for the children, but within their powers
easily. He had a committee already ap-
pointed from his aids to see that on the route
Of the march the boys are furnished with
clear cool (but not iced) water. Every at
tention should be given to the comfort of the
children, and he wished parents to under
stand that their boys should suffer no incon-
venience, but rather be pleased and benefited
BY the march. In conclusion the Grand
Marshal desired all societies and bodies in.
tending to participate to give immediate
notice that he might have ample time to ar.
range his programme for the procession to the
perfect satisfaction Of all. The meeting then
adjourned until Friday evening next, and the
Music Committee went into session and ar
ranged for bids for bands.
