YESTERDAYS BANQUETs.-After the pro-
cession yesterday Colonel James McNassar,
Grand Marshal, entertained his aids at his,
the Golden Eagle, Hotel. They were
seated at two long rows of tables, which
were spread with the most tempting and
toothsome viands. The Colonel made a
speech of welcome, which was responded
TO on behalf of the aids by K. NJ. Clarken.
Toasts were offered and responded to by
the following gentlemen: General John
T. Carey, Acknowledgement Cosby, d. J.
Simmons. DR.. c. G.. Tyrrell and Col. T. w.
Sheehan. On the other side of the dining
room Captain G. J. White was entertaining
his company, the Sarsfield Guard. The
entire company was present also some in
vited guests. Speeches were made by the
following persons: Captain White, Gen
eral Carey, Colonel Sheehan, Lieutenant
Rivett, Adjutant Neary Corporal Hughes,
Lieutenant Sheehan, Lieutenant Flaherty,
Alexander McCrea and others. The Pho
neers, as is their usual custom, had their
annual banquet and kept open house ."
throughout the day.
BUGGY SMAsHED.-While Engine No.
and hOse-cart were going up NJ street last
night, responding to the alarm of fire, a
gentleman named Denham, accompanied
bv a lady, drove down Fourth street in a
top-buggy. They apparently saw the en-
CINE, but did not notice that the cart was
following closely, and as a result the hose
cart struck one Of the hind wheels of the
buggy, upsetting it and throwing the occu-
pants out. The buggy top got caught on
one of the shafts of the cart, was torn
loose from the buggy, and carried on the
shaft about a block, frightening the horse
drawing the cart so that he became almost
unmanageable, and the fireman riding on
it had a narrow escape from being thrown
off The horse was finally stopped, and
the wreck removed from the shaft. The
occupants of the buggy were not hurt be
yond few slight bruises, but the buggy
was badly damaged.
COMPANY b HoP.-The celebration festiyi-
ties closed yesterday with a hop given by
Company b, First Artillery Regiment, at
Armory Hall, and Notwithstanding that the
gallant warriors had been campaigning all
day, each trooper toe-tripped gracefully and
gloriously through quadrillc, waltz and
schottische until after midnights weird
mystic hour. Few, few are they who hold
back in the ranks when the bugle calls to
Terpsichorean reyelry; and deeds of high
emprise will be wrought when patriotism,
woman and music urge the soldier forward
The red checks, the white brow and the
eve clear blue as a bayonet's gleam-trip-
Pile colors of the flag-all calculated to fire
the soul Of the young Yankee warrior with
Promethean flame. So expired the martial
splendors of July the Fourth.
FALSE ALARM About 1880 last night
an alarm of fire was turned in from box
IS, Seventh and \ streets, but there was no
| foundation for it beyond the desire of some
! men to be smart They tried to have an
alarm turned in from Ninth and streets,
bat were unsuccessful. They then, in a
! hack, went to Seventh and \ streets, told
| the clerk of the grocery at that corner that
there was q fire at Ninth and n streets,
urged him to be prompt, and made such a
good showing that he turned in an alarm.
| The Fire Department made quick time to
! the box from which the alarm was given.
| especially engine No. l.
