THE rain Monday night was the
signal for the farmers to draw their
tobacco plants, and early Tuesday
morning they were hard at work
setting them out in theground, and
then Tuesday night and Wednes-
day morning there was another
good rain which enabled them to
plant almost their entire crop at
once. This has been about the best
season to plant tobacco we viii
probably have this year, and be-
sides it came just at the right time.
We predict large and good crop
this year.

THE FIRE COSIPANY's CELEBRATION.

The celebration given by the Fire
Department on Friday of last week
was in every feature a success. The
street parade in the afternoon
exceeded expectation, and the BAN
quet and ball at night proved a
most delightful entertainment.
That the services of our gallant
firemen have been appreciated, and
that they, as body, are very high
ly esteemed in this community
was evidenced by the eager interest
taken in.their celebration. Numer-
Gus ladies of the city assisted them
in decorating their engine and hose
reels and in preparing the tables
for the banquet. Besides this, the
streets were lined with eager spec
tators while the procession was
passing, who exhibited much en-
thusiasm over the display made.
The procession started from a
point on Third street opposite the
Court House at 3 o'clock and was
preceded by Mozart brass band.
Chief Hyman, Assistant Chief
Dibble and Foreman Young-all
mounted on handsome horses
were in the lead. Chief Stocke'l,
of the Nashville fire department
was their distinguished guest and
rode with them. Deluge engine
No. / came first. 1t had been bur-
nished and decorated for the occa-
sion, and was drawn by four hand
some bay horses. Miss Maggie
Dibble, a little girl of about six
summers, was seated under a can
opy on top of the engine with a
pet lamb by her side, and made a
very pretty picture.
The firemen marched in double
ranks after the engine and each hose
reel to which they respectively be-
longed.
The hook and ladder trucks came
next to the engine and were also
drawn by four bay horses. The
letters, "H. 81 l. Co." were pen
dant from a pyramid made of the
short ladders, and the whole was
prOfusely decorated with flowers
and evergreens.
The four hose reels. came next in
their respective order. The firemen
who attend each of these carriages
had engaged in a generous rivalry
to see which could get up the hand
soonest decorations. 1t is not for us
to decide which won the contest,
and we are glad that it is not, for
each was so handsomely adorned
that it would be no easy task to
determine on which the most taste
was displayed.
The procession proceeded down
Franklin street and formed in front
of the Southern Hotel building on
the public square, where it was
photographed. 1t then moved
back up Franklin street to Third,
Third to Madison, Madison to Sew
enth, Seventh to franklin, Frank
lin to University Avenue. From
the avenue to College. College to
Fuurth, Fourth to Main, Main to
Second, Second to Franklin, Frank
lin to Square. Here there was a
general review by Chief Stockell OF
Nashville and the local officers, for
each of whom the tiremen gave
three cheers and the procession dis
banded. A hose was then attached
to the fire plug in front of the Chron-
icle office, and another to the one in
front OF Dority d Herndons' gro
Gerry store, and an exhibition given
of throwing water.
THE BANQUET.
The banquet and ball which took
place in the Tobacco Exchange
Building was attended by about
four hundred people. The tables

Cured last week and are pronounced
by the local press of Hopkinsville I'M
surpassed in the history of the institu-
ton. We are glad to learn that steps
may be taken to endow this College
for the education of girls and we know
of no one who can do more TO accom-
plish such an end than DR.. Rust. Why
SO much money should be spent for
the endowment of institutions for
boys and so little for girls we have
never understood.
