Last evenings ceremonies opened under
more favorable auspices than ever and people
OF all ages crowded the galleries and floor to
see the drill by the little boys which took
place early in the evening. When the curtain
rose the little squad of twelve under the COM
mand of Sergeant Harry Nickerson of the
High School Cadets, marched in upon the
stage with so much grace and precision that
great applause was brought both from the au-
dence. Among the first of the movements
introduced was a wheel which merits much
praise, The Arguments when marching squad
front both forward aud backward were highly
creditable; also their forming fours to the
front, and marching by the right and left
flank. Many of the spectators who stood near
the stage expressed much appreciation when
the march to the rear, the squad being on the
march, was executed. The fancy movements
were handsomely introduced, but on the
whole, as some remarked, the exhibition was
not so good as that seen at the May Festival,

Upon a nations thro0bing breast;

Shall weather centuries of storms;
Your swords shall never yield to rust

To take the thanks his country gives.

In lonely grave meath Southern skies,
Or underneath the heaving sea
Awaits the eternity to be.

Companies and Captain OF the Hook and Lad.
der Co., reported all the Hose. Fire plugs, and
other apparatus in good condition. except the

The tariff furnishes some a so-called
pretext to vote the Republican ticket, al
though that ticket is headed by the Prince
