On the 1st of May one year ago our
brother soldiers from Jacksonville, who
wage such successful war against the Fire
King, was with US; on yesterday the
Palatka boys were alone and they turn
ed out to show the citizens how the next

volved on Assistant Chief Harrison.

chanics under the direction of Foreman
Warwick.
The fire engine was stationed at the
court house well, and the hose was rapid
| ly extended down Reid street, across the
Putnam house lot, and the laddies be-
gan to throw a fine stream down Lemon
street through nine hundred feet of
hose. Meantime the splendid new truck
had been run down Reid street and halt
ed in front of the First National bank
The ladders were quickly extended, the,
boys mounted, axes in hand, and then
the nozzlemen of the Mechanics gave
them a stream which rose high over the
three-storey brick buildings in that neigh
borhood
Besides the benefits to the firemen,
which practice alone can give, the ex-
ercise seemed to fur nish fascinating
amusement to all our citizens. Every
stray dog received a solid shot from the
hose, and the spray cooled the heated at
mosphere to an appreciate extent.
Just as the companies We're disband

ter pen and superintendent the killing of
a fine beef and two muttons. The beef
is not knocked in the head as we usually
do. but he IS strung up and his throat
cut. When the beef has bled to death
the butcher opens it, and the rabbi in
serts his hand into the inside of the beef
and feels his lungs and other internal ar
engagements until he is perfectly satisfied
that the beef is sound and fit for the fol-
lowers of the rabbi to eat. He then has
it nicely dressed and puts his brand upon
the four quarters of the beef. The brand
is in Hebrew and looks more like hierog-
lyphics than anything else. The brand
is a certificate that the beef has been ex-
amined and pronounced good, and the
Jews will buy no other The muttons
are examined in the same manner, and
on the fore shoulder of each one you can
