IHE PHOENIX Observation-Disclosures
! for the grand festival to be given next Sat
urday and Sunday for the.beneft of Phm-
nix Steam Fire Company's engine fund are
in as forward state as could be desired,
and all the indications point to highly
successful entertainment. Saturday even
ing the Donaldsonville Dramatic Club will
hold the boards at Phenix Hall and pre-
sent the laughabie English farce entitled
lei on Parle Francois, which VII be supple
mented by the rendition Of vocal anu IN
strumental selections by several of our best
local amateurs. The entertainment will
close with dance. The members of the
Ladies' Aid Association Will have charge of
the refreshment tables on the lower floor,
and no better assurance is needed that this
department will be admirably conducted.
On Sunday the nations birthday will be
celebrated in grand style, and Cleveland
Park and Phoenix Hall will be the centres
of.attractiou. At 8 o clock A. M, we believe,
the shooting match between the local gun
clubs will begin at the Park, continuing
until II aud being resumed at intervals
during the day until completed. At noon
national salute will be fred on the public
square, the Ascension Rifles will assemble
there, the declaration of independence will
be read and an Grafton delivered. About l
O'Clock the hnaof march will be taken up
for Cleveland Park, where the rest of the
afternoon will be occupied with a military
parade, target shooting, a base bail match
at 3 O'Clock between those strong rival
home clubs, Fortiers and Lees, and Il, half
mile dash for a purse of $500 aside by
Schonberg's noted little sorrei horse Roly
Roly and Variants swift footed gray mare
Nellie. These events are sure to attract
large attendance of people, unless the
weather be exceptionally bad, and the pro-
gramme comprises such combination of
amusenents as is rarely afforded on sin
gle occasion here Or elsewhere. Refresh
ments will be dispensed on the grounds at
low prices, and ample preparations have
been made for the preservation of degree
of order and decorum that will warrant
the ladies of the community in turning out
en- nassc to grace the fete with their charm
ing presence and add zcst to the enjoy
mems of the day.
Sunday night O concert and olio enter
tainment will be given in Phnnix Hall, al
SO closing with a dance, and the pro-
gramme portends highly interesting even
ing to all who attend. A committee of la
dies, headed by Mrs. c. Heating, will have
charge of the refresh:nent department., and
will keep "open ehonse" ut Phoenix Hall
all day.
The price of admission to EACH entertain
ment at the Hall and to Cleveland Park
will be only half dollar-for children IN
der IL years, half price.
We hope to see a general closing of PLACES
of business at an early hour OH Sunday and
an oatpouring of the people to do honor to
the glorious fourth, and at the same time
assist in raising the funds req uired to as
sure the retention in DonaldsonviIle of |

- A correspondent of the Shreveport Jour
. nal wishes to know what the frequent use
in the newspapers of the word chestnut -
means. The term originated in Philadel-
phia at the Chestnut Street Theatre, where
plays ran so long as to cause their phrase
..ology to become familiar to the pratons,
hence the term "chestnnt" became syn
onypous with anything old or hackneyed.
