OUR FIREMEN.
THEY WILL CELEBRATE THEIR ANN
VERsARY WITH A PICNIC
AND BALL.

On FRIDAY evening last the Board
of Delegates of tie Alexandra Fire
Department held q meeting for the
purpose of electing officers lor the en-.
suing year, and to decide in what
manner the anniversary of the Depart.
ment should be celebrated. The fol-
lowing gentlemen were elected: Il. G.
Hunter, President; Jos. Sterkx, Vice.
President; John G. Ryan, Secretary;
Jonas Rosenthal, Treasurer. We con
gratulate the Board on having made
sucb excellent selections.
The Treasurer's report showed a
cash balance in the Department treas.
nry of s242.OO.
The Board unanimously agreed to
celebrate the anniversary with Pic,
mic and a Grand Fancy Dress Ball at
night. The date of the anniversary
as fixed by the laws of the Department
is the fourth Tuesday of April, but We
believe the celebration will probably
take place. on Wednesday, May lst.
The Board are desirous of procuring
the Court House in which to give the
Ball. and will not be able to get the
building before the above date, owing
to the session of the District Court,
which will very likely continue two
weeks longer.
Messrs. G. A. Staples, Sam Eel
lows and Robert Webster were ap-
pointed a committee to select and put
in order the Picnic grounds. The
other committees will be appointed in
a day or two, and will proceed at once
to business.
At the same meeting committee
was appointed to ascertain the proha-
BILE cost of an excursion to Dallas,
Tex, and return.
For several years onr firemen have,
from one or another reason, allowed
their anniversary to pass unnoticed,
and we are glad to see that they have
this year determined to show our pco.
pile that there is still such an organiza-
ton in existence. We feel that we
can safely assure all that both the Pic
mic and Ball will be a grand success !;
our ire;nen never fail to make these
celebrations succesSes;-and we think
our people will show that they appre-
ciate the efforts of the "tire boys" by
contributing their might in purchasing
a ticket to and being present at the
Ball, the price of admission to which
has been placed at 81. This is duty
that every property holder in Alexau
dria owes to men who are organized
solely for the purpose of protecting
the property of their fellowmen from
destruction by fire, and that they have
faithfally discharged their obligations
in the past, when called upon to do SO,
none can deny.
We know that the children will tnrn
ont en- masse to the Picnic, for whose
benefit it is especially given. Peti-
tions will he addressed to the teachers
of the public and private schools, re-
qucsting that no school be taught on
that day, in order that the little ones
may have an opportunity of enjoying
"a day in the woods"
