ID expected TO be one OF the most closely con.
tested shooting matches ever held here. he-

Another shooting match. In which everybody
ID invited 10 participate, will also take place.

play OF IRE works, at ~SEortsman's Park, lust
west OF this city. Whilst the money raised
Is not sufficient to purchase the requisite
amount OF hrework to make this display the
most elaborate one ever Witnessed here we
feel safe In saving that It will be app related
100 per cent. more. Our people can 20 to the
edge OF the bluff Ia the western part of the
cityand look dOvA upon the display instead of
w as 10 generally the case. And then. too.
'nerewih De no necessity Of those desiring to
witness tie display diminishing around to
hnd u comfortable place from which to view
u. There will be room enough for all and the
display NAV be seen from any point up and
down the bluff between Wellington and
hiVerton. Our candid opinion Is that the
celebration to be given here on that day will
lie more truly enjoyable than any ever held
here. Let everybody come to Lexington and
enjoy themselves.
