ANXIOUS FoR THEIa PAY.

A special Meeting of she Hoard of
 Finance to Fay she Board ofCompen-
 sasion.
 A hurried call for special meeting of the board of finance was sent out last night. It happened in queer way. The board of compensation, Messrs. Matthewman, Fox and Fitzpatrick had failed to send In their bill for the month for salaries ct the boards meeting the night before. They saw their mistake yesterday and induced tho mayor to call special meeting to act upon this bill.
 Aldermen Gessner, Cunningham and Naley and Councilman Bromley were in attsndance, The first two signed the bill, which wss for 4108, but the others did not. Aldsrmsn Maley thought the board could not riQhtfully sign It, as the charter provides that city bills shall be approved by the board onco < month and appoints special day for this business. The commitcee on ordinances have iust rn ported upon . measure to change the monthly meeting to two meetings month to provide for the bi-weekly payments to the fire de. parSmsnt. Considering these thinas, no action was taken on the bill and the members of the board of compensation will nos, in all proba bility, get their salaries this month.

Temple of Furniture.

Eempl0 O1 Fuf01SuKes
 The spacious and commodious store situat- cd at Orange street ,eorner of Center, former known as Loomis' Temple of Music. has been recently remodeled and transformed into one of the largest and most complete house furnishing establishments in the state. Hessrs. Brown and Durham, the proprietors, have. at considerable expense, had every part of the large building fitted up expressly for their line of business, and the tasteful and thorough manner in which they have had their store arranged is manifest to all who have visited the premises. There are five large floors, four of which contain special lines of goods, so placed as to be easily in- spected. The basement floor has the follow- ing: Ranges, stoves, crockery, tin, brass and wooden ware, including everything for kitchen and table use.
 The floor above has @ magnificent selection of lounges, sofas, chamber sets, sideboards, folding beds, easy chairs, baby carriages. pictures, mirrors, etc. The second floor con- tains chamber and dining room furniture, office and fancy furniture. bedding. mattress mammoth room, 130 feet long. is filled with Q full line of the general stock carried by the firm. Space forbids naming the choice and elegant goods exhibited at this model store, which includes all that is new, stylish and durable in their line of trade. Mention should be made, however. of new make of secretaries and book cases which, for fine workmanship and finish, cannot be excelled. They are gotten up in new patterns with cylinder fronts and sixteenth century finish in walnut and antique oak, with oxydixed metal trimmings and Yale looks. Brown & Durham are the sole agents for them in this city.
 Tho new firm will doubtless meet with generous patronage. F. E. Brown was with J. 0. Peck for fourteen years and has hosts of friends who will be pleased to know of his newlenterprise. M. R. Durham Is also we'll and favorably known. Low prices and square and honorable dealings to all will characterize the new firm. All goods are marked in plain figures. A fine large ele- vator run by electricity is one of the many modern features of this new and attractive house.
