The Bangor Commercial has the follow
ing, regarding one feature of Y. NJ. C. A.
work in Bangor, that may be of interest to
the members of the Augusta organization
A movement is now on foot by several
prominent members Of tie Y. NJ. c. A. to
reorganize the debating society held in
the Associations rooms two years ago.
The society at that time was in fairly
flourishing condition and many of the young
men who attended received considerable
benefit from the debates. As this is some
thing that ought to be established in tbi,
city, and the Y M. c. A. furnished good
opportunity and place for tit is hoped that
those interested in the affair may be sue
cessful in establishing . debating society.
a. there il nothing which has . greater ten
dency to draw out the undeveloped powers
of the young man than an organization Of
this kind.

At Turner Hall Last Nisht-The Efficient
Committeeman. +.
The annual mrsque carnival OF the
Wheeling Turner Society, which took
place at Turner Hall on North Marke,
street last night, was big success.
There was a large crowd, both Of
masquers and spectators present, and
everything mooved of smoothly. The
General Committee having charge OF
the affair consisted Of Messrs. Joseph
Weisgerber, VIM. A. Schambra, Richard
Muhleman, II. J. Schneider, Otto Can.
pei, Prof. T. Krogh, II. Il. Schambra,
George Loos, George Mayer, W. 7. Sadler,
and Chas. Amick. These gentlemen were
untiring in their efforts to have eyery-
thing satisfactorily arranged aud sue
ceeded' most admirably. Mr.. w.. r.
Sadler was the master OF ceremonies.
and his able assistant was Mr.. II. ].
Schneider. The n Isle was furnished
by the Opera Fllse orchestra and was
acceptable as matter OF course. There
was promenading IRON Sto 0 o'clock after
which the grand march was formed. This
was led by eight members OF the Fencing
Section in full uniform and was very
pretty and intricate affair. The variety
OF costumes worn was great; the comic
ones were in the majority and some OF
them were very, very funny. None ex-
cept those in full costume were allowed
on the floor till after masks had been
ordered OF. Tho event was one Of the
best OF the kind the Turner'S have ever
given.

OF n Chemical Engine Recommended.
The Council Committee on Fire De.
partment and Chief Dunning made the
annual inspection tour OF the Depart.
ment yesterday. All the engine and
hose houses were visited and tho appara.
tus and buildings found to DO in better
condition than ever before. At some
houses new carpets will DO put down
and new hose for cleaning purposes will
DO purchased.
The old. hook and ladder truck and
united engine, which went out Of ser.
vice Mt the tilne tho Niagara. was pur.
chased, are stored at tho Eighth ward
hose houss-and arc worse than useless
as they are In tho way. Tho committee
on viewing these wrecks decided to
recommend to Council that they be dis
posed OF rs soon rs possible without any
haggling rs to prices. .
Tho matter OF locating q hose house
around the hill on McColloch street was
broaehod, and tho necessity OF u hose
reel In that nelghhorhood was acguiesced
In by the committee, but thero were
other and moore pressing needs nj pres.
ent, and that suggestion was left over
until next year, when II 10 more than
likely that n reel will be placed in that
locality. Pug
The most important conclusion arrived
at by the committee was Its decision to
recommend the purchase OF q chemical
engine by Council, to DO stationed at the
Hope hose house on Eleventh street.
The suggestion is not a new one, rs the
subject hRs been brought up in Council
before. This year the committee will
press Council to make tho purchase.
The arguments in favor OF chemical en-.
CINE stationed ut the place designated
arc many while there arc mono against
1t. These facts backed by tho unani.
nous recommendation OF the committee
ought to make 1t plain sailing iorthe
city fathers. The district In which the
engine would be located contains the
largest mercantile establishments in the
city, and as tho secret in putting out a
fire lies in reaching it in It's incipiency,
tho advantages Of n chemical engine In
this locality will DO readily seen. An.
other argument is, that even il the fire
had made smart progress II could be ex.
tinguished by the chemical engine with.
out tho destruction Of goods which fol.
lows the use OF water. AS before stated,
the committee will use ils best cndeavors
to have this measure passed. IL

night, each call being followed by some
amateur performance on the stage, Oil
Ger Henry Frohme represented the fresh
over Immigrant with his broad trousers,
blue vest and wooden shoes. Frohme's
face and figure are splendidly suited to
the role he assumed, and his brogue per-

Frank Blon, 20 years old, was very
severely hurt at the Warwick Pottery
yesterday morning. He was standing
on the second floor looking down the
elevator shaft when the elevator came
down and striking his head, forced it
down against the safety gate. The ele.
vators weight on Blon's head broke the
gate in two and released his head. The
back OF his head was badly bruised, and
his upper lip, which rested on one edge
OF the gate, was cut through by the
across and three OF the lower teeth were
broken of.
Dr.. JOHN r. Piper dressed the wounds,
ten stitches being necessary to close the
cuts in the lips. Blon was taken to his
home in the Eighth ward where he was
resting easy last night, p
