THE FESTIVAL.
Our People Should Go Out Tonight and
Help the Boys.

Parrish's warehouse presented an ami
mated scene last night
The firemen's festival was the attrac-
ton and they came from all over.
The Durham band was there.
And they made music, music which
people liked to hear and which caused
them to linger on till the last note died
away, and then depart with regret and
determination to go again the next night
and have the same thing over again.
The fruits and ices were such as to
tempt the most delicate palate, and the
young ladies in charge of refreshments
were kept busy serving their guests and
making small change, which passed
around lively.
All who attended, and they were half

The festival will be continued again
to o-night and number of new and attrac-
tive features will be added to the pro-
gramme. This, the last night, will be
the big night, the grand round up, and
such as do not go will miss pleasant
evening.
In this connection THE GLOBE would
again remind the people that the two fire
companies for the benefit Of which it is
given, are made up of some Of the best
young men in the city; that they hold
themselves ready at all times and under
all circumstances to protect the property
of citizens and they give their time, their
labor and oftentimes risk life itself with

If there is any organization on earth
which deserves recognition and support

BREAKING A BICYCLE,
A Young Man who Thought Himself a
CuSS on Wheels.

A Young Man Who Thought Himself a
Cuss on Wheels.
The perseverance evinced by novice
and his bicycle on Mangum street at
about 9:3O last light attracted wide, spread
attention and created a great deal of mer-
riment The man who breaks the per-
verse broncho has picnic compared to
the bowling experience of this young
man in breaking his bicycle. 1t evinced
more of the spirit Of malicious meanness
than could be boiled out of a whole herd
of bronchos. The voice was as persever-
ing as the treaCherous machine was stub
born and intractable, and groupes of la
dies and gentlemen followed the maneu-
vers of the pair with increasing interest
and loud bursts of merriment. The young
man would lead his steed over the rough
places. The malice that lent interest to
the occasion appeared to slumber until
he vaulted into the saddle. AS soon as
he lighted upon his back and began to
urge it forward, the spirit of evil intent
| seemed to lay hold of it. It would quiver
and tremble and stagger over few feet
while the young man would cling to its
head with his tireless hands and wildly
kick at it's ribs with his feet A few Sc
conds of this treatment was all it could
stand, and it would go to earth with a
rush. Sometimes it would fall one way
and sometimes it would fall two ways. 1t
would always fall some way. And it fell
hard. Neither would it lie still when it
had fallen, but wound its glistening, cold
and unyieiding parts over, under and all
around its companion of ofignominy. Some
thirty mounts, and as many dismounts,
were accomplished with vigor and dis
, patch in the course of block. The dis
| mounts were the most interesting and
sensational. Clouds of dust would fill
| the air at each dsmount, riyalling the
halo that enshrouds the street sweeper,
while the young man would shoot and
roll half way across the street. Man and
beast bore up manfully to the last and
finally melted away into the darkness
down Broadway, still struggling with
each other.
