-Oae Ct the leading events Of The oid
year which escaped unnotlced, last week,
was the sociable OF The Hibernia Fire
Company, held al st. Johns Hail, on
Friday evening, December Goth. 1t was
| decided by the committee in charge that
IL a sociable was worth having it was
wcrih having well, and the grand success
more than carried out lis decision. The
large and commodlous hall was tastefuly
| decorated with The American colors,
which lent additional charm TO the gay
and handsome costumes Of the ladies
present.
AT 9 O'clock the grand march was be.
| gun, and as the strains OF music from
Messrs. Stiles, Schermerhorn and Lugar
arose above the merry chatter OF voices
from old and young, the happy couples
started off, led by president Louis Gull
lick and Miss Mary Ellen Hogan, William
F. Mengan and Miss Mamie Colligan,
Thomas A. McNamara and Miss Nellie
Murray, John Knowlsn and Miss Nellie
| Hunt, etc.
Notwithstanding the fact that President
Guiilick was pressed into the leading of
the grand march at the last moment, 1t ls
just to say that there was nothing left un-
done and the compliments passed were
very creditablc.
To those fond of dancing, ample oppor-
tunity was given during the evening TO
satisfy their largest desires. There was
also an opportunity given to supply the
wants of the inner man, at the neat re-
freshment stand, under the supervision
of Chairman BARLEY O'Brien, who WAS
ably assisted by Patrick Condry and An
drew Cavanaugh. The refreshments con-
sisted OF ice cream, cakes, lemonade aud
choice CONNECTIONS.
Freebooter James II. CalIan made him
self generally useful In welcoming the
guests, and in this particular he was suc.
csssful, as those present we're loud in their
praise OF The hospitable treatment receiv.
ed, not only from Mr.. Callan but from all
the members of the company.
The Hibernis Fire Company was or.
ganized Jan. 1880. The service since
rendered by this company TO the citizens
richly deseiv we'd the substantial assistance
received from them. and for which the
company will ever be ready "To assist
the suffering and protect the weak"
The programs were gotten up 10 ele-
CANT style and will no doubt be kept by
many as souvenirs of q grand good time
at the Hibernia sociable.

The formal offer Of Mr.. John Moses,
the proprietor Of the great Glasgow Pot
terry, to pay his men English wages, plus
the tariff duty, has gone on REGARD as one
OF the most notable and significant con-
tributions ever made to The consideration
of the tariff question. English wages are
the highest paid in any country in the
werld outside OF the United States. In
other ceuniriSs that compete with ns in
pottery manufacture, the wages are from
200 to 500 per cent. less than are paid in
Treuton
And il has gone on the record forever
to stand there as telling aud invincible
fact, that the men decline the proposition.
They refuse to accept English wages plus
the averages duties Of So per cent. in the
Mckinley tariff.
We have invited the free trade parrot,
that has for years persistenily insisted that
the ''robber barons" themselves sel6shly
grabbed all the advantage of the tariff,
and that labor did not get a cent OF ths
protection afforded, to try its jaws on
this file, but the wary old bird fights shy
Of 1t. II has not ventured to try a single
nibble at this forbidding file. State Ga
