Firemanic Matters.
Indications that the Celebration next
Thursday Will Prove Brilliant
Success.
The indications are that the
Firemen's S celebration next Thurs
day will be arousing success. The
preparations are nearly all COM
pleted, and sufficient money, it is
believed, has been subscribed. to
defray the necessary expenses in
entertaining our guests. The line
of march, which we publish below,
is good one, and if there are no ted
ious delays, such as were met with
at Middletown, the distance can
easily be covered before sundown.
Everybody will see the Parade,
and every thing with feet and
wheels has been engaged for the
occasion.
Each Company will receive its
own guests at the depot and escort
them to their headquarters; at or
about II o'clock the civilians,
among them, Mayors, Councllmen,
Editors ETC., will be conveyed or
escorted to the City Hall where the
Mayor will receive them. Mayor
Brown has arranged with Martin
nellie, of New York, to provide
luncheon for all such guests in the
Arrnory on the top floor OF the
City Hall, which will be decorated
and provided with seats and tables
for the purpose. The expense of
the luncheon will be born by
the Mayor in addition to his sub
scription to the regular fund. The
column will form for the parade
around the old City Hall on Howe
avenue and Prospect street at 1.3o,
and at o'clock the Mayor and the
visiting municipal officers will re-
view it in front of the new City
Hail. After the review the Mayor
and guests will take carriages and
Join the procession. 1t is expected
that there will be from 60 to 80
guests other than fremen to be
cared for by the Mayor. Mayor
Lawrence Pagan, the Hoboken re-
former, will be among them. The
guests will be treated to banquet
at Whitehead's Hotel after the
parade. The various fire compan-
les have made separate arrange
ments for the other guests. No.
will occupy the old Armory, No.
will turn their house into dining
room, No. 3 will rendezvous at
Capt. Emmons' hotel Rescue
Truck Co. expects to dine its guests
