IL. IL is charged that since the night
school was opened many articles belong

these tickets were distributed at the

it worked to perfection.
AFTER II 'REMEMBRANCEs."
II was not difficult to discover that
the chief attraction was neither the enter
tainment nor the prospect of an illustrst-
ed dissertation on the ''art Of drawing
letters, F." but the promise OF tina "remem-
brauce" in the form OF dolls, skates, al
buns, sleds. etc. The little people, while
waiting for the opening of the hall door,
had not a word to say about the show,
but many a speculation was INDUCED
in as TO what present would be received.
Finally the door was opened and with
a rush and a shout the children began to
ascend the steep stair. a nimble-fngered
man, with an inverted arch of hair
plsstered on his forehead, collected the
Dickels at the bottom OF the flight,
while at the top a pale-fsced youth with a
big voice and suappy black eyes distrib-
uted the remembrances. The principal
output consisted of scarf pins. that
might have lost 25 cents @ gross or less. Oc-
casionally, To vary the monotoDy, a child
would receive a tin watch or a dolly and
two boys, at least, were furnished with
skates. These were looked upon as the ia
vorites OF fortunes by those who had to be
content with the lead scarf pins and there
was a touch OF the pathetic I'm the express
sion on their cou%ntenances as they COM
pared their trumpery gifts with the, to
them, magnificent fortunes conferred on
their lucky companions in the shape OF
shining skates.
But then chagrin did not last long.
Youth II not naturally envious and the
feeling OF disappointment was quickly
superseded by a desire to get n good seat
rom which TO watch the show.

Pia. A thousand flags were car
ried. AT the head of the procession
marched numerous delegates from
provincial communes. Next came
the pupils OF the military schools
and delegations from Italian colo.
MES abroad. These were followed
by various bodies of Freem asons,
then long line Of military, politi-
cal and workingmens' societies.
The feature Of the parade which at
tracted great attention was group
OF American riflemen who carried
Italian and American flags. AS
the paraders passed the Austrian
embassy some hooting was done
by the men in line, caused by the
fact that the embassy, like
the embassies of France and Rus
STA, displayed no flag in
honor of the occasion. King Hum
bert conferred the decoration of
the Order OF AnnunZia upon Gen.
eral Cadorna, who commanded the
troops who marched into Rome on

The fire started in the north.
west corner of Lucchese's store near

his box of tools. 1t ran a short
distance along the west wall and
turned through into the iron-clad

cago dyeing and cleaning establish
ment. Here it extended a short
way into the work room, when its
progress was finally arrested by
the firemen.
The damage by fire to the build
ings may amount to about $3.50
the damage of fire and water to the
stock of Lucchese & Bro. Is about
5000. Rahmsdorf's dyeing place
may have sustained like loss,
chiefly by water.
The property belongs to Geo. NJ.
Maverick Of st. Louis, with Chas.
P. Smith as his agent. The loss is
fully covered by insurance. Frank
Lucchese says that his firm carried
$500 insurance, but 1t is not known
whether the stock of Mr.. Rahms-
dorf was insured.
Mr.. Lucchese says that he closed
his store at 10 O'Clock last night
and left everything in good condi-
ton. He had $35 in silver in the
money drawer, which he saved.
