 The new and elegant quarters of the Wallace hose were opened up and duly dedicated on Saturday evening and now the company can boast of one of the finest and most convenient houses in the state. The inside, which is handsomely fitted up, was decorated with ferns and flags and presented a beautiful appearance. The lower room Is arranged for the hose truck and other apparatus and is also intended at some later day to contain a hook and ladder truck Upstairs on the west side of the building is the assembly room or company parlors, which is fur nished in an elegant manner. The southeast room is fitted up with five handsome iron bedsteads, a gift from H. l.. Judd & Co.,, and will be occupied every night by some of the members so as to be ready promptly in case of an alarm of fire. The northeast corner is fitted up for a committee room and nicely fitted up with rolling top desk, etc. The hose tower is all that could be desired, and in fact everything is arranged so complete that there can be no cause for complaint. The parade, which was at first announced for 3 o'clock in the afternoon, was started at 7 o'clock, when the company in their handsome blue uniforms, preceded by the National band, marched uptown, where they were joined by the other companies and the borough officers and after a short parade on Main street re- turned to the hose house, where the dedication exercises were continued, af- ter which a banquet was served and the members devoted themselves to en- tertaining their guests, which was in a very pleasant and hospitable manner. From 4 to o'clock many of our citi- zens and ladies inspected the new quar- ters.
