LET THE FIREMES COME.

Ii there IS any town in the State
that appreciates the volunteer fire.
men that town is Nrwbcrry. Onr
tiremcn have never called for help
from the citizens Of this town with
out the response being prompt and
hearty. On the other hand the
alarm Of fire has never been sounded
without Il cheerful and quick re-
sponso from tho fire boys, and he
heat nor the cold never made them
hesitate or delay in the discharge Of
their duty. 1t has always been SO
since we have known anything of
this town. In fact wo do not believe
thore is better set OF volunteer fire
mon in tho State than we have al
ways had in Newborry.
There is to be held IN scme city in
tho State in the near future q EoInn
teor Firemen's Tournament. We
would like to 500 that tournament
held in Newborry. We have the
water supply; we have tho facilities
for entertaining tho visitors, and we
can make tho tournament great
success. In order to do this some
money will have to be raised to put
up the prizes and to entertain the
visitors. BY entertainment wo do
not mean the board and lodging, for
that is not expected free, but there
will be incidental expenses which
will have to be met. The city coun
Gil will Of course make contribu
tion to cover the expenses Of the
prizes, but the other means should
be raised by private contributions
We trust if the board of tiremasters
decide to invite the association to
meet here, and we hope they will,
that there will be none to protest
against aiding the success of the
tournament, but that every one will
contribute of his means and other
things necessary to make the tonrna-
ment pleasant. A united effort will

The residents of the island of Cebu have return of that island to military control Several towns in Cebu are still besieged by the insurgents. The insurrectfon on the island of Bohl has been renewed and insurgent sentiment in the province of Batangas is strong.
 General Chaffee has ordered battalion of the Thirtieth infantry to begin the oc- cupation of the island of Mindor. The province of Batangas will be occupied by, the entire twentieth infantry. ne
