The Firemen,s Parade.

Those in charge of the Firemen's s
parade which occurs one week from
tomorrow night, are making all ar
rangements, and the demonstration
will be more important than ever be-
fore. Attention of merchants, manu-
tacturers and others is called to the
fact that this parade can only be
more successful by the contributions
of the people, and to-day solicitors
will start out to solicit funds. The
tiremen deserve to have the support of
the public. Make the contribution
liberal.

before City Council last night and
