New Years eve was celebrated in
the city in a very quiet manner, and
with the exception of the pandemon-
ium that broke loose from whistles,
bells and firearms at the hour of -
last night it differed little from any
other Sunday. There were several
watch parties organized in different
sections of the city and the watchers
were entertained at the homes of
friends, watching the old year out ana
the new year in.
Promptly at twelve o'clock last
night those who had retired were sud
denly awakened by a noise that could
not be mistaken. Bells tolled, steam
whistles shrieked, and all manner OF
fireworks and firearms discharged, to
punctuate all this the revelers added
their voices and for ten minutes the
city was a veritable bedlem. 1t was
a very orderly crowd and the police
had nothing to do. Not one arrest
was made during Saturday night and
Sunday, Notwithstanding yesterday
was New Years eve.
Today public and private rigs are
busy carrying people out to make New
Years calls.

knowledge of its near approach. These
were Almo f. Neri, the best man; Rev.
IL. w. Steele of the First Universalist
