BEST POLICY
 AGAINST FIRE
 IS TO DANCE
Encouragement for the Firemen's Ball Next Wednesday Will Prove
 Good Investment.

The Fire Department in carrying out their plans to give Juneau the best time possible on the night Of their big dance next week have se- cured the services of Larson's six piece orchestra. All the music to he used is new and most of it will be heard here for the first time that evening. Everyone will find plenty of variety to the selections, and also plenty of selection. By furnishing the dancers with an orchestra of six pieces, together with the very latest in music, the fire boys are giving the very best possible. Dancing will start at nine o'clock and continue until the wee sma' hours.
 The business men of the city are supporting the boys very liberally, and have given them every encour- agement possible. It is this spirit of cooperation which makes for the success of their undertaking. The Finance Committee reports the sale of goodly number of tickets, which together with the prospective sales, will make the dance success from a financial point of view.
 The tickets are in the nature of an insurance policy and read as fol- lows:
