Wg' A BAZAAR AND FAIR Opened by a Stirring Address by Mayor Gourlej, Last Evening, FOR THE BENEFIT OF BATTERY B. An Entertainment That Promises to be a Success in Even Way. OTHER rLEASUKES OP THE NEW WEEE A prolonged season of gayety was success fully inaugurated last evening by Battery B, at its armory, corner 'Fifth avenue and Miltenberger street. It was the opening night of the fair and bazaar that is to con tinue for the remainder of the month. A grand concert, with an opening address by Mayor Gourley, was the programme ot the evening, and a large audience was assembled in the handsomely decorated ball, radiant in red, wbite and blue, and further decorated with the flags of all nations, when the Battery buglers sounded the "Reveille." The Second Brigade Band then rendered the "From Dawn to Twi light" overture, after which Captain A. E. Hunt introduced His Honor, Mayor Gour ley, who made one of his customary and happy speeches, full of good, sensible ut terances. He said: MATOB GOURLEV'S ADDRESS. "The State Militia, or the National Guard of each State in the Union, are essentially State institutions, organized under and regulated by State laws-, but by proTision of the Constitution, the United States and by the laws of Congress putting those provisions into execution, they are to a cer tain extent, under the regulation of Con gress, and under certain circumstances are required to render service to the National Goveonment This double relation of the militia, to the State first and then to the Union of States, in the early stages of our nation's history gave rise to much discus sion, and sometimes caused serions disputes and embarrassment When the Continental Congress, in 1776, proclaimed to the world the independence of the colonies, in that im mortal Declaration, known to the world as the Charter of American Liberties, they baa no military force upon which they could depend lor maintenance and defense of that declaration, except the militia. All the regular soldiers of the country, as well as all the men who had received scientific militarv educations, bad es poused the cause of the British Crown. No regular troops fought in the Revolution that is, no soldiers trained in the evolu tions of civilized armies, in .the field or in Darade, but the experience of our iorefathers in the many campaigns against the French and Indians had innured them to the real hardships that soldiers must learn, had taught tbem to endure the trials and discom forts of such campaigns as were only fought on American soil, and in fact, our Conti nental soldiers were raised to and educated in fighting and being fighting men, they, from the very start, made the best of sol diers." SOME 'WORK OF THE MILITIA. The speaker then cave a very clear and careful history of the militia lorce of the Federal Government, through the nation's wars and insurrections, and concluded by reviewing the work of that class of soldiers the citizen soldiers during the greatest militia war the world ever knew the Re bellion. Of that war he said: "The battle ot Bull Run that is, the first engagement of that name was the most no ticeable example of a militia figbt in his tory. Both armies were composed of State militia and national volunteers, differing only in name, and alike in lack of correct preparation; but that battle illustrates that untrained men, commanded by untrained officers, could fight as fiercely and deter minedly as regular troops. But let me say that the militia which fought that battle of Bull Run, after receiving the drill and ex perience necessary to teach them discipline and soldierly conduct ou the field, braved the wilderness, foraged the valley of the Shenandoah, attempted Frederick Heights, fought the battle of Gettys burg, besieged "Vicksburg, drove an equally 'nell equipped enemy from Shilob and at Appomattox received a surrender from the Confederate army an other evolutionized army of regulars who had started in the war on the same footing as militia. This proves what intelligence and patriotism has done and can again do with the citizen as a soldier." Speakin? of the National Guard of Penn sylvania, he said it occupied first rank among the militia of the United States, and that Battery B was one of the best and most creditable organizations in this fine body ot Pennsylvania State troops. OTHER EXERCISES OF THE EVENING. The "Star Spangled Banner" then rang out with a chorus of about 70 voices, in cluding among them 44 young ladies, dressed in costumes of red, white and bice, and representing the States of the Union.Miss Hattie Rambler, a petite maiden with black hair and eyes, followed in an effective rec itation, "They Have Put No Flowers on Papa's Grave. A solo, "The Red, "White and Blue," by Miss Louise Loomis, was succeeded by "Magnetic "Waltz," solo by Miss Nannie B. Hammer, which closed the first pari ot the programme. Part second opened with "Soldiers Life, Retreat, Tattoo," by the Second Brigade Band, and "Marching Through Georgia" was sung by Mr. C. B. Thomson, after which "Hail Columbia," was rendered by the chorus. A saber drill was then conducted on the platform. Miss Nannie Hammer, in a vocal solo, "Who Knows?" followed, and "America," bv the chorus, was ronsinglv given. The "Ninata Waltzes" and "Battery B March," specially arranged for the occasion by Prof. Rohr, were the concluding numbers, after which the audience was requested to retire lo the wings, and a gun drill was given in the main body of the hall. THE TOUSG LADIES' SUCCESS. The chorus that assisted so materially in the success o! the evening was from the Sec ond Methodist Protestant Church of this city, and the young ladies who represented the States were the same who gave the "Uncle Sam's Tea Party" in that church not long ago with Buch pleasing results. After the concert the booths did a thriv ing business. There were four of them, all of different sizes and form, but all draped in the national colors, and representing the four sections of the Battery. They were presided over by Sergeants Marks, Stewart, Ewing and Rambler. The wares consisted ot everything salable, from a china cup to a rocking chair, donations from various firms anxious that "the boys" succeed in getting their new full-dress uniforms, for which the fair and bazaar is given. This evening and every succeeding evening until the close of the month dancing t ill be the programme at the armory. The officers of Battery B are Captain A. E. Hunt, First Lieutenants Sheppard and Brown, Second Lieutenant Kimmel, Quartermaster, Second Lieuten ant Lloyd. A BRILLIANT AFTEEH00N TEA TohoChen N'eit Fridaj.at the TV. Dcwecs Wood Mansion.

IS THE WILDWOOD FIELD. The Big I'attison Gusher Shows a Decided Decline In Production. rfPKCTAL TZLEGKAU TO TUX DISrATCH.1 Wild-stood, Dec. 8. The important feature of the Wild wood field to-day is the decline of the big gusher on the southwest line. The production of this pool has been overestimated and is now on the decline, and will be until something new comes to make good the falling off of the old wells. A gauge of the Governor Fattison to-day indicates its production as SO barrels an hour and No. 2 Pattison 15 barrels an honr. Barnsdall & Co.'s Kress is doing 1,200 barrels a day. This well only a week ago was producing 2,400 barrels a dav, which is a decline of one-half. The Roth Oil Com pany and the Forest Oil Company expect the sand in No. 9 Harbush to-morrow. Guf fv & Queene and theForet Oil Company's No. 3 Rolshouse, 30 acres, 300 feet southwest from the Governor Pattison, will also tap the pay to-morrow night with no bad luck. The Forest Oil Company and Griffith will, in a lew days, bring in their No. 4 Rols house and Nos. 7 and 8 Whitesell. McDonald Station In working at the McDonald well to-day thev had the misfortune to break the cable, leaving the tools in the hole. The well has produced 13 inches, or about 30 barrels, since it was struck last Thursday. The same parU.-s who own the McDonald well commenced drilling to-day their old well No. 1, a half mile west of the above well, down to the sand. The result of the venture will be watched with no little interest, as in the event of it proving a paying investment it will serve as an incentive to considerable new filth sand developments, t The Scypes & liott well at Brightwood was tubed and packed Saturday, but owing to the packer not being tight they pulled the tubing to-day.
