The Thirteenth marched down to bri gade headquarters a-nd bid General Gobln good-bye. lie made a grand speech and It seemed strange to see a man that had passed through tho lato war and who for his bravery and valor won a high j-osltlon in the rank of a soldier, break down on leaving a few men who, he said, had been the stand ard of the N.

'A PECKVILLE. FIREMEN AROUSED. Think Ther Aro .Not llelng Tronted tight by Councils The proposed ordinance creating a city Are department which is now in the hands of the joint lire committee of the councils doea not meet with the approval of the llremen, especially those of tho Mitchell company. The fire committee held a special meeting behind closed doors on Wednesday evening and when a committee from the Mitchell' asked for an audience it is stated they were refused. The cause of the dlfasatlsfaction among the Mit chell's Is probably because th new ordinance proposes to put the city In possession of their team of horses by purchase. The committee retuspd to make the outcome of their meeting public and a great deal ot impatience exists among the tlremen regarding their decisions. The Mitchell boys do not favor the project of taking any of their present hose away from them and theraten to leave the department. A special meeting has been called for Sunday to discuss their grievances. ALL GONE TO WAR. Patriotism has cut up the old Harry with the Hallstead Herald.
