HOME AND VISITING FIREMEN Tho Royersford Laddies and a Homo Company to Groet Each Other A Nice Pioco of Pottsvllle Impudence. REEDEN, the East Centre Btreet barber, is on the warpath. At an early hour a few mornings since some joung men tools his large standing sign from its fastenings and placed it Ih front of a tailor shop three squares away. Tho sign is a heavy thing and was restored to its propor placo with no little trouble. Cree den was at first inclined to await bis chance for vengeance when tho parties would call at his place to be thavod. He intended to shave but half their facos and let other barbers finish the work, but ho has since concluded to have tho parties arrested. Another resident of the First ward com plains bitterly of oarly morning practical Jokes and says that the gate of his yard fence is taken from its hinges and carried up tewn on an average of threo times a week. He has discovered tho jokers and threatens to prosecute. The policemen have beon mewrod (or their winter overcoats. This seems to bo taking time by the forelock, but the step is none too early. Tho polico find the early morning hours at this season too chilly for the summer outfit. Tbo Columbia Hoso Company boys ex pact to have several of tho Koyorsford company as their guests in town to night Tho Koyorsford firemen and Columbias aro great chums and when they get together thoy gonorally havo a royal timo. When tho Columbias went to Royersford a few yoars ago they were practically hold pri3 onors there fo- two days over the tlnio they intended to remain. Whon they did get away thoy brought two elegant foot stools of horseshoe shape that now help to ornament the Columbia parlor. "When the Royersford men started for the convention at Hazleton their programmo was to "make a week of it," which is their custom annually. -They visit the loading towns en route and Shenandoah is on tbo pro gramme for the return trip this year. The members of this company are" very agree able fellows and seem to be in good con dition. Their uniforms aro similar to thoso of tho paid lire departments. V The deaths of David Parry and Michael McUalo havo put the members of the G. A. 11. under a sentimental spell. All tho "vets" are growing old and tho two deaths of this week verify tho oft-ropeated asser tion that within a Uvt years the last of the horoos will have answorod tho final roll call. Whon Ralph Oliver walked through tho yard connocted with his rosidence on North Main street yestorday he saw a tortoise crawling over the path. He picked it up and found the following cut upon the shell, "0. H. Zimm, 1831, May." Mr. Oliver would like to locato "C. II. Zimm" so as to got an idea of how far tho lortoiso has traveled since the Inscription was made. Several members of ono of tho Ashland fire companios paid a visit to town last night while en route homo from Hazl.toc. Thoy were In a lively mood and brought several of their pranks with them. One of them walked off with a sign that was in front of Scheider's restaurant. Mr. Scheider could not see tho funny part of tho joke and the sign was returned to avoid a Euit. Many of our townsmen who visited Hazleton wore indignant upon their return last night The oauso of tbo indignation was an attempt of the Pottsvllle Humana Company to treat thorn as asetof "Jays." It Booms that tho Columbia Hoso Company took tho Grant Band with It to Hazleton at considerable exponso. Just bofore the parade started ono of tha marshals, upon the solicitation of tho Humane company, asked the Columbias to accept tbo services of another band and let tho Grant band march at the bead of tho Humane com pany. The Columbias, very naturally, refused to accede and the Humano com pany did not parade. Thero seems to be an impression on the part of tho Pottsvllle pooplq that thoy carry tho wholo county In thoir pockots and the ownership to everything to which they may take a fanoy Is dopendont mere, ly upon their asking for it. "Mamma buy mo that," as It were. Tho Hazlojon episode might have passed without com. mont If it had not followed a similar incident which occurred at Mahanoy City on Labor Day. That cheeky pioco of buiinoss is still fresh in tbo minds of our people. A Pottsvllle organization wanted the Shenandoah O, A, It, post to walvo it right to petition near tbo boad of the line and mado suoli a diigraceful exhibition over the matter that the post of town bo came disgusted and left tbo line, PSTKR. GOING UP AGAIN. Soldiers' Monument Subscribers' Start for the S 1,000 Murk. With the return of the veterans front Washington the subscriptions to th soldiers' monument fund has taken another upward move. To-day throe plodgos amounting to fifteon dollars nero mado and tho total to date is J516. Every cent of these plodgos havo been contributed voluntarily and without tho slightest solici tation. Everybody says the town should hav a soldiers' monument and cvorybody should contributo to it. During tho past few days tho contribu tions have not beon coming in very lively, bill this was due to a dosire of people to await the return of tho veterans and see what the G. A. It. poet proposes doing. Tho Post will undoubtedly take action in a few daysi The plodgos to-day were as follows: Max Reese 8 5 II. J.

Superintendent Freeman and tho Scboil Board have already given the matter con sidnrablo attention and there are assurances that tho school children and teachers will be propared to carry out tho part of tho celebration assigned to them, but the cili zens and societies are oxpectod to give them some encouragement by showing a dis position to carry out their part.
