musical treat.
A fonHumer’s Complaint.
Enquirer-Sun: Please give space to the follow
ing lines: What is the matter with our oil?
There has been a considerable change in the
quality of the kerosene oil we have been using in
the last two months, and we have changed our
places of buying several times, aud know that it
is not so only at. one place.
We may 1111 our lamps until they won’t hold
“‘Harry bit” more, and they will not burn half an
Dour until they need snuffing, or rather need
more oil in them. The light is simply dim at
best. We certainly need bettor oil, aud unless
there is a considerable change for the better in
the quality it will be useless to buy it at all. We
think that testing has gone out of style, and that
the testers simply imagine it good or "standard.”

A BRILLIANT BEOINING.
The Ausplclaas Opening of the Jewish Fair Last
Night—A Large Attendance—Mayor Grimes*
Address, Etc.
The fair for the benefit of the new Jewish
Synagogue was opened last night under the most
favorable auspices. The second store room of the
corner Webster building had been transformed
into a perfect bower of beauty. The interior was
handsomely decorated and numerous booths
lined each side, and at these booths presided the
fairest of our fair women. In them were stored a
large number of handsome and valuable articles
which are to be disposed of as the fair progresses.
The attendance last night was very large and
the fair was formally opened by Mayor Grimes.
His honor, the mayor, was introduced by Mr. J.
H. Gabriel, who said : *
“For the first time in the history of the Israel
ites of Columbus, we come before the public in
an organized effort to procure help for the erec
tion of a house of worship. This is a task, which
for our small and unaided members is hopeless
ly stupendous. It is useless to enlarge on this
point. It is well understood that the
Israelites of Columbus are better known
for their fiberality than their numbers. I am
reminded that this is not an occasion for speech
making. The enterprise speaks fur itself—in its
dignity, the worthiness of the object. Therefore,
it is with pleasure that I assume the duty of in
troducing to you a gentleman who won your ap
probation in the past, and who you confess mer
its your respectful attention—a gentleman first in
peace, first in fairs and first in the hearts of gur
citizens. Ladies and gentlemen, permit me to
introduce to you your worthy onayor, Clifford B.
Grimes.”
MAYOR GRIMES* SPEECH.
Mayor Grimes then arose and spoke as follows:
"Ladies and gentlemen: It affords me infinite
pleasure, both as a private citizen arid as mayor
of your city, to formally open to you this fair, in
augurated for the benefit of a building which
should be dear to the hearts both of Jews and
Christians.
"If we pause for a moment to consider what
Judaism has done for the world; when we look
at our code and remember Sinai; when we kneel
at our shrines and worship that God-man, who
was a child of Judah, surely every sentiment of a
Christian soul should be in sympathy with the
progress and development of this people, whose
history is the history of truth, and in whose tra
ditions are preserved for us the sublimest lessons
of humanity. About the year 1840, as I am in
formed, n little company of Columbus Israelites
formed themselves into a benevolent society. As
years passed the society grew in numbers and
importance, and in 1859 there was organized a
congregation of Israelites who bought aud remod
eled the little house of worship which they have
now decided to replace with a building more
suitable to the enlarged needs of their growing
and prosperous numbers, and that will be an
ornament to the city.
"From 1840 to 1886 the steady march of progress
has proceeded with unbroken tread; the little
band of devoted worshipers has become a ..con
gregation numbering amongst its members some
of our most intelligent, substantial and worthy
citizens. It is right and proper that the “ little
brown synagogue around the corner” should be
supplanted by a more pretentious and commodi
ous edifice.
"Therefore it gives me unqualified pleasure to
open this fair aud to invite to it for patronage, as
well as for evidence of csteefe, all the citizens of
our benevolent city.
"Let us meet here in a spirit of mutual help
fulness; let us join hands in brotherly love—Jew
aud Christians—alike putting forth strenuous
efforts to crown with success this praiseworthy
enterprise of those devoted daughters of Isreal,
whose names will live in the hearts of fature
congre ations and whose memory shall survive
aud blossom for all years to come.**
At the conclusion of Mayor Grimes’ speech the
festivities began, and was one the scene of unusual
gayety. Besides the pleasant social features, those
in attendance spent taeir small change freely,
and, if the first night is to be taken as a criterion,
the fair will be oue of the most successful enter
tainments of the kiud ever given in Columbus.
We have been requested to state that lunches
will be served to-day, and. the ladies will take
pleasure iu furnishing our business men with
their dinners. Our citizens should patronize this
entertainment with open-handed liberality.

The executive board held a meeting last night
at which Mr. M. B. Williams, state secretary, was
present. The board determined to press the
matter energetically„ and will continue their
work until $2500 is contributed. The ladies have
become interested in the matter, and when this
is the case success is assured. Every member of
the board is expected to come up to the fall meas
ure of duty, and if they do this there will be little
difficulty in obtaining the required amonnt.
At the meeting last night the state secretary
gave an interesting talk, and made valuable sug
gestions to the committee. Mr. Williams will
probably leave the city to-day, but will make an
other visit in the near fature.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The Monthly Meeting of the Trustees—The Num

The regular monthly meeting of the board of
trustees of the public schools was held last night.
The following trustees were present: B. F. Cole
man, president; James Smith, N. N. Curtis, Isaac
I. Moses. Dr. N. J. Bussey, B. H. Crawford, John
Kiug.
Superintendent Mooty, in his mouthly report,
states that the schools are all in fine condition
and working smoothly. His report shows672
pupils in attendance at the white schools and 935
in the colored schools.
A resolution was passed suspending all the
schools at 12 o’clock on Christmas eve, resuming
again on Monday morning, January 3, D87.
The matter of the boys playing foot ball in the
streets near the boys’ school before school takes
in and during the gpcesses was discussed by the
board. The superintendent was instructed to
permit them to play under such rales and re
strictions as he may prescribe, so long as they
conform to them 3nd their playing does not be
come a nuisance to the neighborhood.
Iu consideration of the unusual spell of weather
aud the bad condition of the streets during the
recent snow, the board decided that absence
from school on Monday, the 6th, must not oper
ate to debar any pupil from earning a place on
the roll of honor.
Almost a Uouilagratlon.
About 6 o’clock yesterday afternoon, a sampler
of Messrs. Barnwell & Coffin, the cotton shippers,
was carrying a basket of samples through the
office, and in passing the gas jet, which had just
been lit, the cotton was ignited and the flames
conveyed to other samples in the room. The
fire was put out by the use of the hose and plug in
the Planters’warehouse. There was no mate
rial damage, but a, great deal of smoke and a
narrow escape from a large conflagration.
