OL'R Filth' DEPARTMENT.
Sonic Fact* In Regard to II.
As onr city is being so prominently
discussed by Northern people, it seems
to us that it would ho worth while to in
form them of the moro than usually
good fire department Ainericus can boost
of. For a little place of six thousand
souls it is hotter protected in case of tire
than many of the larger cities in Georgia.
Indeed, it is a standing surprise to the
visitors to sec how well equipped we are.
The first tiro organization tlmt was
ever successful in thiseity was the “Wide-
Awake” Fire Co.. No. 1, which was or
ganized as a Hook and Ladder Co.,
January 8th, 1808, but was ic-orgunixed
as an Engine Company December 1st,
the same year, when the oid hand engine
that has been used l»y LhetVigihmcc com
pany was purchased of Macon, it then
being quite an old engine. The hand
engine has been in use tor about 30 years.
About the yea? 1S70 tho city came to the
conclusion that one engine was not suf
ficient, and the ateaiiK r “Sumter" was
purchased ut an outlay of $5,500. The
colored company Vigilance was then or
ganized, who took charge of the hand
engine. Before the steamer was bought,
however, tho old method of extinguish
ing fires was,resorted to when necessary—
that of the buckets, uudat onetime good
work W:i« accomplished, a cotton ware
house ht-j.ig saved from fire.
The “Suuiter” proved to he of good
sound material, and bus saved I he city
many dollars. Only, two of the original
officers of the Wide-Awake company are
now members—J. B. Felder and E. J.
Eldridge, the former being Treasurer
and the latter Surgeon. It is supposed
that about a dozen of the original mem
bers now belong, the rest having with
drawn or moved away. Very tew, how
ever, it may he said to the credit of tho
company, have withdrawn.
About two years after the Wide-Awake
was organized the fire department of
Albany was invited to a contest and re
ception iu this city, which invitatiou was
accepted, resulting iu costing our com
pany tho neat little sum of $1,000, which
rather retarded the development of the
company financially. The Albany com
pany catue off victorious iu tho contest,
but our hoys went down there afterward
and wou hack their good reputation.
Ainericus has been rather fortunate in
tho matter of fires, as there have been hut
three or four of any consequence in
twelve or fourteen years, one burning
out tho buildings from where Scluimpert,
Roney* *fc King now have their store to
Dr. Burt’s office, and another burning up
the City Hall and the buildings from
Harris, James & Willford’s to Chapman’s.
About three years ago au alarm wus
given ofa lire in tho buildings occupied
by W. E. Chirk and the office of Dr.
Dart, but bo quickly ^id Vigilance Co.,
answer that no danger worth notice was
done. Last fire of any note was the
burning down of tho wooden buildings
where the opera house now stands,
which was in tho spring of 1880.
Last spring our company was invited
to a contest m Macon to compete against
other companies. Our company was tho
finest looking set of men and lmd tho
nobbiest uniforms, and lmd they had as
good an engine as tho balance, would no
doubt have carried away the honors. But
tho old steamer got away with them.
GritUn hail two engines, both good;
Iliwkinsville hud one nice one, which
was in fine working order, and when
tho contest narrowed down to eugino
work, Griffin took tho cake. This rattled
our hoys, as they knew they had as good
a company, if not hotter, than Griffin,
and they then and thsro determined to
have an engino worthy of tho company.
The result was that the new steamer was
tho property of the hoys in l ist Septem
ber, $3,350 being paid for it. The La
Franco engino wus purchased under a
rather novel agreement, it being that tho
engino can he returned at any time, if,
after a trial against uuy other engine, it
was found to b»# inc empetent, the only
stipulation that tho company nmdo was
that they should ho protected iu sizo
against the competing engine. ^
W ide-Awake has now one of tho nicest
halls iu the'eountry, its members are com
posed of the best people of the city, and
it can at any time turn out 40jor 50 uign.
Th ir uniforms cost them about $403,
and are handsome. To kuow thut they
are solid financially it is only necessary
to say that they own bank stock.
vigilance.
Tho colored company was rightly nam
ed, for they are the very perfection of
vigilance. It was organized iu 1870, to
take charge of iiio old hand engine, and
right well have they tuken enroot it. They
have ably assisted in all the fires that
have occurred here since tlieir organiza
tion, uro prompt at roll call and meet
ings, and can at any time turn out GO
men. As a reward and to show how well
they are appreciated, the council have
purchased lately a new hand eugiue for
them, which was tested last Friday night
and foiled to.ho all right. The compa
ny has a nice uniform, good members,
and is solid financially.
**UOTK< TIOX.
Protection Iiook and Ladder Co. No. 1
was oigaiiiz'-d about the latter part of
1808 to take charge of the apparatus that
the Wide-A wake company had before the
hand engine was bought, and has remain
ed organized ever since, always prompt
and faithful at fire alarms. The compa
ny Las charge «*f « little Babcock engine
besides the regular equipment. They
have about 12 or 15 ladders, some about
GO feet long. 34 buckets, about half ft doz
en axis, 125 feet of strong rope, 30 feet
of big chain, and plenty of hooks. About
fifteen ut the men still belong to the
j company that were members when it wan
I first organized. Henry Anderson, the (
present foreman, has occupied that posi
tion in the company for the past five !
years, as has Henry Jones, the secretary, j
MECHANICS. I
This company is n new organization
which is being perfected for tiie purpose of
manning tho old steamer “Sumter.” It
is expected that the city council will have
the necessary repairs made on the old
engine, and give the young men who
propose handling it n chance to distin
guish themselves. Tho new company is
composed mainly of tho young meu of
our city, who liavo plenty of ardor and
enthusiasm aud who will no doubt make
it a crack organization.
notes .
Tho city has five large cisterns. Three
on the square; one ou Church street
near Col. Hawkins, and one on Jackson
street, near Wheatley’s variety works.
Tho authorities uro very careful about
having plentyof water in these cisterns
at all times, as it is shown by the fact that
none have yet given out when needed.
During the summer months, when water
is scarce, no water is used out of them
for drilling purposes.
The department has ubout 1500 feet of
good serviceable hose, and about 500 feet
more than would do for use iu case of au
emergency.
All in all wo have one of the most ef
ficient fire departments in tho state, aud
nobody is prouder ot this fact than the
Recoudeic With »he assurance that we
can turn out four engines and a hook ami
ladder truck, we can afford to snap our
fingers at the destroyer and hid him “go
hence.’’
Firemen of Ainericus, here’s luck to
yon.
MoulesnmR Masquerade.
It was our good fortuity*, last Thurs
day night, to ho present at tho masquer
ade ball in Montezuma. It was tho in
tention of the managers to liavo had tho
ball in Minor’s new* hall, hut ns it was
not finished, l ho old ono was used.
About eight o'clock the maskers und
spectators began to congregate, and by
nine tho hall wns tilled to its utmost
capacity. All manner i>f people aud
characters wore represented, from the
rollicking rover of the seas to the roving
ruffian of the prairies, and as usual, a
goodly number of fools were distributed
umound tho assembly, making fun for
nil. The programme was an unusually
long one, and kept the dancors up late.
Auieticus, of course, lmd a number of
representatives. One masker even went
so far as to say 1m was Cnpt. Georgo S.
Watts, of tho Ainericus Light Infantry.
Tho hall was a success and a credit to its
managers, only it would he advisable for
them to liavo a larger hall next time.
Montezuma, by the way, is ono of tho
nicest little places in this part of tho
state, with its clean, white streots, and
neat, pretty housos. Two very Hue resi
dence are in process of erection, which
will add to tho beauty of its principal
street. We made the acquaintance of n
number of’the young moil of tho place,
and found them all pleasingly intelligent
and polite. Montezuma 1ms a state re
putation for its Minor hotel, kept by our
former townsman, Mr. II. C. Hyatt, and
his estimable wife, and wo can heartily
endorse the good opinion all have of it.
TtioOuly Rvumou.
There is only one reason in the world,
so far as we can see, why moro people
from the North do not emigrate to tho
South, and that is, it costs too much to
live here, and live us cotufortnhly ns in
tho North. Groceries of ull kinds, with
few exceptions, are much Irfgher, on re
count of the long distance they must be
shipped, hut that could he made up very
easily if our farmers would pay more at
tention to marketable food. As it is, all
seem lo have tho cotton craze, nover re
alizing that moro than the surplus of
money made by their cotton crops go
towards paying for tho very goods that
they could raise if a little time was taken
from their eotton and bestowed on othej
things. If a farmer would raise enough
grain to even feed a cow the way she
should be led it would pay him at tho
rate of $2 und more per bushel for hin
trouble and labor, besides liming plenty
of milk and butter for his own table use.
We venture the assertion tlmt not nfore
than one-half tho farmers of this country
have enough butter und milk for their
own table use, ami as a consequence
they suffer from it and their fellow-
crcatures ifi thu cities have to pay 40and
50 cents a pound for butter, or olcoiuar-
ginc. Well, your business man in the
city must get even seme way, and ho
adds about 10 per cent on the price of
hi* goods, in order to pay for his butter.
This is only ono item. Wnut must the
consequence ho when you consider nil of
then. ?
The Reception.
The reception given in honor of Mr.
and Mrs. U. Eugene Byrd by (.’apt. and
Mrs. W. If. Clay and the young men of
Americas last Friday night was one of
the pleasantest nffaiis ever given in tho
city. The bride looked lovely; the
groom smilingly happy and handsome,
and the young ladies and gentlemen
wer«* as pleasant and sociable as anyone
could wish. Dancing was the feature oi
the evening, but the candidates ft* pleas
ure hi that line were few, comparatively
speaking, ns tin* young men seemed to
find as much pleasure in the smiles of
the ladies ns was possible in tho mazes
of the waltz. Refreshments were served
during the evening by tho host and
hostess of the Barlow* Houso, where
the reception was held. The evening wait
pleasantly passed, and all present were
unanimous in the opinion that Mrs, IL
Kugc-neJByrd will make a very attractive
addition the society of oar city.

A Mistake.
W are requested to state, on helmlf of
the young men who had the management
of tho reception on Friday evening, that
no person is individnully responsible
for the issuing of invitations. Three or
four youug men lmd the directing of them
in hand, and tried to invite about 150
porsons with about 85 invitations, hence
the mistake. We hope no one will take
offence at anybody.

We sue announced on our streets in a
