A Brilliant Reception.
After the Heel was put up last
night, the Protection boys adjourned
to the Firemens hall and held a very
brilliant and recherche reception, in
honor of “Farale," (Mr. J.' J. Farns
worth) whole soon to leavens for
his old home in Knoxville. A har
monica was produced, and the boys
officiated therewith by turns, while
the rest "tripped the light fantastlo”
number nines, or glided like swans,
gazelles and other gracoful things,
through the "mazes of tho waltz."
Half of the boys removed their coats
which distinguished him as a lady.
A smoking pot of coffee arrived
shortly from mother llowe.. K-ranss,
the baker, furnished the buns, dough
nuts, and other good things, Mr.
Middelton got a box of cigars, and
the boys were fixed for a good time.
The gentlemen then escorted their
“ladies” to tho “banqueting table,”
which “fairly groaned beneath its
loads of delicious ’viands,” etc. But
no American jollification is complete
without a speech, and one after
another displayed his "oratory” in a
manner highly satisfactory to his
comrades. Even “Uncle John Green”
as the lioys call him, had to^ malft
a speech. Ed Herzog says it was a
“full dress ball,” but we will venture
The following words. of warning
from the Madisonian applies equally
as well to ourfttlr "city by the seat”
"Recent developments speak in thun
der tones to the parents of this, city,
and 'unless parents keep a more
watohfal sye over their sons, that
many of them will live to regret it.
Boys permitted'to run heiter skeiter

places to hear the bad. talk of the
vile, to bo invited and tempted to
drink or engage in games unprofita

A Fire.
An alarm last night at eleven
brought the firemen out in double-
quick order, only to find the' cause
nothing but a small out building' in
the rear of the Osgood brlok build'
ing in frill blaze. The Protections
got a stream on it, just not to be
cheated out of the ftw, but there was
really no occagtau for it The fire
must have MHBttted by some per
son, either frot^ Ctleaire to create a
sonsatibn, or frorJr bu honest desire
to clear away the old shanty, which
was really ot> eyq aory. , .

OlHcials of the road haVc often

been somewhat limited, partly from

Mr. Alderman, reported in yester
day’s issue as severely woundod'by
a pistol shot in his own hunds, still
lies extremely lop. Later inquiry
does not sustain the suicide theory,
but rather that tho wound was the
result of the reckless handling of the
pistol, while under the influence of
liquor. His wife attempted to take
the weapon from him, fearing that
lie would kill one of the children, and
in the struggle the pistol was dis
charged and the ball lodged over the
door. He recocked the pistol, for
what purpose is not known, and fell
on the bed. The pistol was in his
left hand and ns he fell discharged,
the ball entering his side. Mrs. Al
