Alarm ot Fire.
Firemen complain of tho inefficiency
of our present fire alarm bell in the mar.,
ket house tower. The bell ia not large
enough, to begin with, and is located in
the western extremity of the city. Let
a tower be erected on the brow of the
hill on Market street, near Fifth, and a
larger bell be put in it and have both
bells wrung in time of fire.

Fire.
The roof of the dwelling on Chestnut,
between Second and Third streets, occu
pied by Mrs. Jno. W. Cameron, was dis
covered to be on fire tnis morniDg about
7 o'clock, by a gentleman who was pass
ing. The fire was, fortunately, discov
ered in its incipiency, and was soon ex
tinguished. The damage was very small
and was easily repaired.
We advise all In need of Household Hard

The Old Landmark.
The fiat has gone forth' and the old
"forty-Iegs," alias MarkelHonse, is to be
sold at auction and removed by the first
day of next January. The street will
then be paved over and the most familiar
landmark in the city will be gone.
There are many who think that; the
location of the old Market House is the
best in the city, but this is a question
which has passed beyond discussion.
Certain is it that its removal will create
a blank on Market street that it will take
a long time to get' fully accustomed to.
A Snsrcestlon.
Would it not be a good idea for the
city authorities to issuo numbers to
draymen and require the numbers to be
worn upon tho drays and have a record
kept of them at the City Hall? The
numbers could be made of lead and
stamped by the city, and put upon the
drays by means of screws. If at any
time the dray should be laid up the num
bers could be returned and issued to some
other. As it is now any one can take a
marking brush and put a number on a
dray and change the number to-morrow if
he so desires.

City Court.
His Honor, Mayor Fishblate, inter
viewed William Quince, colored, this
morning, who was charged with insulting
a police officer. The case was a trival
one and judgment was suspended. ;
Jno. Berry, a colored drayman, was up
for an assault on one of the street force.
The street force were engaged in putting,
down a plank on Water street as Berry
drove up. He was told to stop until the
men could get their hands from under
the board, when he jumped from his dray
and threatened to pummel the foreman
of the force. The Mayor fined him $25
or 30 days in the city prison and he went
below.

Dr. Yates and Mr. fcicaud have both

We desire te call the attention of our
rpaders to the (irand Holiday Offer of
the Mendelssohn Piano Company, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere. This
Company offers an $850 Square Grand
Piano. 3 stringed, 7$ octaves, in a hand
some rosewood case, for only $245. also
many other styles of Pianos" and Organs
at great bar. ains for the Holidays, in
cluding sheet music at one-third price.
These Pianos, including Grand. Square
and Upright, made oue of the finest dis
plays at the Centpnnial Exhibition, and
were unanimously recommended for the
Diploma of Honor and Medal of M'rit.
The Mendelssohn Piano Co. are the
first to do a general business with the
purchaser direct, saving bim jr?io;e than
one half the price charged by other firs'
class makers. " This saving is made by
doing away with the Agency System",
and giving the people the Pianos lat
Wholesale or Agency prices.
We woa Id recommend any of our read
ers who have any idea of ever buying a
piano or organto send for their Illustra
ted and Descriptive Catalogues, which
will be mailed free to all. i t
