this afternoon to a big smoke at the
foot of the hill on First avenue south
of Washington street. The alarm
was found to be due to setting fire to
a stump at the back of the Terminal
laundry. No notice had been given
that the fire was being lighted and
thus the alarm was brought about.

“ PALACE JINGLES ” ,
When Ned is feeling lucky,
Or has a busy hour
We really believe his one best bet,
Is that famous Eastern Sour.
' With crushed fruits from the tropics,
And ice from this Northern Land.
And Sherwood Rye, he frames a drink
That tastes just simply grand.

Fate held out nothing on his taste, j
And he measures every drop,
And when you’ve tasted that “best
bet,”
You scarce know when to stop.
Of course the goods he has to serve
Makes most anyone a star,
But we’ve got the goods, and we’ve
got the man,
Down at The Palace Bar.
