Case of Fire.
in accordance with the new custom
established by the Common Council,
two firemen were stationed, last even-

apparatus in case of fire. This prac-
tice will be followed at each perform-
ance in the future. The firemen for this
week will be chosen from Old Well

it is probable that arrangements will '
be made so that each company will
supply men for a week in turn. It is
also expected that these men will be in
