lne poiico investigating committee
. .. . . ..
have agreed to recommend to tho council
tho dismissal of all the present police
force, to that they, way hire them over
agaitt. Tho commlttco came to tho con-
clusion, that (ill complaints, hnvo Igrown
out of the fact that officers, to obtain foes
have been loo quick to arrci for trivial of
fenses. To remedy this ovil it is proposed
that tho fees shall be knocked of), andlin
lieu thereof an addition mado to tho
monthly salaries. The now constitution
provides that the salary of an elected or
appointed officer shall not bor increased lor
decreased during his term of office. To g'et
over this impediment, tbe poiico aro to be
discharged, their salaries raised, and they
re-appointed. Tho question is: "Will the
police force, when tho incentive oft fcW is
romoved, bo ns efficient as they sliduld be?"

of Cairo graced the occasion by their pres.
nee, and every one knows.who knows any
thing, that Cairo chivalry is not to be
SDoozodat. It Is a big thing.
MUSIC
arose with iU voluptuous swell from two
violins, played by twosorlous looking men
In asorlous way.sltting on abarrol of serious
aspect, and which rejoiced in a bune hole
that woro an expression of intensely seri
ous agony. The tuno was llvoly a cross
between "Dixlo" nnd tho " Rocky Road
to Dublin," and a quadrille, formod in tho
middle of the room, composed of men of a
serious cast of countenance, danced with
lively seriousness, as the caller cried tho
figures in a volco that would have dono
credit to tho serious tones of Ami-
nadab Sleek in tho "Serious Fam
ily." At the head of the first set
was a gentleman tall and slim, with chin
whiskers, and a serious smile. Ills partner
was a gentleman of portly aspect, and re
joicing In a paunch that even the pro
verbial alderman would be proud of. Tbo
is a vis of this couple wn a rather small
man, with full whiskers, and his partner
rrfan wtio likes good living and1 takes su-'
ear in hls'n. . On tho sides ware four hamnl
fellows, lUiie skllled'ln the'j'Tcrpslchorian
art. Thoy, danced In tbe style of tho
Shaken, and, longing for the final figure,
kopt their eyes on the bar in tho corner.
When the music ceased, the dancers drank,
and everybody drank, aad then all hands
drank again, after which they all
drank and repeated. By this time seri

grew fasi and furious. Everybody shouted,
overybody dancod, ororybody drank,
everybody, clinked glasses. " Form for
X QCADIULLK,"
shouted tbe floor manager. "A round
dance," cried a festive youth. This was
an apple' of discord. The floor manager
insisted on a quadrille, and the festive
youth on a round dance. Tbe floor mana
ger went for the iostive youth, and the fes
tive youth reached for the floor manager.
Then tho ball opened in earnest. Big
men and littlo men, big boys and little
boys, talking, shouting, swearing, swinging
their arms, rushed from ono end of the
room to another, and confusion becamo
confounded, and the devil wm to pay. And
there sat the two sorious fiddlers on the
serious barrel, sawing the dried intestines
of a dead cat. ' Finally peace was restored,
and the reveling raffiers departed seriously
ono after another; but yesterday morning
they put in an appearance at the police
court, the most serious looking' men that
ovor mot to answer the offended law; Tho
raffle did not come off. Owing to circum
