The Fireworks Last Evening.

The exhibition of fireworks, which was
necessarily postponed on the evening of
the Fourth on account of the rain, was
given last evening on the depot park. As
the exhibition had been previously an
nounced, the weather allowing, and as the
night was in every way desirable, an i'm
mense crowd gathered in that vicinity to
see the sport And considerable sport was
had before the exhibition was over. Mer-
chants Row was thronged with spectators
the Bates house windows were alive with
the sight-seers, while the park in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the exhibition was a
mass OF men, women and children, and
every available position throughout the vii
lage was taken and held for the space of
an hour or so, while the rockets bazed and
the sky was illuminated.
Chester Kingsley was master of cere-
monies, and, assisted by competent experts
in the business, covered himself with
glory and blaze of tinted light The ex-
hibition was commenced, at "early candle
light" with sky-rockcts. These were par
ticularly beautiful and at the ultimatum of
their course unfolded an array of gorgeous
tints, combining every color of the rain
bow. A select few of these soarers failed
to soar and in such cases prematurely dis
charged amongst the crowd which caused
much merriment and that's all. The ON
nipresent ''Young America were sure to
rush about the miniature volcano before its
eruption and inevitably scattered when
the sudden burst came.
The pin-wheels were the very best of
their kind we ever saw, and threw out the
loveiest tints of flame and fiery spray. y
line of communication was made at one time
from the second story of Keyes block to
the end of the park, upon which was sent
messengers of fire back and FORTH afford
ing especial attraction to the crowd.
The crowd seemed never to tire in their
gazing, and the result will be. if "e
predict Alright, that many necks will he
heard from to-day. But nevertheless the
occasion was richly enjoyed by ALL and
the committee on fireworks have the
thanks of the community for the very salts
factory exhibition given. The cost of this
part of Rutland's celebration was S145.
