Strengthened up again. After all was run

served on the vine-covered porch, and
Jimmy and his aunt were invited over
Jimmy thought it, all in all, the most gor-
geous and blissfully happy cay of his ex
istence.
While they ate and chatted a neighbor,
who had left the festivities early. passed by
and pauseI at the gate long enougn to describe
the glori of the celebration. Mark Lyons,
his fine appearance and gallant conduct as
marshal were dwelt upon. This was a cup
of NORWOOD for Jimmy, but it was moth
ing to the bitterness which flooded his soul
when he saw Mark Lyons, in all his glory,
ride up to the gate and make bold to alight.
About that time Jimmy's aunt remembered
pressing duties at home an / rose to depart,
intimating to Jimmy that certain duties
awaited him also. But for that he would
have had the courage to remain where he
was and brave it out with Mark Lyons. He
went with Jealousy and envy gnawing at his
heart like two hungry rats.
As soon as he was on his own ground he
prepared to discharge his last patriotic, Par
THAN arrow, as it were. Just below the
slight bill that the Mcdonald house occupied
a blacksmith's shop stood. 1t was a quiet
spot, even on ordinary days, standing as it
did of the street a distance But to-day it
was particularly lonesome. the blacksmith
being down at the grove with the other pa
triotic citizens Its doors were closed, but an
accommodating window on the west side was
rarely shut, and Jimmy Carroll knew just
how to get into it He and the blacksmith
were on the best Of terms, and Jimmy had
long had it in his minds eye as the At and
proper theatre for a certain bit of recreative
pleasure In contemplation.
The two youn. people on the veranda
were so much engaged in quarreling about
the black-eyed Goddess Of Liberty that they
did not see Jimmy as he walked past with q
look Of expectant triumph on his face and
queer looking basket swinging from one
hand. They would have shown more interest
in him, am sure, had they known that the
queer looking basket was an old felt hat
sewed up with Irvine, and that it contained
a can Of dynamite which Jimmy had kept
hidden in his aunt's best cupboard for a
month They would have been more than
interested had they known at that minute
what was passing in Jlmmy's bitter little
heart. But love and jealousy were making
them both SO unhappy that they could see
nothing in the world outside Of themselves
and their anger.

Tho Fears Of tho Fathers.

All that the world now understands by
the word America-its democratic institu-
tions, its breadth OF personal privilege, its
vast political opportunities, its immense
material wealth and resources. its historic
achievements and the great characters it has
given to the worlds undying regard-comes
from, or is indissolubly associated with,
the event which the Fourth of July honors
and commentaries
The declaration Of 1776 was not Q surprise
to many OF the co.onists, but it outran the
Thought of most 1t was received something
as Lncon's immortal Proclamation Of
Emancipation was received-with intense
enthusiasm by the majority, but with sullen
opposition or outspoken protest by q large
minority. The new nation did not excite
magnificent expectations in any quarter.
The eloquent predictions of John Adams
were uttered in a moment of great excite
ment, and were shared by very few of his
compatriots. The fathers felt the terrible
responsibility laid on their shoulders too
heavily to indulge in the luxury of splendid
hopes or prophetic dreams The stern reali-
ties of the situation were too urgent and try
ing; the war they were engaged in with one
of the most poweri al nations was too I'M
equal and uncertain in its issue to admit of
castle building. The long and wasting cam
paigns waged without resources, and after
the early enthusiasm had died away, told on
their coura and alienated many and de-
pressed all but the heroic few. The effect of
the final victory was heightened by the fact
that it was unexpected by most of the
peonle The adoption of tine Fe leral con-
stitution and the organization of the present
national government in 1880 awakened no
high expectations and elected no fine pre-
dictions of permanent SUCCESS 1t was .
work of necessity and was done with more
fear than hope The splendid result that
we Lehold and enjoy and celebrate With so
much enthusiasm has come without antIci

CitV Licenses

The council committee on licenses had the
license ordinance before it yesterday for gen.
eral revision. The question of saloon licenses
was not preached directly, although it was oc-
casionally limited at. The petition from the
butchers, asking for material reduction, was
taken up and discussed. After protracted
debate it was voted to recommend to the
council tomorrow night that the regular
butchers license be lowered to S25 per wear.
and that the itinerents pay $50. The commit
tee fixed the licenses for foot peddlers at SIS.
and $50 for peddlers with teams. A Il
Knowles and James +. Drawn, two wholesale
liquor dealers, asked that the saloonkeepers
be required to give heavier bonds, but nothing
was done in the premises. Mary J. McQuade

no other way of earning a livelihood The
prayer was not granted. The licenses for

DISTRICT COURT BRIEFS.

The case of John Ecl1man against the street

alleged to have been sustained by a child of
the defendant, who was injurned on a turn
table some time ago was begun yesterday
before Judge Lochren, and, after being
partially tried, was dismissed.
A conclusion was reached yesterday in the
case OF I'll. NJ. Carpenter against the Mime
apolis, Lyndale s. Minnetonka Railway COM
pany. The plaintiff alleged that in 1879 the
company took possession, and has since
occupied, land owned by him ON the corner of
Hennepin avenue and Lake street, without
giving payment for the same. He wanted
judgment for possession of the land and
$1,000 damages. The railroad company
originally claimed that the land had been
given by Mr.. Carpenter, but the question was
settled in the courts a year ago by judgment
for the plaintiff. After being out a short
time the jury returned verdict for the
plaintiff of $4,000. The defendants have
commenced proceedings for the condemna-
ton of other land on either side of the strip

THE COUNCIL WILL CoNFfRM
The Mayors Appointments at Its
Meeting Tonight.


The city council will meet tonight. The
principal business will be the confirmation
of the police appointments and that of
Chris A. Gallagher as water commissioner.
Despite the vigorous kicks that have been
formulated by various parties, and despite
certain threats that have been made. there
is no question about the confirm
ations. AS was reported in these
columns, the council committee on
police agreed to the nominees The only
argument waged against the confirmation of
Mr.. Gallagher seems to be that he is poor
man, not taxpayer, and not a practical
man. The kickerS could scarcely have sent
their shafts wider of the mark. Mr.. Gal
lagher, before reading law, was practical
machinist and thoroughly understands the
requirements of the position in that partic-
ular, and it may be safely stated that he
Outranks any other member of the board in
that respect. In regard to his being poor
man and not taxpayer, suffice it to say
that Mr.. Gallagher has at his command a
capital of something like 500, 600, which
he is about to invest in Minneapolis indus
