Fl. c. Blakeslee's farm is near this city.
number Of calves have been running
about in a piece of woods on the farm for
week or so past. One day last week E.
NJ. johnson, a hired man on the farm,
heard a great bleating by one of the
calves. Hurrying to the woods FROM which
the noise came, he discovered that an
enormous eagle had swOoped down on
the calf and was trying to carry it away.
The Size of the calf made this an i'm
possible task. But the eagle persisted
gamelv in its efforts, in spite of the pres
ence of the hired man. The latter ran
back to the house and got a shotgun, and,
returning, fired a charge into the eagle,
which was still tearing at the calf with its
talons and beak. The shot broke one of
the eagles wings, and the bird re-
Iinquishe1 its hold on the calf, and turned
on Johnson. The cries of the calf, the re-
port of the gun, and the shouts OF the
hired man brought others to the spot, and
the great bird was captured alive after a
desperate struggle. 1t was imprisoned in
an outbuildng. This eagle is one of the
largest specimens ever captured, as it
measures over nine and a half feet from
tip to tip of its wings.

town has Joined in the uproar and there
is more concrcted noise to the cubic inch
than was ever known before on this ausp-
cious day.
The eDulItion OF patriotic sentiment
that finds its outlet in exploding torpe-
does firc-crackars and toy pistol Ooting,
as asso lated with the incoming, contlnu
Huce and departure Of Independence Day,
was bora long ago, for there has always
been som thing exhilirating in proclaim
ing oneself an American patriot by resort
ing to either fiery oratory or burning gun
powder.
The day is one of boisterous, noisy mer-
rimant and ofmueh gaseous carnations. 1t
is tn" day Of the year ior the young raga-
mullins, the Fourth Of July orators and
the actors. either with bail or buskin. 1t
is no-man STAND in this country from the
dawn that announces the approach OF the
greater light until in ths earths revolu-
ton the gray light of the da wnng shall
he seen again. 1t is the Nations birth
body within the Union, so that an occa-
sion arises for mutual pleiging Of
every boIy's good health. Some OF
the "thce.thou' good old leather breeched
citizens who celebrated the first annver-
sary Of this glorious day are probably
still joining in the recurring celebration OF
their triumph each and every year, for
patriotic sentiment, love OF country and
desire to celebrate its natal day never die
mere physical death, nor reach state
OF innocuous desuetude, whatever becomes
of the body. Standing and silently the
entire Nation drinks to the ever cherished,
honored memory OF the patriots who, in
the agony and travail Of their souls and
with their blood, gave birth to our great
Independence DAY, whether it be from out
Il skull or the drinking horn Of the ancient
warrior. or from the silver, gold-lined
tankarl of to-day. For we should all re
member the men that gave us the chance
the excuse for-and set us the example of
firing off kicking, jumping, rafting crack
ers and INDUCING in works and gen
eral hullabaloOl
The Fourth of July is a red-letter day
they are on the way and at picnics, and
about the green swards of the commons
or parks. The young man sports clean
collar and a colored neck-tie shaver face,
waxcd mustache, and in his Sunday-go-
connecting clothes he walks erect and
looks with smiling face and open, candid
eyes at tn, fair young lassie who, dressed
in modest white calico, which sets off a
pretty figure not vet warped and distigured
by hard labor, and wearing natty hat
made and remade by her own nimblc fin
gers, smiles and laughs in return. And as
they walk on and on, gay and festive on
this great holiday, they are full OF fun and
elastic spirits, for the oxygen of the air is
inspiring, and they laugh and chat and
Joke and romp, and have good time
generally.
But all the racing, tearing, shouting

confined to young couples, sweeter as be-

tween than selves than molasses on bread
buttercd OF both sides, but is being joined
in by all the pleasure seeking men, women,
boys and girls that long for the excite
mcnt of music and dance, and roundabouts
and swings and mineral waters so pro-
fuselv provided at picnics and parks,
especially on such heated and extraordi-
nary days as the great national holiday
which sets free all the working people and
their cousins.
OF course the day has it's great distrac-
lions, but after breakfast and the discus
sion of coffee, and while the children, and
the neighbC;ing children, and the neig hbor.
ing neigh5oring children, are firing off tor
pedOes or fire-crackers or tOy-pistols and
making all the noise and distraction pos
sible, the "old man" lights his cigar, goes
to his office or store reads his mails and
hands them over to be attended to by hui
man moles, while his wife dresses up in her
best silks, and wears a lovely imported bon
net upon which is mounted a beautiful bird
that evidently was stuffed before it died,
and after criticisng the dress of the minis
ter's wife listens to her favorite preacher,
who delivers discourse upon the signif-
canoe OF the day.
A separation of the family follows in the
afternoon in the celebration of the Fourth
Of July, in a good many cases, for as usual
there is great excitement over running
race or that celebrated baseball match, to
take place on the village common or in a
pickstsd field, between The Iavineiblss and

the InsurmountabIes, and it is always a
toss-up how the struggle between the two
teams can end except in q draw, al
though the record shows that on different
occasion the Invincibles had defeated the
Insurmountables. and vice versa. But no
one but an expert can understand base
ball record, and probably in each case the
decision was the fault Of the referee. The
ladies are glad to be rid Of their lords in
the terrific heat Of the afternoon of the
Fourth Of July, with the mercur. in the
shade hugging one hundred degrees Of
Fahrenheit, for in their elegant loose
wrappers and the demi-deshablle per
mitted in the privacy of the home, they
are able to read the latest novel or
d-o-z-e. Generally, sub rosa the latter.
But the glorious Fourth OF July is
chiefly enjoyed TO its fullest extent among
the rising generation, the boys and girls
Unluckv and disgrac ed, indeed, is the boy
who. at the end OF the bombardment OF
the day, has got off without powder
burn, or a shot finger, or even his tOggery
unsinged. Probably the greatest hero is
the boy who not only has, with his toy
pistol, carelessly and adrotly winged
another boy, but who, in the melee, has
also been able to do-what is by no means
| a rare feat-wOund himself with his own
weapon. for many a grown-up man has
foolishly looked down the muzzle OF
gun, and the generous spirit of the boys
is shown by the greater number OF times
In which they shoot themselves instead OF
