And now after all we are to have a
fourth of July parade which will march
through the principal streets of town.
The parade will form on Carbon street, at
a. M, in the following order: Chief
marshal and aids, Red Men. Knights of the
Golden Eagle, Patriotic Sons of America.
There will be general suspension of
work in our shops and on the railroad on
the 4th and 9TH of July thus giving our
people an opportunity to celebrate the
nations birthday in a becoming way. Chis,
we hope, they will do, and not spend it in
carousing as is done so often on this his
toric day.
"A runaway team belonging to a rag
gatherer from Hazleton made things lively
on Wilbur street Monday. From there
the team ran across the creek where it soon
came in close contact with Kemp's photo
graph gallery smashing his show case and
giving his building general shaking up.
Here the wagon upset and the horse was
captured. No one was hurt beyond a few
scratches.
"A four year old child of Ike Miller,
now residing at Weissport formerly at this

ofiiciated. 1t seems several boys at " eiss-
port frightened the little lad into the canal
last Sunday, and, as he could not swim, he
was drowned. Such conduct on the part
of BOYS Is criminal and the matter should
be investigated.
Joseph Cassler, the veteran buckle
berry man. commenced to ship berries on
Monday. In conversation with him, we
learn that this is quite business around
here, atfordng employment TO hundreds of

and Buck Mountain to buy the berries from
the pickers at these places, and hundreds

Mr. Cassler would be close to the actua

The good people of this town will have
an opportunity to enjoy the 4th either at
Lehighton or Mauch Chunk, both of these
places will celebrate the day in a becoming
way-all needed now is fair day.
-Packerton has many who are interested
in the Lehighlon club, this was noticible
Saturday evening in the anxiety to hear
from lIazleton. We do not think the
Lehighton team will lower their colors to
any amature club in the state.
The very genllemanly treatment of the
Cuban Giants, by the home club also by
the citizens caused favorable comment by
yisitors-perfect order prevailed during the
game. The entire absence of Powdyis m is
a guarantee that ladies need not hesitate to
witness game at Lehighion whenever
desirous.
Sunday base ball playing does nol
meet with sufficient approval from the
masses TO warrant its success. Of course
there are those who see no harm, and
really champion the effort-and yet will
roundly denounce the running of trains on
Sunday. Consistency is a Jewel" bnt
lots of good people meyer wear the same.
1t is perfectly safe to obey public senti-
ment in regard to such Sunday amsue-
ments. We do not believe that a sufficient
number of the citizens of any town would
appear at ball game on Sunday, there
fore it should not be INDUCED ina proper
regard for the religious element of any
community should govern.

II suppose you have frequently heard
that Australia is the greatest country in
the world for athletic sports?" said Ned
Hanlan, the oarsman, while talking about
the worlds championship boat race at
Sydney. 'But the facts have not been
exaggerated, 1t is wonderful how the
people turn out to any kind of sport
sculling, horse races, wrestling matches
or anything else. Why, saw as many
as 10000 people at little sprinting
match once. Then, what do you think
of 10000 going to the horse races? For
that was the attendance one year when
the Melbourne cup was run. The Derby
in England isn't comparison so far as
the crowd is concerned. The crowds at
boat races are also phenomenal. The
people in Australia go crazy over all
sorts of sports. louisville Post
