CLOSED WITH A cOMMERS
Drinking Festival ut sanger Haii-Pictures
Taken-Other Incidents.

When the lurid glare that liz the heavens
from tho many fireworks had died away
the initial German-day OF Richmond had
almost become thing Of the past.
Just one other feature Of the programme
followed and this closed the happy day filed
with pleasant memories IN most pleasant
manner.
This was the "commers," which il a
German drinking festival where wit and
reDdrtee sparkle over the wines and hight
viands that are served.
The commers" took place al Sanger
Hall. and though last. was notleast among
the pleasures Of the occasion.
SEVERAL MAKE SPEECHES.
Bright, happy little speeches were made
by Mr.. Roseneek. Mayor Ellyson, Mr.. Her.
mann Schmidt, and others, and the time
was spent most pleasantly.

About o'clock in the afternoon Presi-

had a group-picture OF themselves taken

Hall
At the corner Of Third and Broad streets
last night Mr. L. Fellheimer sent up an
Immense hot-air balloon forty feet In
height just as the torchiight procession
passed. II was admired by thousauds.
One Of the prettiest incidents Of the day
occurred ut the conclusion OF Senator
Loyensteins address. when his little
grandson, q faxen-haired child. ran up 10
his grandfather on the platform and hug
ged and kissed him. The people eheered
the little fellow.

cacies, Hospitality Served.
After the speeches were all over and a
general hand-shoking had been engaged in
the Reception Committee were requested
TO take charge of the invited guests and
escort them to the old main building.
Here a substantial repast had been pre-
pared and was served under the direction
of the committee. Eatables of every kind,
with LIQUID refreshments, were served in
profusion. The tables did not groan but
some of the partakers may have done 80
afterwards.
Among the good things provided might
be mentioned picked oysters, chicken
salad. potato salad. roast shoat, tongue.
pickles, celery, and other accompaniments
to u solid meal.
The drinking department was not neg
elected. and punches of various kinds and
the German national beyeIage-beer-were
freely quaifed.
The room was handsomely decorated
with American and German colors.
There was nothing formal about this por-
ton of the programme, which fact made
It much more enjoyable for the three hum
dred or more guests who were fortunate
enough TO be the favored ones.
Among those who stood around the
merry festive board We're Governor Nc

THE MAYOR REVIEWS THIN.
BURNING OF THE TORCHES.
Grand Pyroteohnic Display at the Corner
of Eighth and Broad.


At the corner Of Eighth and Broad
streets was witnessed the elimination Of
the scenic effects Of the dav and the climax
of enthusiasm. There the torchlight pro-
cesslon was halted fordismissal, but before
that order was given immense honhres
were made of the torches and most mag
nificent pyrotechnic display took place.
The sidewalks for several blocks were
packed with q surging throng Of people
of all classes, and the heavens were IN up
with blaze of light.
THE HEAVENS LIT Up.
Thousands of rockets and R0man-candle
balls were in the air at one time, and ~
they assembled in graceful curves from
either side Of the street thor trails of FIRE
crossed and interlaced so n TO
form in brilliant and delicate tracery
an open-wOrk arcade of yari-colOred
luminous lines. Beneath this were massed
the participants in the procession, their
uniforms, banners. and badges rejecting
the glare from bOnires and red-lights. and
at a signal, and with band accompani-
ment, burst from hundreds Of thrOats the
thrilling notes of THE Watch on the
Rhine,n song that 10 the Germansls what
the bag-pipes are TO the Scotch-a song that
arouses all the Tueton's love Tor the
Fatherland, awakens most patriotic memo
ries, and has nerved the German military
hosts 10 many desperate deed of yaior.
SUNG By THOUSANDS.
"voice after voice caught 10 tho strain"
and many who had not a drop Of German
blood IN their veins and knew not a word
of German, but 20 whom the air was
familiar. were carried away BY the enthu-
siasm Of the occasion. and helped by hum
ming the air TO swell the volume OF
melody.
As the last notes of the German national
song died away the band started The
Star-Spangled Banner" and though this
concluded the street demonstration so far
as indicated in the programme. the exhibi-
ton of fireworks continued several hours
longer.

At the time when Texas still belonged
10 Mexico we find German colonies there.
In 1925 they founded q settlement or the
Colorado river, which was the most ex-
posed post of white settlers, and they
suffered very much from the Indians. New
Brumfels is another German settlement,
founded in 1874, and the German language
is mostly used there to this day.

In 1885 Johannes Tanner settled with
his family about twenty miles below
where Cincinnati now stands. His two
sons were stolen by the Indians. He was
a bunker. and some other Dunkers from
Pennsylvania followed him and settled
there. The news of the fertile lands
they had found soon induced other emil
grants to follow, and thus many Germans
found their way into that State. In 1905
a colony from Virginia settled where the
city of Covington is now situated.

have been unable to get correct esti-
mate of the Germans in this country at
the present date. but from the best in
formation at hand | find that from 1920
to 1880 there have arrived in this
country fifteen millions of immigrants, of
whom about four millions were Germans;
that by the census of 1880 there were in
this country one million nine hundred
thousand native-born Germans, and
taking the increase in the last ten years,
| should estimate the present population,
including their immediate descendants, at
about seven millions. What their intiu-
ence on the wealth, the development, and
progress of this country is it is impossi-
bic to estimate. 1t, however. forms

vorabIy to the house last week. Some
doubt was expressed as to the constl-

with matter entrusted to the mails, and
the bill was referred to subcommittee.
consisting of Senators Sawyer, Mitchell

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 4.-The
"original package" decision of the su-

tickets from Louisiana are received
here almost daily by several agents. and

to Interfere, except when they detect
agents in offering them for sale, and
this they think they cannot do when
the tickets are sold in original pack
ages,
