THE DAY WE cELEBRArE.

And Some of the Celebration Was
Not SPort-One Fatal Accident-Toy
Pistols and Cannon do the Rest.
What beautiful day the glorious
Fourth did prove to be in spite of the
threatening outlook of the night before,
and how many thousands in this vicinity
derived much benefit and pleasure from
the national holiday But the day brought
sorrow and pain to some, as well as enjoy
ment.
The most terrible one of all was the &C.
cidental death Of Eddie Hatfield, the ten
year old step-son of John Tompkins,
colored man living at 191 COTE street.
The affair happened near the corner of
COTE and Orchard streets. The boy was
walking along when bullet struck him in
the left breast, killing him almost in
stantly.
Coroner Mix began his investigation
soon after, which resulted in his ordering
the arrest of Allen Drew, a man of good
character, employed by Jeffcott & Co.,
Broadway, and who lives at No. 1913
Orchard street. He was arrested on the
charge of granddaughter. Drew was allow
ed to go the police Office, and he volun-
tarily gave himself up. Drew had been
out in his yard shooting with 80 caibre
English bulldog revolver at the time of
the accident. The bullet taken from the
boys body was of the same size, and Drew
in his firing aimed in che direction of the
place where the boy fell.
He was released later in the day on 81 900
bonds, to appear before the city court this
morning, as the investigation led to the
belief that the shooting was an accident.
His bondsman was Charles M. Veeters the
builder. He was Mortified over the boys
death, and his wife was almost frantic on
hearing what happened
The penalty fixed by statute for killing
due to criminal carelessness is not more
than 81 900 or more than ten years in
state prison, or both.
SOME OF THE OTHER MINOR ACCIDENTS.
Deputy Collector. of Internal Revenue
Charles W. Pickett lost the second toe of
his right foot. His rifle was accidentally
discharged while he was out hunting
| woodchucks in Litchfeld county. He
| came to this city and his wound was at
tended to here by DR.. Whittemore.
John L. Alling, youth of sixty
years" living at 90 Portsea street, went out
with some other boys the night before the
Fourth and a premature explosion of a
| der. It is feared he will lose the sight of
| both eyes.
James Reynolds, sixteen years old, living
at 43 York street, had the palm of his hand
blown out.
James Boyce, the ten-year-old son of
James Boyce of so Coils street, was badly
| injured about the face and eyes; cause, toy
| cannon.
William Goering, thirteen-year-old
| resident of Henry street, was shot with
| toy pistol in the head by a colored boy.
| Fred Taylor, porter at Apothecaries
Hall, after putting up numberless pack
ages of colored fire, rushed to his home on
Foote street and astonished the whole
ward by cannon firing from his pet can
non, and crowds collected. Finally one
charge obstinately refused to go off.
Fred's face has since been under the care
of his brother surgeons.
There were other accidents throughout
the day of burned fingers, etc., to keep the
/ doctors busy.

PATRIOTIC WORDS

At the First M. e. Church by Rev.
Dr.. Chapman-America' Grandeur
- Its Future Gods Prudential
Lending Hand.
At the First Methodist church last even
ing the pastor, the Rev. Melville B. Chap
man, preached patriotic sermon, taking
as his text psalm 1877, 5: eff forget thee,
O, Jerusalem, let my right hand forget it's
cunning"
"Such," said DR.. Champan, twas the
patriotism that burned in the heart of the
country of his love. Patriotism and piety
were indistinguishable in the Hebrew
thought. It was in Palestine, under the
leadership of Moses, Joshua and Solomon,
that the wave of civilization of which we
now feel the influence, began it's journey
westward"
'This country is now the scene of a
grand struggle for the victory of the
good. For 5000 years America was hid
den under the horizon waiting for the up
rising Of liberty. We say that in 1899
Columbus discovered America. We had
better say that in 1892 God disclosed
survived many crises, and in all we can
&SSS6NNAo
of God. We seem now to
have reached an era of peace. I do not
see any great probleming in the future.
Some are doubtless coming, but they are
minor.
''The thirteen original states have null
tiplied until yesterday forty-four states
flashed out upon our nations flag. But
who can tell what our future is to bea
When America is one half as densely pop
ulated as the European countries we shall
have population of fifteen hundred mil
lions and we can feed and clothe them
better than thay are in Europe to-day.
Looking upon these immense possibilities
we begin to zee the providential purpose
of God.
There are some who cry for the diffusion
of liberty, property and intelligence for the
betterment of our country. These things
are good if worthily used, but if not they
will end in national suicide. We must
diffuse something more than this. There
must also be diffusion of consciousness
and of Christianity''

Russian Naval Evo1ution.

LONDON, Sept. S.-A st. Petersburg
dispatch says that the Russian naval
meneuvers will be unusually interesting
this year. The plan of operations is
based on the consummation of block
ade of the Gulf of Finland by an enemy's
squadron. lis supposed that hostile
fleet has already made itself master of
the Baltic, and is engaged in the double
task of blockading the Gulf of Finland
from Cronstadt and damaging the COM
merce of the neighboring ports by cap
turing the coasting vessels. The Russian
feet finds itself compelled to defend the
chief Finnish ports and is directed with
view to that object. The Russian
ships will be distributed among the is
lands of the Finnish archipelago.
