INDEPENDENCE DAY.

Sound the hew-gagl Play the pattle-tongl
Let the jawbone jinglel
For this Is the Fourth of July.
No crumbling dynasties shall hush our noise,
No stern policeman fright our bully boys.
This Is the day to make the welkin shake,
As our forefathers made their tyrants quake.
Go toI Shall not all earthly things this day
Be clashed together loudly in such way
Shall prove that patriot hearts now beat in
bangs2
Let orators by millions praise the day!
And while they yell let mighty trumpets brayl
Reverberating thunder split the sky,
And lightnings blaze to lick the ocean dryl
Set fire to everything, and bang around
Burn up the poles, like two great cracker
strings,
And fill Symmes' Hole with dynamite and
things.
Anticipate the awful crack of doom
With all the mightiest cannons' cacophonous
boom;
Then swell the noise with shouts; yell, split
your throats:
Add even comets and the base drums MOTEL
Sound the hew-gag! Play the pattle-tongl
Let the jawbone jingle!
For this is the Fourth of July.

"JAKE'S" BANNER .FOURTHS.

The Adventures of Lad Who Desired
oTsnjoy the Day.
He is the Hon. Jacob now, dignified
and able senator, but back in the tifties
he was simply Jake to all except his
grandmother, the pastor who christened
him, and the teacher when school was
in. His first Fourth of July, according
to the recollection of contemporaries, was
celebrated in a little New England settle
ment composed of farmers and miners.
The old folks were slow, but not so the
young ones, and in 1856, there being no
general celebration on the docket, the
boys of Oreville voted to have one of
their own. Jake was in his eighth
year, and though not formally on the
committee, he was around during the
councils, and by timely word named
the location for the "doings."
1t was a rocky hilltop on his fathers
land, about 300 feet above level, the

The king lost no time in taking aim
with his eight foot saber of block tin to
behead the rascal who dared insult two
majesties at a word, and Jake turned
heel and dived off the other side of the
bridge into the canal to escape that ter
rible cimeter. He came up smiling, as
good diver would, but with his feather
headdress and train soaked and droop-
ing, and his cheap war paint making
streaks down his stained muslin hunting
shirt and leggins. At the fantastic ball
which wound up the occasion there was
no Red Brother on hand, for all the
ROSTERS of the community had parted
with their tails to supply the first outfit,
and these would have to grow out again
before another real live Indian could be
constructed. GEORGE L. KILMER.

you? Don't you, Nellie, dear?"
Now | happen to know that Nellie at
this moment was proud of Henry's
love; she loved him herself as best she
could in her own way; she was happy
and triumphant at once; yet, for reasons
past my ken, she made this reply:
eff you stand there another minute
you'll get your feet wet"

vicinity. Jake felt his responsibility,
young as he was, and worked like a
beaver to make the affair success. The
village figured in history as a place
where Washington had had cannon
made, and cannonading outfit was early
attended to. Three small pieces were
borrowed from among the relics treas
ured in the neighborhood and dragged
up the steep hill. A fagpole was
raised, and bough booths for shelter and
refreshments invited the populace to
come and make merry. Everything
was complete.
Stores of fireworks, of powder, of sugar
and lemons, and cakes and candies were
on hand, hidden in walled up caves, and
the boys of Oreville sat up all night to
welcome the inhabitants that would be
summoned by sunrise salute. The sa-

In the good old times men lived I'M
der the hOrrid shadows of frightful super
stitions. Now it is to modern science only
that we owe our emancipation from the
yoke OF this awful tyranny Scientific ex-
plorers have been over the earth and, find
ing no mouth of hell, that is gone. Science
has explained earthquakes and volcanoes,
and now devils fight no longer in the bow
els of the earth. 1tna and Nesuyius are
no longer ventholes OF the pit. Astronomy
has shattered the follies of astrolOgy, and
people have found out that the stars are
minding their own business instead of
meddling with theirs, and eclipses, no
longer moon swallowing monsters, are
only very natural aud well behaved shad-
ows.
Since psychology is studied we know
that witchcraft is folly, and insanity is
only disease to be treated and cured.
Thus science, like IA mother going up stairs
TO bed with her frightened boy has been
with her candle into all the old dark cor
ners that used to make us creep aud cringe
and shiver with terror. Croakers always
have had a special faculty for seeing
'breakers ahead and smooth water be-
hind. But the sober facts Of history justify
the statement that never was the ship OF
human hope IN stancher trim, and never
was fairer, broader sea ahead.
What then' Why, this: In spite of pres
ent ills and difficulties and corruptions
and discouragements, learn to see things
as they are. How many curse has this
servile, unreasoning worship Of the past
fastened upon MS, As if an evil that has
stood thousand years was not as abomi-
nable as one sprung up today We ought
indeed in church, society and state TO rev.
erence the past as father of the present,
but not so blindly rs to keep errors and
fallacious systems simply because our an
cestors endured them.-Minot J. Savage in
