Fairhaven herald. [volume] (Fairhaven, Wash.) 1890-????, 1892-07-02

A flag is within the compass Of the
poorest, and with little taste and skill
gives scope to the desire for display OF
the richest. 1t is unquestionable that
the most impressive forms Of decoration
and display are Of this sort--uniform in
character, yet infinitely varied in appli-
cation. A city flaming in every part
with the bright emblem Of national
power is spectacle at once significant
and impressive This would naturally
lead to the more ornate and striking
decoration Of the grounds and resi-
dences of the more wealthy. Such dis
PLAYS should not be reserved for politi-
cal campaigns, but should be more uni
versal and imposing on this day than
any other. The Fourth of July should
be one wave Of rosy light from the At
lantic TO the Pacilie. -Judge Tourgee IN

TWAS A GAME FoR TWO.
A Funny Practical Joke of the Reversi-
BILE Order.


A Funny Practical Joke of the Reversi-
BILE Order.
There is undoubtedly more practical
Joking ON the Fourth of July than ON the
list of April, and whatever may be the
opinion regarding practical jokes in the
abstract, few there be that having ar
rived at the age of discretion will not
agree that the typical Fourth of July
practical Joke is rarely humorous, es-
pecially from the victims point of view.
There is a young man in Chicago who
may be called Smith, to whom the idea
of practical joke-or some other fellow
lis excruciatingly funny, or rather was
so until late hour last night. There is
reason to believe that he has undergone
a change of opinion on the subject.
A few days before the Fourth the
young man conceived a brilliant idea.
He bought mammoth cannon cracker,
over foot long and several inches in
diameter. Then he carefully removed
the fuse and the charge, tunneling the
gunpowder out and scorching the hole
with a red hot wire until the Last vestige
Of the explosive was removed. The big
cannon cracker was then perfectly harm
less.
He started out early yesterday morn
| ing with his big, harmless cracker and
five cent bunch of little ones. He in
serted one of the little ones in the top
end of the cannon cracker and dropped
| into the first saloon, calmly set the big
cracker ON the Lar and set fire to the fuse.
The bartender crouched behind the
bar, frightened nearly out Of his wits.
Sizz! went the fuse and the other Gus
toners glanced at the big cracker and
then scrambled all over each other II
their haste to get out of the way before
the explosion came.
It came-a puny little pop-and the
big cracker turned listlessly over on it
side.
The bartender peeped out timidly
with sickly grin, and finally recovered
his courage when the joker put tn
cracker in his coat pocket. Then every
body took something at the bartender
invitation.
Strange to say the young man witt
the cannon cracker successfully playe'
his little joke all day long, from plac
to place, with the usual accompaniment
of treats by the bartender. But ever
lane has an end, and every practice
Joker meets another sooner or later.
Some one who saw him play his littl
trick went straightway and bought al
other cannon cracker the same size q
Smiths. But he didn't remove the LOAF
He followed Smith.
The opportunity soon came to replac
the bogus cracker with the real one.
