"Castoria is the best remedy for children OF

far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castorid in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

TO KEEP THE PEACE.

Police Arrangements to Prevent Accidents
and Rowdyism.
1t is not likely that there will be any
rowdyism in the park in this jubilee day,
but the police will be there to make sure.
Sharps will be out, as matter of course,
looking for chances to fleece the unwary,
but the detective force will watch for them.
The regular park police force consists OF
eight men, who wear gray uniforms. They
will be mount ed and will patrol the roads,
to prevent fast driving, to stop runaway
horses or teams, and to see that there are no
accidents to pedestrians crossing the drives.
One hundred members of the city police
force will be on duty to look after the gen.
eral order. There will be two police head
quarters, one at the house near the bridge
and the other at the Zoo, where matrons
will be on duty to take care for lost children.
These points have been connected by tele-
phone, and wire runs to the Oakland
police station only few blocks away. The
old s'black maria will be at the grounds,
with two patrol wagons to be used in case
of emergency.

the voice of justice and consanguinity. We
must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity,
which denounces our separation, and hold
them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enc

We, therefore, the representative of the
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN
GENERAL CONGRESS assembled, ap-
pealing to the Supreme Judge of the
World for the rectitude of our intentions,
do, in the name, and by the authority of
the good people of these colonies, solemDly
publish and declare, That these United
Colonies are, and of right ought to be,
FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES; that
they are absolved from all allegiance to
the British crown, and that all political
connection between them and the State OF
Great Britain, is, and ought to be totally
dissolved; and that as, FREE AND INDE-
PENDENT STATES, they have full power
to levy war, conclude peace, contract alli-
ances, establish commerce, and do all other
acts and things which INDEPENDENT
STATES may of right do. And, for the
support OF this declaration, with firm reli-
ance on the protection of DIVINE PROV
IDENCE, we mutually pledge to each
other, our lives, our fortunes, and our
sacred honor.

warned them, from time to time, of at

unwarrantable Jurisdiction over us. We
have reminded them of the circumstances
of our emigration and settlement here. We
have appealed to their native justice and
magnanimity. and we have conjured them,

avow these usurpations, which would in
evitably interrupt our connections and cor

In addition to the arrangements noted
above there will be number of wagons
with comfortable seats, provided for the use
of ladies and children. The wagons will
meet them at the entrance and convey them
to any point in the park they may desire to
reach.
After the morning exercises the four
bands will be separated and placed as fol-

stand, the Select knights at the Zoo. Hays

The street railways will put their best

Every line in the city has ordered out every
available car in its barn. The Pittsburg
Traction Company has received several new
cars for the day. among them some of the
big cars originally used on the Duquesne
line. These cars have been remodeled and
lightened, and they make beautiful car.
The Pittsburg Duquesne lines expect to

THE STARS AND STRIPES.

An Off cial History Of the American Flag
Established by Congress in june. 1777
Its First Salute by a Foreign Naval
vesseI-How the Stars Are Arranged.
WAsHIN GroN, July 3.-The Quartermas-
ter General of the army has been so bothered
with questions regarding the American flag
that he has issued bulletin which is in
tended to meet the numerous and diversi-
fed queries that come to his office from the
patriotic curious. The statements are the
result of research on the part of the clerks
accurate, or, at least, as official The bulle-
tin bears the stirring title, 'The Stars and
Stripes" and is as follows:
The American Congress, in session at
Philadelphia, established by its resolution
of June IA, 1777, a national flag for the
United States of America The resolution
was as follows:
Resolved That the flag of the 13 United
States be 13 stripes, alternate red and white;
that the union be l3 stars, white in Il blue
field, representing new constellation.
Although nearly year previous, July 4,
clared independent, this resolution is the
first legislative action recorded relating to a
national flag forthe new sovereignty.
Origin of the Thirteen Stripes.
The use of 13 stripes was snot new feat
ure, as they had been introduced Gin alter
nate white and blue) on the upper left-hand
corner of standard presented to the Phila-
delphia Light Horse by its captain in the
early part OF 1775, and moreover the Union
flag of the 13 united colonies raised at
Washington's headquarters, at Cambridge,
January 2, 1776, had the 13 stripes just as
they are this day, but it also had the crosses
of St. George and St. Andrew on a blue
ground in the corner. There is no salts
factory evidence, however, that any flag
bearing the union OF the stars had been in
public use before the resolution of June,
1777.
1t is not known to whom the credit of de-
signing the Stars and Stripes is due 1t is
claimed that Mrs. John Ross, an uphol-
sterer who resided on Arch street, Phila-
delphia, was the maker of the first flag
combining the stars and stripes. Her de-
scendants assert that committee of Con-
gress, accompanied by General Washing
ton, who was in Philadelphia in June, 1776
called upon Mrs. Ross and engaged her to
make the flag from a rough drawing, which,
at her suggestion, was redrawn by General
Washington with pencil in her back parlor,
and the flag thus designed was adopted by
Congress. ,
Although the resolution establishing the
flag was not officially promulgated by the
Secretary of Congress until September 8,
1777, it seems well authenticated that the
Stars and Stripes we're carried at the battle
of Brandywine September II, 1777, and

The Document Which Transformed the
British Colonies Into an American
Nation-Text Of the Declaration OF
Independence.
When, in the course of human events, it
becomes necessary for one people to dis
solve the political bands which have con-
nected them with another, and to assume,
among the powers of the earth, the separate
and equal station to which the laws of
nature and of natures God entities them, a
decent respect to the opinions of mankind
REQUIRES that they should declare the causes
which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal; that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain un-
alienable rights; that among these are life,
liberty and the pursuits of happiness That
to secure these rights, governments are in
stltuted among men deriving their Just
powers from the consent of the governed;
that whenever any form of government be-
comes destructful Of these ends, it is the
right of the people to alter or abolish 1t, and
to institute new government, laying its
foundations on such principles, and organ
izing its powers on such form as to them
sudh eeeu moSI likely tO euecC Gnelr salety
and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will
dictate that governments long established
should not be changed for light and
transient causes; and, accordingly, all ex-
perience hath shown that mankind are
more disposed to suffer, while evils are suf-
ferable, than to right themselves by abol-
ishing the forms to which they are accus-
toned. But, when long train of abuses
and usurpations, pursuing invariably the
same object, evinces a design to reduce
them under absolute despotism, it is their
right, it is their duty, to throw off such
government, and to provide new guards for
their future security. Such has been the
patient sufferance of these colonies, and
such is now the necessity which constrains
them to alter their former systems of gov
ernment. The history of the present King
of Great Britain is history Of repeated in
juries and usurpations, all having, in direct
object, the establishment of an absolute
tyranny over these States. To prove this,
let facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his assent to laws the most
wholesome and necessary for the public
good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass
laws of immediate and pressing import
ance, unless suspended in their operations

FOR THE BOYS AND GIRLS.

What There Is for Their Erjol ment in the
Broad Park-Sports for the Youngsters
-Merry-Go-Kounds, Swings, Peanuts
Candy and Plenty of Noise.
The day is especially designed for the
edifcation and pleasure of the little ones,
the children of Pittsburg. The school
children who are to fern the grand chorus
this morning will be carried to the park
from every part of the city. Each one will
wear badge which will be pass on any
street car line. They will pour into the
park by thousands, and will be accompanied
by their parents and older brothers and
sisters. There will be incessant demands
for peanuts and pop. and parental purses
and patience will be strained. Many of the
children, who will not take part in the sing
ing on the platform, will look and listen.
The boys will be pleased with the artillery.
Every time a cannon goes off it scares a boy
almost to death, and that tickles him i'm
mensely.

Sports expressly for the boys will be man.

ert ofthe Seventeenth ward schools, on level
plat of ground Immediately at the left of
the road after crossing the bridge. There
creased pole has been set up, which the
boys will vainly try to climb. There will
be a sack race, a wheelbarrow race a DO
tato race and other frolics for the ''kids %
In the old Snyder orchard there are 40
swings, which are free to the children.
The merry-go-round is handy, but there
nickel must be paid for a ride. A second
one, with bicycles instead of horses and car
riages, has been set up in Panther Hollow,
and the proprietor pays 20 per cent of his
receipts to the celebration fund. A black
faced man will peep through hole in the
canvas in the orchard, and anyone can have
the privilege of throwing basebalis at him
by paving the price. The boys will be per-
mitted to throw peanuts and cakes to the
monkey, but they must not spit in the
clined to do when policeman is not near
Soft Couples and Green Apples
The wooden seats scattered all over the
park in shady places are for spooney young
men and women, aud the urchins will please
keep or The bows may throw stones at the
green apples if they do it with care, but if
they eat the apples they must stand the con-
sequences with fortitude.
For the purchase of peanuts and gim-
cracks in general there are about 200 stands,
and at one booth, not far from the grand
stand, an enterprising clothing house will
give fans to all comers.
Many of the children will be out in car
riages with their rich parents, and they will
enjoy the fine driving along the winding
ways. There will be all sorts of equipages,
from the big coach and four to the farmers
humble buggy drawn by the bay mare.
Fast driving will be prohibited to-day, as
the roads will be greatly crowded.
