ABOUT FIREWORKS.

New and Interesting Devices to Enliven
Americas Greatest Holiday,
The demand for fire works, it is said, has
never been so great as it is this year Not
only is the assortment of fireworks larger
than heretofore, tut many new and Start
ling varieties have been made to delight
the patriotism which seeks expression in
cele brating the anniversary of our inde-
pendence in this time-honored manner
Almost everything conceivable is now OBJ
tainable, and the prices are considerably
less than in former years.
Among many pieces quite novel in bril-
liancy ar effect may be mentioned the
Chinese Mandsrins, not heretofore used
outside of China; Floral Bombshells,
which, after displaying a series Of colored
stars, ignite q shell, which they shoot $50
feet to burst into bouquet of colored stars
so feet in diameter; Mammoth Six-star
Fountains, discharging immense variegated
stars, which change to serpents, exploding
salutes and bouquets of colored fire; Re-
volving Comet Rockets, japanese Night
Bombshells, Balloon Rockets, Triple
Bouquet Rockets, etc.
Even among the lower priced fireworks
novelties abound, and a great variety of
beautiful effects may be had at remarkably
little expense, almost all the old fsvorites
having some new combination to surprise
and delight the eye.

THOUSANDS WILL ATTEND
The Great Musical Festival at Lakeside
on August 18th,

The Great Musical Festival at Lakeside
on August 18th.
When the musical festival at Lakeside
was arranged for August 10, last, the com.
mittee At first hesitated about putting the
affair on grand scale, fearing that the
public might not appreciate their efforts
and financial loss might result. But as
the date drew near they put addition a.
money into the venture on the strength Of
interest manifested by the people in this
and adjoining counties as soon as it wa
properly advertised and the result was that
those who attended the festival had one Of
the greatest musical treats ever offered in
this county.
So great was the success the committee
re-organized Immediately after the festival
for the summer of 1892 and fixed August
10th, as the day for the second jubilee.
The arrangements for this year are far
more elaborate and expensive than those of
last year. The value of prizes have been
increased from total of 5000 to $500 and
three times as many medals, batons and
other emblems will be awarded the victors
under the conditions of the contests.
The interest manifested in the festival
this year is also far greater than last. The
secretary is daily receiving requests for
programmes from all parts of this state
and many other states. Yesterday letter
was received from Thomas w. Davies, of
Blocton, Alabama requesting number OF
programmes fn1 distribution and requesting
the name of the adjudicator.
The singing contests promise 20 be
spirited. Prof. Williom Waters has or
ganized choir, Mahanoy City has had
two pIscticing for several weeks, C9ntralia
has another in training, and Shamokin
people have written for programmes and
say they will be on deck with some of the
best singers in the anthracite region who

will exert every effort to capture the big
prize. Hazleton will not reach for the big

The fact that the committee has engaged

tor for the day, and Rev, Fred. Evans, also
Of Philadelphia, as conductor, has given
the festival a strong prestige. Every letter
the secretary receives contains favorable
mention of the gentlemen. Prof Clark
was one of the adjudicators at the recent
grand eisteddfod at Scranton when a pr e
of $500 was given to the first choir. He
enjoys the confidence of the musical people
and fair and just adjudications may be
looked for at his hands. Rev. Fred.
Evans is no stranger in these parts. He has
been in this and neighboring towns fire.
auently as conductor of eisteddfods and
was the conductor of the eisteddiod held
here last Christmas under the auspices of
| the Ivorites.
| AS to the place where the festival is to
be held it is so well known and has become
so popular that only the recent and pend
ing improvements of the place need be
spoken of. The trotting park, in which
the festival will be held, is now in excellent
condition and completely surrounded by 8
substantial fence. The management will
have far better arrangements than las
year. A platform large enough to accom-
modate $50 people will be erected in from
of the grand stand and will be raised
suitable for the occasion. When not il
attendance at the festival the visitors will
find pleasure in the adjoining grove. Or
these parts of the grounds the company
has put up magnificent csrousal at u cos
of So, 600 in which adults as we'll as chill
dren will find a fountain of pleasure.
Many improvements have also beel
made about the lake section of the parl
and an ample supply of bosts will be ol
hand for those who may wish to enjoy
row on the water before and after tn
festival.
) The immense dancing pavilion ereete
last year will also be in condition to accom-
! modate the thousands of visitors. A frs
class restaurant has been attached to it an
= all will be abundantly supplied with re
freshments at reasonable prices.
Realizing the popular growth of th
place the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
road Company has put large gang c
carpenters AT work replacing the old depC
with mammoth depot and twin platform
The platform will be of V shape so ths
it will run close to the tracks Of the mai
y line and the Catswissa branch. 1t will b
: a splendid structure and in keeping wit
, the other park improvements The fran
work is already completed and the dopc
will probably be thrown open to the publ
within two weeks.
