PHILADELPHIA, June 14.-For the
first time in American history there
was a general celebration here to-
day of the anniversary of the adop-
ton by Congress, June IA, 1777, Of
the stars and stripes. The historic
dwelling, 239 Arch street, where
Betsy Ross made the first Gag, was
handsomely decorated with flags
and bunting. Members of the
Colonial Danes, with whom the
idea of a commemorative of the
day originated, distributed 5000
flags to the school children this
afternoon at the aforementioned
house. The children then march
ed to Independence square where
patriotic songs were sung and ap-
propriate addresses made. In every
school in Philadelphia this morn
ing the story of how the first flag
was made was told, and the "Star
Spangled Banner" and other ma
tional anthems were sung. Build
ings on the principal streets of the
city were literally decorated.

DEATH TO ERYSIPELLS
FRED DOUGLASS AROUSED.
The COlored Orator Rebukes an Attaol

The COlored Orator Rebules an Attack
on His Race.
CHICAGO, Aug. 1O-Old Fred Douglass,
the colored orator, was greatly wrought
up yesterday in the suffrage congress by
Stephen b. Weeks, professor of Trinity
college, N. c., who read paper on negro
suffrage in the south. The professor saidi
"Negro suffrage is failure. 1t must re-
main failure so long as it is not an ally
of the white vote. A large percentage Of
the southern people are of English descent.
They will not submit to domination. The
white man must rule and he will rule. He
seeks to secure this result by fair means
He has respect for law, and for that reason
seeks to rule under the law. When he
cannot do that he bulldozes and counts
out. No man who has not lived in a negro
land knows what negro denomination is.
1t means the destruction of property, ruin
and bankruptcy"
Douglass, who was on the platform,
arose and made an impassioned reply.
"You are not afraid of negro domination"
he said, shaking his cane at the professor.
1.-The negro can never rule this country.
He would be outvoted by the sixty mill
ions of whites and overwhelmed by your
superior intelligence. There is no oppo-
sition to the negro in the south until he as
pires to rise. So long as he is signorant and
lazy no one disturbs him. If he aspires to
become a lawyer or a doctor he at once
becomes an upstart."
Professor weeks made no reDly.

SHANN MURDER CASE.
Interest in the Great Trial Re-
mains Unabated.
THE MUT1LAT1oN OF THE BODY,

Evidence to Show That Men Came In the
Middle Of the Night To Remove the
Dead Mans stopaoh-The Testimony
of DIR. Bergen.
TRENTON, Aug Notwithstanding the
oppressive heat, the Sham murder trial
drew another big throng of spectators to
the county court house yesterday. Mrs.
Sham was again surrounded by her chill
dren, married and single, and she sat
much of the time with her black fan be
fore her face Her cousin, J. Watson
Sham, the undertaken who had charge of
the body Of the deceased, under cross-eX-
animation testified that, after his death,
the youth weighed less than eighty pounds,
although he was over six feet tall.
DIR. Ellison II. Bergen testified that
young Sham had kidney disease and also
serious stomach trouble. The latter pre-
vented him from retaining food, and he
grew so weak in the course of a fewweeks
that his pulse became almost impercepti-
BILE. He vomited blood and mucus almost
constantly, and he died practically from
inanition. DIR. Bergen read copies of all
the prescriptions which he gave deceased.
DR.. Bergen testified that he prescribed
corrosive sublimate tablets twice. They
are bichloride Of mercury and poison.
They are used for disinfecting purposes,
and he explained to Mrs Shann what they
were for He made it plain that they were
poisonous, and the label showed that too.
John died on Tuesday, and on Thursday
morning the doctor received word from
Mrs. Sham about the three men disem-
boweling him. Mrs Sham told him that
the men came to the house between and 3
o'clock in the morning. The witness ex-
amined Sham for life insurance last fall
and passed him as sound.
William Beatty, who boarded with the
Shann's when John died, testified that he
heard no noises of any kind in the house
during the night that 1t is said the dead
mans body was violated. Samuel Ashley
was another boarder who testified that he
heard no noise of any kind in the house
that night.
Howard NJ Cough of Port Richmond,
S. l., a life insurance Inspector Of the Man
haitian company, testified that when he
first visited the Sham home after Johns
death his mother refused to allow him to
see the remains after the mutilation Of the
body. However, when he went again with
County Physician Cantwell and Coroner
Coulter he was permitted to view it. There
was large wound in the abdomen, and
the viscera was missing.
Frank G. Borden, another life insurance
agent, acknowledged that he gave Mrs.
Sham a tip that his company intended to
investigate Jol MS death. Mrs. Eliza
Blaine, an aged lady living in New Bruins
wick, testified that she was at the Sham
home the night ohn's body was mutilated.
She slept in the front parlor with one of
Mrs. Shann's daughters, and heard nosies
during the night as though some men
were walking on the stairs.

ACCIDENTAL DEATHS.
Caused by CareIessness.

The majority of people die sooner than
they should. Evidence of this fact is grow
ing daily. Waring says; "Disease is not
consequence of life; it is due to unnatural
conditions of living-neglect, abuse, want"
DIR. Stephen Smith, ON the same subject,
Man is born to health and long life; dis
ease is unnatural, death, except from old
age, is accidental, and both are preventable
by human agencies" This is almost invari-
ably true of death resulting from heart dis
ease. Careless Over-exertion, Incorporate
use of tea, coffee, tobacco, alcoholic or other
stimulants are generally the causes of this
difficulty, and indifference to its progress re-
suits in sudden death, or long sickness end
ing in death. By the newspapers it can be
seen that many prominent and hundreds OF
persons in private life die from heart dis
ease every day.
If you have any Of the following symp-
toms; shortness of breath, palpitation, irreg-
uar pulse, fainting and smothering spells,
pain in shoulder, side, or arm, swollen
ankles, etc, begin treatment Immediately for
heart disease. hyou delay, the consequences
may be serious.
For over 20 years DIR. Franklin Miles,
the eminent specialist, has made profound
study of heart disease, its causes and cure,
and many Of the leading discoveries in that
direction are due to him. His New Heart
Cure is absolutely the only reliable remedy
for the cure of heart disease, as is proved
by thousands of testimonials from grateful
persons who have used it.
James A Pain, editor of the Cory, Pa Leader,
states: After an apparent recovery from three
months Of la grippe, fell on the street uncon-
scous from heart disease In one month from
that time was unable to walk across my room,
and my pulse beat nom 50 TO Jig times minute
| then used DR.. Miles New Heart Cure and at
once became stronger. After using six bottles
was able to work as usual and walk a mile every
day, my pulse ranging from 6S to 50. Dr, Miles
remedy Is not only preventive but a cure"
