PATRIOTIC PHILADRL PHIa,

Philadelphia may be a quiet place, but
1t ia and always has been patriotic, as be-
fits the home of the Liberty Bell and the
place 80 intimately connected in many ways
with the struggle for our national indepen-
dence and the later struggle for the preser-
vation of our national union. This year
she is going to spread herself on Fourth
Of July celebration. The committee of the
City Council appointed to make arrange
ments has decided to have a big
parade, a display of fireworks on
grand scale, and the usual speeches, en-
phasized by the booming of cannon. Citi-
zsns are addressing letters to the commit
tee, making suggestions about the plan of
celebration. One councilman thinks It
would be good idea to have the
''Star Spangled Banner" sung all over the
United States at the same time, Mayor
Stuart of Philadelphia giving the signal
for the grand chorus to begin. At a meet
ing OF the committee the following pro-
gramme of exercises was adopted: Morn
ing-ringing of bells, firing of salute of
guns, reading of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, addresses by citizens; afternoon
parade of military and civic organiza-
tions, regatta on the Schuylkill, gathering
of school children in the Park, singing of
national odss, addresses by prominent
speakers; evening-grand display of fire.
works. The newspapers are to be asked to
open subscription lists to raise sufficient
money for the extra expenses of the cele-
bration. The city will probably appropri-
ate $4,000. 1t has been suggested that a
part of the fund be used to carry the
school children to Fairmount Park, so that
they may ell take part in singing the
national airs.
The plan is a good one. We heartily
believe in Fourth of July celebrations, es-
pecially those in which "the rising genera
ton" take part, and we should like to see
regular ld-fashioned Fourth of July in
New Haven. To be sure, the noise insep-
arabic from such affairs is Objectionable,
but human beings can't celebrate to any
great extent without noise. Fourth of July
noise can be endured on account of the
reasons for it. 1t is great deal better to
have q very noisy Fourth than none at all.
The day and what 1t teaches should never
be neglected

Attention is being more than ever di-
rectsd to the best methods of wood-pulp
production for the manufacture of paper,
and to the most profitable sources of sup
ply present and future. A drawback to
the use of pine is that the wood needs to
be treated chemically before it is ground
into pulp, or before 1t Is placed In the
digestor for the manufacture of either
chemical or sulphite pulp. Spruce is ad-
mittedly most superior as q wood pulp for
white paper. Hemlock cannot be used to
advantage in connection with spruce pulp,
for the reason that its fiber Is more brushy,
having less strength than that of spruce,
and there is also red ooloring matter In
connection with hemlock which 1t is Diff
cult to remove by chemicals. In the first
experiments with wood pulp in this coun-
try, poplar appeared to be the most desir-
able wood, and was most sought after for
the purpose; It produces q soft feeling
pulp and requires less chemicals to bleach
1t than other woodS yet 1t lacks the ele-
ment of strength, and is thus inferior to
spruce.

THE GAZING CASES.

Judge Gable of the City court yesterday
morning overruled the demurrer in the
pool room cases, thus deciding that the old
law against gaming applies to the cases.
His decision makes the situation very in
teresting one. We have been told for the
last year when there was a general demand
that something be done against the pool
rooms that there wasn't law enough. Judge
Gable says there is. He has, OF
course, given the matter careful study.
His decision will be q surprise to many
who have easily accepted the theory that
the old law Is insufficient. 1t indicates
that he thinks for himself and that he Is
intent upon doing his full duty. The
cases will now be tried. and their progress
will be watched with great interest. If
Mr.. Matthewmsn has been as careful and
thorough in collecting evidence as he has
In making his complaints and supporting
them against the first assault upon them
he will have something to offer that will
be impressive.

Horses in spectacIes.


Horses, 1t appears, are taking kindly to
spectacles. The opsician, which has made
epecisl investigation into the subject, gives
the case of . shortsighted horse whose own
er had ordered pair of spectscles. They
were made to fasten firmly into the head
stall, SO that they could not be shaken out
of place At first the animal appeared
startled by this addition to his harness, but
he soon got used to his glasses and liked
them 30 much that when he was turned out
to pasture he felt uneasy and uncomforta-
bic without his goggles, and one Sunday
hung around the barn and whinnied 30
plsintively that the owner put the head
stall and goggles on him. and the horse
was 80 glad that he rubbed the mans
shoulder with his nose as the only method
of returning thanks. Dogs who suffer from
shortsightedness have also been provided
with spectacles, and have been sbis there
by to recognize their canine seQusintAnoes

FASHION NOTES.


There are many current styles and cuts
of little capes which are unlike anything
seen before. One model is such a pstchy
affair that one might almost suspect that
the maker fell short of lace. 1t isn't
long enough at the edge and little sat.
In gsrniture appears which might well be
supposed to have gone on to hide lack
of connections at the top But q glance
at the girl who wears the confection drives
away all such notions, and you know that
the cape Is imported and that 1t is costly
and therefore must be all right Another
cape is merely q pair of revers set very
full on pointed yoke, the yoke itself be-
ing very long on the shoulders, go that the
top rever is almost off at the shoulders.

it was discharged.
The woman finished her trapeze perform

dication that she was ready for the final
act. There was a rumbling sound in the
wings, and then a cannon was run on to
the stage with the muzZle pointed directly
up the center aisle.
and his men began to show signs of I'M
easiness. They shifted about in their seats
nervously. Two men lifted the cannon and
left 1t dangling from the woman's jaws.
The muzzle of the weapon swung on a
level with the Indians headdress.
Sitting Bull and his warriors by this time
had become extremely nervous They
looked at each other inquiringly If they
suspected that they had been drawn into
a trap and were to be deliberately slaugh-

no means an unpleasant sight The seeds

One has no idea of the number of vari-
cites of well-known vegetables or flowers
until one see them side by side in the
nurseries of a trial farm. AS seen so

most people suppose. and the corn and

The most of these are necessarily hardy

Heatstroke, or sunstroke, as IL is popu-

nighttime-in a word, whenever human be-
ings are crowded together without suf-'

perature Of the air is an important factor
IN this accident, while the rays of the sun
are not all necessary for its production.
