platform he was greeted with rousing
cheer. He spoke i'm stentorian tones, with
considerable emphasis and gesticulation,
and succeeded in getting his sentiment to
the hearing of the great majority Of those
before and about him.
Brief and to the point, the address was
frequently interrupted with applause, and
it increased tenfold as the vice president
retired
Then S. G. Pratt, of New York, came to
the edge of the platform, and at a wave of
the baton the chorus rose and commenced
the opening stanzas of Columbia the Gem
of the Ocean BY the time that the
chorus was reached the audience was wild
with enthusiasm, and it joined in the re
fran with vim and vigor, tens of thousands
of arms waving the stars and stripes over
head. 1t was a stirring spectacle, but it
was to be intensified later on. When the
singing had ceased il was the turn Of
Mayor Carter Harrison to speak in behalf
of the Worlds fnir city.
At the close of q brief address the Mayor
stepping toward the table picked up a
small bunch of red and white carnations
and waving them in the face of the multi
tude he exclaimed: Here are flowers

flowers and picking up n sword with a
magnificent gilded scabbard he continued,
with increased dramatic effect as he waved
it round his head; "Here is the sword of

CHICAGO, July 5-All Chicago, and es-
pecially the fair was ablaze with pa
triotism yesterday. 1t was the center
from which the patriotic pulse of liberty
loving people, enjoying the manifold bless
hgs of a land of the free and home Of
the brave, beat through the nation. There
were many in the White City yesterday
whose minds went back to that glorious
Fourth of July of the Centennial year in
the Quaker City, when, commencing with
the tolling of the midnight hour, the patri-
otic impulses of a pOpulace ran riot; when,
for more than half n day men and women,
old and young, native and alien, marched
almost without a break up Chestnut street
and saluted with barred heads and ringing
shouts the old landmark of liberty in In
dependence square; when Sherman, Sher-
idan and Dom Pedro, all now numbered
with those that have gone, stood arm in
arm before the old Liberty Bell and
bowed their heads in reverence and honor.
Chicago's 100000 of permanent popula-
tion kept the holiday uproariously, and
100000 strangers from outside points, far
and near, helped to celebrate. All over
the city, in the suburban residence dis
tricts as well as in the commercial center,
the usual stiffness Of the night was broken
by the cracking and booming of fireworks
and the shouts of merry makers who were
making night of it, so that the World Is
fair Fourth might be appropriately ushered
in with the true American spirit. Day
broke TO the accompaniment of a salute of
a hundred guns from the gunboats in the
lake and the reverberations of the cannon
awoke the sleepers and gave them notice
that it was time to be up and moving.
The procession southwark to jackson park
began as early as o'clock, and all modes
of transportation fodnd their facilities
taxed as never before.
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1893-07-05

The procession moved slowly for the
boulevard. From curb to curb was packed
with vehicles OF all descriptions carrying
their owners and guests toward the park
and it was nearly IL o'clock when it
reached the Fifty-seventh street entrance
Here a remarkable reception awaited it,
Inside the gate lining the roadway, six
deep in military order, 90 600 exposition eX-
hibitors of all nations were drawn up.
Every man carried an American flag, and
as the procession uncovered and passed
thrOu IA the ranks the exhibitors uncov-
cred and waved their flags, while the
bands broke forth in unison with the Star
Spangler Banner" When the mayors
carriage had reached the head of the col
umn the exhibitors joined the ranks and
the combined procession moved through
the grounds, bringing up in the immense
plaza between the Administration build
ing and the terminal station.
When Director General Davis, accom-
panied by Vice President Stevenson and
the other dignitaries appeared on the
grand stand in front of the Terminal
building 100000 people united in an out
burst of applause. Below the platform
were the members of the Columbian cho-
rus, men and women-1, 800 of them, each
Wlbu ulB ndE Nhhl lhNNL oll was W Bh
waved in triumph to signalize the touch
OF the electric button that was to dedicate
the new Liberty Bell a thousand miles
eastward across the continent.
While the guests were being seated on
the platform renewed enthusiasm was
created by the appearance of the venerable
but sprightly woman from Martha's Vine
ymd Mass, Mrs Stafford, who carried in
i caiuboard box her precious possession,
the first American flag. She was given a
seat underneath the small fiagpole erected
for the purpose of receiving the flag, which
was fastened to the line ready for the
hoisting by Mrs, Staffords infrm hand at
the stroke of IL o'clock. When the last of
the GUESTS had been seated Director Gen
eral Davis brought his gavel down on the
table and called the multitude to order,
Rev. DR.. John Henry Barrows had been
announced to deliver the opening prayer,
but he was absent and in his place Rev
DIR. Garfield, of the Universalist church,
was introduced.
All joined in the fllial prayer "Our
Father which art in Heaven" in low but
distinct tones, which could be heard over
the multitude like the murmur of the sea.

When the numerous gates of the big en-
closure were opened at O'Clock the ticket
men at each found crowd waiting them,
and thenceforward there was ceaseless
click as the turnstiles revolved and the
mass of humanity pressed inward. The
grounds themselves had taken on some of
the glory of Solomon.
Thousands of people who originally in
tended to enter the fair grounds by the
Stony Island avenue gates were so en-
tranced by the unparalleled sight which
met their eyes on reaching Midway Plais-
sance entrance that they at once joined in
the patriotic pleasure seeking procession
which for hours filed the broad Plaisance
from side to side. Across the Plaisance
from Cottage Grove avenue to the Stony
Island avenue viaduct, which forms the
east entrance inside the grounds, were
strung at intervals of few yards the pret-
tiest arrangement of baunerets and Chi
nese lanterns that the eye of man ever be-
held. On each side of the Plaisance,
throughout its whole length, were also
dancing, futtering lines of the same het-
erogeneous colored mass connecting with
the cross lines Midway Plaisance is at
all times gorgeous in decoration and con-
stant variation of scene, but the display
made by the people Of all nations in honor
of Uncle Sans birthday anniversary
changed the whole aspect of the cosmopol-
itan thoroughfare.
The exercises of the day had a prelude
in procession of the leading participants

company of the Second regiment, headed

boulevards. Heading the line was a car
riage occupied by Mrs. Perry Stafford, of
Martha's Vineyard, and two lady friends,
who held and at intervals waved price

under which Paul Jones sailed with the
authority of congress. Behind came car

aldermen, and the members of the Liberty

Tut the Extra baggage Was Too Much For
the Chicago Man.
"We had some fun last week, said the
drummer to the hotel clerk Saturday
night after he had taken his supper and
his weeks work was done.
''Go on" suggested the clerk encour-
agingly.
1T was up at station on the Flint
and Pere Marquette railroad, where there
is a sawmill and store or two and tim
Der is plenty. There were three or four
Of us, one of the party young Chicago
drummer, who was as fresh as Lake
Michigan. He was jollying everybody
as we were waiting for a delayed train,
and at last he tackled the man who
checked the baggage.
=" Il say he said to him, with a wink
at the rest of us, can / get trunk
checked here for DetroitY
Certainly, if you've got a ticket re.
piled the baggage man.
"'That's ell right. I've got the ticket,
but checking the trunk is what bothers
me-
"Don't worry about that, mister,
said the simple minded baggage man. j
can check any sort of trunk you've got
"'This is such trunk as | never saw
checked explained the Chicago fresh.
"'Bring on your trunk; I'll fix it, in
sisted the baggage man.
I'll bet you s. you won't do it,
bluffed the Chicago man.
"The baggage man replied by takin
out fiver and putting it in my hands
and Chicago came up smiling and pr
his there too.
WAIT he said to the baggage man
with another wink at me, till l go bacl
to the hotel and get it..
"Then he disappeared, and in about 10
minutes he pulled up alongside of the
platform with n team of cattle dragging
the trunk of a tree about 25 feet long and
feet in diameter at its smallest girth.
"'Here you are, shouted the Chicago
man, with big laugh of triumph; bring
on your check. This is my trunk
Il thought, and so did the rest of us,
that Chicago had the countryman, and he
looked it himself at first, for there was
no use talking, he could never get that
thing into the car, but he got his second
wind in moment.
"'All right he said, smiling at the
drummer. Then TO the man with the
team, Haul it over onto them hay

"'Got to see how much it weighs,

you your $50 pounds, should say there
was about 1900 pounds extra baggage in
that trunk, and it'll cost You something
