+ The good people of Chicago Bay
(Hovland P. o. celebrated the glorious
Fourth in the ,old-fashioned, patri otto
style, and all present enjoyed the occa-
sion hugely. The national salute was
fired at suntise when the denizens COM
menced to assemble on the spacious
grounds Of Capt. Ludwig Eliasen, this
handsome site commanding grand view
of the lake and the rom antic stpainted''
rocks in the distance. After vocal and
instrumental music refreshments were
literally served at residence of John and
Emel Eliasen, and the most fastedious
could not fail to be satisfied in every
respect. It was the good fortune OF
The Herald representative to hear some
excellent singing we'll rendered by the
Hovland Glee Club under the able
leadership of Sailor Emel. In the af-
ternoon line of march was formed by
Mayor Jackson with Capt. Olson as
flag barrier at the head, the old stars and
stripes floating grandly in the breeze
and the party, accompanied by soul
stirring music, proceeded to the town
hall, which had been tastefully arranged
for dancing purposes. Here the ladies
and gentlemen enjoyed themselves great
~ in slipping the light fantastic toe''
with John Eliasen as Chief Musician,
Hill p. H., when the party were invited
TO partake of an elegant supper which
had been provided at residence of Mr.,
jacobson, and to which all did ample
Justice. The happy company then again
repaired to the hall where an address
was made by Mr.. Wood followed by
vocal and instrumental music, and call
vent merry as a marriage bell" Moth
d ing occurred to mar the harmony of the
day, and we will long remember the
glorious Fourth at Chicago Bay. The
people there deserve great credit.
