The small boy was In his glory, and

A country darby and his wife, who
arrived I'm town early in the day. were
hardly as peaceful about the time people

The usual crowd TO Old Point did not
go 10 that place yesterday. Most Of those
who usually spend the glorious Fourth
there went down TO the rendezvous, ana
prepared 70 spend the day otherwise.
The celebration OF the day yesterday
was confined almost entirely 10 the
masses. The fashionable set was con-
spicuous by its absence. and only Few
OF them went 10 the seashore.
ChImborazo Park presented an alto
gether merry scene yesterday. Hundreds
OF people lounged therein.
The anglers got in their work on the
banks OF the noble James. and the I'M

Many n merry scream announced the
presence Of the innocent three-y ear-olds
in Monroe Park during the day. There
was a large delegation OF young ones who
toddled across the grass regardless OF or

and gave their nurses much anxiety in
looking after r1eir safety. while the ex-
treme youthful contingent, who cele-
brated their first Independence day,
squalled for freedom and tried to con-
vince the inhabitants IN the neighbor-
hood that they were the people.
The Richmond and Seven Pines railway
did a rushing business yesterday. The
crowd at Twenty-ninth and j streets
seemed >ver increasing. The load that
each car took away seemed to make no
impression upon the number. The ride
to Seven Pines was calculated to shake
the nerves Of a strong man. The unfor-
tunate writer OF this piece secured
position in the middle Of the aisle, and
maintained his place 10 the bitter end,
for upon the toe OF his fairy foot was
poised the form OF damsel Of ebon
hue and two hundred pounds avordupois.
while the voice OF a nursing OF three
summers struck the tynpanum Of his

misery an old maid on his right admin

progressing. Between Is and 100 hands
have been busy for a week or more, and
the campus looks like a city. Holman q
Co. have pushed the work Of laying pipes
In a manner TO make the head OF the
average Chapel Hill iaborer swim and

The growth OF the University during the
last two years is well illustrated by the
fact that the posmasters salary has been
raised from $500 TO 1920 ny increased
business In that time.
Twelve new rooms have been added TO
the dormitory capacity OF the University
by changes in the location OF the labora-
tories lecture rooms, &c.
There were seven married men among
the students last year. and applications
since received indicate that the number
Will reached ten next year. This is an
index of the maturity OF the students.
Applications are coming in from

the business establishments shut their
doors tight, and nearly everybody in
Manchester took a day of for one OF the
excursions, picnics, or a seat on the

There is good deal OF speculation as to
what disposition will be made of Admiral

they will be held to await further de-
velopments. This, however, is not likely.
The gain in time made by the detention
of Barbados would be uncomfortable,
and as the ships will have to be fitted out
in case they are compelled to again make
long voyage around to the Pacific, it is
extremely probable that Admiral Cher

savings Yet to be Mnde.

A process has recently been discovered
for saving the refuse from wooden mills
which SO defiles the streams. The oil
commonly wasted in this way with other
products would in many cases be highly
valuable, the refuse from the Providence,
r. l., mills alone being estimated as
worth $50 day. Along this line is room
for very valuable work III the future. The
polluted streams to-day are a disgrace to
civilization, and source of disease Oft
times as well. Just as the present gener-
alton has found in the great chemical
works the means of saving gases that
once devastated their vicinity and by con-
densation has transformed them into val
liable articles of commerce, so perhaps
the next generation may redeem the
creeks and rivers of our mining and man
ufacturing districts, and the streams into
which cities now pour their sewage, from
the disgrace of the present and win from
them wealth that is now lost to mankind.
The sewage of city like New York, if it
could be used as fertilizer, would be worth
$50, 0O0, 600 year.

have persisted in the flames of the insane

the debris has not yet been removed.
Search of the ruins will be continued to-
morrow.
y possible clew to the origin of tho

the pauper insane were habitual users OF

which to light their pipes. Keeper Dris-

Bill Praying for a Receiver of the Har-
mony Society.
PITTsBURG PENN, Feb. lO.-A bill
praying for the appointment of a receiver
for the property of the Harmony Society
and an accounting by the President,
John Duss, was filed at Beaver to-day. In
addition to alleging that much of the
$4.OO0,OO0 of the property of the society
had been lost through fraud, negligence
and Encouragement of Duss and
Trustee Sieber, rendering the society in
solvent, the bill charges they are living
in luxury with their wives in contra
vention of the main principle Of The So
cicty, which enjoins celibacy, while other
members are obliged to exc out a pre-
| carious existence; also, that the Board of
Elders are confirmed and common
drunkards; that Duss sought to cast dis
credit on the society by casting doubts
| on the story of the Christ and by preach
ing the doctrines OF Cyrus iced, tho
"Koresh" of Chicago, and prince
Michael Mills Of Detroit, pretended
divine beings. The bill goes on to state
! various losing ventures which Duss has
entered into in the name of the society. he
being in fact the sole manager of its af-
fairs, since the other trustees are merely
his tools and that ne refuses to enter an
accounting. This is the first step in the
! hotly contested battle. The entering OF
4 the suit Will surprise the Economics as
much as any one, for most of the MEM
bers thought the trouble had blown over.
An afternoon paper is authority for tho
statement that the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania has entered legal battle for
possession of the immense wealth of the
Economic Society. The matter is now
| in the hands of States Attorney-General
Hensel, and is being prosecuted by the
ablest legal talent of the Allegheny and
Beaver County bars. Proceedings will be
! instituted at once, and will be far-reach-
ing in all results. If successful, it will
involve the absolute surrender of all
property OF the Economic Society and
its coniscation by the State. 1t will be
proceeding in escheat, based on the estab-
hshed precedent of eminent legal author
ity and Act of the Assembly forbidding
the conduct of societies whose principles
are at variance with public custom and
against the spirit of the Constitution. It
is claimed that sufficient authority has
been obtained to disrupt the cenbate
community and turn its goods and chat
tells into the State Treasury.
The proceedings have no connection
with the suit filed in the Beaver County
courts to-day by Feichts and other Econ
onites asking for receiver to wind up
the affairs of the organization. On the
contrary, the two battles will be fought
on entirely different lines, the issues be-
ing contrary and detrimental to each
other, as the success of the States case
would necessarily mean failure of the
prosecution on behalf the malcontents in
the society

Two Anarchists Tried as Accessories
Before the Fact.
PITTsBURG, Feb. l0.-Henry Bauer and
Carl Knold, the two anarchists convicted
yesterday of conspiracy to incite riot at
Homestead, were again placed on trial
to-day as accessories before the fact to the
shooting of Chairman II. c. Erick of the
Carnegie Company. Bergman was
brought from the penitentiary as the
principal witness for the defense. He
said ne came from New York to kill
Frick, but denied positively that either
of the defendants were acquainted with
his mission.
A number of officers were examined.
who told of the arrest of defendants and
conversations with them later.
After a short address by counsel, the
Judge charged the jury, favoring acquit-
tai more than conviction.
The jury then retired, and after waiting
for their return until $50 O'Clock, the
court adjourned until morning, when a
settled verdict will be received
Monday next Hugh O'Donnell will be

A General Merchandise Store De-

SAN RAFAEL, Feb. l0.-This morning,
at 3:45 o'clock building of Joseph Es-
GALES, situated about three and half
miles from here, was discovered to be on
fire, and as there is no local fire appara-
tus or department within reach the fire
took its course, leaving the premises a
total loss. The buildings were occupied
by him as a general merchandise store
and a saloon, and has been known as
quite summer resort for San Francisco
people in the summer season. The orig
ination of the fire is unknown, and the
loss is estimated at several thousand dol
lars. The building was partly insured
for 81 900.
