CELEBRATION AT UNION GROVE.

The morning of July 4th dawned
bright and clear and people were early
astir, all feeling more or less of the
influence of that peculiar something,
called patriotism, which is supposed to
pervade the very atmosphere on that
particular day.
A large number of people assembled
at Union Grove Hall for the purpose of
celebrating the day as best suited their
inclinations.
The exercises commenced at O'clock
Judge Hackett acting as master of cere-
monies. Joe Jensen read the Declare
ton, after which w. HI. Thackr made q
short but appropriate address, and
after listening to some very nice singing
by the Glee Club, the people spent a
couple of hours watching the sports.
Following is list of the prize winners:
100 yard foot race, Henry Hanna; Rum
ming jump, Henry Hannah; Standing
broad jump, Howard Conrad; High
jump, Larson; Hop skip and jump,
Joe Wood; Ladies race, Miss Mamie
Firth first; Miss Abbie Nichols second.
In the "Tug o. War; between the
Valley and Harbor the Valley won after
a hard struggle.
At the dance in the evening the hall
was so crowded that dancing was almost
impossible until after midnight.
The supper and lunch served by
Messrs Nash & Coffin were splendid
and there was plenty for all.
VIM Douglas furnished the refresh
ments and as result was well repaid
by the liberal patronage of the people.
The proceeds of the dance amounted
to $40 and this with the $22 already in
the organ fund amounts to S62 in all.
We understand that the committee
will purchase an organ and give another
entertainment in the near future.

EAST SOUND NEWS ITEMS.

J. n Fry ships so to IS crates of
strawberries per day to New WhatcOm,
by contract at IS cents per crate. He
also has a large contract to ship rasp-
berries, black berries and currants, at
higher prices. A number of other
growers, principally Messrs Tullock,
Donahue and Gibbons, are shipping
large quantities of strawberries. A
heavy crop of black berries is assured
but cherries are almost a total failure.
A party Of four ladies and four gentle
men sailed over to Whatcom on Tues
day before the Fourth in Mr.. Luther
Sutherland's new boat, and only re-
turned OH Monday of this week, being
stormbound at Whatcom. They never
the-less report gay time. The little
steamer Edna lowed them from What
com to the entrance of East Sound bay,
from whence the breeze being favorable,
they came home with flying colors and
sunburnt faces.
Four lady teachers from Seattle are
sojourning at the East Sound House
Misses Schofield, Nicholson, Beeman
and Hensley. They express delight
with the beautiful scenery, balmy air
and quiet rest.
The quiet citizens of East Sound are
congratulating themselves that there
are lo strikes or strikers, tramps or
trampers, no whiskey shops, nor chime
men, no Pullman shops nor hordes Of
idle workmen to terrorize the timid.
We live in peace and plenty, safety and
seclusion. The magnificent lunch,
spread out at the picnic on the Fourth,
presided over by Mrs. L. L. Sutherland,
Mrs. I. S. Waldrip, Mrs Al Hill, Mrs.
Showers and Mrs. Donahue, gave ample
evidence that our people are living well
and not wanting in luxuries. No kings
nor gods ever had better,
Smith Showers has carefully measured
the distance to the top of Mt. Constitu-
ton by the new trail now about COM
peted and, and finds it to be just 81
miles. Mr.. Showers has taken great
interest in opening the new trail and
deserves credit therefor. Shady groves,
fine springs of water and resting places
are frequently met Oh the route.

HARRY HART TOOK A HEADER.

Last Wednesday morning Mr. Harry
Hart took passage on the q. S. Mail
steamer Lydia Thompson for San Juan
island. 1t was lovely morning and
Harry was feeling as bright and airy as
"rooms to let" The little birds were
singing in his heart and glad, gay and
gleeful spirit pervaded his entire anat-
omy. His destination was Argyle. On
the morning mentioned the tide was
so low that it was necessary to lower
boat in order that the passengers might
be landed. Several passengers, among
them "Lucky" Weber, had descended
the rope ladder and were safely seated
in the boat, when Mr.. Hart ignoring
the ladder, seized small rope which
was hanging over the ships side and
with the exclamation "see me fly"
leaned into the surrounding climate,
expecting to land in the small boat
Rut alas, the rope which he had seized
was not tied, and as Mr.. Hart weighs a
fraction over two hundred pounds the
ranid descent he made through the
atmosphere was marvellous to behold.
He landed fully four feet from the boat
and in ten feet of water. After feeling
around under the water few seconds
for a breath of air he came to the surface
when the agonizlng look he bore would
have brought tears to the eyes OF a
potato. He was pulled into the boat
and baled out, but the joy and gladness
/ had faded from his heart like morning
dew from pumpkin vine. He return ed
to Port Townsend Thursday evening
fully convinced of the fact that as a
slack rope performer he is not an emil
nent success.--Leader.

JULY 4th ON MT. CONSTITUTION.

A small party from Friday Harbor
sailed over, to Olga, on the Sd of July in
Rev. Dyer's boat, to be ready to par
ticipate in the celebration en- the 4th.
The top of the mountain was reached
about six p. m. After lunch the party
took their positions on the summit and
watched glorious old Sol sink to rest
behind Vancouver island.
1t was a most magnificent sunset.
Mt. Baker was gilded with its receding
rays, and all the intermediate waters
were crested with gold. A sight more
grand and inspiring it has never fallen
to the lot of this party to witness.
The summit is reached by wagon
road leading from Olga, a distance of
some six miles. 1t is we'll constructed
and safe road on which a wagon can be
taken to the very top of Mt. Consti-
tuition. Much credit is due those enter
prising citizens of OrCas who have with
much labor constructed this road.
The morning of the 4th opened clear
and bright with only slight fog hanging
over the water, but this soon lifted and
the grand view was enjoyed by all who
was gorgeous enough to climb the Mt.
The number of people who made the
assent was not large but their patriot
ism was of the kind which has saved
more than one country, and which is
the bulwark of our own. The exercises
while not elaborate, were designed to
keep alive the fires of patriotism that
should burn brightly in every breast.
The day was fifty closed with fireworks,
fired from the summit, and our party
witnessed them from the water while
vending our way home, waited by a
fresh breeze.
1t was the unanimous vote of our
little party that the trip had well repaid
us for all hardships encountered on the
journey, and, that the view from Mt.
Constitution was one that will cling to
us as long as memory lasts.
Anyone wishing to see one of the
most magnificent views man is allowed
to enjoy, should go to the top of Mt Con-
stitution and your efforts will be repaid

A name was scratched on the reg ister

up a lot Of memories for the old-timers

Eight or Line years ago it was Brew
ster Cameron, dtparimet of Justice"
and there was not a name better known
to the newspaper readers who followed
the Star Route story as It's thrilling chap
ters were unfnlded. He looks pretty
much the same as be did when he was
bending all his energies to secure g con-
viction of the prominent men whom the
government had charged with fraud IN
connection with the mail contracts of
the Star Route service. His mustache
is just as black, his manner just as self
contained and distant. He is practicing
law in Arizona now, but has numerous
connections of capitalistlc nature, and
one OF these days will be a mighty rich
