THE DAY WE CELEBRATE
And the star-spangled banner
In triumph shall wave
OSar Tho Iapd nf fbo froo

In triumph SHAH wave
Ger the land of the free
And the home OF the brave.
In every place in this country today th,
eagle will scream in pride, the firecracke
will pop. the Declaration of independence,
will be read, orators vii, descant on tht
greatness and glorIes Of this noble land
and healthy, inspiriting tonic effect o
patriotism will be spread throughout thu
country. The American citizen today
has many things to be thankful for; the
country is emerging with splendid vigoi
from one OF the most trying periods OF
commercial depression known to history
period when disaster and turbulence
went stalking through the land, hand in
hand, leaving ruin and blood in theft
path. But both of these norrid features
no sooner showed themselves than they
were forced to retreat before the power of
the true American idea. and at last
skulked away to that limbo of darkness
which hides their kindred types OF an
archy and crime. Capital and labor are
once more allies in the work of progress,
manufacturers are busy, farmers are
CHEEKY, the mechanic is at work, wages
and dividends are reaching a satisfactory
standard, and this mornings sun shines
on prosperous. contented nation, whose
power is unlimited, but whose force is
penefcently devoted to the pursuit OF
happiness under the guidance of the
spirit of peace on earth, good will to-
ward men.
The day is one that the good CITIZEN
should regard with seriousness as we'll as
an exultant pride. He should try to
realize the duty his citizenship entails on
him, and his responsibility toward his
brothers. He should buckle down to a
conscientious study of tho political ques
tiOns which are yet to be solved, in spirit
OF lofty patriotism, free from the allure.
menus of fatuous partsanship. He
should resolve to expose and crush cor
ruption wherever found; to encourage
and sustain honest, devoted men who
serve the country; to avoid the simply
''smart good fellow" who wants an office
and cast his vote for the man who will hon
or as well as be honored by position as
servant to the people; he should regard
the honor OF his city, county, state and
nation with the same solicitude and
affection that he gives to his parents, his
wife or his children he should have an
unalterable, absolute confidence in the
principles of our government as laid down
in those magnificent documents of lib
erty. the Declaration of Independence and
the Constitution of the United States, and
be should regard any infringement or yio-
lation of the doctrine laid down therein as
lie would an insult to his honor or an in.
Jury to his dearest interests.

SOME POSTOFFICE PLANTS
Poor Postofflce Pens

Editor Herald AS matter OF news
interesting to the public the following is
a true story: was in the postoffice this
morning (July 3d) to get money order.

As compared with last year tine show ing

mind that the panic of '93 did not make

A WHITE PANTHER,

New Curiosity From the Caucasus
Captured by n Prince.
From the London Daily News.
Another geological curiosity in the shape
of a white panther is now attracting, sight
seers to the Jardin des Plantes. Our Paris
correspondent says it is 4 most graceful
being, and may be called the fair Cau-
oasian of the panther tribe. 1t was cap
tured in the Caucasus by Prince Gargarine,
who thought he would contribute to the
Franco-Russian friendly understanding by
sending it to Paris. The passage from the
pert where 1t was put on board a steamer
coming to Marseilles was very rough. The
white panther suffered greatly, not ;ippar-
emily from seasckness. but from nervous
alarm.
three-year-old creature of its race, but its
would expect in a feline. The eyes are gilt
teringly bright. and the bushy tail makes
this panther seem an oyergrcwn Angora of
the white species. The muStaches are
short, the fur Is thick and longer aud more
silky tFan that of the spotted panther, but
/ doubt whether it will, should it live to an
old age, remain white. 1t appears that
when caught the robe was more snowy. 1t
Is now taking q cream tinge, and faint
spots are beginning to appear. NJ. Milne
Edwards considers it an interesting rarity.
it's whiteness is that it was caused by an
instructive and unconscious attempt of an
cestors to adapt themselves to a snowy re-
gion Of the Caucasus. The long fur is
taken to point to habitual residence in q

A Young Woman Says 1t Varies With
Every Attachment.
From the New York Sun.
81 suppose it's perfectly harmless
amusement" said a young woman of OBJ
seryation, but for the life of me I can't
see the use of all this discussion that's go
ing or concerning mans most attractive
trait to women. Why. 1t Is not a question
of any trait of general application at all;
1t simply depends on the womans idea OF
what is most attractive in some certain
man at some certain time. She may hold
to tho ideal all through her girlhood that
the only worshipful man Is the poetic and
soulful creature, and then flop completely
over and throw herself at the muddy feet
of the tousle-headed half back of col
lege foot ball team.
It's all nonsense to say that we women
have got any well-sustained, well-defned
ideals of manly character. We don't fall
In love with a man because he fills out our
plan, but because we like the fellow; be-
cause we can't help ourselves, in fact; and
then We make the astonishing discovery
that his characteristics are just those that
we admire. Our ideal changes with each
new case of heart affection, for if 1t were
not so, how could me manage to endure q
change of sweethearts? / believe there
are some girls in this world who have
made a selection from the other sex by
rule and rote. but they are simply freaks,
and 1 look on them with mingled wonder
and pity"

The Japanese Soldiers Diary.

From the London Daily News
1t appears that note books are quite
common in the japanese army among
both soldiers and coolies: they keep regu-
lar diaries, and take copious notes Of
everything they see. TT is surprising"
writes a war correspondent to the China
Mail, what lot they know about the
great west. Several of them talk intelli
gently of Spartans and Persians, Napoleon
and his march to Moscow. and even com
pare the abolition of feudalism in England
and Japan. They fully understand all that
is implied in the contrast between old-fash-
iored hand-to-hand warfare and modern
lcng-range maneuverS, and they speak
ScornfClly of the Chinese tactics at Ping
yang, in trying cavalry charges against
maSsed bodies of rifiemen without first
using their machine guns, as the French
at Waterloo did their field pieces, to throw
the ranks into disorder. All this from the
japanese must be surprising to Europeans,
because we do not know them. Their
pre- gress IS greater and more real than
foreigners imagine.

THE BIG HAT NUISANCE,
Some Things BEING Done to Abate It
and Others That Might Be Tried.

Some Things BEING Done to Abate 1t
and Others That Might Be Tried.
From the Indianapolis Journal
The theater goers of Carthage Mo-, who
are preparing bill for their state legisla-
tlre. making it a misdemeanor for ladies
attending the theater to wear high hats,
will have the sympathy of all other thea
ter goers. but to the Pickings man it seems
as il they are working on the wrong track.
The only way TO fight the big hat nuisance
is to enlist women in the warfare. Get the
leaders of fashion to promise never to wear
big hat at an entertainment, to go bare
headed or to wear the small bandeaux
which are now the most stylish things for
theater wear. Get the milliners great and
snail, TO concoct dainty wreaths of flowers
and small bows for evening wear, and to
advertise that no other style of headgear
is fashionable for evening wear. Women
always want to be on the popular side, and
the few women who find themselves wear
ig large hats to the theater will soon take
them off If on looking around they see
ether women b2rehsaded. Nothing is as
becoming to woman as her becomingly
arranged couture, with the handsome pins
ard combs that are now worn. Then, my
fellow men, there is a way in which YOU
may aid in encouraging your wives, daugh-
tiers, sister and mothers to discard their
hats. Take home a tiny, dainty evening
bonnet as a surprise. Or if you are afraid
to select, give her the money and tell her
it is for an evening bonnet. You may have
to sacrifice a few cigars, etc, but you are
aiding a noble cause. Another way in
which society men may aid the work is to
wear their dress suits to the theater. No
girl would wear her street dress and big
hat to the theater if escorted by man in
a dress suit. Men in other cities wear
dress for calling in the evening, but In
dianapolis men, who wear theirs to the
theater, Will find they will have a remark
able effect on the women who wear high
hats.
