for this city for the past twenty years. and

The parade, too, was in charge of the
fair sex, and their ingenuity was made
manifest in floats of wondrous beauty.

and far into the night thousands of people
crowded VaIleio's streets, wharyes, hill
sides and eating houses. Large numbers
came from all parts of the country. At
noon the battery at the Navy-yard thun-
dered forth National salute; flags few at
every masthead on the ships, and scores of
yachts with flying pennants made the
river front scene of beauty
At sunrise the people were awakened by
the noise of guns and the ringing OF bells.
Early in the morning the people began to
assemble. The Ariel Bicycle Club came
out with deliberately bedecked wheels, and
over them mammoth canoples and t1ags.
The procession, which passed through the
principal streets. was composed of bicycle
brigades, United States marines and sail
ors from the naval station in full uniform,
veterans of the Mexican and Civil wars,
Pioneers of California, city officials from

LONDON, ENG, July 4.-The American
Society in London gave it's usual Fourth
of July banquet in the hall of the Criterion
restaurant tonight. The hall was beauti-
fully decorated with American and British
flags.
Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, American EN-.
bassador, presided. Covers were laid for
DO guests. Among those present were
the ambassadors and Consuls of the vari-
Gus powers and many well-known Ameri-
cans.
Sir Richard Webster, the Attorney
General, proposed toast to the President
of the United States.
In offering the toast he paid a high
tribute to American institutions, which he
declared were as near perfection as human
wisdom and forethought could make them.
This statement was greeted with cheers.
Continuing Sir Richard dwelt upon the
honor and dignity with which Mr.. Cleve-
laod has filled the Office of President.
ambassador Bayard proposed "The
Day We Celebrate" In speaking to his
toast he said the experience of 120 years
had shown that no government was so
strong ahd safe as that which was anchored
in the affections of the people.
The echo and impulse of the voluntary
principle of government under which the
Americans lived had been felt in Great
Britain. Now there were no other two
countries in which the national heart
formed so greatly the strength of their
Governments. He rejoiced at the assem-
bling of Americans IN London. He felt
completely at home-as much so as in the
United States. Cheers.
He alluded 10 the visit to England of the
Honorable Artillery Company of Boston
IS a gratifying sign of the times, and as
likely to hush the spirit that would seek
10 create contention.
Mr.. Greer proposed 1.-THE Commun ity of
The English Speaking Peoples"
Replying TO this toast the Right Hon.
James Bryce, NJ. p. advocated tangible
expression of the existing community of
feeling. He said he sometimes thought
that the law of each nation might be SO
altered as to recognize the civic rights of
the citizens of the otaer.
Americans ought not to be alienated in
Great Britain and vice versa. The best
way to cement the ties between the two
countries would be to establish tribunal
to settle international disputes.

Mrs. ]. B. Davis read the Declaration of
Independence with singular power ana
sweetness, adding. if possible, to the beau
ties OF the well-beloved document. The
Grafton bv A. G. Burnett was historical
and intellectual treat quite different from
the usual spread-eagle Fourth of July
speech. A chorus of trained voices, led
by the sweet soprano OF Miss Adelaide
Elliott, rendered National airs.
In the afternoon the Ancient and Dis
reputable Order of Squedunks burlesqued
the parade, and made uproarious fun for
an hour or more. feature of the dav
was a burlesque newspaper, which bore
title of 1.-The Truthful Lyre." 1t was a
pretentious little sheet, about the size of
the usual country newspaper, and was
fill from headlines to finish wi h local
hits and good-natured criticism OF leading
men and measures. An edition OF 250O
copies of this remarkable newspaper was
QUICKLY exhausted, and copies are now at
a premium.
The days entertainment concluded with
a brilliant display of fireworks.

TORONTO, ONT, July 4.-News has
reached here from River Moisie on the
north shore to the effect that party of
hunters from Moisie found the remains of
seven Indians about 200 miles in the inte-
rior. The remains were those of family
consisting of father. mother and i've chill
dren. A few notes in the Maskouapi Ian
guage, undoubtedly written by the squaw,
showed that the family had started from
Moisie last fall for the Hudson Bay hunt
ing grounds. After having travelled about
200 miles the provisions ran short and,
there being no game, one after another
succumbed to starvation, the woman being
the last to die
