FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION.
A Citizen Suggests We Celebrate
Three Days.

A Citizen Suggests We Celebrate
Three Days.
One of Winston's well known citi-
zens suggests that as the 4th of July
falls on Sunday this year, we might
have grand street parade on Satur-
day, with appropriate speeches.
On Sunday have all Of the churches
decorated and let the various pastors
preach sermons appropriate to the oc-
casion.
On Monday close the celebration
with creditable pyrotechnic dis
play.
BY following this or a similar pro-
gram, "citizen" thinks we would have
the grandest and best celebration ever
witnessed in WinstonSalem.
DIR. j. A. Blum furnishes THE
SENTINEL with some of the names on
the old 4th of July Committees. Some
of the best workers, it is true, have
passed over the river -
Col A B Gorrell, Chairman, Capt
S e Allen, Secretary and Treasurer,

HERE is A VOLCANIC STORY.
The Eruptions In the Great Salt Lake
Terrible to Behold.

The Eruptions In the Great Salt Lake
Terrible to Behold.
SALE LAKE CITY, Utah, March g.
The frequent earthquakes which have
shaken this region in the last rev
months have been explained by the
appearance Of volcano which has
burst forth from the Great Salt Lake,
a short distance south of Promontory
Station, on the Central Pacific Rail-
way.
The volcano is in the lake, about a
mile and quarter from the shore,
and persons living in the neighbor-
hood say that the cloud of smoke
rushes up into the air so high that it
can be seen far away, and the water
in the vicinity boils and surges and
foams. The volcano is in the big arm
of the lake, on the west side of the
long range OF mountains visible from
Brigham City. It. has been in action
several days. 1t began with small
cloud and slight disturbance Of the
water and has increased until it is so
formidable as to create fear and con
sternation among the country people
in the neighborhood

Pratt Norroru ESoana

w lIh ACttcE
Pratt "A Narrow Escape.
Winston had a eusational runaway
last Tnursday-and it terminated in
the death of Mr.. Frank Browns big
gray dray horse.
The animal started from the South
ern freight depot. After running up
Depot street for some distance he
broke loose from the dray-but the
swingle-tree remained to the traces
and struck the horses heels as he ran.
Crossing over to Main street. the ami
NAL ran down to the court house
square.
The people on the streets scattered
in every direction. Mrs. J. S Star
buck was on Main street and when
she saw the horse coming she ran into
the basement under Mr.. Browns
store when she fell and sprained her
ankle.
The horse turned up Fourth street
and ran to Elm, down Elm to Third,
up Third to Liberty, up Liberty to
Fourth, down Fourth to Main, when
he ran into the entrance to the Mu-
nicipal building and fell dead.
Letter Carrier Pratt was standing
at the corner of Main and Fourth
streets locking mail box when he
saw the horse coming. He ran into
the entrance to get out Of the way
but the horse cnme in behind him
and the two collided. Mr.. Pratt was
knocked down and painfully but not
seriously injured. He was able to
continue his round in delivering mail.
Mr.. Pratt thinks the hard fall killed
the horse.
The animal is the same one that
ran away several days ago and jumped
on a wagon loaded with wood, on
Trade street. The animal was a
wild westerner." Mr.. Brown pur-
chased him in 1895 from a drover.
