The genius of Greek fire and pyrotech-
mics has outdone himself this season. A
visit to places where fireworks are made,
experimented with, and whence the
distribution takes place that supplies
people everywhere, would speedily con-
vince the most sleptical that this is
the year of most wonderful fireworks.
The names of some of the new ideas are
as strange as the fireworks themselves.
There is the devil among the tailors." "
AS his neighbor is Jack in the box"
Then we have fiery waggler rockets -
true lovers knots" and dozen others.
One of the newest this season is called
"Aladdins jeweled tree" In itself, just
before the match has been touched, it
looks not unlike huge cornucopia, but
after you touch the match such blaze
of beauty spouts up that it fairly daz-
zles one. 1 do not pretend to say how
they do it, but 1 never saw SO many
prisms in appearance as are found il,
the growth of this remarkable tree
There is another tree that is beauti-
full indeed. 1t is called the silver birch"
Nature has constructed a very beautiful
silver birch tree, but such gorgeous
ness as this one exhibits was never
equaled by nature, except in the tropics
1t is column of fire at first, out of
which seemingly grows silver birch
tree Of SURPRISING beauty, enshrined in
q cloud of opalescent hues Just imagine
what a charm there is in sight of this
sort.
The Indian juggler has been put on the
list this season and the contrivances
that are supposed to give fiery repre-
sentation of the strange things that he
can accomplish are as wonderful to look

known as the peacock plumes, which
form in high plumes of peacock feathers,
with colored eyes.
The most patriotic of all Fourth of
July observers will be delighted with
the national Streamer rocket. which
shows the national colors in long stream
ers of brilliant light. One of the queer
est rockets is called the "Fiery Waggler."
The effect it gives is dragonlike, for it
whirls and waggles about like mad
while in mid-air. The parachute rock
cts carry floating stars attached to in
visible balloons, which keep the lights
atoat for some time, their colors chang
ing while they slowly descend toward
earth. The floating festoon rockets rise
from the ground with an immense trail
of golden fire and emit mass of lights
which form into festoons, of jewels of ell
colors
One of the most charming rocket ef
fects comes from what is known as a
hanging chain rocket. The bursting Of
this rocket releases long chains of col
ored lights which float in mid-air, chang
ing to various colors until they are out
of sight. The true lovers knot glows
when touched with match as brilliant
ly as the most ardent affection ever pos
sibly could. In appearance it is like
nothing else, and, like the course Of
true love, has many rough PLACES
about it..
There are a lot of marine novelties this
year, although they develop nothing
particularly extraordinary Among
them are the flying fish, diving devils,
prismatic fountains, floating beacons,
floating batteries, fiery geysers and the
submarine torpedo. From the facts Civ
en- it will be seen that the displays of
fireworks should be novel. Certainly
there is plenty of opportunity to make
them so.

were Thomas p. Cummins, a bro

penters, when bullet came crash

the carpenters were at work.
Mr.. Emmeluth took no notice OF
the shot, believing that the report
was due to falling timbers in the ad-
joining lumber yard OF Levers IL

he saw T. B. Walker crossing the
street with a smoking rifle in his
hand.
No further attack was made, and
after throwing down his rifle Walker
hurried to the Police Station where
he surrendered himself, stating that
he had shot Emmeluth.
