The National Heart,
Center of Its Life.

The morning sermon by the Rev. Will
liam RAIDER of the Third Cong regationa
Church comprised the following text:
keep thy heart with diligence, for out Of
it are the issues of life. Proverbs.
TOHN MILTON thought of the nation as an
enlarged person. Elisha Milford defined
! the state as moral organism. This is the
y Christian estimate of the nauon-ma king
it responsible to God as an individual The
same laws binding the citizen bind the re-
public.
1t is not the constitution or Declaration of In
dependence nor political party. The heart OF
the Nation is not the Congress, neither the
President Destroy all and you have left the
American spirit in the roots OF our National
life.
We might destroy our commerce and level
our colleges to the ground and blow the CAPT
tol into fragments; the eternal principles OF
the National heart would make another COM
merce and build another Washington. John
G, Holland has defined the National heart as
love of home, love of conntry and love to God.
He defines il as great and permanent anec-
ton expressed in the family, in PATRIOTISM
and in religion. Out of this triple love spring
the issues of 1ife the safe politics and civic
passions of the Republic.
Patriotism is metimes the refuge of ras-
Gals but it is in its purity religion. 1t is the
noblest civic passion. The kind we need is
that which does not carry a chip on its shoul-
der, but strives to develop the Nation from
within Our enemies are living with u.s. They
are here. The Schoolhouse is better tnan the
fort The schoolteacher is one OF the guar
dians of liberty.
Love to God recognizes Him as the Provi-
dence of the Republic. Our Nation was built
on that faith. Our fathers were Christians.
The pulpit fred the morning gun OF the reyo-
luton, This love must be kept pure The
heart of the Nation is what the rudder is to
the snip.

Our Country;
Its PeriIs and Blessings.

Rev. w. A. Gardner at the West Side
Christian Church, preached upon the
topic, "Our Country; Its Perils and
Blessings" his text being:
Amos v:15. "Hate the evil aud love the good
and establish Judgment in the gates"
TE is my best friend who not only en-
/" courages me by reciting my virtues, but
L L who tells me OF my 1mperfectiOns, that
may correct them. He is the true pa
triot, who, on our National birthday, not only
becomes enthusiastic over our cOuntry's
achievements and victories, but calmly con-
siders its weakness and perils.
There are forces at work in our country ap-
proved by leading statesmen which, if allowed
to go unrestrained will certainly wreck the
grand "Old Ship OF State" which has stood the
storms of nearly one and quarter cen uries
Political corruption, which is everywhere
rampant, has become serious menace to tn e
stability oil our Government. Men and wome u
OF irreproachable characters, and holding di-
plomas from our Normal Schools or our un j.
versities, in order 10 become teachers in some
of our public schools must put large sum OF
money in the hands OF some political heeler

estly discharge their duties as public servants
Judges of the State Supreme Court and United
States Senators have become ward poll iticians;

sheep AS an alder and abetior OF this poIiti-
cal rottenness King Alcohol has been en-
throned, and wields a scepter far more tyran-
nical than was the rule OF George LII.
With all our weakness and perlls our coun
try possesses the most beautiful, the most pro
ductivc, and in all things the most desirable
territory on earth. Our Government is the
most stable, our laws the most equitable and

Captain Sennett.
The race home was pretty to behold,
for the little fellows seemed TO be almost
flying.
Crowley, the .'kid," clung to his lead all
the way to the line and finished one
minute ahead of his dad. Behan got thlrd
prize, coming in two minutes behind the
elder Crowley. Sennett was fourth, ana
Mike Fitzgerald, the Merchants Ex-
change champion, was last.
Then came the race for the hshlng
smacks. These were nearly all manned
by Italian fishermen. The boats that
started were the Victoria, Liguria, Saliva
tora, Garfield, Stella. Rosetta. Giannetta.
Novo Monde and Riva Mana. At the
start the Salvatore and Garfield collided
and the latter's jibboom was carried away.
That retired her from the race. While
the boats were all standing out for Bios
som Rock the Victoria lost her rudder and
she too was compelled to withdraw. The
course Tor this race was the same as that
over which the whitehalls sailed-from
Powell-street wharf to Fort Point and
back.
The Liguria took the lead right from the
start and never lost it. The Salvatore
pressed her closely and finished good
second. The Stella was third and the
Rosetta fourth. None of the Others I'm

The Fortunes
Of the Republic.

OAKLAND CAL, July 4.-Last even
ing at the Twenty-irst-street Free Bap-
tist Church, the pastor, Rev. Philip Graft,
preached a patriotic discourse on 1.-The
Fortune of the Republic, Its Perils,
things said:
X TElTHER the prophet of i'll nor the roseate
M optimistic dreamer sees the truth full
i y orbed and unprejudiced, but he who,
confesslng the imminent perflS ana
shadows OF the hour looks forward with the
eye OF faith and heroic nerve to a better nd
happier Tomorrow Undiluted pessimism
thins the blood, wrinkles the brow, skins off
the cream OF enterprise and courage and in
vites defeat and ruin Not the ravens croak,
but the larks song is, in the long run, the
truer music. No doubt our country's present
perils OF illiteracy, the rum. power, labor
troubles, machine politics and gold-greed are
many and great, and call for swift and radical
reform, but we must not forget our enormous
gains during the century now closing-gains
in point of convenience and comfort, liberty
and refinement, morals and religion that
ought to kfndle spark of hope and apprecia-
ton In the breast OF the gloomiest Nordau or
Schopenhauer. To be utterly blind to our
Nations romance of progress is to lack the
historic sense and the judicial cast of mind.
OF course the patriot sees keenly the multi
form existing evils of to-day, but in his sanest
moments and sharpest criticisms he never
sounds Cassandrn note. Soft. stlken words
never cure social ills. Under such providen-
tial guidance as our land has mad from its in
coherent beginnings to it's present magnitude
and greatness we may we'll hope that ulti-
nate America will prod uce finer type of man
and a grander civilization than the world has
ever known. To be hostile to our flag or in
different 10 our institutions is to be unworthy
of our American citizenship. There is no
higher privilege and honor than celebrating
the heroic yesterdays, and promoting as far
as posi- BILE our republics movement toward
golden future in which the material splendors
are eclipsed by the moral cOnquests and
oil cries

ACCIDENTS AND BURNS.
The Small Boys and Girls Celebrate
the Day With Their Usual
Enthusiasm,


All over the City the small boys and
girls celebrated the day with their usual
enthusiasm by firing off toy cannons. toy
pistols, firecrackers and other explosives,
resulting in the usual number OF injuries
more or less severe.
The doctors at the Receiving Hospital
were kept busy all day and night treating
powder burns on faces and hands and
other juries. Mamie Devine, 232 Lang
ton street, was wounded on the knee by a
bullet fired from a toy pistol. she was
walking on Tenth street, between Folsom
and Harrison, when she felt burning
sensation II her knee. She did not know
who fired the shot.
A toy cannon exploded on Ivy avenue
and in jured three boys-Thomas McClos-
key, 435 Linden avenue; c. Hiby, 321 Fell
street, and r. Linehan, 318A Octavia street.
McCloskey had lacerated wound of the
neck; Hiby, lacerated wound of the
scalp and neck, and Linehan lacerated

order. Samuel d. Mayer. the organist,
rendered beautiful organ prelude, fol-
lowed by the invocation and responsive
reading and hymn by the congregation.
An anthem, 1.-THE American Hymn" was
rendered in most effective manner by
Mrs. B. E. Paxton, soprano and Mr..
Mayer, tenor.
At the end OF the prayer by the pastor,
Rev. George e. Adams, the Masonic choir
sang 1.-The Lords Prayer" This choir is
composed OF J. 2. Fleming basso; S. D.
Mayer, tenor; J. r. Ogilvie and J. R.
Jones. Mr.. Fleming also rendered a bass
solo, "God OF Our Fathers"
Rev. Mr.. Adams sermon was full of life
and many beautiful expressions. His
theme was, "a Land Which the Lord Thy
God Careth For" He spoke of the an
cient countries that came into power an d
died away, their fall usually being caused
by the ungodliness of the people, and he
prophesled that this land will never come
to such an end. This country, ne said, is
Gods country and he will always care
for and maintain it. 1t was rehgiously
discovered and religiously settled. He
discoursed upon the early discoverers and
called attention to the fact that they al
ways set out on their voyages with a
prayer and accom- panied by the repre-
sentatIves of their churches, and their
first thought upon setting foot On the new
soil vas to return thanks to God and erect
cross in his name.
In this strain the pastor passed on
through the history of America and the
United States, everywhere illustrating his
point that the hand of the Creator was
shaping and moIding the greatest nation
on the face of the earth. Mr.. Adams, in
spea king of the future, painted a rosy
hued picture. and SAID that although
clouds sometimes hang over the land and
things look dark, still this country will
contin ue to go onward and upward, until
the prayer of John Adams of 100 years ago
is fulfilled that God would make this the
grandest republic the sun ever dwell
upon.
