Hon. Elwood Bruner was next intro

His address on ''The Future Highway
of the Republic" was filled with patri-
otto expression, and he carried the
sympathy of his audience along with
him as he spoke, as was evidenced by
the frequent applause that greeted the
sentiments he expressed. The address
was as follows:
Friends and fellow-citizens: Love Of
our couatry's flag, the exultant throns or
patriotism in our hearts, and our ever
constant loyalty and devotion to the
cause of the true civilization, are the
mighty impulses that stir the blood of

ADJUSTMENTS. A

AT the Orpheum last night the Web
ster- Muller Company produced to a very
good house considering the counter at
fractions, the thrilling sensational and
spectacular melodrama, Under the
Polar Star" 1t is a nautical story full
of thrilling adventure, touching trials
of love, heroic accomplishment, Won
derful fidelity and great physical trial.
The scenic effects are triumphs Of art.
Notably fine is the scene on the deck
of the Polar Star when the steamer
collides with an iceberg; more tragic
and realistic still is the scene of ARC
tic Winter Quarters" and the burn
ing of the steamer. But these are
eclipsed by the realism of the drift on
ice-foes across the North Pole. Scenic
richness and beauty abound and the
heroic and tragic dominate, but never
theless there is a vein of humor thread
ed through the play. Mr.. Webster, for
the first time here, appeared in a dia-
lect role and proved his versatile quail
ity admirably as an all around leading
man, and his correct conception of the
text given him to study. Miss Nam
merry was highly successful in a trying
role, through the agency of which she
won the profound sympathy and plaud-
it's of the audience. Mr.. Ross had this
time the congenial not the villainous
part, and filled it with spirit, sensibil-
fty and a fine regard for the thought of
the author. Mr.. Scott was the bold
bad man and deed-damning villain Of
the play and proved his strength, the
informing Judgment of his thought to
be level with the idea of the play
wright The piece was a great success
and ought to draw full houses the week
through, as doubtless it will, now that
the holiday time is over and outer at
fractions are fewer. The same bill to-
night and during the week.

THE FIREWORKS.
Nearly Ten Thousand People As
seInbled to Witness Them.

Capitol Park was a lively scene la st
night as soon as it began to grow dark
Coming from all directions was a steady
stream of male and female, old, young
and middle-aged.
The objective point was the portion
of the Park where frames had been set
up for the discharge of fireworks. The
green sward was inviting and the
couples and groups lounged around
while waiting for the display to begin.
1t had been announced that it would
begin at half-past z, but it was more
than an hour after that time when the
first rocket went up. Meanwhile the
people streamed steadily. in.. until nearly
10000 must have. been scattered around
between the Capitol building and tho
fireworks.
The Committee on Evening Entertain-
ment having been short on funds, was
unable to put any set pieces on the
contract and the display had not the
variety ON that account that it had on
previous occasions, there being only
rockets, bombs of various kinds, flow
erpots, ETC., but the forms and colors
shown at their discharge were very
pretty and gave general satisfaction,
and the crowd did not move until the
last rocket was gone
After the fireworks We're ended there
was another display at the Bug
Pinchers' - headquarters near Seventh
and streets, where 800 had been de-
voted to the festive firecracker. Long
strings of firecrackers were hung up,
some of them being eight to ten feet
long and one being said to contain 5Q,-

For God said "Lo, the word writ,
Are ye tracing well its story?
das Freedom decreased in your land 10

Is Liberty still your glory?"
Then clash of arms,
And red, red strife,
And wars alarms
And the ebb of life:
The ebb of life
And the blood-stained sod,
And over it all
Was God, their God,
I'LL freedom was torn from the hand of
:. might,
And the Stars and Stripes swung out to
the light
deem it truth that we who hold
An heritage from such as they
ehould give to ii our love untold,
Our hearts devotion give Away;
And when there came to that cry
From Cuba, kissed by southern suns,
Give aid, ye freemen, or we die!
Give aid, for, 10, our hearts blood runs"
We could but do the thing we did;
We dared not falter on the way
With freedom ours, dear God forbid
That we should fold our hands while
Dropped down to death. Our sons are
Their mothers kiss their lips and say,
'God grant that you return ere long,
My boy. whom l devote to-day
To freedom cause" And so they SO,
Our brave, true boys, the faith to keep.
And some shall come again, we know,
And some shall fold their hands and
sleep.
For still that writing on the page,
He will not alter IL whit.
Though war s red demons fume and rage
Still stands the word as it was writ.
oh. loyal hearts, bow down, bow down,
Ye are weak His will to do;
To place on Liberty it's crown :.
To strike the tyrantS purpose through;
To give to manhood higher grace;
To lift the misty veil and see
in some far-off, divinest place.
The race exalted, godlike, free.
Ye are so weak, this thing to do
Nay, doubling soul, the word is wrong,
For To- His purpose shall strike through
Thy weakness and shall make thee
strong
And thou, my country, born in pain
And Graded on the field of strife,
Look upward still, the hight to gain,
The hight of freer, nobler life.
Through thee shall tyrants be downcast-
Lo. on thy page His writing see!-
And man shall stand erect at last.
1t yet shall be; it yet shall be.
