HOW TO CELEBRATE JULY 4.

The question that is now agitating
the minds of the patriotic people is
Where can / spend an ENJOYABLE
Fourth? The answer that is most ap-
propriate to this is Laurel Hill park.
The Holy Cross congregation have en-
gagged the park for the Fourth and are
making preparations to give a most
enjoyable time to all who attend.
The committees in charge have been
working vigorously and their tedious
work will be appreciated on that day.
The Fourth generally furnishes us a
very hot day, and no doubt the heat
will be great factor in increasing the
crowds at the park. 1T is estimated to
be one of the places almost within the
city limits where the sweltering sun
can be defied
The grounds have recently heeu i'm
proved with many flower beds, and
beautiful roses throughout the heavily
shaded. park, and with the street car
facilities any one is enabled to return
home without fear of being crushed or
Jared. The committee in charge
have engaged the Lawrence fun or
chestra for the day TO furnish dance
music, and this alone is an inducement
to the lovers of the dance.
BASE BALL.
The very hest base ball clubs in the
city have been engaged to play, and
they viii furnish a game in the morn
ing and one IN the afternoon.
A complete programme of games
have been arranged and choir of 200
children, under the direction of Prof.
Haydn Evans, will give a concert i'm
the evening. Admission to the park
will be 20 cents children, Is cents. ..

DARING ATHLETE.
Man to Be Shot from a Cannon In
Mid-Air on July4.

The Nasle Bammerlin Balloon COM
pany, CT Mansfield, o., has in it's en-
ploy some of the most daring aeronauts
in the world, and it is gratifying to note
that, notwithstanding the enormous
expense attached thereto, the Caledon-
ians of this city have secured, through
their agency, one of the most thrilling
attractions for their games at the Driv-
ing park July 4th ever witnessed in this
section. 1t consists of a man ascend
ing to dizzy height in a balloon,
and then being shot into space from a
cannon, descending to terra -firma by
the aid of parachute, This, in con-
nection with a splendid programme of
athletic events, combine to insure a
day of rare sport, which will certainly
be enjoyed by thousands Of people. Are
you to be one of the number?

THE PUBLIC RESPOND.
The Opening OF the Martin Shoe Sale
Draws n Crowd.

1t may seem hard to awaken shoe
buying enthusiasm in hot weather, but
citizens always are quick to take ad-
vantage of legitimate reductions in
price on standard footwear. The OPEN
ing of the sale of the Martin stock of
Rochester shoes yesterday morning full
ly proved that when an opportunity
such as this big purchase of ours made
possible is offered, the response will be
quick and decided. Such bargains and
such selling always go together. Half
prices ON seasonable shoes are not the
rule of everyday selling, and the pub
lie knows when to grasp the chance to
own them at the values.

Governor Mount VIII Address the
Meeting TO-Day-Pingree to
Cory Indiana Law.

The county assessors of the State will
meet this morning at 10 o'clock in the cham
Der of the House of Representatives in the
Capitol building. Governor Mount will call
the meeting to order and will make a short
address. Some of the assessors are already
In the city, and it is expected that fully
eighty of the ninety-two in the State will
be here The meeting will be in session two
days.
The purpose of the gathering is for the
discussion of the tax law and methods en-
ployed in making valuations of property,
the end in view being to arrive at uni
formity in assessment work all over the
State, so that the provision of the law
which says that all property shall be APP
praised at its cash value shall be complied
with everywhere SO far as is practicable.
AS the method of assessing real property
is the same all over the State, the dis
cussions in the meeting will be entirely con-
fined to that of personal property, and
whatever conclusions will be arrived at will
be used by the assessors as a guide in
making their assessments during the next
month for the year 1899. 1t is expected that
prominence will be given in the discussions
to building and loan stock, private banking
assets and minor kinds Of property upon
which there has been considerable diversity
in the mode of taxing. Committees on vari-
Gus subjects will be announced upon the
organization Of the convention. The mem
bers of the State Board Of Tax Commission
ers will be in attendance and will take an
active part in the proceedings.
The assessors that were in the city yes
terday were much interested in the news
paper dispatches announcing that Governor
Pingree, of Michigan, had convened the
Legislature of that State in special session
for the purpose of having it adopt the In
diana law for the taxation of railroad
property. The assessors generally regard
the tax law of this State as the best in the
country. Under it's operation the percentage
Of the taxes that is borne by personal prop
erty is higher than in the great majority
of States. Some of the assessors, however,
see room for amendments to the law. One
amendment that is being urged is to make
the office of county auditor and treasurer
four year offices, the incumbents not to ba
eligible for election to successive terms.
The result of such an amendment it is said,
would remove all temptation for favoritism
to corporations and the like for political
purposes.

Len Zaiser easily defeated Fred Young in
the wrestling match at Columbia Hall last
night. The men were matched for a side
bet and the receipts. About two hundred
man and boys witnessed the affair. Young
had several pounds the best of it in weight
and decidedly the best of it in strength, but
Zaiser was trained better and had more
skill. Young acted like a man who had
been told he could wrestle and who ex-
pected to live on the reputation he had in
toms of being familiar with the wrestling
game. He went to the mat in the first bout
as soon as the men clinched and laid fiat on
his breast while Zaiser exerted himself to
turn him over. 1t took thirty-two minutes
for ZaiSer to overcome so much dead
weight. In the second bout it took zaiser
only seven minutes to do the trick. Ed
Greasy acted as referee. Sam Murbarger
and his trainer saw the match.
