THE NATIONS BIRTH DAY
A Great Celebration Next Tuesday 70
Wind Up With . Free Ball.


From early morning until late at
night something Of interest will be 90
ing on all the time. Mingled with usu-
al events Of the Fourth Of July will b.
novelties which can not fail to be enter
tanning.
The musical program in Marion
Square il more than usually rich in
Guiding the Salem Choral Society,
and the Noyello Quartette, of Monmouth, I,
as well ~ the sweetest singer in the
Northwest, Mrs. Hinges.
The exercises in Marion Square in
clude, besides the music, the invocation
by Rev W. G. Kantner, an oration
by Hon. J. A. Jeffreys, scholarly gen
tleman and fine speaker, and prob
ably some informal talk from others.
The street parade will include many
new features and IL calculated 10 please by
its novelty and excellence rather than
by excessive length.
In the parade one float will carry the
Goddess Of Liberty, represented by Miss
Ieona Paine. With her, instead Of the
states Of the Union, will be Cuba, Porto
Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines, rep
resented by beautiful young ladies.
This will be something new and signi-
ficant innovation.
Miss Alice Davenport, will represent
the Angel Of Peace, whom we would all
be pleased TO see.
The other floats will contain novel
ideas which have been worked out by
the committee, Of which Mrs. Olive S.
England is chairman, and will be sur
prise 10 the spectators.
The firing Of the salutes will take
place in Wilson Avenue, and will be
under charge Of Ben Taylor, who knows
more about firing salutes than any other
man in Salem lie will also manipulate
the fireworks, which will be- displayed
In Wilson Avenue, where every one can
get a good view.
After much tribulation, the commit
tee has al last succeeded in finding a
baseball nine who dare 10 go up against
the Chemawas. It is the Manillas and
is composed Of picked players OF this
city. A hotly contested game will be
seen, and the Indian boys may not have
II all their own way, after all.
An innovation, for Salem, and one
which will he highly appreciated by all
who have light fantastic toes which they
know how TO trip, will be the grand free
ball at night. This will be held in the
top story Of the city hall, room 75xls0
feet, where there will be plenty Of room
for all 10 have good time Backen-
sto's orchestra will furnish the music,
and this is n guarantee of superior ex-
cellence. lsadore Greenhaum 'has this
branch Of the celebration in charge, and
he will act ~ chief floor manager, as.
sisted by Ira Hamilton, Bert Lynch and
Others.
All programs will appear in full in
Mondays Journal, the details not being
fully formulated ~ yet in some cases.
