Hearst's Chicago American.

The entrance of w. r. Hearst in
to the arena of Chicago journalism
has created sensation. Hearst's
Chicago American has been a sue
cess from the start, and from its
first issue took up the cause of Chi
cago's $4,000 locked-out working
men. 1t will quit this one battle
only when it has won it-then take
up new one. Its circulation has
come toward by leaps and bounds,
for the true democracy of Chicago
and the great west has long waited
for an aggressive champion at this
nations political storm. center, and
they now have it in Hearst's Chica-
go American Unlike other Chica-
go newspapers, the American illus
trates it's principal news features
each day, and its Sunday edition is
a marvel OF beauty and literary
merit. The American is the exact
double OF Mr.. Hearst's New York
Journal-the highest, foremost type
of an American newspaper. The
cartoon service of the famous Dav-
export is also one of the big fea-
lures of the American, and the edi-
torial page simply impresses the
reader with the fact that the new
journal is all that it's name implies,
strictly American.
With Mr.. Hearst there is abso
lutely no such word as fail, and it is
needless to add that his coming has
set new standard of excellence for
Chicago journalism. Mr.. Hearst
creates and maintains this standard
while his competitors strive to at
tain it.

New Fireworks.

While there are a number of new
things in fireworks this year. there are
few original ideas. most of the changes
being in ampli6cations and improve
ments over old lines. A great many
Roman candles. bouquets. etc, are now
fitted with wooden handle at the
lower end. This is good idea. as it
does away with the possibility Of re-
ceiving the charge up the coat sleeve
in case of the candle blowing out Of
the wrong end, an occurrence which
used occasionally to give the interest
Of diversity to the evening festivities.
Some very large Roman candles are
also arranged SO as to stick into the
ground. They discharge great yellow
stars of fire. filing the atmosphere
with brilliant food of light. and are
not safe to hold in the hand.- Boston

Continental celebration..

Always, even from the earliest years,
there was the noise Of guns. and the
salute Of 13 by the cannon. II the
wives Of the officers were present. an
elaborate party or dance was usually
arranged. In many Of these celebra-
tions the wives Of Generals Knox and
Greene were leaders, and sometimes
they even prevailed upon the great
Washington himself to open the ball.
For example, in l777. at Morristown,
every soldier was ordered an extra gill
Of rum. and there was celebration by
the feu de .joie.

MEMORABLE FouRTHs.
Famous Celebrations of the Glorious
Day of Freedom.

Famous Celebrations of the Glorious
Day of Freedom.
The most memorable Fourth was of
course that historic day when Sc men,
assembled in the hall Of the statehouse
at Philadelphia, decided after hot
and stormy debate that the 13 colonies
Of America were and Of right ought to
be free and independent Tne first
celebration took place in Philadelphia
four days after the adoption Of the
Declaration. That particular Sth Of
July OF the year 1776 is described by
one of the immortal signers Of the
Declaration as being "a warm, sun
shiny morning" and it was in the yard
Of the statehouse that John Nixon read
the new and original Declaration. The
great assemblage Of people gave three
repeated huzzas," we are told, and the
kings coat Of arms was torn down.
The proclamation was read again be-
fore each of the five battalions on the
common of the old Quaker City, and
in the evening bonfires were lighted,
bells were rung and cannon were dis
charged.
In New York the next day, July 8,
Washington himself took part in the
celebration Of the first Fourth. The
Declaration was Sead in the presence
Of the army, ana the populace gave
vent to their feelings in cannon firing,
bell ringing and bonfire making. En-
thusiasm, in fact. ran SO high that the
people tore down the statue Of King
George III from its place In Bowling
Green and beheaded and melted the
! same, much to the satisfaction Of the
soldiery, whom only stern discipline
had deferred from so doing.
/, There was no telegraph in those ear
| " days, and it took the good news some
| time to reach Boston. 1t was the 18tt
of July before the Intelligence wa'
brought by messenger, and, though
somewhat belated In celebrating Amer
ica's first independence day, those ear
ly Bostonians were none the less en-
thusiastic at the thought Of havin,
thrown off the burdensome Englisl
i yoke. They had no statue Of Kim
4 George to break up. but did the mex
best thing by tearing down the liol
4 and unicorn from the east wing Of tn
\ statehouse, and in the evening ther

Revolving Rockets.

One style of fireworks which is new
here, but has been made for some time
by the Chinese in a modified form. is
the tourbllion or revolving rocket.
This is rocket head firing from both
ends and balanced by fat wing
placed transversely across its center.
1t is placed on smooth piece of board
and lighted from fuse in the center.
The fire from the two ends, being in n
diagonal direction, gives it rotary
motion, and the wing lifts it in the air.

signing the Declaration.

The resolution Of independence was
passed on July 2. the Declaration ac-
cepted and passed on the 4th.
1t was printed on a large sheet OF pa
per, presumably during the evening Of
the 4th and the morning Of the 9Th.
and on that day was given to the world
bearing, as :ttestation, the names of
John Hancock, the president. and
Charles Thompson. the secretary. of
the continental congress. 1t was 'offi-
cially" read to the public not on the
4th, but probably on July 8. The
engrossed parchment. as we now see 1t,
signed by the immortal So, was not
ready for signature until Aug. 2, when
it was laid on the speakers table, when
it was generally signed.
