CO HE great independence debate was
held with closed doors and no rec
a ord of the speeches made was kept,
because it was felt that in case of the
capture of any one of the members of
the body that King George would have
him strung up speedily in case there was
written evidence that he had spoken
against the supremacy of the crown.
For many months the colonists had
been carrying on brave, unequal strug-
gle with the mother country. But that
struggle had been as loyal subjects of the
English king, in arms only as against GER
tain acts of injustice. Now that other
conception, at first passed in hushed
whispers from man to man and later set
ringing through the colonies by the elo-
quence Of Patrick Henry and the logic
Of Thomas Paine, that glorious concep-
ton OF American independence was be-
ing finally weighed il the balance against
the claims of George III.
And yet all knew there were grave
difficulties in the way of independence.
Many would have known it better could
they have stood within the east room of
the old statehouse through the long hours
of that hot July day. There sat the
Continental Congress, now pale faced,
grim and careworn.
Up TO 2 o'clock in the afternoon of that
Fourth of July, 1916, American indepen-
dence hung in the balance. How eyes
and thoughts were turned that summer
day to the old statehouse at Philadel-
phial Would the body Of men gathered
there take the step? Would they dare
to do it?
At the east side of the chamber on
dais sat the presiding officer in his red
leather chair. Before him was a large
mahogany table, on which a massive ink
stand Of silver held a bunch of fresh
quilts. A document then under discus
sion lay beside it. The men who were
to use the quilts that day in making that
document, Americas Magma Charta,"
were grouped about in a semi-circle.
They were not men of the same nation
atty, for among them were two English
men, three rrishmen, two Scotchmen, one

Welshman; the others were born in the
colonies. Not of the same occupation,
either, for "A lawyers, IA farmers, mer-
chants, physicians, ! gospel minister
and 1 manufacturer were there. Not rep
resenting the interest of single State,
but of thirteen separate little govern
nents, torn by longings, fears and dis
sensions. On the right of the chairman
sat Benjamin Franklin, with his soft hair
flowing down his shoulders. Farther on
was Thomas Jefferson, the writer of the
document on the table, now busy taking
notes of the proceedings. Directly in
front sat young Richard Lee, who had
risen days before to read to the hushed
assembly the daring resolution, That
these united colonies are and of right
ought to be free and Independent states,
and that all political connection between
us and the state of Great Britain is and
ought to be totally dissolved"

dered hair In cues knee breeches and
buckles, broad tapped coats and bright
hued waistcoats, sat the men who were
to be known as the signers of the Declar-
alton of Independence.
Inch by inch the ground was gone over,
the chamber now ringing with applause,
now hushed in awe. as fiery words pic
tured the triumph of liberty or warning
voice foretold humiliation and defeat
Then came the moment when the last
word had been spoken. Even the plea
for postponement because ''the people
are not ripe for declaration of indepen-
dence" had been finally crushed by the
answer in the broad Scotch accents of
DIR. Witherspoon: mot ripe, sir! In my
Judgment we are not only ripe, but rot
ting. Almost every colony has dropped
from its parent stem, and your own prov
ince, sir, needs no more sunshine to ma
ture il"

boys, as well as large assortment Of sky
rockets and Roman candles. Some of the
crackers were of the giant variety. He
cautioned his boys not to touch any Of
them until he gave them to them on the
Fourth, and he put them away in the
china closet in a shirt box. Then he went
to the Office. No one but an amateur in
faith would have done such a thing, but
Mr. Podgers thought he knew his boys.
They were sucn good little fellows,
For one whole day the boys withstood
the strain, but the next afieTnco<s they
decided it would do no harm just to peep
into the box. II was wonderful! Such
an array they had not even dreamed Of.
Teddy handled one of the big crackers
carefully.
II wonder how much noise it viii
maker" he said.
"Ohi awful lot" said 10. Won't it
be fun!"
YES" said Ted. Wonder il we
mightn't just try one?'
YES" said 10; you go ahead and do
it. Papa won't care for one"
So Ted got a match, and 10 lighted the
cracker That was all in the china closet.
Lets take it out in the yard" said 10.
But Just then Mr.. Podgers happened 10
come home. The boys heard his tread in
the hall
Put it back, quick exclaimed 10;
maybe papa wouldn't ike il.
So they PAT il back.
In a moment there was a terrific explo-
sion in the chinz closet Then another.
Then the closet seemed to grow too small
for the noise Dishes began 10 dash
around its interior IN Wild ecstasy. It was
Ike a cross between boiler factory and
an earthquake.
Mr.. and Mrs. Podgers rushed to the
scene A few skyrockets were stil gxTat-
ing in confinement.
Two very quiet little boys stood outside
the closet d0et.
Mr.. Podgers stood silent a moment, and
Teddy Ioeke5 up iEf9 his face doubtfully-

Year after year, the respect shown the
Fourth of July is made manifest, and it
is a pleasing, comfortable fact TO know
that this respect shows no sign of abate-
ment as the years roll by. The spirit of
the day is as strong this year of grace
1900 as it was hundred and twenty-four
years ago, and it is interesting to note
that within the past ten years numerous
patriotic societies have sprung into exist
ence end are now growing in both strength
and influence, the aims of which are the
cultivation of the spirit of '76. The Sons
OF the Revolution, the Daughters of the
Revolution, the Colonial Danes, and nu-
merous others of the kind, are now breath
ing the same patriotic atmosphere, and
imparting it to their offspring, that ami
mated the men who brought the Revolu-
ton TO successful close.

VERDICT SET ASIDE

During a lull in the proceedings in
Judge Taylor's court Friday morning
when the court had little breathing
spell he took up the motion for a new
trial in the case of Elizabeth Dick We
William II. Martin. This Is the case in
which the lady got verdict against
Martin for $40 for assault and seduc-
tion. Attorneys Sterling and Spon-
seller for the defense asked for a new
trial claiming that the verdict was not
sustained by the evidence, that the
verdict was not in harmony with the
answers to interrogatories given, and
that there was error in the trial. Judge
Taylor passed on the motion and up
held 1t setting aside the verdict and
granting a new trial in the case. The
whole ground will have to be gone over
again now in the court.

QUAIL CROP
Is Likely to Be Very Large II
Dog Trainers Will Be
Careful.

Everything Is favorable to splendid
crop of quail this season and the game
birds are increasing rapidly and If un-
molested there will be an abundance
this fall. But new menace has sprung
up and one that Is pernicious and un-
sportsmanlike which will work much
evil to the birds If it's kept up.
Parties have gotten into the habit on
Sundays especially of taking young
dogs to the fields and breaking them
in by practicing" on quail. They in this
manner disturb many nests, frighten off
the old mother birds, now trying to raise
broods and as the old birds will not re-
turn to the nest when it is disturbed and
especially after a rat terrier, pup or
any other kind Of a dog has stuck his
nose into it, many nests will not be
fruitful and SO many birds lost forever.
A smart game warden could get many
good fee in these days of ruthless
violation.
