week ago and kept getting closer until
last night, when it was upon the public
with all the noise and alarm with which
the Juvenile patriots could invest It..
They had perfect understanding Of
the fact that It was the eve Of the
Fourth, and while their conception OF
how to celebrate the occasion did not
harmonic with the ideas Of nervous
women and cross men on the street,
they were oblivious TO all that, and
they shot of their giant crackers and
small cannons and laughed to see them
Jar the sensibillties Of the startled
passers-by No matter what the small
boy does he always has a number OF
sympalhlzers from the ranks OF the
elder class And II is not surprising
mat In engaging In anything with such
enthusiasm as they - In a Fourth of
guy celebration on a juvenile basis,
mat many Of the men should take
hand with them. Thus while the pyro-
technics, cannonadng and general
who.op-it-up Of last night attracted all
We boys In this section OF the universe

next year, OF Responded toa cail- from

GREATNESS on his golden words. The
inspiring strains OF martial airs were
hasbanded under the deafening boom OF
every species of Fourth OF July explo-
sive.
The day was perfect, and while the
great crowds that thronged the ball
games, Calders, Lagoon, Saltair and the
salt Palace thought the day was hot
they did not have the temerty to COM
plain In the light Of the terrible reports
from the East. A most delightful
mountain breeze played over the city
all day, and thus did nature generous
ly keep her fan going and no one suf-
fered from the heat While there was
no public demonstration to demand the
presence Of the leading citizens, all OF
them closed their places OF business and
many OF them We're seen at the places
OF amusement In the evening.
The multitude that diffused itself
among the resorts would have pro-
duced the conviction that all the pleas.

would have been startling revelation.
This morning, long before the solar
rays tinted the mountain tops there
was almost n general exodus from the
city into the canyons. City Creek,
Cottonwood, Emigration and other eel
ebrated mountain retreats were sought
by the young and old, where fishing
and picnicking, together with other
pleasant features Of mountain out

AN AMPLE AND SWEET REVENGE

AN AMPLE AND SWEET REVENGE
 A young Englishman who had been
 repeatedly and unnecessarily annoyed by the St. Malo custom-h house officials
 made up his mind to get even with them. The last time he had crossed he had brought a ferret over with him,
 and minute or so before landing he Transferred the creature to a black bag, which he carried with extreme care and an evident desire not to attract at
 tention. This immediately fetched one of the douaniers, and he swooped down on 1t with joyful alacrity. Our young Englishman pretended not to under stand the official, until the Frenchman made his meaning clear by unmistak- able signs. Then he slowly and reluc- tantly unlocked the bag The douanier plunged in his hand, and-but my pen
 (let me put 1t down to my pen) refuses to- adequately describe the dramatic scene that ensued. Suffice it to say that the bare recital of it was balm to my wounded spirit. I only hope it was our friend at the custom-house who made the ferret's acquaintance. Re yenge is sweet.-"Continenta Chit Chat"

She came to this city with her mother and a brother. Her mother died many years ago in the New Haven hospital, and her brother went to sea and was never heard of af- rewards.
