Moral Of Fourth Of July Accidents.

the Chicago Tribune is advocating
the total adjustment OF the toy pis-
: tol, tirecrackers, bombs, and all other
forms OF internal, noisc-producing,
death dealing explosives, as part of
the paraphernala OF Fourth of July
celebrations. For a term OF years
that paper has published statistical re-
ports of the approximate number OF
deaths aud serious accidents occurring
/ during the observance OF our national
anniversary, all over the country.
These casualties have from year TO
year reached into the hundreds and
thousands and the indications are
that the incoming reports, when the
grand total is completed, Will break
the record OF all former time.
1t is logically assumed that this
fearful increase OF the evil is largely
due 10 the warlike age in which we
are living. Particular stress is laid
upon the mischief resulting from the
handling Of the toy pistol by small
boys, who have no adequate concep-
ton of the danger that turks in their
playthings.
So far as reports have come in since
twelve o'clock Thursday night, OF last
week, the casualties due to the toy
pistol tiend number 259, counting ac-
tual deaths and those cases OF lock jaw
from jagged wounds which are as yet
lndeterminate as to their ultimate re-
suit. In some sections, whole pla-
toons of spectators consisting of men,
women and children, have been killed,
or miserably wounded, by the acciden-
tai igniting of piles of fireworks ex-
posed for sale III open shops. In one
instance fool was blown to atoms
because he thought he knew how to
handle a big cannon, when he knew
nothing about the business.
In little country hamlet where the
people could not afford the expense OF
importing a real live cannon from the
city, they marched to the village
blacksmith's shop and resorted to the
old folklore expedient of firing the
big anvil. All went merry as a MARI
age bell until the last discharge when
the iron plug was driven in too tight
and the anvil exploded into fragments
killing and mangling men and women
and making good angels of little
children.
Then there was the rocket, whose
blazing stick fell upon the roof Of
house and burned out whole neigh
borhood; just what would have hap
pened to Mills & Cowles' store, in this
city, had that burning missile which
ignited the roof been left to finish its
diabolical work.
Another narrowing case was that of
the death of woman in a runaway
carriage, the horses having been
frightened by a firecracker thrown
under their hoofs by a careless boy.
The Tribune is right; and every
newspaper should take up the cry of
total adjustment of the present in
sane method of ushering in and cele.
brating our nations birthday by dam
gerous fireworks.
The narrow escape from general
confagration from the ignition of
fireworks on the corner of Washing.
and Fourth streets, last week, should
be a pointer to our City Council in
framing stringent ordinance regulat-
ing the exposure of fireworks on sale
within the crowded business limits of
our city. Will our Council heed the
warning? 1t remains to be seen.

facilities for handling grain been equal

1t is quite too late in the day for

the Capitol premises. In fact this
consideration was used as one OF the
inducements held out to legislators to
secure their votes for the final passage

DISLOCATED HIS SHOULDER
Jack Moffat's Old Trouble Recurs and
He Loses His Fight With
George Gardner.

San Francisco, Cal, July 5.--The fight
between Jack Moffatt of Chicago and
George Gardner of Lowell Mass, yes
terday afternoon came to an abrupt end
in the third round. when for the third
time Moffatt's left arm failed. The fight
up to the third round was slightly in
Gardeners favor. In the first round he
had knocked Moffatt down with a right
swing on the jaw and Jack took the
count. He got up strong, however. and
immediately landed hard left on Gard
ner's face. They fought fast throughout
the round, Gardner doing the most work
at long range, while Moffatt showed
the better at mitigating. There was a
g,eat deal of clinching and in-fighting.
In the second round Moffatt opened
with hard left on the face, followed
Ly a clinch. When they We're separated
by the referee Gardner rushed Moffatt
to the ropes, landed a left and right on
the face. A clinch followed and both
men fought hard on the body. Gardner
jabbed his left into Moffatt's face twice
and Jack responded with a hard left
hook to the head. D..
Gardner did all the forcing in the
refund, his long reach enabling him to
land his left on Moffats face quite
frequently. MOffatt, however, fought in
close and avoided a great many of Gard
ners blows. The honors in this round
We're also even.
At the beginning of the third round
Moffatt made rush for Gardner and
swung a hard left, which went wild. This
was the blow that put his left shoulder
out of place. He dropped to one knee,
his arm hanging limp at his side. Gard
ner went to his corner and the referee

and called for a doctor.
Two physicians responded and Moffatt,
suffering great pain. was led to his dress

that he did not feel as If he was entitled
