Speech at Schenley Park.

The President said:
Mr.. Mayor and you, my fellOw-citiZens,
my fellOw-Americans. men and women and
western Pennsylvania: You have just lis
tened to the reading of the great document
which signals our entry into the field of
nations 126 years ago That entry was
but the promise which had to be made good
by the performance of those men and their
children and their childrens children.
Words are good if they are backed up
by deeds, and only so. (Applause)
The declaration continues to be read with
pride by us year after year, and stands as
a symbol of hope for the peoples of all the
world because its promise was nrade good
because its words were supplemented by
deeds; because after the men who signed
it and upheld 1t had done their work, the
men who came again after them, genera
tiOn by generation, did their work in turn.
(Applause) The Declaration Of Independ-
ence had to be supplemented in the first
place by that great instrument Of cOnstruc-
tive and administrative statesmanship-the
Constitution. under which we now live. The
document promulgated in 1ISS, under which
Washington became our first President
supplemented, necessarily supplemented
the Declaration of 1776. We showed in the
revolution that We had a right to be free;
we showed when we constructed the more
perfect union of the old confederacy that
we knew how to use that right as it needed
q be used (ADplauSe)

WITH PYROTECHNICS.
Patriots Who Began to Celebrate
Early Last Evening.

Many patriotic people, men, women and
children, who had arranged to celebrate the
glorious fourth with pyrotechnics were un-
able to wait until O'clock this morning,
the time fixed for the suspension of the law
They set off firecrackers and other exulo-
slNes last night and during the early hours
cf the morning, but not to the extent Of
annoying others. In some sections of the
clsy the police were active and many ar
rests were made. Their victims included
small children. haif-grown boys and men
Several Cinnamon were also among the
number.
After o'clock this morning the freedom
OF the city was extended to those who want
ed to use the more harmless explosives, the
police taking care to protect the neighbor-
moods in which the hospitals are located as
wei as localities in which people are dan
gerously i'll. 1t was Majo Sylvesters de-
sire that his policemen encourage the use of
the streets and sidewalks when using explo-
slNeS In order to prevent fires. BOYS found
IN inciQfures were advised to move to places
where there would be less danger
The Officers were cautioned to enforce the
law IN all cases where persons We're found
using dangerous weapons, large cannons or
bombs.
During the forenoon small boy named
Arthur Galbraith was found with a twenty
two-caliber revolver, and Policeman Nebb
of the eight precinct arrested him. Carry
ing concealed weapons was the charge pre-
ferred against him and he was held for
trial. In South Washington William b. Col
Inns, twenty-eight years old. was arrested
for an alleged violation of the police regu-
lations relating to explosives. 1t is charged
that he placed dynamite bomb on a street
car track.

Few Casualties and but One Fire.

There had been but few casualties and
only one fire reported by the police up to
the noon hour. Kenneth Whitaker, sixteen
years old, a messenger for one of the tele-

parently only slight. He was handling the
pistol when the weapon was accidentally
discharged, the leaden missile entering his
right hand The boys home is in Anacos-
tia. He was given surgical treatment at
the Emergency Hospital
The first fire of the day occurred at the
government printing office. 1t was about
9:15 O'Clock when the blaze started in the
bay window Of the building occupied as the
carpenter shop, at - II street The fire
engines were called out, but the flames
were eXtinguished before the arrival of the
firemen.
Last night William Z. Scott. colored
twenty nine years old, of 1857 Ohio avenue
shot himself in the hand. He was handling
a revolver when the weapon was accident
ally discharged. The Emergency Hospital

almost got her into trouble in
several valley towns, is contin-

San Leandro, Dec. 1o.-Con-
siderable satisfaction is felt
among the women of this cit

Miss Lottie Tillotson $25 tor

Thayer Is at Dawson.

An exchange gives the follow
ing portions of a letter written BY
Ed Thayer, from Dawson City,
to Billy Wright, of Portland.
Both parties are former residents
of Corvallis:
The weather in Dawson Janu.
ary 2nd was all that could be
wished for at this season of the
year. They had cold spell TO,
a couple of days in the latte,
part of December, when the
thermometer went down to os
degrees below zero. Since then
it moderated considerably, Sc
that the mercury stands pretty
steady at IS degrees below,
which is considered very reason
able and pleasant weather.
Among other items sent by
Thayer is one relating to the
robbery of gambling house,
where two or three men went
in and stole 81, 400 of the
games money and escaped, SC
far as heard from.
Thayer says that in about two
years more Dawson's star o1
glory will have set, as by that
time it will be an easy matter to
get into the country at a cem-
paratively small expense, and the
country will be overrun with
people who have just money
enough to reach the Yukon.
That will cause a reduction Of
wages. Those who are in there
now are preparing themselves
against such evil day.

On February 9th and 14th the
third annual convention of horti-

During the two days session there
will be entertaining talks and lee

doubt be most instructive. Here

good attendance this year in all
probability. The railroad cempa

A. C. Nelson, of Wisconsin, has

his i,5C0-acre farm near Junction
City. The transaction represents
$50, 900. The land was purchased
for colony of Danish folks from
Wisconsin who will locate upon it
in the near future. The new
corners will engage largely in dairy
ing, and it probable that a cream
cry will be established. Mr.. Neil

the farm will be divided into small
tracts and every acre bt made to
yield all that is possible. A snail
portion will be set aside for a
church.
