GALLANT BOYS IN BLUE.

The following is the latest production OF
Shafter Howard Of San Francisco. 1t will
be sung on the Fourth Of July:
There are many sturdy fellows who have
sailed upon the sea,
Who nave tonight for every country
'ne.th the sun;
But a drawer and a better lot there surely
cannot Be
Than the boys who fought the fight in
sixty.one.
The Northern men in blue were dressed, the
Seatbern wore the gray.
They stroye for what they thought WA
right and true;
And the difference in their uniforms, it mat
tiers not to-day.
For every mothers son now wears the
blue.
CHORUS.
Those gallant boys in blue,
We know what they can do
When their country calls them forth to
war;
ThsyIl be ready to a man.
For fighting In the van,
With the Stars and Stripes to lead them
on before.
About a hundred years ago we sent some
ships to sea-,
And we showed Johnny Bull q thing or
two;
Ths men-o'-war and privateers Of Uncle
Sans aasee
Were m nned by jolly tars who wore the
blue.
One and all were handy men with cutlass and
with gun,
They fought like demons in a fray;
And the flag that few above them, it is the
self same one
Our gallant tars are sailing meath to-day.
Those gallant boys in blue.
We knew what they would do,
When their country called them forth to
For they drove the Dons OF Spain,
From the broad Atlantic main

the fore.
1t was in the year Of ninety-eight. upon the
first of May.
And just before the rising OF the aun.
That the Yankee feet so trim and neat, sailed
up Manila bay,
The men on board were ready every one;
The orders to the Admiral were plain as plain
could bs,
And we've given as the enemy drew near,
''To find the Spanish ships, and to sink 'sm
in the sea-"
Then every Jack aboard sent up a cheer.
CHORUS.
Those gallant boys in blue,
They fred with aim SO true.
As they stood behind the guns that day;
That the Spanish ships were sunk,
Or converted into junk,
With the Stars and Stripes a.hying Ger
