A "Heathenish" Celebration.
r of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
With the approach of the Fourth arises
the usual question: Should the firing of pis-
tolls and firecrackers. etc. be stopped?
Surely SO. Making a noise is the relic of
barbarism We send missionaries to China
to teach the chinese our civilization and per-
nit in our own country the most heathenish
practice. that of celebrating by making a
great noise making the day horrible and
the night hideous with one continuous roar
and bang, endangering property and life.
It teaches our children selfishness, in that
one day in every year must be set apart
in which they can indulge in amusing
themselves at the expense of their elders,
and that 1t is the duty OF their WORKOUT
parents to devote their entire holiday
to their amusement. Fireworks originated
in China The display of them is still prac-
ticed in that country, and is almost a reli-
gious ceremony, for priests and people
unite in the banging and firing to make
such q racket as to scare away the ugly
dragon in the sky, which has come to
swallow up the earth and all of the poor
Cinnamon in the bargain. the dragon being
the total eclipse of the SUM- To think of
intelligent American citizens initiating such
a custom is humiliating 1t has come to
a pretty pass that the number of accidents
is so great resulting from holiday cele-
bration in our Christian land that physi-
clans think 1t necessary to publish RENE
dies prior to the said holiday for the heal
ing of wounds from explosion of fireworks,
in order that the wounded may receive i'm
mediate aid. and not be compelled to await
the assistance of the doctor.
Why not teach our children to enjoy a
quiet day in the country, in our parks
where they can listen to the music of our
bands and enjoy the cool breezes and rest
ing Of a hot sultry day? Let US hope that
by the time another Fourth has rolled around
parents may have taught their children
that sweet unselfshness which ought TO
belong to civilized nation, and that peace

HARD TO FILL HIS PLACE.
High Esteem in Which the Late DR..
Richardson Was Held.

1t will probably ne a month before any
action is taken by the Interior Department
or the board of visitors of the Government
Hospital for the Insane toward filling the
position Of superintendent made vacant by
the death of DR.. A. r. Richardson, Satur-
day night. The position is SO difficult to
fill that the board of visitors and the sec
rotary intend to take plenty OF time to
consider the matter. DR.. Richardson was,
regarded a remarkable man by his SUI
perior officers in the government service,
and 1t is not believed by any of them that
they will ever be able to find another man
who combines the wide knowledge Of his
profession as an alienist with the admins
trative qualities possessed by the late SUI
perintendent The department congratu-
lates itself that most of the buildings
which were provided for through the per-
sonal efforts of DIR. Richardson more than
any one else are now in the course OF con-
struction and are in such shape that the
work can go on just as DIR. Richardson
planned.

The "ArnOld"
Knit Night Drawers.

The rapidly growing demand for
these health protecting, worry saw
ing garments attests their popu-
larity.
For a warm weather sleeping suit
for the child the Arnold Knit
Fabric eight weight is preferable
to flannel or muslin in every way.
Shall we tell you why?
The arnold" Goods are soft,
elastic, easily washed, will not
shrink. Their porosity allows the
exhalations of the skin to pass off
freely, a very important item for a
sleeping garment.
