His Earnestness.

His EarneSrneSS.
What is known as the millionaire's
train,' running from Morristown, n. J.,
to Hoboken, carries a number of men
known to the world of finance. The
conductor is David Sanderson, to
whom his passengers, grateful for his
uniform good nature and efficiency,
have just presented handsome watch
and a purse of gold. They insisted on
his making a speech and Sanderson
did so, winding up in this way: Some
people wonder why it is l have had
such great success in life; why I have
had no trouble with nobody. Even the
other conductors don't understand it
and they often ask me how get along
with the DRINKS on my train, an just

SERVED AS MESSENGER BOY.
Congressman Hardwick Mistaken for
One of the House PAGES.


Congressman Hardwick, the boyish-
looking man from Georgia, has had
the experience that has befallen other
youthful statesmen. He was stand
ing close to the speakers desk one day
when one of the reading clerks, mis-
taking him for a page, said: Run and
bring me that paper that is lying on
Gen. Grosvenor's desk" Smiling at
the clerks error, the Georgian did as
requested. Half an hour later the
chair recognized ''the gentleman from
Georgia" and to the surprise and
modification of the reading clerk, Mr.
Hardwick, the beardIess boy, who
had performed messenger duty a short
time previous, arose and delivered a
long speech on the race problem in the
south.

How It Was Celebrated in Town and at Several
Places in the Country.
1t is said that about eighteen hun
dred people participated in the Tenino
celebration, Monday. Four carloads
of people went from this city and re-
port having had splendid time. The
programme consisted OF parade, with
the usual floats, including q Liberty
car, Reading of Declaration by Miss
Belle Campbell, Orations by I. F.
Mentzer and Prof. Steele. clambake,
horse-races, ball game and fireworks.
A very pleasing celebration was like
wise held at Rainier, at which Lawyer
Mitchell delivered an Grafton which
abounded in patriotic pyrotechnics and
eloquence of high order. The other
exercises consisted of sports. for which
prizes were distributed.
Olympia had no regular celebration.

having a couple of boat-loads and
several car loads of her people absent.
but if noise is an indication of enjoy
ment, lacked nothing of having "high
old time" The popping Of crackers
and the thunder of bombs was heard
all day, but the "dandy" plaything of
the time, for large and small boys,
was the newly.discovered fact that
much louder and better fusilade could
be obtained by placing a combination
OF sulphur and potash on the car.tracks
and await the passage of the carwheels
over it. This substance was placed at
intervals OF a few feet in little piles
and when exploded by pressure of the
wheels, produced succession of re-
verheratiOns equaling the ordinary
cracker or the discharge of artillery,
in proportion to the size of the deposit.
When placed at regular intervals it
resembled the fire of a backwoods
platoon on parade, and created the
most hilarious enjoyment from the
crowds which lined the streets to wit.
ness the form OF pyrotechnics. About
all the local supply OF ingredients for
this novel diversion were exhausted at
the close of the day, and crackers and
bombs which had fallen to a decided
discount long before that time, nstur-
ally recovered their prestige as
means for producing loud noise and
sulphurous smell. At night quite

rockets we're sent skywards and several
fire balloons were launched in the
empysean blue as Night drew her
sable curtains around. Comparatively
Those who staid at home seem to
have enjoyed themselves quite as
we'll as if programme had been
arranged, and probably nearly all went
to bed without that "tired feeling"
which seems to be the inevitable pen
atty for much-excitement. 1t might
have been better, however, had our
people arranged an oldtime, one.day
celebration, and kept our people home
as we'll as provided entertainment for
such guests as always look to Oily mpia
as the place for true and rational en-
joyment.

her body was not recovered until after
the firemen had extinguished the

A thing that would have been i'm.

provided for the pyrotechnic display.
An eminence was selected for the exhi.

crowd back had been stretched. Sew
eral carloads OF fireworks were piled
inside tho ropes. Van Allan Smith
had just begun to set off the fireworks,
when sparks set fire to the stores. In
an instant the entire enclosure was .

in every direction. There were prob.
ably 10000 people in the near vicinity,
