Kenneth Hutchinson OF Boston is ]
guest at the Knutsford and Is royally
geared up TO pauiosic pitch on the
Fourth. In a general way Mr.. Hutchin-
son saId:
The Fourth of July In Boston is g
great day Invariably the city dads ap-
propriaIe 10000 good American dollars
Tor good American fireworks and the mil.
lionaIrc and mendlcant alike get out and
howl themselves hourse over the uproar-
Boston without fireworks on the
Fourth would be like Boston Withoul
beans, or Beacon street without 'culohaw.
Early on the third OF the month, the
Ancient and Honorable Artillery get IN
readiness for the parade and the Parker
house beefsteak-
The Parker house becfsteak? Why, l
supposed everybody knew what that
meant In 1870 Roman Catholic priest
was a guest at the Parker house and
asked for steak for his breakfast IL
came. but was not cooked 10 suit him
and the proprietor, being near, 1oculariy
told the priest TO cook II to suit himself.
The priest took the dare and went into
the Kitchen and broiled the same piece
OF meat over again, tho proprietor ana
cooks ALL looking on, astonished, when
the steak was done the proprietor said
10 the priest:
OfIer Was Accepted.
My friend. I'll give you 5000 a year
to do nothing else than broil steak for
my house
THE priest took up the offer and from
that day to this no gourmet ever leaves
or, as some call 1t. a School street chick
en- The Ancient and Honorable Ar
tiilery never fail 10 get Parker house
steak on the Fourth.
"On the old Common the fireworks
are sent up and balloon aSccnSions call
the crowd together, and It is a crowd
worth going a long journey to see. The
Goldfish aristocracy and the men who
catch Goldfish elbow each other and when
a great bomb is fired In the air all cry;
'Oh-o-o-ohn and when 1t bursts with n
blaze Of glory, all cry Ah-a-a-a-ah!
The only way you can tell who the peo,
pie are is by their comments. One VIII
say: TN be ding swatted, but that was
a corker. eh?' Another Will say: The
line OF trajectory described by the as
cendng projectile was segment OF
large circle and the luminous burst was
transcendcntly beautiful! The first
speaker looks at the late speaker. and
IN utter amazement, cries: 'Aw, come
on
Bunker Hill monument comes In for
an annual pilgrimage, ana the true
Bostonan will cumb the 220 circular steps
and look out over the Lynn and Revere
beach views, and feel he has done his
patriotic duty Boston spends more for
fireworks than would feed her poor for
a month, but II is her one pardonable
extravaganza, and no man has dared TO
rise and object thereto.
Christian Science Temple
"Thc new temple? Yes, Mrs Eddy
now has a beautiful temple, and the cult
of Christian Science surely grows strong
er in Boston. l do not understand II
myself, and take no palms to try TO. 1t
appears to get most recruits from the
educated church membership. and II has
come TO be a power TO be reckoned with
in the political world
God bless Salt Lake, say l. / have
been alliRg for years and find no relief
anywhere but here. The altitude Is just
right, and the people grow upon one.
The courtesy OF the average man to the
stranger is noticeable.
'Our streets? Why, sir. / can only
Judge your streets by Boston streets in
the matter of cleanliness and by that
standard you have the cleanest streets
OF any city in the Union excepting Los
Angeles
II do not understand the true inward
ness Of Mormonism. but The Tribune is
grand textbook and | glory In its out
and-out uncompromising hostility to IT
all. Smoot may come or Smoot may go,
but II not checked by some power the
cause of Mormonism will go on forever
At close range, We get a very different
view Of the case from that which oc-
casonally gets into Associated Press tele-
grams. The See American First move
ment will be great educator OF Eastern
people on this question"
