A PRETTY GOOD FOURTH
jolly Crowd Of Country People Fill
our Streets aad Grove.

our Streets and Grove.
The Fourth Of July has come
and gone again with two OF three
unusual features as to Forest City.
First. there were only two ma
tives of the Indian Reservation
present; one of them being Mrs.
H. Z. Latferty. who with
her husband and family. is
q resident of our town. ami the
other Mr.. Ambrose Truversie, Sr.,
who had q horse in the races. 1t
showed how completely the In
dians had gone off to their own
celebration ON Virgin creek, and
also the river and other traffic that
our merchants let go away from
them.
Second, the latent power OF
ability that our citizens possess to
get up good celebration. Moth
ing. whatever-but little talk
was done towards organizing or
providing for anything till the last
m;nute, viz: the evening of Tues
day, the 3rd. Then only a dozen
or SD persons met OH the sidewalk
and. appointed committee of
three to collect money for prize
winners and to manage the sports.
This c.,mmittee-Messrs. Ei,lam,
Cooper. collected in half
an hour SlS.25. Out of this was
paih $40 to the winning base bali
club and - to the foot racers.
The games commenced about
3p. m. ON the fiat at the upper
town, with the base halt game,
by the following players, resulting
in ast.nre Of IL to = in favor of
Laurel:
Laurel-Messrs. Carter,
Ed. Sutton,
Joe Briscne,
Matt. Wagner
Jos. Otto
JAS. .Doslin
Andrew Person
Mamie Ripley
Agency-Gettysburg ct al
Messrs. Hood
Eisenhart
Steiner
Ted Lake
ID Mckay
Moxey Risin.
Hurley
Hoffman
Oliver
Hewitt Turner umpired the
game and Charley Wales was
score. keeper.
The horse races came off next.
all half-mile dashes, ON the public
highway. The first race vas he.
tween Frank Aldrich's big grey
Tyr old, rode by Duncan Mckay,
and Scotty Urquhart's black PAGER,
rode by Clarence Ellis. The latte,
easily won, but he didn't have very
much space behind him to spare.
The next race was by the winner
and one of John Michael's big
hays. This was also won by the
PAGER.
The third was by three ponies,
Ambrose Traversie Sr.'s sorrel
Charley Kula's and Webb's
which was won by Traversie's.
Tho only other races or games
sas q foot race at 8 pm. ut tn,
lOwer town. The first race, Ion
yards, WAS run by Aud. Person
JAS. .J0slin and another part,
whose name We have failed t.
learn. the first named win
ming first prize Of $3, and
the next, second prize, 81
The winners then ran
second race for wager of 81
raised by the Laurel folks. Th'
first time It resulted in a tie, ant
then Joslin won by about lively
inches.
The fireworks and dance in tn,
evening were enjoyed by a larg'
and appreciative crowd. Laure
and Potter were most largely rep
resented during the day, Gettys
burg and Agency next.
And thus closed 18th of Jul
with q good crowd. no especial dis

our citizens. We are thinking
now that, after this. if our citizens
should only make one half
of the preparations that other
towns do. they would be hand
somely rewarded.

There was II large contrast he
tween the public order at the
upper town and that at the lower
town. AT the upper town there
was a beer-drinking stand. which
was putronized almost exclusively
bv the horse racing fraternity.
And did you ever see such com
hination without profanity, vul-
garity aud other daredevil Ian
gnage which NO citizen who re-
Spects either himself or his country
would tolerate!
The dilemma is up to either the
horse racing fraternity. or the
saloon fraternity. to observe the
moral law.
Is it not possible that the 4th of
July is a Sabbath day that this
nation must protect from profani.
ty and dishonor. if it would pre-
serve its liberties
