celebrate too much for the glorlf1ca-
ton Of the greatest day In the his
tory of our union. When I was a lit
tie boy looked forward to the Fourth
Of July with all OF the pleasurable an
ticipation of childhood. and saved my
pennies from Christmas time to Inde-
pendence day to buy the wherewithal
for the fitting and noisy celebration.
] think however. my most exciting
Fourth was In the Cuban campaign OF
1898. The morning after the Santiago
battle an orderly brought me a pa.
per containing original doggerel in
seven heroic verses. They were en-
titled: "Phat Gen. Shafter Wint AZ

BY I. c. HARBAUGH

Old Glory is waving on land and on
sea,
The hope OF the Nation. the pride Of
the free.
Our fleets bear it outward to harbors
afar.
And dear to the eye is the CLEAN Of
each star:
In beauty it floats over hemlock and
pine.
Adown TO our orange-fringed tropical
line
Dur fathers beneath 1t were willing
to die.
And new luster ii gets on the Fourth
of JUL.
The Old Continentals. methinks that
they come
Out OF the past al the tap Of the drum.
Their swords are aioft and their bay
onets shine
And Washington rides at the head Of
the line;
There Sumter and Schuyler are fight
ing again.
And yonder is charging Mad An
thony" Wayne
They fought and they fell meath the
Unions blue sky.
And gave to Columbia her Fourth Of

Dur eagles a-~inz. OF his grandeur un-

For never by foe has his plumase
been torn:
md woe to the hand that would ,etter
his flight.
Or sully the banner he guards in his
lie watches our land from his cirie on
high.
And our flag waves for him on the
Fourth OF July.
Our forcfa,hcrs gave us this home OF
the free.
And tenderly guarded young Liber,ys

undaunted in battle heroic they stood
And nourished the soil with the best
OF their blood:
Blow. blow the wild bugles. but no,
for the fray.
The morning has dawned upon Liber-
tvs day:
Unfurl the proud emblem that kisses
the sky
For. this is the worlds only Fourth OF
July.
The rollicking drums, let them sound
in their might.
And rally the people. but not for the
fight:
The land is anamc. and the rockets

And listen. o'er Brandy~ine's historic
plain
The old Contincntals are s~armins

With the tread OF the brave and the

They march. as It were. to our Fourth

The Past Is our pride and the cycles
Of fate
Await us inside OF the Ccntury's gate:
We dress to the colors that nutter and

While I.iberty's stands at the head OF

Look up at the Flag that will never

As long as the tale OF our fathers IL

As long as our land is our home may

To crown with its glory each Fourth

Special to The Evening Journal.

ElttldA 10 Inc LAtMlllH JNAANaAs
NEW CASTLE, Feb. 26.-"Jack the
Hugger" has made his appearance in
this city and had the spirit of Billy
Penn stalked about the streets no big
ger sensation could have been Gre
ated
The stranger was encountered by
three young girls on as many nights
and now escorts are demanded be-
fore the city's misses go out of doors
after dark one young girl was walk
ing along Harmony street when the
fellow grabbed her around the waist
and attempted TO embrace her. Her
cries for help caused him TO release
her After reaching a friends house
she told Of her experience and a num-
Der OF young men went in search Of
the man but could find no traces OF
him.
The following evening another young
girl was on her way TO church services
when he grabbed at her, but she sue
ceeded in Guiding him. He chased her
for two squares until he saw her en-
ter the church. The next evening the
man was again in evidence at Third
and Harmony streets. when he grab
bed another young girl This one tus-
sled with the man and TO stihe her
cries for help he hit her four times in
the mouth. but the girl was deter
mined and succeeded i'm loosng the
mans hold.
From the description given 70 was
the opinion that he was a member Of
crew OF one OF the boats now lying
at the Delaware street wharf. Some
OF the boats were inspected but no one
