he took that famous ride. It was a
difficult service. He was likely at
any moment to run into n detach-
ment of British soldiers. His horse
might stumble on the dark, rough
roads and throw It's rider with
broken neck. To the surefootedness
of the steed and the luck and daring
of the horseman this country may
BIO said to owe it's existence as free
and independent nation
Revere's own story of his ride per-
haps best explains the events that
occurred that night He says:
"On Tuesday evening a number of
soldiers were observed marching to-
ward the bottom of the Common.
About 10 o'clock DR.. Warren sent in
great haste for me, and begged that
l would Immediately set out for Lex.
ington, where Hancock and Adams
were, and acquaint them of the move
ment, and that it was thought they
were the objects. When / got to DR..
Warren's house, l found that he had
sent an express by land to Licking
ton-a Mr.. William Dawes. The
Sunday before, by desire OF DIR. War
rem, L had been to Lexington, TO
Hancock and Adams, who were at
the Rev. Mr.. Clark's. l returned at
night to Charlestown. There / agreed
with a Colonel Conant and some
other gentlemen that If the British
went out by water, we should show
two lanthorns in the North Church
steeple, and If by land one as a sig
nal; for we were apprehensive it
would be difficult to cross the Charles
River or to get over Boston Neck.
I left DR.. Warren, called upon a
friend and desired him to make the
signals.
Il then went home, took my boots
and surtout, went to the north part
OF the town, where / kept boat.
Two friends rowed me across Charles
River, a little to the east of where
the Somerset man-of-war lay. 1t was

landed me on the Charlestown side.
When | got into town / met Colonel
Conant and several others. They

told them what was acting, and we
went to get horse OF Deacon
Larkin."
With the horse speeding him along,
Paul Revere soon reached Licking
ton, where he aroused Hancock and
Adams. On his way to Concord, he
was captured by four British officers.
While their prisoner, a volley fired
by Colonial militiamen frightened
them, and they abandoned their cap
tive, after taking his horse. Revere
then footed it to Woburn, back to
Lexington and on to Concord, where
he saw the memorable conflict.

Memorable Uffcrnnccs-

The Declaration of independence
has been in all subsequent history
designated as "a document immor-
tai and the story of the struggles
for American independence comprise
the most thrilling incidents related
to the revolutionary movement TO
plant freedom In the New World.
History gives honorable place to the
utterances of the heroes whose names
are linked with the achievements of
the Continental Congress. We quote:
WORDS OF THOMAS JEFFERSON:
"The God who gave us life gave us
liberty at the same time"
1--WE hold these truths to be self
evident. that all men are created
equal; that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable
rights; that among these are life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. >"
I'VE mutually pledge to each other
our lives, our fortunes and our sa-
cred honor"
when In the course of human
events It becomes necessary for one
people to dissolve the political bonds
which have connected them with an
other, and to assume among the pow
ers of the earth the separate and
equal station to which the laws Of
nature and of natures God entitle
them, decent respect to the opinion
OF mankind requires that they should
declare the causes that impel them to
the separation. From the Declara-
ton of Independence.

light to commend it to history. At
midnight on the 18th of April, ITS,
Paul Revere, the daring patriot, made
his famous ride on horseback to
arouse the sleeping farmers and
townspeople with the warming that
the British soldiers were on the way
to seize the powder and stores hidden
away In Concord.
However much the facts and de-
tails of this ride may be disputed
and there have arisen a legion of
critics and carping historians who
deny the authenticity of much of the
story-the youth of the land will be
more than willing to accept it as
given to the world in the lines of
Longfellow, which thrill and stir
every one who reads them.
But since denials have arisen. it
may be well to state the facts as
plain, unvarnished history gives
them. AS a matter of fact, while It
is popularity believed that the lantern
was hung in the belfry of the North
Church to signal the direction taken
by the British to Paul Revere. who
was waiting across the river for the
signal, Paul Revere had no need of
such a signal. Z He had accurate in
formation regarding the route to be
traversed by the British. The Ian
tern was placed there to warn others.

also, especially If Revere was taken
prisoner.

DISASTROUS FIRE IS
NARROWLY AVERTED
BY Timely Arrival OF Arthur
SchillIng at w. L. Barker g.
Cos Storo---Lighted Cigar
Stub Thrown In sawdust Box
tho Source OF Trouble.

A disastrous fire was narrowly
averted Tuesday morning by the
early arrival Of Arthur Schilling
at w. L. Barker & Co.'S hard
ware store. II seems that some
one had thrown q lighted cigar
stub in the box of sawdust the
night before and this ignited the
sawdust which being damp did
not burn freely but smoldered
away until the box was entirely
consumed and the sparks then
set fire to the floor. A small
hole in the floor and part Of the
sleeper was burned and the
flames had just nicely got started
when Mr.. Schilling arrived at
the store to open up for the day.
Mr.. Schilling says that he was
at the store a great deal earlier
than usual and cannot explain
the reason but turned out to be
q lucky happening as had he ar
rived at the usual time the fire
would have been under much
headway and would undoubtedly
have caused much damage.

A great deal of threshing in
Ferry Canyon still remains to
be done, the machine from Pen
dleton still having a three weeks
run. The farmers are badly
hampered by the fact that under
the existing financial conditions
the threshers will take nothing
in payment but gold coin and at
present this is difficult to secure.
The rainy weather of the past
week is another damper, especi-
ally on hauling. tits safe to say
that a large amount of grain will
not be brought to town before
next spring.

Condor Boys Behind Times.

In the columns Of the Weston
Leader of last week appears an
account of the Condon- Weston
football game. It is very inter-
esting since the Weston boys
have gone back home and regist-
cred the following kick The
Condor team, however, was
composed of townsmen, for the
most part business men and
laborers of the city. Worst of
all, they were not familiar with
the game as now played, but in
sisted on following the old rules,
a concession finally granted by
Weston, but one which proved a
serious handicap.
They also said that Condor
made her touchdown on a stolen
ball and was unable to make SUBJ
stantial gains by straight foot
ball. Now the Weston boys are
all nice young fellows and a
credit to their school, except as
football players, but as everyone
knows it is a matter of fact that
when a team is defeated they
can always give all kinds of ex-
cuses, hence their saying that
Condor played old-style football
etc. The Condor boys made
their touchdown by good straight
football, not by a stolen ball,
and the only reason they did not
run their score up to 35 or 40
points was because the teachers
were complaining about the Con-
donites playing too roughly with
them. Mr.. Hooper, their coach,
lately from Ohio, was even heard
to say that he thought they were
liable to get shot. /" Their rea-
son for saying that Condor was
not familiar with the game was
probably because the boys here
did not work any of their for
ward passes or trick plays and
the reason they did not was be-
cause they were entirely unneces-
sary, the Weston boys being un-
able to make it interesting when
playing only straight football.
OF course the boys here acknowl-
edge that they are not up-to-date
on such plays as the Weston
Squat" etc, but they have not
had the advantage of a coach
from Ohio. The teachers also
showed their excessive knowl-
edge of the game when their
kickoff was returned at which
time they stood around with
their mouths open like a bunch
of boys at a balloon ascension.
Take a little advice boys: Learn
to play straight football before
you try any of those funny for
nations from Ohio.
