FOURTH WAS MUCH
 ENJOYED HERE
Thousands of Pine BIuiiians Saw file Big Fireworks Display at Forest Park Theater Last Night-NO Per. sons Injured Anywhere in the City.

The Glorious Fourth was indeed a
 glorious day for Pine Bulffians. Base
 ball, fireworks, picnics and various other attractions were furnished them at Forest Park and there was enough
 doing on the side to make every patriotic man, woman and child hap py. Although many of the stores of the city remained open during the day, until 6 o'clock p. m., there was practically nothing doing downtown. All went Forest Parkward and last night, when the shows openel on the Pike and the fireworks were started to working, there were fully ten thou sand people on the grounds.
 The fireworks display was one of the most magnificent ever given in thisf city and proved a great drawing card. The Citizens Light and Tran sit Company had all of it's cars in ser vice on all lines and the service was good throughout the night. The at- fractions at the Park all did a good business and taken all in all the Fourth in Pine Bluff was big suc- cess. No persons were injured by fireworks, as far as could be learned last night, and there were no acci- dents during the day in any part of the city.
