4 Good Example Is Inspiring.

II must gratify any one to walk around the city, occasionally, some pleasant afternoons, as they will see steady improvement going on In most of the residential streets. Begin with Grove street, and from school street to the cemetery, they will see-with one exceptional spot corner of Ring street, which tells what that entire block had heen--beantiiul lawns. we'll kept, on both sides, and adorned with shrubs, and flowers of many varieties, and not a feneelte distigure the attractive scene.
 At the homc;ef Mir. H.u. Preston may be seen among several varieties of rose bushes, the Yellow Rambler Rose--the only specimen, we understand, in the city. 1t rises to the height of about twelve feet, and spreads, or rather "rambles.n about the same distance. it Is now in full bloom. The buds, In clusters ef from three to five, are of a pale yellow, but the flowers come out white. It Is beautiful sight.
 We need an "Improvement Society," to encourage making every residential street equally attractive with Grove. Lots are worth 50 to loo per cent more than they were about twenty years ago, when the fences began to disappear, and beautiful lawns became the order, without concert of action, but by the force of good example, until now there is no exception. The change has a re- timing influence on the entire commu- nifty, and the parallel and lateral street, feel, and show, the force of that retin. ing influence, and desirable people seek homes In that fast growing district.

\ Sane Fourth for putaam

Fourth oflJuiy la at hand and most cities are adopting measures to stay the woful disasters that follow the free use of explosives, especially among the young and thoughtlcss, and many old CT ones need legal checking to keep them from injury by their own heed. lessness. The recent Bunker Hill ceIe- bration is an object lesson, that ts stir ring up activity throughout the coun. try to restrict the use of firearms and other dangerous causes of death and injury to young or needless beines. At the Bunker Hill celebration, the list of mailmed and Injured almost rivalled the list of wounded on the American side In the actual battle of is4 years ago. Fireworks and pistols werc the main instruments that caused the disasters. For twoor three years our city hes been under good control of the police. Tho Mayors public warning, restricting the hours when disturbing noises to ceie- brate the Fourth, would be permitted, has been we'll honored. Consequently citizens have not been disturbed, dur ing sleeping hours, either morning or evening, and few casualties, II any, have occurred. The same warning. we expect, will be given for this Fourth.
 Parents, and citizens generally, will join with the Mayor In aiding to make the Fourth worthy of an intelligent people, and refuse to encourage the sa. vagery of wild tumult and use of dan gerous methods of celebrating the gio- rious day of our National Independence that. .has invariably brought distress and lamentation wherever unrest rict- edly indulged In.
