The Tale Of a Shirt.

A torn shirt was produced as evil
dence in case which came up in the
police court not very long ago, when
an American judge whose native
tongue Is English heard the tale OF
the shirt from Filipino brand OF
American whose native tongue ~
Spanish, through an interpreter whose
native tongue Is also Spanish. but who
understands English well enough to
explain that his cOuntryman's shirt
was torn In "pilikia over one pants
and had disappeared from his iaun-
dry. The defendant was a Chinese
laundryman who claimed through an
Interpreter whose native tongue Is also
Chinese, but who understands English
sufficiently to explain that the Fill
pino had accepted the laundry on
Sunday only to return on Monday TO
pick a fight over the alleged dlsap-
pearance Of his zone pants" The

HAVE ANIMALS SIXTH SENSE?
Hard Otherwise to Explain How Wild
Beasts Knew That the Great
War Was Over.

Frightened by the noises of bsttle
the wild beasts of East, Central and
West Central Africa went scurrying
north and south. travelling sometimes
hundreds of miles in their fright and
taking refuge in localities entirely new
to them.
But just as the ruins of northern
France have drawn human beings back
to them-men and women VINO dwelt
there before the German occupation.
home has claimed the wild animals
and most Of them are now back in
their native haunts.
How did the wild beast know that
the war was over?
The elephant, gorilla, giraffe, ante
lope, buffalo, rhinoceros, lion. leopard
and pOrcupine are certainly all per-
fectly aware OF the fact!
Human beings have their various
avenues Of sending news, chief among
these the newspapers. the post and
the telegraph.
Whatever the method OF cOmmunica-
tlon, the wild animals certainly got
the news quickly.
Peace was no sooner accomplished
than the African natives began to see
the homeward migration Of whole
companies of wild beasts through their
territories, animals never familiar
in these particular communities and
obviously passing through.
Four years previously they had
come crashing through the under
brush, bound In an opposite direction.
They were in great haste then and pos
sessed of fear; and pachyderms and
carnivora Travelled together. the age
old war Of the jungle forgotten In
common plight.
Birds may become accustomed to
the sound of firing, but wild animals
loathe 1t. Fear Of strange noises Is
instructive with them. Animals born
in captivity invariably show this In
stinctive dread. And it is a we'll
known fact in geological parks that
apes can be controlled instantly by
the display Of musket, even when
as far as Is known they have never
seen one spit fire.

The Philadelphia Fourth Of July
celebration of 1777 was a public DEM
onstration, planned In advance. For
tunately we have short contemporary
account Of what took place. The
Pennsylvania Gazette, published week
ly by John Dunlap, tells In its issue
Of July 9, 1777, of this first Of long
line Of Independence day celebrations.
Here is the full account:
Friday, the fourth instant, being
the anniversary Of the independence
of America, was celebrated in this
city with demonstrations of Joy and
festivity.
About noon, all the armed ships
and galleys In the river were drawn
up before the city, dressed In the gay
est manner, with the colors Of the
United States and streamers displayed.
At l o'clock the yards being properly
manned, they began the celebration
Of the day by discharge Of thirteen
cannon from each of the galleys In
honor of the thirteen United States.
"In the afternoon an elegant dinner
was prepared for congress, to which
were invited the president and su-
preme executive council and speaker
Of the assembly Of this state, the gen.
eral officers and cOlonels Of the army
and the members Of the several con-
tinental boards who were In town.
1.-THE Hessian band of music. taken
in Trenton the twenty-sixth Of De-
cember last attended and heightened
the festivity with some fine perform
ances suited to the joyous occasion,
while a corps of British deserters
taken into the service of the Conti-
nent by the State of Georgia, being
drawn up before the door, filled up
the intervals with feux de joie.
after dinner a number of toasts
were drunk, all breathing indepeIrd-
ence and a genuine love Of liberty and
commemOrating the memories of those
brave and worthy patriots who gal
lantly exposed their lives and fell glori-
Ously in defense of freedom and the
righteous cause of their country.
Zach toast was followed by dis
charge of artillery and small arms
and a suitable piece of music by the
Hessian band. The glorious Fourth
finpS
accompanied with triple discharges of
cannon and small arms.
Toward evening several troops OF
horse and corps of artillery and a
brigade of North Carolina forces which
was In town on its way to join the
grand army were drawn up In Sec
ond street and reviewed by congress
and the general officers.
"The evening was closed with the
ringing of bells and at night there
was a grand exhibition of fireworks,
which began and concluded with thir-
teen rockets on the common, and the
city was beautifully Illuminated.
Everything was conducted with the
greatest order and decorum and the
face of Joy and gladness was uni
yerSal.
Thus may the Fourth of July, that
glorious and ever-riemorable day. be
celebrated through America by the
hosts of freedom from age to age till
time shall be no more. Amen and
amen

l..
gress postponed final consideration for
weeks. June II, congress appointed
committee Of five to draw up the
Declaration of Independence. Lee
would naturally have been made chair
man, but he had been called home by
the illness of his wife. Thomas Jeffer-
son of Virginia was made chairman
and his colleagues were John Adams
of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin
Of Pennsylvania, Roger Sherman Of
Of New York. The committee in
structed Jefferson to write out draft
Of the Declaration. Jefferson did so.
The committee made some changes
and Jefferson then made clean copy.
Congress reassembled July /, and the
Lee resolution was passed July ..
How this action was then regarded Is
shown by John Adams letter to his
wife, In which he said:
"The second day Of July, 1776, will
be the most memorable epoch In the
history of America. I am apt to be-
lieve that it will be celebrated by sue
ceeding generation as the great ami
versary festival. 1t ought to be COM
memorated as the day Of deliverence
by solemn acts Of devotion to God
Almighty. 1t ought to be solemnized
with pomp and parade, with shows,
games, sports, bells, bonfires, and IL
Elimination from one end Of this con-
tinent to the other, from this time
forward forevermore"
Jefferson then presented the report
of the Declaration committee, the docu-
of independence. 1t was adopted the
afternoon of July 4. John Hancock,
as president Of the congress, affixed
his signature. Charles Thompson
countersigned as secretary. 1t was
then printed and sent off to the sew
eral colonies. July Is. the clerk was
instructed to prepare the document for
signatures. Properly engrossed, 1t was
signed by all who were present-5O
members. Others signed in Septem-
ber and one member, Colonel Mexican,
did not sign until 1871. Seven men,
bers, for one reason or another, never
did sign it.
Pennsylvania, being the first colony
to receive it's Declaration of Inde-
pendence, was the first formally to
make public the action of congress.
July s, a general election day in Penn
sylvania, was chosen as the time. A
crowd Of about 1000 gathered near
the platform erected by the Philosoph-
ical society seven years before
from which RittenhOuse observed the
transit Of Venus. Mounted upon this,
Colonel John Nixon read the docu-
ment in his big voice and winsome
Deborah Logan, leaning over the wall
of the Norris homestead, which was
upon the present site Of the customs
house, heard him quite plainly. Both
she and Charles Biddle, writing Of the
scene in their diaries, make the COM
ment that "few respectable persons
were present" This was not remark
able, for Philadelphia wealthy class
of that day was outright Tory In its
sympathy and John Dickinson, Ed
ward Biddle, Thomas Willing and the
others expressed its sentiments ac-
curately when they voted against the
Lee resolution.
After the reading the crowd gave
three huzzas and took down the kings
arms from the state house. The bell
