Though the real climax will not
come until tomorrow. observance OF
the holiday period incident to the
Fourth OF July is really in full blast
today, owing to the fact that the day
was declared legal holiday by proc
lamation OF Governor Ritchie, and in
consequence there is total cessation
of official business at all State, city
and county offices, and the several
banking institutions are closed and
morning. A number of the merchants
will close their places of business
earlier today than usual, and practi-
cally all of them will remain closed
throughout tomorrow.
Hundreds of residents of the city,
in fact, all who could afford it, and
at the same time spare the period
from their regular business, are
availing themselves of the extensive
holiday made possible by the Cover
nor's proclamation. The exodus of
vacation seekers really began on Fri
day, increased Saturday and yester-
day, and is at its apex today. Many
persons have gone to nearby resorts.

and Chesapeake Bay are literally
dotted by outing parties, some Twins
in tents and others in houseboats.
Fishing grabbing and swimming are
furnishing the chief diversions by
way of pleasure.
The younger folks of the city have
laid their plans to celebrate the ami

years gone by, with a slap and bang.

this prohibitory measure, plenty of
fireworks have been on sale about
various stores in town.
There will be no formal observance
OF the holiday in the city, by way of
patriotic exercises. Officially, the day
will be signalized by the booming OF
guns of the battery aboard the station
ship Reina Mercedes at the Naval
Academy, as, according to custom the
national salute of 81 guns will be fired
at noon. In addition to this, the sew
