A COUNTRY VILLAGE ON JULY THE
FOURTH.
Items Which Are of Particular
Interest to Pennsylvanians.
What is
Vvmaiim nt NnlM and Ilia AIhmm
f Cat. Dl.tlngul.h th. Anniversary of
ah Nation's Independence The Roys
Perpetuate the Day.
There are two conspicnona featnrw
which goto distinguish the glorious an.
Ill f sary of onr national independence
from any other holiday, and those are
Km presence of noise and the absence of
esta. The noise commencea when the
boys wake up. The cata commonce
they wake op. We dont know
i the cata go. We only know they
gOk Sometimes we have thought they
Bay dissolve in tho air, and aacend into
paoe until the racket is over. Bat this
la merely a speculation. Dogs are unlike
jsta. Doge ore more like women; trast
ftBg, confiding, and hoping for the beat,
o-dogs stay around to see what's going
en. Quite frequently they find out
The Fourth of July was not made for
the boys, but they have got hold of it.
Is k a boy's day as completely and thor
oughly as if they had been measured for
it No man thinks of the day in ite true
significance. If he ponders on and
ayeiVs of the heroism, the devotion, the
pary of the turn of "70 and is a drinking
nam, he will be as drunk as a fiddler
within an hour, if not already there. No
man cares aught for the day unices he
beeps a saloon or makes ice cream or
sells fireworks. If ho doesn't go on a
picnic he stays home and hoes his garden.
It is the boy who meets und escorts in
the day, who waits upon it while it
Stars and sees it off at tho last. As long
as there are boys there will be a glorious
anniversary of our national independ
ence. When they play out it will play
out, There is nothing a man forgets so
easily and completely as that he was
oooe a boy. The man who is awakened
oat of a sound sleep at dawn of the
Fourth and swears ot the noise, who is
startled by an unexpected cracker or
deafened by an unexpected cannon and
calls the whole thing a piece of con
demned foolishness that onght to be
swept from the face of the earth, was
once a boy himself, and the noisiest, the
easrhest, the latest and the most infernal
el all the boys in his gang. But you
wouldn't think so to hear him fume and
tret and scold now.
It would be amusing if it were not so
painful to hear parents advise the boys
So go to bed early on the night of the
third, so as to get rested by a good sleep.
Sleep! What an insane idea! Sleep
en the night of the third! Are parents
mad?
Does a man want to trade off a leg of
flash for one of wood? Does a cockroach
ak for a paper of carpet tacks? Does an
oyster yearn for a porous plaster? Then
why should a boy want sleep on the
sight before the Fourth? What he wants
Is powder to explode, windows to rattle
aad an aged lady in the neighborhood to
taint dead away. If he should want any
thing else he will mention it. If yon
would have him perfectly happy on this
day of all days ask him not to sleep, ask
him not to wash himself.
There are two seasons of the day
which, by their livid contrast to each
other, form epochs. One of these is at
10 a. m., the other is at 3 p. m.
Dunbory at 10 a. m. presented a re
markably lively appearance. Many of
the stores were closed, but this was not
noticeable in the life and animation
everywhere about. The main street was
toll of people. Teams were running to
and fro. Boys were busy comparing
notes, laying in further supplies, and
firing off those already on hand. Folks
after cream and lemons, women in white,
men with baskets .on picnics bent, were
hurrying here and there, and the scene
they made was a lively one indeed.
At 3 p. in. a radical change had swept
orer the village. Both nature and lru
manity were exhausted, and Donbnry lay
pulseless in the glare of the son. The
main street was comparatively deserted;
the private streets were entirely so. Here
and there an irrepressible boy let off a
cracker or a little cannon, but these
sounds, by their rarity and brevity, only
made the silence more oppressive.
A wandering man, appearing as if he
had just been shoved out of a graveyard,
was to be seen moving aimlessly about
The stone flags and gutters were full of
debris of the burnt crackers, fruit leav
ings, peanut shells and cigar stamps.
The sun poured straight down in a
blinding glare of heat rtpon blistering
stones, gray dust of roads and yellow
gravel of walks.
The town was like a man who had
been kicking tip Old Ned to his heart's
content and had now luid down, and
didn't want anybody to touch him.

' Knew It Was Louded.
"Now, children," said the old man, as
he took tho musket from the corner in
view of tho assembled family, "ye all soe
this powder?"
"Yes, sir," came the reply in chorus.
"See it go into the gun."
"Yes, sir."
"An this bullet?"
"Yes, sir."
"An this cap?"
"Yes, sir."
"An' ther' ain't no donbt in the mind
of any of ye?"
"No, sir."
"All right," the old man coucluded
with a sigh of relief; "maybe well git
over this Fourth of July 'thout an acci
dent in the family," Exchange.

fered to appear before the committee at any

reply to the request made to Lawyer Rob
ert Alexander asking that John Bardsley
be again allowed to appear before the com
mittee for examination was also received.
Postmaster General Wanamaker's letter
was as follows:
Mr. Wanamaker's Letter. i
Chairman Van On ten:
Drill Sin It seems to be thought by some
that certain evidence offered at the last meet
ing of your committee is not in harmony with
the testimony delivered by me when I appeared
before yon as a witness. I asautne that your
committee fully understand tho matter. If,
however, there la any explanation wanted from
me I will be glad at twenty fonr hours' notlre to
meet any momber of the committee and ex.
plain any or every item of my statement or at
tend at any meeting of which I have notice.
Yours respectfully, John Wanamakkii.
Ilardsley Would Reply In Writing;.
Lawyer Alexander's reply to the request
of the committee to further question ex
City Treasurer John Bardsloy was that his
client would reply In writ ing to any ques
tion which might be sent to him in writ
lug, and would in that way give the com
mittee nil the Information in bis power.
As his client was in prison and practically
convicted, he did not think it- would be
proper to allow hiui to appear in person
before the committee.
The first witness examined by tho com
mittee was S. P. Durham, of Trenton, X.
J., the president of tho Mechanics'. Na
tional bank of that city. Ho testified that
H. H. Yard had been a depositor at his
bank for nearly eighteen years.
The Wanamnker Hank Stock.
Certificate No. 450, for 200 shares of Key
stone bank stock issued to John Wana
maker and with the. power of attorney
signed by him, was placed in the bank by
II. H. Yard.
It was placed there as collateral security
for a loan, but President Durham declined
to state the amount. Certificate No. 907
of Keystone bank stock issued to
A. L. Dingles, was also taken as
collateral by the bank and money
loaned to Yard. The officers of the bank
themselves suggested that the stock be
transferred and held in the name of Scnd
der and Durham, as they believed they
would be better protected. He bod no
knowledge that Yard acted for" anybody
else. The money had not yet been paid al
though the bank had made a formal de
mand for it. The bank officers had never
in any way communicated with John
Wanamaker In relation to the stock.
For Mr. Wanamaker's Aeeommodatlon.
Effingham P. Morris, president of the
Girard Trust company, testified that his
company had never loaned any money to
John Bardsley or discounted notes for him.
Certificate 450 for 300 shares of Keystone
bank stock had at one time been In the pos
session of the trust company, being a part
of a lot of 1,000 shares on which the com
pany loaned John Wanamaker money on
March 8, 18S6. The loan was called in on
Oct. 34, 1889. His company loaned money
to the Keystone bank on three occasions:
Jan. 6, Nov. 9 and Nov. 10, 1890. The loan
was made to President Marsh, who ex
plained that it was for Wanamaker's ac
commodation and gave as collateral secur
ity 1,461 shares of common and 348 shares
of preferred stock of the Electric Trust
company.
Howard Spencer Jones, to whose name
some of the Wanamaker stock was trans
ferred, testified that he bad been in Wana
maker's employ for twenty-seven years.
He said that he knew nothing of the two
certificates which stood in his name be
yond the fact that be remembered signing
the transfer at Wanamaker's request
Rankin, in whose same some of the cer
tificates were transferred, be said, was a
youth employed in Wanamaker's office at
one time. A number of officials of na
tional banks and trust companies were
also called, but they all testified that their
institution had never made any loan to
John Bardsley, discounted bis paper or
borrowed money from him.
Senator Quay Criticised.
An address to the citizens of Pennsylva
nia has been issued signed by 150 of Phila
delphia's most influential business and
professional men, all of whom are Repub
licans, to point out the causes of the deg
radation of public affairs in the state and
the necessary steps toward improvement.
Senator Quay's management of the Re
publican Interest is criticised.
In the address Mr. Quay's leadership is
characterized as unscrupulous in its meth
ods and disastrous in its results. Quay is
held responsible for the overwhelming dis
aster the party met with last fall. His
lieutenants in the legislature are charged
with committing a stupid political blun
der by their hostility to the ballot reform
bill aud with having violated tho ex
press pledges of the party and openly de
lied the will of the overwhelming majority
of their constituents.
"These things," tho address says, "have
found a fitting culmination in the robbery
of the city and state treasuries. As the
party will soon be called upon to nominate
a Btute and city treasurer and an auditor
general, the nominations must be given to
honest men or the party will meet with
another defeat. In the presence of these
facts Pennsylvania Republicans must not
hesitate as to their duty or be In doubt as
to their course.. It is a crisis, and it can
only be met by the retirement of Mr.
Quay. More competent and worthy leader
ship is necessary, and an unflinching de
mand must be made for the retirement of
these men from the places which they have
disgraced,"
All persons throughout the state in sym
pathy with this movement are requested
to address look box No. 783 Philadelphia
postofflce. The appeal is signed by John
H. Converse, George Buruham, John T.
Bailey & Co., Re. Joseph May, Rev. Al
fred J. P. McClure, Rev. J. Ellott Wright,
Rev. Stephen W. Dana, D. D., James E.
Rhoades, M. D., Henry Hartshorne, M. D.,

spiracy with Bardsley and others to secure
