The magnifi cent residence of Fred Heron, manager of the Phoenix Iron works, on Main street, had a marrow escape from en tire destruction by fire yesterday after noon. As It was, $3,000 worth of prop erty was destroyed. Mr. Heron, in his preparation to cele brate tho Fourth, had stored a large crate of fireworks be'hlnd his piano in his parlor and had locked the doors to keep the children from getting at them. About 3 o'clock this afternoon the gard ener was startled by hearing report af ter report Jn the parlor. The doors were locked and the only means of ac cess was through the parlor window. Putting his foot through the French plate glass he was greeted with a show er of fireworks. P.oman candles, sky rockRts, flower pots, mines and showers of stars were flying-about the room mingled now and then with a deafen ing roar of monstrous dynamite crack or. . -.. .

Advertising and subscription rates cheerfully submitted. America's great holiday was cele brated In a very undemonstrative man ner. All mines, factories and stores were closed for the day. and the people prepared themselves for many pleasant and quiet pastimes. The small boy and the large fire-cracker were prevalent, while the smeM of burnt powder per fumed the air and recalled to the minds of all true hearted Americans the struggle of our forefathers In 1778, The opening exercises of the day were the raising of the flag at the hospital grounds. A very appropriate ceremony for the Fourth of July was the flag: presenta tion by the draml Army of the Re public post. No. 245. to the managers of the PHtston hospital and their suc cessors, and the rasing of the same for tho first time on a Hag pole, previously placed on the hospital grounds by a patriotic .citizen. The following pro gramme was carried out after the Orand Army of the Republic members had marched, headed by two bands, from the post rooms to the hospital, about 10 a. m.s As master of cere monies, John H. taw filled all require ments. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Oeorge; Colonel Cyrus K. Campbell, in his usual happy manner made the pre sentation speech. The acceptation speech was made by Oeorge 8. Ferris, esq. Colonel Campbell said that all Pennsylvania had a Just pride in the names of Meade (cheers), Hancock (cheers), Reynolds (cheers), and as well the 366,107 soldiers, which Pennsylvania sent to the war of the Rebellion, A detail of Grand Army of the Republio men attached the flag to the hoisting cord and at the second that it first un furled to the slight breeze the nearby cannon fired the first gun of a salute of twenty shots. The bands played "The Star Spangled Banner," and "Rally Round the Flag." C. I. A. Chapman was called for an impromtu speech, which exactly fitted the occasion, after which Benjamin Evans sang a couple of songs. The march back to Plttston ended the exercises, but "Old 0ry" remains on the flag staff on Hospital Hlil in all its glory. The rival teams of the Trl-County league came together for the first time yesterday at the fair grounds. The game was well played by both teaims with the exception of Lewis' error. The Garden Village team's batting was above the average, but was insufficient to cope with the fielding of the cham pions, who won the game toy a score of 11 to 7.

THE n.0riT8 OF LITEIATIH. They Are Satisfactory Enough It Yon Happen to Write the Kind of U teraturs That People Want to Bay. From the Globe-Democrat. The familiar picture of the literary worker, handed down through succes sive ages. Is that of a man living from hand to mouth, and performing val uable service without getting decent pay for it. There have been numerous instances of cruet and pathetic misfor tune In this respect, and it may be said of writers as a class that the world has generally failed to reward then as they deserved. It is hardly possible to sep arate the Idea of poverty from the pur suit of authorship, so closely have they been associated In history; and It has even been contended that the disci pline of want and suffering was essen tial to the production of certain great literary results. The fact that Milton received only $75 for "Paradise Lost" may have tended to stimulate his gen ius, but it was a gross wrong, neverthe less, and we can more easily believe that a fair return for his labor would have been equally invigorating and In spiring. He had to take what he could get. Instead of being allowed to name his own price, because the wares that he offered for sale were not such as found a popular demand 'Waiting for them. It has been so to a large extent always, and thus the picture of the average author In shabby clothes and with an expression of hunger la Justi fied by the records of actua experience. Many of the books that we highly prise did not yield their authors so much as the wages of an ordinary day laborer; and civilization is surely In some meas ure to blame for such a mockery of personal Justice. The Brighter Side. There Is something to be (aid on the other side, however. Not all of the truly worthy authors of past times have been condemned to penury and vagabondage. Some of them, on the contrary, have acquired fortunes by reason of the lib eral compensation they received for their work. Scott was paid for one of his novels at fhe rate of $252 per day for the time employed In writing H, and his total literary earnings aggregated 11,500,000. iByron got $20,000 for "Chllde Harold" and $15,000 for "Don Juan." Moore sold "Lalla Rookh" for $15,750, and his "Irish Melodies" brought him $45,000. Gray received only $200 for his poems, and not a cent for the Immortal "Elegy," out of which the publisher made $5,000; but that waa because he had an eccentric prejudice against tak ing money for writing. Tcmnyson had an annual Income of from $40,000 to $50, 000 for many years, though in the early part of his career, when he wrote "Maud" and "In Memorlam." he real ized next to nothing. Longfellow sold his first poems, Including some of his best ones, at very low figures, but he lived to receive $4,000, or $20 a line, for the '"Hanging of the Crane," and when he died he was worth $350,000. Whit tler left an estate of $200,000; and sev eral of tho leading 'American prose writers have done quite as well. These are exceptions, it Is true, but they serve to modify the general rule, and to show that In oases of superior merit, litera ture has proved to be 'notably profit able. Some Well-Paid Pens. It Is safe .to say that the present rates of pay for literary work of good quali ty are higher than those of any pre ceding time, and that the number of persons who are earning respectable Incomes In that way Is larger than was ever before known. The late Robert Louts Stevenson made $150,000 In twelve years; Rudyard Kipling has prospered in a similar degree; and Dobson, Wey man, Crockett, Barrle and others are well-to-do and getting big prices for their writings. There are authors of at Vr kinds, also, whose books are bringing them handsome returns. The number of readers of all sorts of lit erature Is constantly Increasing, and the lot of those who write for a living is oeing correspondingly Improved. It Is no longer true that manuscripts of real merit go begging for the chance of publication, or that books which should succeed ' encounter failure for want of public appreciation. An author who has anything of Interest or value to say, and knows how to say It In au entertaining way, can readily secure an audience, and obtain a reasonable rate of remuneration. Great writers are la mentably scarce, to be sure, but the world eagerly welcomes and fairly re wards those who fall short of great' ness, but who are capable In a sense and honestly striving to do their best. The popular Judgment is not exact In every Instance, but It Is more apt to err on the side of Indulgence than on that of unfriendliness, and all the conditions are favorable to increased employment and growing profits In the whole field of literature.
