Lust night left the buildings comparatively undecoruted but when persons awoke this momlnir they hud bloomed out in a beautiful dress of bunting itnd Hags. Every person in the city has seemed to enter the plan of a big celebration with enthusiasm, and there Is no doubt but what It will be a success. The parade will be the greatest display ever witnessed In this city. The civic par ade under eharife of Captain M. J. Quinn will move promptly at SLSO and will pass over all the principal streets.

This will enable them to be seen from any part of the city. TWO ACCIDENTS ALREADY. The I'snnl Cnrelcsncs of the Small Boy Lnds Disastrously. As long as there Is a Fourth of July the small boy will celebrate in his own way and the usual number of ac cidents will occur. This year they seem to have com menced early enough as two accidents have happened already. The little 12-year-old son of Willium McMullen, the tailor. Is one of the llrst victims. He, with a number of companions, was en gaged In firing a cannon, and to make the report louder tilled it up with gravel and small stones. Just as the cannon exploded young McMullen stepped In front of it and received the charge in the leg. He was carried home and Dr. Nlles called, who dressed the wounds. He was oMIged to cut out part of the charge, which was em bedded deep In the calf. The leg was badly burned also, and It Is needless to say that the boy will spend the Fourth In bed. The second accident occurred to James, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Wylle. The little fellow had been busy preparing a monster kite to send up on the Fourth, and was trying It when the accident happened. The kite falling suddenly and hitting the boy upon the forehead.

First, the marvelous gro wth of our shoe busi ness iu the face of active competition, is due to the brains and the' capital invested, united with methods that command ing the respect of our public, has created an ever increasing constituency. Second, every day our shoe store grows in popular favor, grows more crowded, too. We don't sell shoes for looks and not for wear, or sho2s for wear and not for looks. It is just as easy to combine the two and do it cheaply, with our usual enterprise and determination to make our shoe store the most popular one in Scranton. Third, if this thing be true, our shoe news has a particular claim upon your attention. Greatest Bargains in Mercantile History. Men's Fine Hand Sewed Russia Calf Shoes, sold all over town for $5.00.
