Then* ' was not in the United States nt that ■ time a |x»w<ler mill which supplied more than purely local necessities, and. so fur as known, there was but one small manufactory of muskets. Unless the colonists coubl obtain |s»w<ler anil shot rosistance was obviously out of th«* question. Two days after Lexington the Mas sachusetts committee of safety made an accurate estimate of the existing supplies In New England for its hastily Improvise«! army, and It re vealed twelve fleldpieces, 21,000 tire arms, 17,(MSI ; m > uih 1 s of powder and 22,- <n»> |s>uu<ls of hall. Obviously n pound of powder per soldier could not last very long, and we are not surprised to learn that a few months later Wash ington bad kegs of sand, labeled “Pow der," roll«! into camp iu order to de lude bls soldiers into the apparent se curity that there was plenty of am munition. On the morning of Bunker Hill each man of Colonel Stark's brig H«le, acconllng to a e»»ntemp«»rary re'- ord, race!veil only “a gill cupful of IHtwder, fifteen balls and one flint." It was the failure of ammunition, it will be remembered, that compelled the colonists to retire from that glorious defeat. By August, 1775, powder was almost gone. Washington wrote that the situ ation was “terrible” and he ha«l left only thirty-two barrels of powder for his army. Th«* poverty of powder was so evident that General Charles Ix*e suggested to Franklin that pikes should lx* manufactured, and Franklin even gravely urged the use of bows ami arrows. 0 "Fourth of July’’ In March. Fireworks on Imlepemlem-e «lay arc denltsl the children uiid grown folks of Alaska for tin* simple reason that the July nights are almost ns light as th«* «lays, and it does not pay to at- tempt pyrotechnic displays If there is no darkness to show them off by con- trust. Consequently it Ims become the custom in many Alaskan cities, in eluding Falrlmnks. to hold a Fourth of July celebration <>n March 4 when th«' nights are still very long. Then there Is abundant opportunity for dis playing fireworks of every variety. World’s Biggest Bird. And July 4 Is His Day HE biggest bird in all the world is the great American eagle, with one claw resting on the highest peak of the Alleghenies ami the other on the Rocky mountains, with one wing touching Port«» Rico, the other fanning tli«> distant rhilip pines. His lieak reaches the Canadian bor der. and hl. tail dips Into th«* gulf of Mexico. Anti his voice, the thunder tones of till, inlgbty bird. echoes from South America to Canada—aye, and far l»eyond, over unto the uttermost cor ners of the earth, is the Rcream of the American eagle heard and heeded Thu. at all times. Rut there Is one day In every year when Its triumphant tone, sound the loudest, the moat Joy ous. the world over. That Is on the glorious Fourth of July, the nation's proud birthday. It Is then that the small boy and the big boy bum powder as incense to the memory of our gallant forefathers who drove the British from our shores an«l with their heart's bl«»od upheld their noble Declaration of Independence for all time to come.—nelen Harvotlrt In Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

For twenty day. congress was tossed on a sea of perplexity. At length Richard Henry Lee, .baking off the fetters that galled his noble .plrit, arose on June 7 and in a clear, de ll berate tone proposed the following resolution: ‘‘Resolved. That these united colonies are and ought to be free and Inde pendent states, and all political connection tween us the sta es Great Britain Is and ought to be totally d 1 s- ■Olved.” John Adams, in whose soul glowed the burn ing future, sec onded the resolu tion In a speech so full of impas sioned fervor, thrilling elo John Adam« Made quence and pro an Impassioned phetic power Speech. that congress wa., carrl«-d away before it as by a resistless wave, The die was cast, and every man was now compelled to meet i the issue. The resolution was finally deferre«l till July 1 to allow a « onimit- tee appointed for that purpose to draft a Declaration of Independence. When the day arrived the I»e« lara- tion wa. taken up and delsited article by article. The discussion continued for three days and was charac terized by great excitement. At length the va rious sections having been gone through with, the next day, July 4, was ap|»ointed for action. It was soon known throughout the city; and in the morning, before congress assem- bled, the streets were filled with excited men, some gathered in groups engaged The Streets War» in eager discus Filled With Men. sion and others moving toward the state house. All business was for- gotten in the momentous crisis which the country bad now rew-hed. No soner liad the members taken their seats than the multitude gathered in a dense mass around the entrance. The bellman mounted to the belfry to be ready to proclaim the joyful tidings of freedom as soon as the dual vote was passed. A bright eyed boy was stationed below to give the sig nal. Around the bell brought from England had been cast more than twen ty years before the prophetic motto; “Pro claim liberty throughout all the land, unto all the itihnbi- tants t hereof.” Although Its loud clang hnd often Bounded overtho city, the proela* mation engraved on its Iron lip had never yet “Clang.

The mul titude grew Impatient. The old man leaned over the railing, straining hi.« eye downward till his heart misgave him and hope yielded to fear. But at length, about 2 o'clock, th«* door of the hall opened anil a voice exclaimed. “It ha. passed!” The word leaped like lightning from lip to lip. followed by bunas that shook the building. Th«' boy sentinel turned to the belfry, clapped bls hands and shouted, "Ring! ring!” The desponding bellman, elec trified Into life by the joyful nows, seized the Iron tongue and hurled it backward and forward with a clang that startle«l every heart In Philadel phia like a bugle blast.—Joel T.
