The Glorious Fourth I!
Celebrates Uncle
- Birthday.
Tim (florioim Fourth hm come
mill gniin and nothing remain! in
our little city, lint rememhrance
of n cnlehrntion givon by Fire Com
Kiny Nunilier One that wn all and
more than they had promised.
They fairly outdid themitc.lyiM and
furnished amusement for the crowd,
which was nerally estimated at
.itxMit HHK). Muny came from the
country district! and expressions
of approval from these outside folk,
regarding the feature of the day's
program and the good order main
tained were many. The disorderly
features seen so often In connection
with oclchrations were lacking on
this occasion. Commencing with
the morning parade and ending
with the hall in the evening the
lay wan nn enjoyahle one, given
oint entirely to celebrating Uncle
Sam's 127th birthday with not an
accident nor injured child to mar
the day's program.
The :norning parade waa the first
feature, anil started from . A. H.
I.ippman's store corner at aliout
I0;.!0 a. m. It was one of the
prettiest displays of patriotism over
'H in our city and was headed
bv the I'rincville Brass liand.
The band was followed by Fire
Company Number Two, who oc
cupied the position of honor on
this occasion. The boys of this
company always make- a neat a-
ieiiriiiH'c, owing to their uniformity
if gjOJlIu ni'tlt uoifnnui ... . T
Next came the liberty car with
the little folks, and a write up of onr
Miration would not be complete
without an esjiecial reference to the
litlle girls representing Uncle
Sinn's commonwealth!. They
were us pretty a lot of little ones as
graced a liberty car anywhere in all
America, and they were very
tastefully arranged anil decorated
by tho conimittee in charge which
was coniNwetl of Mesdanun Biggs.
Tliomwon and Smith.
After the lilierty oar came the
Hook and Ladder Truck, which
was manned by members ol Fire
Company Number One.
Following the Hook and Lad
der Company was the Thirteen
Colony Float, with Uncle Sam
I'o I.iifnllett in birge. The col
onies were represented by thirteen
little boys, who came in for
their shore ol praise. Their attires
indicated painstaking mothers.
Without the latter any Fourth of
July celebration would l' a flat
failure. . Hi.
Fire Company Number One's
hose cart came next. Tho boys of
this company had only recently
received brand new uniforms, and
their appenranco was neat.
The Warm Spring Indian band
followed the Thirteen Colony Float.
This musical organization is com
nosed of voting bucks from the
Warm Spring reservation, and
while their proilootions were not
tirst class, they were as good as
any could do w ith the limited pnic
tioo to which they were confined.
Following the Indian band was
a patriotic float decorated by
I. Michel, in which ho displayed a
part of his confectionary and fruit
slmk. It was a pretty display,
and the fruits, from the hardy
apple to the'tender bananna and
pine apple, aro now all raised
under the protection ot the flag b
which we all did homage.
Next came the 12 ladies on horse
hack and their riding was generally
complimented. This section is
noted for its KiUestiieiinc9, and
the ladies participating must to
have been 12 of our best.
C. I. Winnck's float came next
in the pnieession, and showed to
a good advantage the enterprising
lino it represented.
The parade executed its line of
march, after which it proceeded to
the School (trounds, where suitable
seats had been prepared by the
committee for the crowd.
The exercises were opened by
Sam's 127th
music by the Prineville hand,
which was followed by s prayer by
Chaplain If. C.' Clark. A double
quartet, compmed ol Messrs. Fred
Iebinan, J. B. Shipp, Frank Elkins
and Mark Powell, and. Miwdames
Powell, Klkins, King, Elkins and
Miss (Irace Belknap, then rendered
an effective number. Mrs. J. H.
Wigle next read the Declaration of
Independence, and her ability as
an elocutionist is too well known
in our city to need ol further com
ment. After a song by the double
quartet, Hon. Fred Wilson of The
Dalles was introduced by Judge
M. K. Brink, in a few well chosen
remarks. Mr. Wilson as orator of
tie day delivered an oration mark
il by an earnest, forceful delivery
iflid patriotic sentiment, and was
well received.
After a song by the quartet fol
lowed by music by the Indian band
the exercises were adjourned.
In the afternoon ' commencing at
1 ..tO and ending at 2:30 sports were
indulged in by the small boys.
Several had hearts made glad with
prizes. The little girl's bicycle
parade was also had at this time
and the prizes lor the best decorat
ed wheel were awarded to Verna
Smith first, and Wihla Salomon
second.
The ball game between the
Warm Spring Indian Reservation
team and the Prinevillcites lollow-
of the day. Following is a write
up from our baseball editor:
Tke BBtr Ball ia.
The Prineville boys played a
circle around the Indian ball toss
ers and after the -1st inning the
little brown boys never had a show
to win first money.
Tlie game started off with the Si-
washes at the bat and they placed
three men acrogs the plate for runs.
It looked good for the SiwasheB and
they made ar noise that would of
done credit to a college loot ball
team. hen the locals took their
turn at bat the first man up lined
out a safe one, but the next two
went out on easy ones. The little
brown boys felt so good that they
commenced w,,r dance, just to
show the locals they were easy, but
the next man up mixed things and
the fireworks commenced and by
the time three were out the locals
had tied the score. The Siwashcs
in their hall of the second failed to
find the ball and went the ozone
route in one, two, three order.
Fro.n this time on the game was
never in doubt and tho Siwashcs
played a hard, uphill game in a
manner which proved them to be
true sports.
The local team was the strongest
that has played here in years, and
although they were not forced to
play their best, they demonstrated
the fact that they can hold their
own with any team in Eastern
Oregon. It is to be hoped that
a series of games can be arranged for
in the near future. It would be a
good drawing card and give our
local fans a chance to witness a
fe- games of first class ball.
The line up was:

After the ball game, which wis
finished at about 5:30 Hose Com
panies Numlier One and Two con-
tcsted over a 300 yard course for
tlie$25 and I0 prizes, and resulted
in the Number Two team getting
the large ' prize. - The time from
the rtart until the stream was tarri
ed on was 64 and 63 seconds. This
event drew a good crowd of enthusi
asts, as both teams had many ad
mirers. , , s ,.
, After lupper sports were ) again
indulged in for a short time, after
which the dancing crowd held
iway. The proceeds ol tlie dance
were 1152, ol which sum 120 was
voted by the NumlwrOn boys to
or sent to the Heppner fire com
pany. The rest el the sum will
probably lie used to defray the in
cidental expenses of the cele
bration. ....
That the boys ol Fire Company
Numlier One can entertain was
amply demonstrated last Saturday,
and a pleasant remembrance ol
their successful efforts is fresh in
the minds ol all, Irom the small
boy with his (ire crackers to the
gray haired patriot. ' Much ol the
credit ol this celebration is due
Wm. Holder, J. W. Boone, P. B.
Doak, Geo. Cyrus, Ora Parker and
M. E. Brink and Mesdames Biggs,
Slayton and Thompson, and others,
whose untiring efforts made it
what it was.

Civil Engineer A. E. Hammond,
of Portland, who has been engaged
by the State Board of 'Portage
Railroad Commissioners to make
trom es to
Celilo, was
Salem last Wednesday.
In an informal verbal report to
the board he said that the work of
making the survey is progressing
satisfactorily and that he will be
ready to make a lull report in
about a week. He bos encountered
some difficulty on account of the
high water in the Columbia, but
this was not sufficient to prevent
the survey being made.
Mr. Hammond also reiorted to
the hoard that, after studying the
conditions of the region over which
the railroad must be built, he is of
the opinion that the road can be
constructed for the amount ap
propriated by the Legislature, $165,
000. He finds that with the ex
ception ol two or three short places
there are no portions of the road
that will require extensive grading.

Another great enterprise, the
Pacific cable, is completed. Last
Christmas the first message was
flashed through the depths of the
great Tacillc Ocean from Honolulu
to San Francisco, 2300 miles; and
now, onlv six and one-third
months later, the big wire will car
ry a message sent by the President
of this mighty Republic not only to
Honolulu, but thence, with
momentary stop, 1693 miles farther
to (jiiam, and thence, after a slight
halt, 1700 miles farther through
the unseen, unexplored watery
waste to Manila; thence it will be
pulsated almost as quickly as
thought moves in the brain to Hong
Kong, and so on across two conti
nents and narrow waters to Queens
town, and then in a breath or two
ncross the Atlantic to New York,
and so up to the little hamlet of
Oyster Bay, where the President
will receive it before he has had
time, after sending it forth on its
journey around the world, to smoke
hall ol a cigar.
A Pacific cable has been talked
ol lor many years; was looked upon
as a great undertaking; but the
late John W. Mackay said he could
and would lav it, and lo! in a few
months it is done, it is an nn
portant achievement, ami will aid
in bringing the United States and
the Orient into' closer commercial
relations, and in developing our
volume of commerce with the
thronging hundreds of mill ions of
.people across the Pacific. Tele
