Tlie Fourth at St. Johns
It
Mr.
was
lit.
July fourth was celebrated in a
good old fashioued way iu St.
Johns. In spite of the fact that many
pecple took advantage of the two
and 'one-half day holiday period to
seek the country for an outing, the
crowd iu St. Johns was fairly good.
And they were kept interested
from the time the parade started in
the morning until the iports had
been concluded late iu the after
noon. The parade was headed by
the Dand and it discoursed several
pleasing selections in excellent
style along the way. The leading
features of the parade was the Ash
by emigrant wagon that was gotten
up in the good old way, with none
of the features lacking to make
typical of the historical old etni
grant wagon of bygone days. An
other feature of the parade was the
float containing the Goddess of
Liberty, Miss Virginia Sicfcrt, who
was' selected by vote, and her
maids
A fine float was that of
and Mrs. Southmayd which
composed of rare rugs, screens
ens, silks, tables and other highly
interesting articles, worth many
dollars, and were secured by
Mis. Southmayd during her eight
years .stay in India. Mrs. botitli
mayd has been a great traveler and
iius been twice uroutid the world
The exhibit aroused a great deal
of interest.
The program at the baud stand
near the city lull after the parade
was'qulte interesting and listened
to attentively by a goodly sized
audience. Dr. II. I'. Jones; presi
dent of the day, gave neat open
ing address. "The Star Spangled
Banner." was sung by the gather
criug. followed by invocation by
Rev. W. 14. Klostcr. A pleasing
solo was sung by Mr. Ilultcrflcld.
Hon. T, J. Clcctou, orator of the
day, gave au interesting and inspir
ing discourse. The rending of the
Declaration of Independence by
Mrs. J. N. Bartlett was rendered in
a splendid manner. "America" was
sung by the assembly. A. G. John
son gave the closing address iu a
few well chosen and appropriate
words, The baud rendered several
pleasing selections that were greatly
enjoyed. Miss Thompson and Miss
Tooley presided at the piano.
In the afternoon the various
sports took place on Ivauhoe and
Syracuse streets. A list of the
prizewinners will appear in next

Tamburicaa Unique Instrument
Jugo-SIav Orchestra at Chautauqua Fcaturo Thoir
Own Native Sweet-Toned Instrument
ssW-' Tst ' ssssssssssssssHssssHlssssssssw
Probably no native Instrument brought to America In recent years has at
tracted wider attention than the tamburlca. It embodies some ot the best
features of the mandolin, banjo and guitar, but Is distinctive from each of these
Iu mauy respects. The ranee of music U almost limitless. In volume the
music produced by the sir players comprising the Jugo-SIav Tamburlca Orches
tra la equal to that of an orchestra of eight or nine players using other string
Instruments.
Throughout Eastern, Southern and Middle Western statea the concerts of
the Jugoslav Orchestra have been Xcclalmed as musical events of unusual Inter
est and value. Their Chautauqua tour of the Coast under Elllson-Wfclte di
rection will unquestionably add to the vplendld reputation alreudy galued.
They will give a ful( afternoon concert on tho fourth day and a, preludo In the
avenlnir.
