Celebration at Hawthorne Park.

Sunday School Picnics.
Apparently weary of the violent observ
ance of Independence Day that has been
the custom here for years, Portland aban
doned her noisy and dangerous customs
yesterday and celebrated the Fourth in
perhaps the sanest manner In Its history.
Fewer accidents than In the past 10
years; fewer fires than In a like period;
less noise on the streets than has been
heard since Portland became a city; a
paucity of streetcar accidents, and fewer
people In town were some of the not
able features of yesterday's celebration
of the Nation's natal day.
The small boy sat alone on his own
front steps and fired an occasional fire
cracker, his big brother set off a few
bunches downtown and several grown-ups
Joined in the desultory cannonading, but
altogether they did not make enough
noise to Jar the feelings of the most
nervous. It was like a rural Sabbath,
compared with Portland's previous dem
onstrations. Chinese Shoot Many Crackers.

The Swedish churches observed the day
with a picnic at Piedmont, and at Oe
wego the Catholic Girls' Orphanage was
dedicated by Archbishop Christie, with
Governor Chamberlain as the orator of
the day.
So far as the police were concerned
they were practically Idle during the day.
Arrests were unusually few, even for an
ordinary day, and no reports of disorders
or disturbances of consequence were re
ceived. Firemen also had a sort of holiday
compared with the Fourths of July of the
past few years. A few alarms were
turned in, but no fires of consequence
occurred.
MANY SPEND DAY IN COUNTRY
Great Crowds Leave City by Rail
and River.
Immense throngs of people left Port
land yesterday by rail and water but
Just how many celebrated the day by
going on excursions or visiting friends out
of the city is hard to estimate correctly,
for figures had not been made up by the
different companies last night. Travel
was very heavy on the Vancouver, Oaks
and Cazdero lines of the Portland Bail
way, Light & Power Company and many
people took the trip around Portland
Heights and Council Crest. However,
officials of the company say yesterday
waa not a record day by any means, al
though probably 50,000 fares were rung
up on the various lines.
Trains on the steam roads were heavily
patronized yesterday. In whatever direc
tion they went, they had their full quota
of passengers. Hordes of people flocked
to the country to visit friends or picnic
in some favored spot. The weather was
so pleasant for this form of recreation
that the movement was greater than that
of former years and those who went
away on the railroads for the day num
bered several thousand. Many went to
the beach to remain over Sunday and
the trains and ' boats bound for the
various ocean resorts were loaded.
But the favorite outing yesterday was on
the river and at points reached by steamers
and launches, while many went on

self what a blessing Postum Is to those
who are distressed in many ways by
drinking coffee. The wife writes:
"No slave in chains, it seemed to me,
was more helpless than I, a coffee cap
tive. Yet there were innumerable
warnings waking from a troubled
sleep with a' feeling of suffocation, at
times dizzy and out of breath, attacks
of palpitation of the heart that fright
ened me.
"Common sense, reason, and my bet
ter judgment told me that coffee
drinking was the trouble. At last my
nervous system was so disarranged
that my physician ordered 'no more
coffee."
"He knew he was right and he knew
I knew It, too. I capitulated. Prior
to this our family had tried Postum
but disliked it, because, as we learned
later, it was not made right.
"Determined this time to give Postum
a fair trial, I prepared it according to
directions on the pkg. that is, boiled
It 15 minutes after boiling commenced,
obtaining a dark brown liquid with a
rich, snappy flavor similar to coffee.
When cream and sugar were added, it
was not only good but delicious.
"Noting its beneficial effects in me
the rest of the family adopted it all
except my husband, who would not ad
mit that coffee hurt him. Several
weeks elapsed during which I drank
Postum two or three times a day,
when, to my surprise, my husband said-:
I have decided to drink Postum. Your
improvement Is so apparent you have
such fine color that I propose to give
credit where credit is due.' 'And now
we are coffee-slaves no longer."
