Morning Atorlun, 03 cent per month.
With yesterday's dawn the txcrutUtlng
heat of Monday bed vanished and the
first day of Atoria' celebration broke
clear and crlp and beautiful, an Ideal
luy for the pleasure rhedulcd In honor
of the nation's Independence.
The city presented a pretty sight -with
the lavish and artitic display of bunk
ing adorning many of it homes and
commercial hones, and the spirit of the
duy seemed acutely alive. Train and
slcHiner .landed bevje of pleasure
seeker from all point and this kept up
until all the night schedule had been
met. ' ' ,
The official program of the day opened
at 1:30 p. m. when the parade of the
school children to the city park was
formed at Tenth and Commercial street,
iU destination beiug the new park just
south of the city and beyond the water
work, the dedication of which bad been
put off for this day and date. ,
Jt ami Marshal A. L Clerk, assisted
by Harvey Allen, Stanley Young and
Donald Stuart, as mounted aide, had
full clung of tha affair, sod at two
o'clock promptly, the calvacade mode it
start for the park, in the following
order 1
Grand Marshal Clark and Aide.
Bend of fourteen pieces, Astoria Mu
sicians' Union.
Barouche, in which were Hon. Hernutn
Wise, mayor of Astoria; Hon. Thomas
A. Meltrlde, circuit judge; Rer. V. Sey
mour Short, chaplain of the day; City
Surveyor A. S. Tee. official custodian of
the park.
Carriage, containing John E. Gratka
and family.
Carriage containing August Hilde
brand and family.
School children on foot
Tha beautiful park site was reached
promptly at 3 o'clock and fully 500
people were in, waiting, none of whom
were deterred from marching by the hot
weather experience of the day before,
ami which, it wa feared might be re
peated yesterday afternoon.
No time was lot in carrying out the
exercises of the hour once the grounds
were reached, and to the strains of
"America," by the band, the stars and
stripe were raised to the top of the
children' flag-staff and by the children
themselves. '
Prayer wo then offered by Rev. Win.
Short wholly applicable to the hour and
the event .after which the band played,
and the people sang ."Columbia, the
Gem of the Ocean."
Mayor Wise then gave a brief history
of the park site, it location and choice,
the initial steps of its development; and
spoke in kindly, glowing term of its
future as a pleasure ground for thou
sand yet unborn, ne spoke of the
necessities of work, the rarer duty of
fighting, and all the arduous task of
man, and bade the piple remember
there was something elso in life beside
work and struggle and contention, and
that was play, relaxation, enjoyment
and. rent; and to these latter phase of
human indulgence the park was then,
and forever, devoted and dedicated.
After the " mayor , had closed Mr.
Grntke took a snapshot of the scene, and
the people slowly dispersed, to seek
such further enjoyment as the place
afforded.
' By twos, and threes and dozens they
re traversed the (descending routes to
the city to be in time for the other day
light features of the day's program of
sports' audi as the aerial day-fire-works,
and the balloon ascension. The latter
event did not take place at all, and
many were seriously disappointed in
the failure of this spectacular feature.
The aerial fire-work were despatched
by Chairman Mnx Fold, at Eleventh and
Duane streets, and were genuinely in
teresting. Tht Mardl Gras parade last night
drew hundreds of people on the streets,
and proved a great success. The unique
an dmonstrous creations and eutumes
were the cause of much amusement, and
was one of the best feature of the
eelcbation thut far, Maud, the. colored
supplement mule, was In. evidence, and
her comical antics were hugely enjoyed
by the crowd. After the parade the
committee awarded the prises for the
licit make-ups, a follows
