THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.
Before another issue of the Ga
zette has reached its readers, the
citizens of this grand common
wealth will have celebrated that
holiday of holidays, the 119th
birthday of the independence of
our country. Another Fourth of
July is approaching. The speed
ing years bring around this great
anniversary of brave deeds and
brave resulta so rapidly that the
music of one celebration scarcely
dies away in the distance until we
begin it all over again. Yet, it is
just, honorable and right, for this
is the brightest, the sunniest and
the saddest day of our calendar.
The saddest when we think of the
treasure of life that our national
independence cost, and the bright
est and the sunniest when we con
template the proud position that
our republic has achieved, and the
encouragement it has afforded those
seekiug liberty from every quarter
of the globe.
Next Thursday is the Fourth of
July; the ly when American pa.
triotism should be at its highest
pitch; when the American people
will with one common impulse
band themselves together in al
most every city, village and hamlet
to pay honor and tribute to thone
patriotic men who laid the fouuda
tiou fir the greatewt, grandest and
strongest nation on the facn of the
earth. While it in taio that om
condition today is not what it hnB
been iu years past, yet, compared
with other nations we have no
cause for regret So, on next
Thursday let all who possibly can,
join in appropriately celebrating
our nation's birthday, and let the
heart of every true American swell
with duo pride that we are still
under tlitnlmilow of that grand old
emblem, the stars and stripes, the
Hag of an united republic, whose
difl'erent sections are animated by
a coinmou hope, a common inspi
ration and a common destiny.

POSING AT THE PIANO.
Paderewski Thlnki That Pianists Should
Look Effective While Playing. v
When Paderewski was in New York
he was calling at a prominent Wall
street man's home in Fifth avenue
when the broker told him he would
like to have his opinion of his daugh
ter's playing, says the jfew York Jour
nal. The great pianist courteously re
plied that nothing would give him
greater pleasure.
After the young lady had dashed off
several selections Paderewski said:
"To set the greatest enjoyment from
the piano the music must not only be
heard but the performer should be
seen. The performer should therefore
be careful of his or her position at the
instrument.
"I will be frank with you ana say
that I nref erred to see rather than hear
vour daughter play. I might better
sav that, I looked more than I listened.
SV, held herself correctly. There is
nothing I hate more than a listless,
careless posture of the body while
playing.
"Then there was life in her touch.
Her fingers fairly sparkled as they ran
over the board and touched the keys,
rebounding from them with a snap
that was exhilarating to behold. Her
manner of using her hands and her el
bowing, if I may so call it, showed
proper training also.
. "I will therefore add that my sense
of hearing would have been equally de
lighted, doubtless, if my 6ense of sight
had not been so completely monopo
lized. I complimented the young lady
on her accomplishment.
"There is wisdom in that," said the
broker, in repeating the conversation,
"Teachers of the piano should give far
more attention to this matter than they
now do."
