OLD LIBERTY BELL Will Be Brought to St. Louis for the fair. (Journal Special Service.) ST. LOUIS, July .-The Louisiana Pur chase Exposition management has deter mined to bring if possible the old "Lib erty BelK' from Philadelphia to St. Louis for exhibition at tha World's Fair in 1904, If the effort is successful. II will, be the lrt visit to the territory west of the Mississippi River of this sacred, me mento of the early days of American In dependence. ' ' .' '" ''' A psychic influence is in the prophetic inscription of the bell. "Proclaim Liberty throughoa all the-land unto all the in habitant 8 thereof-Levitlcus XXV. 10." cast on It a quarter of a century before It accomplished Its epochal task of calling the colonies to the' first public reading of the Declaration of Independence, six Score and six years ago, There is grai float Ion to the morbid and sehtlmental hint at the mutability of things In the crack which has parted the sounding lip of Liberty Bell and silenced it forever. Persons who do not know ask with sur passing Interest how the . bell came by the 'crack, and are disappointed to learn that It came, not in fire or battle, but from the Impact of its own clapper on July 8, 1835. while tolling- the funeral of John Marshal. It was cast In London In 1752, and It was cracked by a blow of Its own clapper a month after It was hung in the State House at Philadelphia. Pass & Stow; Americans, recast it on the same model and with the same main Inscription. The first recasting waa un satisfactory and it was recast again. Contrary to the popular impression, the bell did not ring at Philadelphia on July . 1776, after the passage of the Declara tion of Independence. Its servtca to American independence was that It called the colonists to a public meeting at t State House on July 8. 1778, at which the Declaration of - Independence was first proclaimed. - '. If Liberty Beir comes to St. Louis It will be the sixth journey which the bell has taken.- The bell's first Journey was from Philadelphia to Aljentown in 1777, to save it from falling into- the hands of the British, when the Americans evacu ated Philadelphia. The other four Jour neys of the bell have been to American expositions: To Chicago in 1883; to At lanta lfc 1895: "to New Orleans, on the East bank of the Mississippi River, In 1885, and to' Charleston . in 1801. .
