LET THE EAGLE SCREAM. ]
Are you going to observe "Independ
ence Day"? We venture to soy Huit you
-.atd'-not*;-<:Mio good old Fourth nf j^Jlif*.
shoijllt Is* good enough for boys and
men with good red blood In their veins.
We had Just ns well submit gracefully
to forty-eight hours of noise. We have
figured It all out many a time that pa
, . ti iollsm Is not shown by « series of ex-'
plosions, but somehow our theories fall
to work out In practice. Even while the
editor la engaged In looking Into fhd
philosophy, psychology nnd Hie meta
physics of the event, the boys Just bf
yond the window are celebrating lu u'
more direct and practical way; Bang!,
Whlxs! Bourn! Thus all arguments are
met, all fine distinctions exploded along
with the crackers.
1
He it so; most of us were boys once;
in fact, since we come to think of It,
that has been the state uf all of us.
True, in a former generation there was
less noise.
When a nervous old lady
or an irritable old unele bade
us be
quiet, of course we obeyed.
But the
latest edition of young America must
have Us noise, and he
who
1 s rush
enough to protest must bear the eonse
quenees.
Well, we are told that 127 years ago
there was a struggle between English
men and Americans, and Huit Hie cause
was taxation without representation.
That L* a mistake; it minimizes the real
rcope, purpose and meaning of our
Revolution.
Just get down the history
of England and turn to that page which
chronicles the event ot Hie year 1215.
That was the beginning; the American
Revolution was the climax. It remain
ed tor the Anglo-Huxon In America to
construe the English BUI ot Rights.
Tbe treaty ot peace marked the end ot
tyranny. From that event, not only
America, but England dates her eman
cipation. Canada remained loyal to the
crown, but Hie success of the Revolu
tion proved her virtual emancipation.
Ellice that event England lias been able
to count upon the loyalty of her col
onies, although they are field to her by
bonds that are almost entirely senti
mental. The American Revolution war
a struggle of the people against the
prerogatives of the crown, and Hie re
bellion happened on this side of
the
water because it
vas our branch ol
the race that was oppressed. It niark
ed u great forward stride for the Anglo
Baxon race, and paved the way for Its
supremacy in world affairs a little over
a hundred years later.
Far this icusuii the day will be cele
brated ln England, und in her colonies.

we were the object of Englinh Jealousy.

TO ABANDON THE RACE.
The practical decision of the Water
Commission to locate the pumping
station at a point further up the Bran
dywine will arouse conflicting opinions.
An the plant will he located on an ele
vation at least fifty feet higher than
at present, and ns the distance through
which the water will have to be pump
ed will be greatly reduced, a vast sav
ing through the course of years will re
sult.
But It seems that the beautiful open
race along the Brandywine will lie
abandoned tor want of further use.
This Is one of the most attractive fea
tures of the park. The Brandywine
may be almost dry, but the water of
the race flows on In an undlmlnlshed
stream. To abandon the race would
leave an unsightly cut that would have
to be filled up and sodded over. There
would he general regret should It ho

THAT DINNER AT SHERRY'S.

Vain War Against Ritualism.
From the Now York Mall and Express.
In his letter to the English clergy
man Filllngham, who has evidently
come to this country to try to make
trouble for the ritualistic churches.
Bishop Potter distinctly transgressed
the Scriptural command. "Answer not
a fool according to his folly, lest thou
be like unto him.'' The Rev. Mr. Fll
llnglium's raid is bused on the notion
that the Protestant Episcopal Church
In this country Is somehow a state In
stitution, like the English Church, and
Is open to the resistance of any crunk
who may come along to make protest
on the ground that his constitutional
Magna Charta guaranteed rights to
see Just such und such vestments und
no other, to hear Just such and such
times and no other, are being violated.
This Is not the basis on which the
American church ts run. It was quite
open to the Rev. Mr. Flllingham to save
his feelings from the shock which they
received at 8 t. Mary Hie Virgin's by
going to All Souls'.
Chicago Diamonds.
From the. New York Times.
The assurance of Professor Alfa
Robinson Crook that the alluvial beds
on which Chicago Is bullded are full of
diamonds deposited there by the gla
cial drift of the Ice Age will doubtless
ifford the good people of that city
great satisfaction. It It should cause
1 stampede from the barrtm ureas of
the Northwest, add a few millions to
the population of Chicago, and greatly
enhance the value of Its real estate.

In order to accommodate tike rush of

who go in the surf has nearly reached
