Mayor Commends Residents of
District for Progressiveness
in Founding Park
More than 12,000 persons; of the Mis
sion district attended the celebration
at the Mission playground in Dolores
street between Eighteenth and Nine
teenth. The gentle slope on the south
and west part of the park was crowded
vith men, women and children, who,
with the exception of those forming
the rear row, were seated on the grass
in a position which afforded all an
admirable view of the platform, on
which the exercises were held. On
this were seated the following, who
have been exceedingly active in se
curing this beautiful park and play
ground for the little ones:
H. J. McCoy, president of the play
ground commission; Rev. Father D. O.
Crowlry, Eustace Cullinan, David J.
Albcrga. Frederick Meyer, George Wal
com. Supervisor Oscar Hocks, A. B.
Maeuire, F- J. Churchill and A. P. Van
I>u«er.
I»RIEST COMMENDS LOYALTY
Just before the first number on the
program Father Crowley, his kindly
face illuminated with a smile, looked
at the vast assemblage before him, the
women 3n varicolored dresses and an
immense number of children in the
foreground, remarked: "What a beau
tiful and picturesque living picture this
Is. The gathering speaks well for the
people of this district, who in such
numbers have neglected opportunities
to go to other entertainments in order
to prove their loyalty to this district."
The president of the playgrounds
commission in a few words in which he
introduced the Rev. Father Crowley as
chairman of the day said that he was
delighted to see so many children as
sembled, declaring that children are of
the greatest value to the community
and that too much can not be done for
them. San Francisco, he said, has
promised them much, has done much
and will do much for them, and as
as San Francisco has never broken a
promise the children will have the finest
playgrounds in the whole country. He
then presented the chairman, who was
received with prolonged cheers and loud
hand clapping.
i lIAIKMAX PRAISES PARK
The chairman announced that he did
not desire to make a speech, but could
not forego the opportunity to return
thanks for the beautiful park and
playgrounds and to thank those who
had been instrumental in bringing this
about.
"The people of this district needed a
park," said he, "and through the Mis
sion improvement club and those who
preceded them it was secured, and let
me say that the good women of the
Mission did much to bring about this
result."
The orchestra, after playing a medley
of patriotic airs, commenced "The Star
Spangled Banner." and the vast audi
ence arose, the men remaining uncov
ered until the wind wafted away the
last strains of the national anthem.
Eustace Cullinan delivered a short
oration full of patriotic utterances and
dwelt particularly on the duty of the
rising; generation in the line of good
citizenship, urging the young people to
study well the principles of those who
made this great republic possible and
to live up to them so that they might be
an honor to the city, state and nation.
Mme. Tojetti e&ng "The Star Span
srle<s Banner" and. while ahe was sing
ing, curtains at the rear of the plat
form were drawn and there was pre
sented to view a magnificent tableaux
entitled "The Mission Dolores." A
view of the old mission made up the
background, while over an elevation
on which was seated a young girl rep
resenting California under a large mis
sion bell of eschscholtzias entwined
with garlands. In front and on either
plde were groupings of young children
in national costume typical of the cos
mopolitan character of the city's popu
lation.
CHIRCHIIX READS DECLARATION
Frederick J. Churchill, secretary of
the Mission improvement club, read the
major portion of the declaration of in
dependence and, as he reached the clos
ing paragraph he was interrupted by
the arrival of an automobile contain
ing Mayor P. H. McCarthy and mem
bers of his family. His appearance
was greeted with loud cheers and, after
being introduced, he spoke from the
auto. He said:
• "To see so many persons, and par
ticuluarly so many children here, makes
me feel good and in a great measure
assuages the pain I have suffered In
the east and on my way here.
"It is very pleasant to look into your
childish faces and hear your childish
yokes. This outing on the nation's
birthday augurs well for the Mission.
This beautiful park is but one of a
j !-*ln of parks and playgrounds that
:ijß city will provide for recreation for
v^e older people and for the pleasure
of the little ones. You of this dis
trict have much for which to thank
that matchless man who has taken
such a deep Interest in your welfare.
Rev. Father Crowley. I want to as
sure you that I i«hall do all in my
power* to promote playgrounds for all
parts of the city."
Laura "A. Cotton rendered "Let Me
Like a Soldier Die," from "Maritani,"
and was loudly applauded.
I RGBS LOCAL PATROXAGB
. D. J. Alberga delivered a short ad
dress on home industry, urged the
people of the Mission to patronize all
that is produced there and declared
that one of the productions of the
territory Is the children, which, if seen
by Teddy Roosevelt, would induce him
to change his views on race suicide.
Supervisor Hocks and A. P. Van
l»uzer made very short talks on pa
triotic lines, after which the remain
der of the program was carried out
up follows:
' Dance, "Pride of the Navy." E.
O"l>eary, E. O'Connor, E. Printy, J.

cornet in hand, for the speaker and
Mfkp-1, "What's that? "What's that?"
When he was told he returned to his
leadership.
In a few moments the cry of "Extra"
by newsboys was heard in the lower
end of the park and thousands made
a rush to read of the, fight..
One man in the crowd had a \u25a0 copy
of a paper, on the final page of which
was the announcement in large black
type "Jeff wins" and underneath was
a portrait of Jeffries.
"Hov.-'s this?"', asked another man in
the crowd and he opened a copy of
the same paper, on which appeared In
the same size type "Jack wins" with
a portrait of Johnson. The two men
held the papers side by side, looked
at each other and one of them said,
"You paid your money; I paid mine.
We can take our choice."
In the evening there was' a band
concert and fireworks.
EXERCISES ARE HELD AT
SOUTH SIDE PLAYGROUND
Patriotic exercises, commemorating
the one hundred and thirty-fourth an
niversary of the declaration of Inde
pendence. wer<? held yesterday after-,
noon at the Southside playground, Sev- (
enth and Harrison streets. The pro
gram of orations and music was closed ;
with a beautiful tableau entitled
"Spirit of "76."
The exercises were held in the center
of the plaza upon a broad platform,
which was decorateJ with large Amer
ican flags. The front of the stage was
open anJ was reserved for the speak
ers, while th 3 rear half was partitioned
off by a large red curtain, behind which
50 children of the Franklin grammar
school were arranged In colonial cos
tume in the tableau.
In the center of the tableau stood
three children, representing the grand
father, father and, son in the- mem
orable picture of the "Spirit of '76." On
the right stood three soldiers of the
British army, while on the left stood
three continental soUiers. In the cen
ter and clustered around the goddess
of liberty were 25 little girls dressed
In the colonial stylo.
The program opened with the assem
blage singing the "Star Spangled Ban
ner," after which William Hutton, as
chairman of the day. made a short ad
dress, explaining the motives which
prompted the citizens to observe this
day. • He then introduced Supervisor
•John A. Kelly, who delivered the ad
dress of the day. In part Kelly spoke
as follows:
I would not call the annual ob
servance of Independence day ex
actly a celebration. I would say
that it is more in the nature of a
nationwide anniversary that em
braces not alone exuberance for the
patriotic youth, but solemn thought
and reflection for the generations
that are passing and likewise bud
ding among us. Not alone should
there be a mighty expression of
national joy at the thought of our
country's freedom, but there should^
at the same time be a due appre
ciation felt among all elements of
the people, young and old, for the
actual meaning of our liberty, the
price at which it was obtained and
• the lessons it left for us to profit
by.
That glorious document of his
tory, the declaration of inde
pendence, was not the mere product
of a normal evolution. Rather was
it the grim and logical climax of a •
period of oppression and personal
unhappiness, the tortures and pri
vations of which we shall never be
able properly to gauge in our own
minds. While our cannon boom,
our bright flag streams in the
breeze, our fresh and uniformed
hosts march to the cadence of mar
tial music, and our gay streamers
and banners proclaim the joy an.l
merriment of a loyal people, let us
pause long enough to ask the chil
dren of today to consider the price
at which the nation's liberty was
obtained and the sacrifices made
upon the altar of patriotism that
this American flag might float
above us today, unchallenged and
unstained. The greatest nation of
the earth, clad In all its boundless
wealth, beauty, strength and gran
deur, should stand forth oh each
occasion such as this and do hom
age to those sterling pathfinders
and builders who by their unparal
leled acts of valor and patriotism
made possible the existence of this
republic.
The declaration of independence was
read by Joseph Courregeous of the Co
lumbia Park boys' club.
A southern dance by Evelyn and Ma
bel Wallance, fancy dancing by Abby
Tilsley anJ gymnastics by the boys and
girls of the Elntracht turn verein were
features of the exercises.
In the evening there was a display of
fancy fireworks. Among the figures
represented in the display were those
of George Washington and Theodore
Roosevelt.
EXEMPT-FIREMEN MAKE
MERRY AT BANQUET
The few remaining members of the
exempt flre company *of the volunteer
department and their guests celebrated
the anniversary of independence by a
breakfast yesterday at a local cafe.

Day We Celebrate," and F. C. Hensley
to the toast 61 "The City of San Fran-
C I SCO — old and Xew," after which a
number of those present recalled inci
dents of the old volunteer days, when
the boys ran with the old machines
