The celebration of the 125th an niversary of the nation's natal day began about nine o'clock the even- ng before by a continuous tusilade of revolvers, guns, small cannons and fireworks. This pcrlormance waB kept up until after midnight, when the performers went to bed lor a few hours and then began again. The morning opened auspiciously so far as the weather was concerned, but later old Sol gave everybody a hot time. Dur ing the early morning the usual gun powder was burned in the var ious forms. The formal opening of the day began with a parade at ten o'clock. This was a feature that entitled the committee to considerable praisc--it was first-class in all re spects. Major Scharmaun acted as marshal of the day. The parade was headed by a platoon of police followed by the city officials and orators of the day in carriages, Then came the band, a G. A.
