Norfolk had no pnblio celebration of
the nations birthday but her citizens
very generally observed the day in one
way or another Tho weathor was of
the kind popularly attributed to the day
hot with threats of showers and
thunderstorms dnring tho afternoon
There were picnics nnd family parties
in abundance while a great many went
to neighboring towns where celebrations
wero held
Perhaps the largest number of people
went to Madison and assisted county
seat citizens in an enthusiastic observ
ance of the day Many drove over nnd
the 1 1 oclock Union Pacific passenger
was crowded with exuursiouistB The
town was nicely decorated and a vigor
ous effort to show visitors a good time
was put forth A parade was one of the
features of the day and tho usual exer
cises of musio and speaking wero held
Judge W M Robertson of this city
made the oratiou of the day and those
who heardhim speak in flattering terms
of his address A ball game between
the Madison nnd Norfolk jnnior leaguers
was a feature of the sports tho former
team winning by n score of 0 to 2 A
fine display of fireworks in the evening
caused a nnmber of Norfolk people to
miss their train it having been reported
that the train would be held until after
the display Those who drove came in
dnring all honrs of the night somo not
getting home until this morning
The officers employes and patients of
the Norfolk hospital for the insane ob
served the day in an enjoyable and pa
triotic manner a number of people from
the city participating A base ball
game between a nine composed of the
patients nnd a picked nine of employes
and others was witnessed by the other
patients and employes with much inter
est Lawn tennis was among the sports
enjoyed there being games during the
forenoon and afternoon The magnifi
cent new flag one of the largest in the
state was raised and allowed to float
during the day from the flag staff of the
institution It had been planned to
serve the patients with supper on the
lawn but tho threatening wenther inter
fered and they were served with nn ex
tra spread in the dining room Guests
of the officers were served in tho parlor
of Dr and Mrs Teal After the supper
the patients wero assembled on tho
northwest corner of the grounds wheie
a fine display of fireworks was shown
A lnrge number of Norfolk people drove
out o see tho display and were wll re
paid for their attendance Tho displiy
was not as largo as might have been
had not sparks ignited one box of the
explosives nnd cana d an independent
and somewhat mixed discharge not
down on tho program The patients
appeared to thoroughly enjoy every
feature of the celebration and the offi
cers feel that their efforts in behalf of
the states charges were not in vain
Similar exercises by direction of the
state board were held at all like institu
tions of the state
Tafts grove south of tho city was a
popular resort for picnickers and besides
tho family nnd neighborhood picnics
there was a large and well planned af
fair participated in by members of B B
lodge No 1 of South Norfolk This
organization was formed at a social
some time ago with a membership of 20
and its rolls now disclose about 90 mem
bers with more applications to act on
It was formed for social purposes parlia
mentary practices etc and is composed
largely of yonug people C J Chap
man IB a leading and enthusiastic mem
ber of the society It now hns several
degrees of secret work and more are to
be added soon They went to the grove
well prepared for a day of pleasure but
the storm that threatened cut their
pleasures short and they returned home
early in the afternoon Before eating
their picnio dinner the officers of the
lodge were installed with impressive
and interesting ceremonies Mr Chap
man acting as installing officer Origi
nal odes were enng and the excercises
were highly interesting all the picuick
era in the grove being invited to attend
A party of about 00 people from the
West Side picnicked at Tafts until the
storm threatened early in the afternoon
when they returned to town and fin
ished their celebration on the lawn at
the home of Mr and Mrs J N Bun
dick
Another picnio party that started the
day on the banks of the Northfork river
finished their celebration on the lawn at
the home of Mr and Mrs A J Dur
