The eagle screamed louder Thursday
and raoro powder was burned with the
help of the small boy and the big boy
than on ony Fourth of July within tho
memory of somo of the oldest Inhabi
tants.
It waa a good, old-fashtoned holiday,
with plenty of noise; with the cork
pulled all the way out ot the patriotism
bottle and with the pictures of Mr. O.
Washington largely In evidence.
All Atlanta quit work and proceeded
to celebrate. More etaree were closed
than ever before, and Inetead of a
Fourth ot the old town seemed
like Sunday, with a noise added.
Dealers In fireworks did more busi-
vled with one another In eeelng who
could make the noleleet demonetratton.
Despite the lynx-eyed cope, thousands
upon thousands of noisy explosives
were placed upon the street car tracke,
and from morning until night poseen-
gers on the cars had experiences simi
lar to that provided on a certain third
of July some years ago for a Mr.
Ccrvera at Santiago,
Parks Running Ovsr.
Mixed with thla sort of a celebration
were other kinds which come with a
day of rest and absence from work.
The parks were crowded with pleas-
urs-aeekers and the place* ot amuse
ment did a land ofilce business.
A couple of baseball games. In which
the Cracker* celebrated the day nt the
expense of Montgomery, drew a record-
breaking crowd, while matinees at the
Casino, Orond and Pastime theaters
drew full houses. The Red Men gath
ered at Piedmont Park In the morning
and heard Don Carey read the Decla
ration of Independence, the paper which
put King George II wise to certain
things ho nover dreamed of before, and
at night they hold their annual parade,
marked throughout by a glare of red
fire.
Thousands visited Ponce DeLeon.
White City, Shut Lake and other re
sorts, where shade, cool brasses and
cool drlnka might be secured. The
Rural Letter Carrier.' Association cale.
brated with one of the biggest conven
tions In the history of the organisa
tion, and they listened to speeches from
Senator Clay, Oovernor lloke Smith,
Congressmen James M. Griggs and
others. After their business was over,
they Joined the merry throng and help,
ed make the eagle scream.
Hardly An Accident.
..nd with alt the noisy and explosive
celebration, there were no fatalities nor
even serious Injuries. Though patriotic
and enthusiastic, the young Americans
ot Atlanta evidently were cautloua and
eaw the cannon crackere first. Of
course, there were some with slight
burns, but the casualties reported from
all over the country were not swelled
by any from Atlanta.
Not only at the hospital, but with
the police, was the day a quiet one.
There wee little disorder, the patrol
wagons felled to work overtime and the
day was gsnerally voted by the cops as
one of the most orderly holidays in At
lanta's history.
Bummed up. It was a grand day for
the eagle. The old bird screamed the
limit and finished th* day In a blase
of multi-colored fireworks, while the
British lion took to the tall Umber, hit
tall drooping and his claws clipped.
TO ERECT MONUMENT
TO GENERAL MAHONE.
Forty men. women and children are
dead and 2,171 are'maimed and burned
os a result of yesterday's patriotism
In the United States. The number of
dead does not Include five drowned dur
ing the day.
The roster of dead Is four more than
last year's mortality. A year ago thir
ty-three persons were dead on the
morning after the Fourth, not Including
five drowned.
Death Roll Increases.
Unfortunately, the death roll will
Increase day by day,' and even the late
days of August will witness additional
numbers. Tetanus, that grim after-
math of gunpowder wounds, claims Its
victims by scores and even by hun
dreds for weeks after the Fourth.
New York leads the cities of the
United States In the number of killed
and Injured. Ten persons are dead In
that city, whllo six more are so se
riously Injured that it Is expected they
will die In a few hours.
Pittsburg Near Front.
Pittsburg, Pa., ran a close second to
New York In (he grim race, nine per
sons yielding up their lives on the altar
ot frenzied patriotism. Chicago, al
though the second city of the Union,
had only two deaths.
Springfield, 111., supplied three vic
tims; Chatham, III., two, and Aberdeen,
S: Dak., two. The following places
furnished one victim each:
Des Moines; Effingham, 111.; Green
up. III.; Harrisburg, Pa.; Hartford,
Conn.; Kansas City, Kans.; M<
ller, Vt.; Spokane, Wash.; Terry,
New Orleans, La.; Gadsden, Ala.; Ce
dar Rapids, Iowa.
Injured List Is Less.
The total number of Injured, 2,172, Is
under last year's figures, which were
2,789.
Tho causes of fbo 2.112 injuries show
that fireworks wpre responsible for
1,046 cases, gunpowder for 241 and
firearms for 292. Cannon added 222,
while toy pistols. came next with 205,
and runaways, caused by explosions,
mode up the other 41 Injured.
