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. GOVERNOR COMER SPEAKS AT MOBILE CELEBRATION.
