~~ Its Report,
The parade committes of the Fourth
d the following report: to the
‘al Committee ae ee
pur committee to whom was delefed the task of passing jadgment on
porated carriages, floats and bicycles
leave to report: .
That the parade presented so many
striking and beautiful conceptions in.
ithe way of decorative effect that it was
at any conclasion as to what.was most
meritorious, The parade as a whole
may be’ fairly said to be a: credit to
the city and county, “and would compare favorably. with those of much
larger communities.
As to prizes for floats, we do not
hesitate to say that if the Goddess of
Liberty was not barred from competition, we should have awarded the first
prize to that float. And this remark
does not in fact detract from the
oredit due to other decorated vehicles.
Phat we recommend the following
prizes:
Best decorated carriage—Oalifornia
poppy, N. D.G. W. of Grass Valléy\
Floate—Best, Shakespeare Olub; 2d
best, Piety Hill Hose Oo, No. 5.
Bicyles—Ruth Moore.
We are ‘sorry the Committee did not
provide a prize for the best trap, The
vehicle decorated in red carnations and
occupied by the Native Daughters displayed marked akill and taste, and deserves a prize.

Committee.
No Aceldents.
With all the concourse of people
that filled our streets yesterday and
in the passing to and fro of vebicles,‘
together with the movements fncident
to forming the big parade, not an accident occurped to mar the day’s pleasure. This was a noticeable fact and
was freely commented upon by many.
The peace of the city as far as fights
‘were concerned was unbroken with the
exception of a little difficulty that
could hardly be designated as a
“scrap.” :
Last Night's Alarm.
Shortly after eight o’clock last evening an alarm of fire was turned in
on account of a blaze that occurred
on a float, in which were seated
several little girls. Bystanders soon
washed to the childrens’ aid and exScrap Sunday Night
There was a hot time on Broad street
for a short time Sunday night, when
two well-known men got into a mixup. A friend of one of the belligerents jumped in to etop the scrap, and
had his eye-glasses badly smashed.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is isonly one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitational
remedies. Deafness is caused by en inflamed condition of the mucous ning
of the Eustachian Tube. When the
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
souhd or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness isghe resalt, and anless ‘he inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its pormal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Oatarrh, which is
nothing bat an near condition of
ucous services.
‘We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
eatarrh) that cannot be cdred by
Hall’s Catarrh Oure. Send for circulars, free.

Yesterday was an ideal one for the
celebration of the Nation’s birthday,
and from early morning antil late at
night people kept coming into town
and the principal business streets were
packed and thronged with humanity.
The day was ushered in by the ringing of bells and the firing of salutes
and passed off without serious accident to either individuals or property.
The celebration of the 128th Anniversary of American Independence has
now passed into. history, but the fact
remains that the demonstration at Nevada Oity was one of the moat satisfactory and successful of any that has
ever been given in the county and that
Nevada City has covered herself with
glory and acqaitted herself with credit
in the efforts made to entertain the
outside public.
Besides the multitude of people
which came from interior towns, adjoining counties and other sections of
the State, there was a tremendous
throng of visitors who came from
Grass Valley to assist in making the
celebration the great success that it
was. From Grass Valley alone it is
estimated that there was fully 8000
patriotié people who came to the
county seat, abd in fact the rush for
traneportation accommodations was so
great that the Nevada Oounty Traction
Comp:ny wae unable to handle the
passenger traffic on the electric road
notwithstanding that four care were
worked to their full-capacity. But this
was more than supplicd by the accommodating officials of the Nevada
County Narrow Gauge Railroad, who
also ran excarsion cars to and from
Grass Valley, and ran a special return
train at night so that everybody was
accommodated and no one discommoded to any great extent.
MORNING PARADE.
The morning parade proved to be
the grandest-and finest pageant of the
kind ever seen in Nevada county and
people from neighboring towos and
afar were profuse in their flattering
comment as to ite great merit. The
procession wae @ long and elaborate
one but wae admirably formed and
maneuvered by Grand Marshal Herman Brand and his corpe of efficient
aides. ,
Shortly after 11 o’clook the big pageant moved down Broad street in the
following order:

LITERARY EXEROISES.
The literary exercises at the theatre
were of an unuaually attractive nature
and were conceded as a whole to be the
best ever rendered in Nevada county.
The hall was filled to the doots, and
many were anable to gain admission
to the edifice, The stage and proscenjum of the theatre was beautifully and
tastfully decorated with the national
colors, and 3 large American flag
formed an appropriate background to
the throne occupied by the Goddess of
Liberty. The scene as a whole was
a beantifal and inspiring one and reflected great credit on the merit of the
hendiwork of the decorators. :
The aseemblage was called to order
by Mayor Ohapman, president of the
day. After the Boys’ Band had pleyed

wae the finest ever given in this city.
The chorus of singers next sang the
selection entijied “Union and Liberty,”
which was nicely rendered.
The literary exercises were exceptionally good, and all who attended
were delighted with the program rendered. Admiral B. O. MoOalle of the
United States Navy, the orator of the
day, delivered one of the moat.inetructive end interesting addressees ever
eiven in thie city, and he held the andivided attention of his audience from
beginning to end. Although no orator, ae he anoouaced on the start, he
reviewed the achievements and history
of the United States Army and Navy
from the Revolutionary War until the
present time in a masterly and spirited
manner. The great accomplishments
and eervice rendered by Uncle Sam’s
boys of the Army and Navy in the
Philippines, mach of which came under bis own personal observation aud
experience, were recited in graphic
style, and he paid a high tribate to
the great work doné by the defenders
of the American Nation. In concluding. hie remarks the Admiral paid a
high compliment to the work just begun by the Navy League to secure the
building of a large and efficient Navy
to defend and care for this country’s
welfare on the water, and stated that
the branch League just organized here
waa the first in the interior of the
State to take action in this important
matter, and join with the head or.
ganization of the State to accomplish
the end desired. The speaker emphatically rged the necessity of
America having one of the best equipped and competent navies in the world
and that in case of sea war with a
foreign power the people of the Pacific
Ooast would be the first to approiate
the great benefit and protective power
of the same. At the close of the Ad
miral’s remarke be was greeted with
prolonged applause.
The mext namber was a musical
selcotion by a chorus of male singers
and. wae excellently given, William
Moore of Grass Valley leading-as e0loist. ses
The stage was then cleared and a
flag drill by s'xteen young misses from
our public schools was given and
proved to be a novel and one of. the
most pleesing features of entire exerclees. The young ladies were all handscmely cost umed in National golors and each carried a beautiful
the occasion. To march music of piano
and orchestra they went through the
drill without a flew, and executed the
many difficult movements with a preec aion. and esse that won for them a
great outburst of applause when they
ceded to be one of the Anest features
of thie kind ever given in the city and
reflected great credit ot the inetractor, Miss Gertrade Goyne, who so
