Celebration

(he D»y.

The Biggest Crowd Since the Centennial Year 4th.

Two Processions, Running Race Shooting, Sham Battle, Fire Works, &c.

How it Was Celebrated at Various PlacBS.

Xo Lack of Patriotism Evinced.

How the Smaller Towns Did.

From Saturday's Daily.

Perhaps people will quit pooh-hoohing Terre Haute's Fourth ot July celebrations now. A great many citizens there were who needed urging to give any support to the celebration, and many persisted in saying we wouldn't have a crowd. A few took hold of the matter, worked real hard and the result is that Terre Haute's crowd far#surpassed all her sister cities in the si ate. Yesterday was hotter than anticipated in the morning. But, then, nobody cared. The Fourth of July wouldn't seem natural if it was cool. And, besides, with all the delightful hills that surrotind the town there are plenty of places where a person can keep comfortable. As early as four o'clock in tne morning wagons commenced entering the city. The trains were all fairly crowded. A nice delegation came in from Decatur, and in spite of the many counter attractions, at MardtM^l, Martinsville, Mattoon, Paris, R^akville and Montezuma, a large num: ber of of people prepared to visit the Prairie city, and see the superior sights.

Decorations were numerous, but not profuse nor particularly tasteful. Appended is a partial list of people who deserve credit:

The main attraction of the morning was the

HEWGAG PROCESSION.

The First and Fifth wards did about all the work that was done for this procession and deserve all the credit. The other wards were too lazy and the townships too busy to respond. The GAZETTE can forgive the farmers who have been pubhed with their harvesting but the neglect of the other wards of the city which, with a few exceptions, contributed nothing towards this prweession, is unpardonable. VVhen it is known how few workers there were, the results will seem much more deserving of praise. In this view the procession was a marked and decidcd success. People who went up town glum—if there were any 6uch were so amused with the comicality and utter absurbity of the procession that they were won into a good humor which lasted all day.

The curious parade was headed by the grand vizier, Monsieur Sinbad Alleyhaybad, (Mr. Louis Baganz) accompanied by his aids. Terre Haute is much indebted to Mr. Baganz for his efforts to make the procession a success.

The Ringgold band with eighteen members followed. A nameles gang followed the band and and after them, "The Indianapolis Ladie's Cornet Band," seated in a chariot drawn by five teams of horses. The ladies feet were big enough to have grown on a Lafayette belle. They are al blow-hards, and cottoH was in great demand as thev passed. Their services had been retained at vast expense by the First warders. They gave selections from all the composers and succeeded admirably in discomposing the crowd.

If they had tarried the throng would have delighed in gazing long on the "outfit" that followed. As a countryman said: "they were the dangdest crowd I ever seed." It was a panorama of the world and the queerest ot the lot were Hoosiers.

The Mulligan Guards' military band was v^ry much laughed at. All the odd looking mules, and outrageously shaped jackasses in the county were in the procession somewhere. Gen. Early and Col. McMahan headed a burlesque collection.

If music was scarce, musicians were plenty. At this point in the procession a particularly ludicrous crowd passed.

The

uFifth

Ward Heavy Guard,"

whose duty it was to protect the city in the absence of the Light Guard at Rockville, next filed by. Their rear was protected by "The Bagdad Light Artillery Company." Lafayette Mallory's big yellow horse drew a prodigious lot of rigging and iron chains to which was attached a diminutive toy cannon. The hit was a good one and, occasioned much mirth.

Next came the south end Light Guards. The funniestImngj in the whole procession was the emigrant's wagon. The scheme belongs to Charley Denny and Charley Dregma and is quite ingenious. These boys must evidently have eyed some North Carolina outfits bound for

Tout's silver cornet band fallowed next. An antediluvian mounted on a sleepy little mule ambled abstractedly in the wake of the band. He was probably dazed by the Terre Haute Kore Drum which followed. They were gorgeously uniformed. The Seventr. ward Kadets, seven in number, made a good hit.

A miscellaneous assortment of Indians followed. The last thing in the line *-as OLY BULL'S Orchestra, about as lively a crowd of NOISE-icians as ever were heard.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

Kansas, pretty closely. A cart had been Bell, P.

rigged up of old cast-off omnibus wheel* and odds and ends ot timber. A little bundle of straw depended from the rear, where also was fastened a cradle and child. The two heads et the family sat in front, both smoking pipes, with their bare feet hanging down and very muddy. All the details of poverty and laziness "on the move" were carefully copied, and occasioned a burst of laughter all along the line.

AWARD OF PRIZES.

The judges awarded the iiist prize ot $25 to the Fir&t ward, but decided that $5 of the money should go to the '"Drum lvore" from the Seventh ward. The Fifth ward received the second prize of

THE MILITARY PROCESSION.

After the Hewgag procession in the morning, the people scattered around the city and spent the day according to their own fashion. The military procession was to start at

The reserves of the fire department, under Chief Dickhout, presented a very neat appearance

The Tfcrre Haute Light Artillery, under Capt. Dreusike, made an excellent appearance, and notwithstanding the ponderous and bloodthirsty cannons they were in chaige of, the cannoners presented an altogether gentle and docile appearance.

The appearance of the Governor's Guards, under the command of Capt Hoctor, was very £ood, the beauty of their movements being greatly admired.

The inteiesting event of the profession, however, was the company of young men, the McKeen Cadets, under the command of Capt. Edward Friend. Their proficiency in the manuel of arm6, in so short space of time, was a universal remark about the town, as the young men have drilled with arms only six times. They made their appearance in blue shirt6 and caps, somewhat after the style of the Asbury Cadets of Greencastle. Through all the march they kept good ranks, interpreted the orders with the skill of old soldiers, and made altogether a fine soldier-like appearance.

The order of the procession was east on Main to Seventh, north on Seventh to Chestnut, and thence to the depot, arriving at which, Capt. Wheeler addressed the cdtnpantes present in a short speech, thanking them for their assistance in the procession and stating that he would not be here with them again, and hoped to hear encouraging reports of them in the future

The military were provided free transportation by the Vandalia road to the Fairgrounds.

AT THE FAIR GROUNDS.

Several thousand people were at the fairgrounds during the day, the crowd being unusually quiet and orderly, everybody seeming to have a good time.

THE EXERCISES.

At half past two the exercises were opened by the Ringgold Band playing 1 grand march. Rey. S, F. Dunham oner ing prayer and Mr. A.B.Croffroth read that well worn article, the Declaration of Independence in a fluent and graceful style. After a selection by Toute's Cornet band, Mr. J. C. Selman rendered Cornet solo in delightful style.

Mayor Havens then made a shert address. The exercises ended rather ab ruptly at this point. As none of the persons announced to speak were pres ent, which has caused a great deal of remark about the town, everybody wishing tp knowjwhether the gentlemen's patriot ism had been so soon drowned in a mug of beer. However, this abrupt ending of the exercises did not seriously mar the sale of beer, which continued as if nothing had happened.

THE SHOOTING MATCH.

The shooting match, of which there had been so much talk and conjecture took place late in the afternoon, aty) was the principal event of the afternoon. There were twenty-five contestants. Great care was taken by the marksmen to prevent accidents, which were successfully avoided. The only person coming any way near being 6hot was A. M. Buckingham, the referee of the match, who barely escaped, the bullet passing over the ear, just grazing his skin. The rules were breaking glass balls at twenty-one

After the first match had been concluded, SPECIMEN SHOOTING was done my Mr. George A. Schaal, using two Webel guns, loading himself, and shooting twenty-six times. Tom Sibley sprung the balls. The following was the score: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

Time, two minutes and twenty-four seconds, breaking twentv-five glass balls out of a possible twenty-six. Mr. Schaal's coolness and unpretending manner and the beauty of his shots have excited remark wherever he has shot. His marksmanship has been the best both in time and beauty of Fhots lhat has ever taken place in this city.

THE SHAM FIGHT.

was executed by the Governor's Guard* *nd the artillerists, and was an excellent display of military tactics. Captains Hoctor and Dreusike, two old powderburned heroes of the late war, gloried in the little struggle and managed their men very nicely. Space prevents a detailed account of this interesting event.

THE PEDESTRIAN CONTEST.

did not come off, as advertised, but Messrs. John Canada and J. H. Burnett ran a half mile instead. The distance wa9 made in three minutes and the race won by Canada, who made twenty dollars by the transaction. It was so desperately hot that both men suffered a good deal.

SURROUNDING TOWNS.

Mr. Blackledge says that Montazuma beat Rockville bodily. He estimates the crowd at Montazuma at ten thousand people. A grand old fashioned barbecue was a gi*eat attraction. One thing noticeable was that there was'nt a dog, a fight nor a drvnken man in Thcs. Blue's grove where the picnic was held. Speeches were made by a number of persons.

"V.

ROCKVILLE

made a big and a very successful display. They had present thirty-three of the Terre Haute Light Guards, also, the Montgomery Guards fro.n Crawfordsville and the Newport Guards. There was a hewgag procession and an im mense dinner.

A barrel of buttermilk saved for Will Haworth, who didn't go, was consumed by hi6 proxies.

The Light Guard executed some beautiful drill movements which so paralyzed their competitors that they declined to drill agaiDst them. Judge Crain, Mr. Johnsen and other gentlemen spoke.

AT PARIS

there was speaking and parading without end, and all were pleased. An immense train of Knights of Father Matthew ran from here.

Sullivan, Mattoon and Marshall also celebrated in good style. The following is the result of the Marshall races:

Burlington won the first race and $250, the purse being $400. First heat, Lady K., in 2:30 second heat, Burlington, 2:37 thi-d, Burlington, 2:4212", fourth Lady McD., 2:44^ fifth, Burlington, 2:42.

Pilot R. won the three-minute race in three straight heats. NOTES.

The Express tells thisistory One bet that was made was between two young fellows who had a beer-drink-iag match. In thirty minutes, one drank 27 and the other 28 glasses of beer. When last seen one was lying near the race track, using the other as a pillow. He was still able to articulate, and offered to eat thirty quails in thirty minutes.

Mr. E. Jackson's Mt. Pleasant dairy wagon wa sone of the prettiest things in the afternoon procession. It had been beautifully painted and decorated.

The drawing of Mr. J. E. Hughes' prize organ took place. Mrs. Eliza Dunn, who held ticket 195, won it. Everything was nicely conducted.

The crowd at the fair grounds has been variously estimated. No trains were run in the morning, but in the afternoon 1,641 tickets were sold.

THE SPBAKBFTS.

Mr. Editor: I am sorry indeed that the people ofTerre Haute and surrounding country have been deprived the great pleasure of seeing and hearing the great statesmen Colfax, Blaine, Conklin, McClain, Lamar, Donaldson, Gordon, Lamb, Hayes (President), with others of national prominence, who were invited to celebrate with us on the Fourth by the president of the occasion, Mayor Havens. The above-named gentlemen reply with terseness: "Can't." I regret still more, dear editor, when I learn that emperors, kings, a queen and a pope were expected among us, but whose negatives have disappointed all so sadly. The secretary on foreign relations, I understand, has in his pos&ession their replies. The following is supposed to be a true copy:

REPLY FROM QUEEN VICTORIA. Mr. President and Mayor:—Since the decease of my beloved husband I have made it a rule nevor to quit my kingdom except to visit the scenes associated with his early youth at Coberg. I pray your excellency, therefore to excuse me from accepting your invitation so kindly sent, and by me received.

Given at our Gin Palace on the Neva. FROM, THE KING AND EMPEROR WILHELM.

Mr. President:—I am old, a poor sailor, and 60 much occupied in counteracting the manoeuvres of my neighbors, as well the fallible as the infallible, that I have no expectation of ever again quitting my empire until I am obliged to do so, unless, perhaps, occasion should require me to visit Paris. I shall not fail, however, to be represented at your city. Besides the hundreds of my subjects, who, under a patriotism which only a Republican institution seems capable of inspiring, have "left their country for their country's good," and who will take an active part in your great celebration, I propose, however, to further celebrate the occasion by a general jail delivery oi my whole empire.

In order the better ta testify to your Excellency my high appreciation of the true mission of Republicanism. I propose to provide each of these subjects mv unprecedented clemency, with a free passage to your city and orders never to return to this Empire under the pains and penalties oi imprisonment for life. I feel that in no more suitable way than this can I interpret the sentiments of my government for the institutions of which you are one of the representatives, and the accumulated fruits of which you invite me to witness.

May the good Lord have your Mayorship in his keeping. Given at my palace at Babelsberg.s 1879. WILHRLM.

Given at our palace, at Madrid 1879. The Terre Haute Drum corp6 created a great sensation at Paris. They were put at the head of the procession going to the fair grounds and were much complimented.

AT ST. LOUIS.

St. Louis, July

4.—Independence

is being observed here to the fullest extent. All business, except a ie# small retail shops, is suspeuded, and all the public offices and institutions are closed. The chief feature of the day, so far, is the grand parade by the Eight Hour Labor League, composed of numerous workingmen's organizations, German and English sections of the Socialistic Labor party, and the Montgomery Guards, which marched in uniform and fully armed. There was also several trades represented on wagons, with mechanics working, and a number of handsomely decorated vehicles filled with women and children in gay holiday attire. The whole presented a very nice appearance and was over half an hour in passing a, given point. After marching through several prominent streets the procession starteu for Lindell park, in the north western suburbs of the city, where the dav will be spent in festivities of various kinds. Perfect order prevailed, and everybody seemed bent on a day of fun and frolic.

4.—Another

The or.ly accident worthy of mention, so far reported, was a collision on the narrow guage railroad running from this city to the village 01 Florisant, sixteen miies from the city, between two passenger trains, one which had about three hundred excursionists on board, and the other nearly empty. Thomas Mead, en gineer of one oi the trains, was badly hurt about the head and shoulders Geo. Bailey, a painter, severely injured in jured internally Cornelius Clendenny, of Calhoun county, Illinois, pretty well shaken up, and two or three others slightly bruised. Both engines and one passenger coach are damaged about $3,000.

To-night the city has been ablaze with bonfires and pyrotechnic displays.*. AT CINCINNATI.

No formal celebration of the day is in progress, but Young America supplies the lack of ardor of the elders in incessant shooting and shouting. Bui-mess houses are generally closed. A lar^e number of citizens and excursionists have gone to the Hill parks and Zoological gardens.
