England is the only nation which
through her representative in Honolulu-
still recognizes ex-Queen Liliuokalana
as the rightful ruler of the Hawaiian‘
Islands, the diplomatic agents of all
other countries having contemptuously
denied her pretensions. The reason
for England’s attitude is clear enough.
She wants the islands and knows that
her chances of getting them would be
vastly greater with a corrupt monarchy
in control than if she had to deal with
an alert and intelligent republican gov-
ernment. It is to be regretted that this
great American Republic has a Minis-.
ter of State unanimously in accord with
Great Britain. -\
The Glorious Fourth!
All Norwalk is to be congratulated
over its safe deliverance from any seri-
ous accidents of “flood or field,” or
fire, as a result of its almost universal
enjoyment of the Nation’s holiday.
Thousands of our people and their vis-
iting friends sought recreation on the
waters eh our transcendently beautiful
bay and its many enchanting islands.
Other thousands crowded the trolley
cars and steamer City of Albany for
Roton Point where a day of cool de-
light was spent amid all the attractions
of that enticing shore resort. A large

Independence Day Quietly Observed
' In Norwalk.
'Com paratively Few Accidents.
The one hundred and eighteenth an.
niversary of Independence Day was
quietly observed in this city on Wed-
nesday. It was the quietest. 4th of Uuly
that Norwalk has had for many years.
The day was ushered in at12 o clock
by the ringing of bells, firing'of can-
non, crackers and other explosives and
the tooting of horns, and the diuwas
kept up until 7 o’clock when the n01se~
makers seem to have become weary.
and only the occasional snap of a fire-
cracker, cannon or pistol was’heard.
At noon the city streets seemed al-
most deserted, except for the small boy
who was out in large number With can.
non and cracker.
The shore resorts seemed to be the
loadstones that attracted the greater
portion of the people. Several picnic
parties were held and all returned home
seemingly very tired but happy. ‘
The day was an ideal one up,to 3
o’clock at which time there wasp. show-
er but it was of short duration, and
served to lay the dust and cool the air
and was altogether welcome: There
was another shower in the evening after
9 o’clock. .
The display offlags from private
residences was unusually large, and
there were comparatively few houses
from which “Old Glory” did not float.
But very few intoxicated men were
observed on the street during the day,
but best of all was the remarkably
small number of accidents as compared
with previous 4th of July celebrations.
At Norwalk Park there was a good
attendance all day, and in the evening
the crowd was considerably'augmented
in numbers. In the morning a game
of base ball was played between the
Norwalk Parks and the Harlem Ath-
letics. The local team outclassed its
opponents and won the game almost
with hands down by a score of 15 to 11
In the afternoon the same clubs played
an uninteresting game, the Parks wm.
ning by a score of 17 to 3. The follow-
ing is the score by innings:
1 2 3 4 5 6 9
Norwalk Parks 1 4 0 0 0 6 4—17
Harlem Athletics 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0——3
The athletic games were not started
until some time after the hour an-
nounced owing to the rain which left
the grounds in a muddy condition.
But three of the events were called
the first being the 100 yards dash, in
which there were three entries. The
78
02
company of N orwalk’s wide-awake and
socially agreeable people passed the
day delightfully at the Knob club’s pa-
vilion and grounds, where music was
furnished by the famous .Jerome May
Banjo club.
Thousands more packed the cooling
shades. of George» Clark’s Norwalk
Park, where music, and dancing and
games and running and rowing were.
indulged in by pater families and our
young;.__Ame_ricans to their patriotic
hearts’ full content. Surely our city
owes Mr. Clark a debt'of gratitude that
he has furnished the public a place of
such cool and attractive recreation right‘
in the very centre of population, and so
easy of access that even the dime on
the trolley may be saved, if desired, by
anyone not overstocked with funds, a
financial condition representing our
common millions of Americans to-day.
The excesses and usual fourth of July
mischiefs of the large and small boy
were few and of no special moment.
A11 seemed "inspired with a desire to
' have all the fun and make as louda
noise as possible and they succeeded,
and it is hoped as the dreary hum~drum
of everyday life is again entered uporf
to-day, that everybody is contented and
happy.
Too much praise cannot be given the
over-worked trolley men, who trans-
ported so many thousands of men,
women and children over their lines
yesterday without a single mishap or
vcxatious delay. Our gorgeous West
avenue “overland stage coaches” were
not in it yesterday though well filled at
night, and drivers and conductors had
a dull and stupid time of it, and wore a
dreary "1 wish I was away” look ‘on
their bronzed countenances.
All in all, the Fourth of July 1894
was notable and widely enjoyed.
Old Glory floated in all directions
over our city and bay, to brighten the
’ . skies and arouse the people’s patriot-
ism.
Fireworks were quitc generally in-
dulged in all over town. Benedict, th’e
clothier, with true advertising instincts,
gave the most costly and elaborate ex-
hibition at the Baxter Grounds. Roton
Point followed next, and the Knob
Club had a clear third place. »
At the Lawn Tennis pavilion a merry
dance and refreshing “tea” were en.
joyed by the young people. And “all
went merry as a marriage bell.”
Obituary.
The burial office was this afternoon
read in Christ church, Westport, over
the remains of a young member of one
of the oldest and worthiest families.of
. Norwalk and Weslport, that of the
venerable Andrew C. Nash, Esq. The
same office was only a few years ago
said above the casket of another in-
mate of the same fond home, Mrs. Dr.
George B. Bouton, whose Spotlessness
of life is a fadeless memory with sur-
vivors, while eighteen years ago this
eXact season Was borne from the same
hearthstone a young uncle of the de-
parted, Andrew Nash, Jr., whose noble
Self abnegation of character was truth-
fully typified one hundred years before
his day by one of his own name 'and
kin who, mortally wounded on the.
field of battle, and approached in the
midst of the fray by his commander
and by him commended to theumme-
diate attention of comrades, said With
judges decided the first heat to be a
dea one between George Heckerman
and William Steeb. Another heat was
run in which Heckerman won with ap-
parent ease.
The next event was a three legged
race which was won by John Clune and
James Mason, members of Co. F.
About forty boys took part in the
race for the greased pig which was cap-
tured by a lad named James Mulligan,
who logged the pig ofl in triumph fol-
lowed by a crowd of happy youngsters.
Messrs. John Paul and Fenton Pom-
eroy acted as judges.
During the afternoon and evening
there was dancing to music furnished
by Prof. Lowe’s orchestra. and the
'floor was filled by lovers of the art
terpsichorc.
In the ball games John Bogardus
acted as umpire and his decisions were
fair and impartial.
Thousands of people visited Roton
Point during the day. The trolley car;
with trailers attached, and the steamer
City of Albany being well patronized
every trip. Kohanza Hose company
and their friends from Danbruy were
present in large numbers. Heine’s
brass band furnished music in the grove
and a first~class orchestra was provided
for the dancing in the pavilion. The
merry-go-round was liberally patron-
ized and the various other attractions
including bathing greatly enjoyed by
large crowds. In the evening there
was a grand display of fireworks. It
was a great day at this popular resort.
with enthusiasm. Owing to the lack of
wind only one race was sailed, that be-
ing between Thomas Benedict’s Mar-
guerite and A. E. Chasmar’s Kearsarge.
The course was five miles and Mr.
Benedict won by 22% minutes. In the
evening a fine display of fireworks was
given, Captain Joseph Lockwood act-
ing in the capacity of gunner. After
the fireworks the party adjourned to
the club house and spent the remainder
of the evening in dancing to the music
of May’s Banjo club of Bridgeport.
At the Baxter grounds a large crowd
assembled to enjoy the beautiful fire-
works furnished by W. A. Benedict 6.:
Co., the popular South N orwalk cloth-
iers. The list was a long one and con-
sisted of rockets of every style and
description, red and green fire, sur-
prise boxes, Whirlwinds, geysers, floral
fountains, batteries, mines of all des-
cription and floral bombs. The people
were delighted with the display and
many expressions of thanks were given
Benedict & Co. for the evening’s pleas-
priately celebrated. In the evening
rockets and Roman candles were dis-
charged, bonfires built and rod fire
burned, the light from the latter pre-
senting a beautiful sight as its idec-
tion danced upon‘ the waters of the
sound. ,
At South Nor-walk the boys made
“Rome howl.” Church bells were mug
and bonfires started in the streets.
Cannons and fire arms were discharged
interspersed with the cannon cracker,
gates were lifted and what deviltry was
forgotten by one was thought of by an.
other. A reprehensible piece of work,
for which the police should hav made
arrests, was the piling of huge one in
the street in front of the N orwalk
Hardware company’s store and setting
fire to them. The intense heat of the
flames cracked one of the large plate
glass windows of the store door and
also destroyed the foliage of the trees
overhead. Some one turned in an
alarm of fireand Putnam Hose prompt-
ly responded and extinguished the fire,
also giving some of the crowd a good
wetting.‘ This act was the most wanton
and dangerous that was committed at
South N orwalk and is universally con-
demned by all good. citizens.
At the N orwalk Lawnfl‘ennis grounds
all was life and activity and _a select
crowdof ladies and gentlemen were
present to witness the final games in
- dying breath to his superior, “Leave
me alone, take care of the other men.”

There were several grand displays of
fireworks at private residences and at l
times Wednesday night the air seemed
to be full of shooting meteors and fall-
ing stars. .. ,‘ .
A number of people visited that .de-
lightful summer resort,Gregory’s Paint,
and were more than glad that they did,
for they returned home with renewed
energies, not wearied and out. '
Another act committed which is se-
verely censured is the breaking of all
the windows in the old horse car stand-
ing near the depot.
ACCIDENTS. ~
Fred. Stoots was up early in .the
morning and\with 'some companions
was having lots of sport firing ‘a mor-
tar. About 6 o’clock he put in an
“awakening” charge'of powder and
touched it off. There was an explosion
and pieces of the mortar flew in all
directions. One piece weighing about
six pounds tore its way through the
siding of the house occupied by Mrs.
Mary E. Persons, 89 Harbor avenue.
and fell to the parlor fl00r. In its
course it knocked off a large section of
plaster, and caused two pictures to fall
to the floor and break the glasses.
Strangelyenough one of the pictures
included the declaration of indepen.
deuce. Fred. and his companions es-
caped injury but they were terribly
frightened.
Charley and Johnny Lane, uncle and
nephew, while playing with some pow-
der on Leonard street, were severely
burned about the hands and face.
Johnny’s injuries were _cared for at the
hospital. Charley’s injuries were not
of as serious a nature, though painful.
A young son of Joseph {Carier fell
from a fence which he had mounted to
recite a few lines of the Declaration of
”Independence, and broke one of his
arms.
Ira Howard had his right hand and
his face quite badly, burned by the ex-
plosion of some powder with which he
was loading a cannon.
Henry I. Treadwell grasped an ani-
mated cannon cracker in- his hand and
for a few days will have to use his left
hand when he wants to eat. l
France ,Grumman, a young son of
Henry J. Grumman, received'a severe
' injury to his eye from a cannon cracker.
Harry Bussing winks the other eye
to-day, his right eye having been dam-
aged by a cannon cracker. ‘

nam has a severely burned right hand.
Cause, a Roman candle.
A blank cartridge caused a severe
wound on Willie Roach’s left hand.
Henry S. Bissell had his right hand
badly burned with a Roman candle.
At South Norwalk accidents_ were
numerous and some escapes miracu-
lous. Joseph McMahon of Ba view
avenue, was standing in front of red.
Coleman’s when some one in the crowd
set fire to a dynamite fire cracker he
had under his arm, which exploded and
injured him severely. His clothes were
torn and his side lacerated.
Richard Murphy was crossing Wash.
ington street and stepped in front of a
striking him in the knee badly lacerate
ing the flesh. He was taken to Still-
son’s drug store where Dr. Burke ren-
dered medical assistance. It is feared
that Murphy will lose his leg.
Clarence Hunt was struck between
the eyes with a stone, at Roton Point,
and his forehead badly cut, reqmring
several stitches to close the wound.
Albert Schaub, a son of George
Schaub, was accidentally shot _in the
ankle, the bullet going in one aide and
coming out the other.
Oliver R. Mumford had the rear part
of his pantaloons taken out by the ex-
plosion of a giant cracker.
There were several other accidents,
but nothing of a more serious nature
than those chronicled above.
Tournnons.
The sale of pyrotechnics was nearly
as large as a year ago.
Large bonfires were built near the
Methodist church and on Main street.
A specially reprehensible act was the
overturning of tombstones at Bates’
granite works.
Trailers were run on the trolley cars
between Roton Point and Riverside
avenue all day. "
The clam was king in the fodder line.
He is a homely institution but has a
heart that wins many friends.
Au entrance was gained to St. Paul’s
church, but before man strokes of the
bell had been sounds the lads were
frightened away.
There Was quite a number of out of
town people here who improved the
holiday by picnicing on the shore and
in the groves about town.
The Alpha Wheel club was out with
a mortar both Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings and made noise enough to
paralyze an army of sleepers.
The bell at the Center school was
rung with a vengeance and one of the
boys is authority for the statement that
the tongue of the same was completely
tired out. _
Hope Hose boys remained at their
headquarters all night in readiness for
any fire that might break out. They
and their friends were treated to sing-
ing,'banjo playing and clam chowder.
A section of the iron fence in front
of Dr. W. F. Acton’s residence and sev-
eral gates in various parts of the city
were torn from their moorings and dis-
tributed in various places, Tuesday
night.
The Alpha battery gave Chief Brad-
ley a salute of three guns at an early
hour in the morning. The chief did not
show himself, but be h ,ard all that was
going on, even to the ‘Let’s give.him
another one.”
The dull sickening tone of the bell
in the belfry of the Over River school
was heard at midnight and at intervals
during the early morn, the “ringers”
having gained an entrance through a
basement window.
From the St. Mary’s parsonage a
United States and a State silk flag
floated. The latter was the source of
many questions as to its “identity” and
was, we believe, the only one of the
kind displayed in this city.
After trying eight windows in the
Congregational church six Or eight
youngsters gained an entrance, but
they had scarce commenced ringin the
bell before a “special’fiappeare - on
the scene and they quickly. left the
edifice. \ ‘

Tuesday pight, left the church doors
open, which so disgusted'the young-
sters they did not enter the buiding'and
ring the bell. Those trustees profited.
by their experiences in youth.
There was a. battle with Roman cen-
dles between two crowds on either side
of Wall street in front of the Fairfield
County bank. Tuesday night. The bat-
tle was a hot one and strangely enough
but two persons were injured and their
wounds were of a slight nature. .-
Phosnix Engine company kept open

lers to salads, cold meats, root beer
and other liquid refreshments. . A large
