City's Plan For Safe and Sane Fourth.
Several mouths before the Fourth of

to have a sane cerebration of the holi
day in place of the old fashioned noisy
Fourth. It was decided that a great
DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
By local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness and that is by constitutional rem
edies Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube;
When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
'y closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal coudition, hearing will be destrosed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrah, which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be
cured by Hall's Cattarrh Cure- Send for Circulars

ALL DRUGGISTS
DfcAKES T0M3 WITH

DRAPED OVER. IT
ADOPTING THE DECLARATION.
How the immortal Document Was Put
Through Continental Congress.
Although the Fourth is the day that
is celebrated by many as that on
wtik-h the immortal Declaration of In
dependence was signed, sealed ana
promulgated, as a matter of fact such
iv not trua. The great document was
read to the people on the Fourth after
having been approved by congress, but
it was not signed on that day. Ihe
facts are these:
On July 2 Jefferson presented for
adoption the immortal Declaration aft
er congress had adopted a resolution
presented by Kicbnrd ITenry Lee of
Virginia, which had been placed before
the body on June 7. 1770. This reso
lution was as follows:
Resolved, That these united colonies are,
and of a riprht ought to be, free and In
dependent states; that they are absolved
from all allegiance to the British crown
and that all political connection between
them and the state of Great Britain Is and
ouij'it to be totally dissolved.
This resolution was debated for near
ly a month and, owing to the absence
.of Lee, who had been called beme, the
defense of It fell on his colleague, Jef
ferson. It needed defense, for in that
congress were able men who opposed
its passage and revolution, (ireat.
therefore. Is America's debt to Jeffer
son and Lee. On July 2 Lee's reso
lution was adopted, and Jefferson's
draft of the Declaration was adopted
on July 4, 177G.
John Hancock, president of congress,
and Cnqrles Thompson, Its secretary,
immediately signed the document and
became thus the first official traitors
from an English point of view. It was
made public to the citizens by John
Nixon, who read It to the citizens of
Philadelphia in Independence square.
On July 1't it was ordered to be en
grossed, and on this being done It was
ready for the signers, who appended
their names on Aug. 2.
Meanwhile there had been some
changes in the personnel of congress.
and many of those who had taken part
in the debate against its adoption were
displaced, some of them at their own
request, and others who had no connec
tion with the historic discussion signed
the document.

IFTEEl EilETY YEARS
FLAG FLOATS OVER
ITS LAUREATE'S GRAVE
By ARTHUR. JAMES.
Copyright by American Press Associa
tion, 1311.
TITII all due respect to "The
1 Star Spangled Banner" and
f James Whitcomb Ililey's
'Old Glory," the one ban
ker poem that continues to float to
the breeze above all is "The Amer
ican Flag," by Joseph Rodman Drake.
I cannot read that poem to this day
without wanting to shoot firecrack
ers and deliver a Fourth of July ora
tion. Of course I do iieither. since
shooting firecrackers is against the
law and delivering Fourth of July ora
tlous ought to be. In these days we
must seek milder and more humane
ways of showing our patriotism. But
the cutting out of platitudes and noise
does not detract from Drake's perform
ance. His is really the noblest flag
poem ever written. It is so filled with
freedom, stars, milky baldric whatev
er that is red streaks and eagles that
on perusing it we can scarcely restrain
ourselves from giving three cheers and
going out to march our legs off in de
fense of the country.
It was fitting, therefore, that when
Joseph Ilodman Drake park was opened
In New York city something more than
a year ago on Memorial day, 1910, to
be exact a tine American Hag was un
furled over the poet's grave. Tlie ora
tor of the occasion was Charles De

Kay, Drake's only grandson. De Kay
is also a poet, likewise an art critic
and a founder of clubs. To get at the
matter at first hand I hunted him up
not long ago, finding him in the Na
tional Arts club, one of those he was
instrumental In starting.
"So you have the spring fever to
write a story about the neglect of Jo
seph Hodman Drake's grave?" he said
when I had explained my errand.
Every spring, when the news is
scarce," he went on. "some editor dis
covers that Drake's tomb needs atten
tion and proceeds to bestow it at least
to the extent of a story."
Later on Mr. De Kay explained that
the descendants of Drake and of oth
ers buried in the same little cemetery
near Hunt's Point provided a watch
man who looked after the graves. As
for the wild scene, the tangle of vines
and the apparent neglect, that was the
sort of place Drake loved and in which
he would wish to rest.
But now all is changed. The little
cemetery is a park, ttu; tangled vines
are cleared away, the knoll is rounded
and all in apple tile order.
Drake was born in 1793 and died at
the age of twenty-five from consump
tion. His best known poem other than
"The American Flag" is "The Culprit
Bay," the scene of which Is laid in the
Highlands of the Hudson. There is
nothing like this poem in American
literature. Only in an earlier school
of the English poets is found any
thing approaching it The "Fay" was
written as the result of an argument
between Drake and some of his friends,
the poet contending that American
scenes lent themselves to romance and
romantic treatment. Despite Its artis
tic finish, the poem was written with
great haste. When I was in the High
lands a few years ago the natives
pointed out the very mountain said to
be the scene of the poem. It was
old "Cro nest." just above West Point,
which also inspired some of the songs
of George P. Morris. Drake was pas
sionately fond of nature and spent
most of h:s time with a relative at
Hunt's Point, overlooking Long Island
sound, some of the scenes of which
were also woven into the "Fay."
The young poet studied medicine and
in due time annexed the resultant title
to his name, as is indicated by the in
scription on his monument.
For a time he collaborated with Hal
leek in skits for the New York Even
ing Post over the signature of "The
Croakers." The "Flag" did not appear
until 1S19, one year before Drake's
death. It is said that Halleck had a
hand in this, writing the last four
lines. That one poem made Joseph
Rodman Drake immortal. As long as
the American flag floats the author of
this its noblest panegyric will be re
membered, and it is indeed a fitting
tribute to his memory that after he
has slept ninety years In an obscure
and lonely little graveyard that flag
has been raised at last over his tomb.

Soft pedal Fourth of July.
Uncle Sam's natal day had grown a fatal day.

And lost by an eyebrow or nose.
Sisters and others were shot by their brothers,
While some missed an ear or an eye.
We've a less perilous, likewise less garrulous.
Denatured Fourth of July.

Loved independence, but, oh, you descendants,

From our gentility, soothing tranquillity,'
