OF FIREWORKS. The. Day’s' Rejoicing Concludes With a Fiery Memento of the Maine. OAKLAND, July 4—There was nothing | cheap or ancient about the fireworks dis- play onTiake Merritt to-night. The commit- tee arranged a series of forty-five distinct numbers, each of which drew out hearty commendation from the tens of thousands | who witnessed them: from Adams Point, the Twelfth-street dam, the Eleventh-street trestle and every . con- | cefvable point of vantage where human gs could station themselves. Every imaginagble novelty was intro- | duced in the display. At times the burst- ing in the air of brilliant shells illumin- ated the hilly on all sides and cast long streams of bright colors across the lake. | Occasion- | ally. the air was filled with golden rafn. | Groves. of gelden and vari-colored trees ' ghot into the air and exploded with thunderous noise, to be followed by a Lhost of hissin fiery reptiles curling argund hundreds of feet ove the lake and finally bursting into myriads of’ gold- e drops. SRR | e large and powerful colored lights | thz\'t-' were 'fmrned produced picturesque ef- | fects for a mile ‘around, and shining as | they did on seas of faces made a most re- | markable feature of the pyrotechnic. | The finale was the destruction of the | fort. While the eannon from the monitor | ‘was belching -forth fire and shot, hun< dreds of rockets flew into the air, throw- ing out volleys, of stars, while at the same time red fire was_freely burned and all ended with an aerial display of small py- rptechnics, out of which-Old Glory un- furled and the brilliant transparency, in letters a: yard broad, the countersign, “Remember the Maine.” 5 SRR AT A JOKE ON ARPER. It. Supplied a Bit of Fuel to Ada ¥ to ‘the Effect on e .~ Morro. OAKLAND, ‘July 4—George WisArper, president -of the Merchants’ Exchange, was much annoyed to-day to learn that some one had hoisted a Spanish flag over his ofl works on the Alameda side of the estuary in place of the American’ flag, which ‘he had haisted. | i When Mr. Arper went to his place of business this morning he was surprised to find the halyard of his flagpole ¢ut and ‘the stars and “stripes gone. While en- gaged in reefing.new halyards a.stranger, approached Mnv Arper and - produced a big Spanish flag, stating that he 'had seen it flying on Mr, Arper’s flagpole and had taken upon himself the task of cuttin it down. Mr. Arper does not know who, could have attempted such a stupid joke, but he, topk the Spanish flag to the Mer- chants’ Exchangé and it was placed over Morro. Castle and to-night shared in the general destruction of that fort. it A AT OTHER PLACES. ‘Much Enthusiasm, at ' Other Gatherings in Alameda - s _..County. e OAKLAND, July 4—The celebration at | wildly: cheered. “Jured. Qlucky little vessel fired her guns at Morro Castle. There was no return fire, and ‘after the first shot it was evident that the soldiers in the fort had taken 1o thelr heels and desérted their post. ihe monitor kept up a lively fire for several minutes, and finally the castle was knocked to pieces amid tumultuous cheers which almost drowned the. noise of the ouns. The wreck of Morro: took fire at an opportune moment and shortly’ after- ward all remnants of ‘the Spanish fortifi- itions were being b.own about by the evening breeze. Morro Castle was designed by V. P. Mitchels and . -was the best representation of a fort that could be erected, The color- ing was particularly truthful, and as Mr. Mitchels had taken His design from.a thentic plans of the well-known fortifica- tions, thé effect' was very natural.. The painted guns which peered through its port- holes were so realistic. that the | crowd wondered that they did not.make reply to the attack from the-monitor. foces e B LITERARY EXERCISES," Enthusiastic Audience Greets - “Patriotic Addresses and Beautiful Songs.
