Boom! went the signal gup,

When somebody touched off a
cannon early on the morning of
the 4th it acted as aregular eye"
Opener and warned all that the
glorious anniversary of var Nat-
ional Libert was -here. The
sound echo through the sur -
rounding country and told our
friends an4 neighbors that Green-
ville was awake, and immediately
they came pouring into town in
great numbers. They came from
every where" big folks, little folks;
old folks, young folks; pretty
folks, ugly folks; white folks,
black folks"every body.
Some a walking, somea riding,
Some a runniuy, some a gliding,
Some rode single, some rode doable.
All bent on pleasure,but none on trouble.
The crowd was just immense,
away up in the thousands.
Of course the races were the
chief attraction of the day and

people were piling in the hacks
and going out. Nearly all the
white people went out to the track
while the colored brother glo"
riously celebrated the day by
walking around town arm in arm
with his sweetheart, eating
streaked candy, drinking red lem-
ovade, popping roast peanuts and
looking longingly at that pile of
Georgia watermelons vefore the
Olid Brick Store. it was a big
day for all, white and colored.

The racing started at 1:30 and
continued until 5:30, giving the
spectators an afternoon of rare
amusement. The trials of-speed

Twenty-six couples participated,

GREATER THAN THE MISSISSIPPI
Canadian Geologists. gists Tell of an. Enor-
mous Preglacial oRiver.
The largest river of any age of
which ~there is any evidence in the
world, according to a remarkble ge-
: i ological discovery reported to the.
Royal society of Canada at its late
meeting at Ottawa, wasa great pre-
giacial river in northern Canada,
says a dispatch to the New York
Sun. Dr. Robert Bell, who produced
scientific evidence of the correct-
ness of his discovery, pointed out
that it was generally admitted by
geologists that the continent of
North America immediately before
the glacial period stood at a much
higher elevation than at the present
time, amounting to, perhaps, be-
tween two and three thousand feet.
The inevitable result of this must
~| have been to change the river sys-
tems from what they now are, and
to create in the north a gigantic
river draining an area of over one-
~third of the entire continent of
North America, and forming a
drainage basin seven times as large
as that of the St. Lawrence.
The central portion of the great
river was the middle of what is now
Hudson bay, as proved by the ex-
isting depressions of land inT the
north of Canada and the great
depth ef the center of. Hudson bay.
Its lower part discharged through
what is now Hudson straits inte
Davis straits. It is also maintained
that the upper half of the St. Law-
rence basin, both in preglacial times
and also at a later geological period,
discharged its waters northward by
way of what is now Hudson bay. It
is asserted that this constituted one
of the main branches of this great
porthern river. Other large branch-
es were the present Saskatchewan,
the Nelson river, which rises west
of the Rocky mountains, the
Churcbill, largely augmented by. the
reversal of some of the upper rivers]
of the Mackenzie basin, and the
great tributary streams that came
down the present Churchill inlet,
Fox channel and Unyava bay, any
one of which must have fully
equaled in size the Mississippi of
our own day..
