NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
A MOST GLORIOUS FOURTH 
Planned for the People of Man- 
chester. Water and Field Sports 
in the Forenoon; Baseball Game 
and Patriotic Lecture in the 
Afternoon and a Grand Electrical 
Illumination on Land and Water 
in the Evening. 
“Let the Eagle Scream” is the 
watchword of the committee ap- 
pointed by the town of Manchester 
gramme is somewhat different than 
has heretofore been the rule, for 
instead of the usual band concert 
and ball game or other sports the 
scene of the celebration will be the 
Town hall, where at 3.30 there will 
be a grand patriotic lecture by Rev. 
Peter MacQueen of Charlestown 
whose fame as raconteur, author, 
lecturer and newspaper corre- 
spondent is well known. 
The music for the afternoon’s 
REV. PE EER 
to provide a Fourth of July cele- 
bration for this year, and the large 
advertising posters which they have 
distributed the past week is headed 
by that suggestive ejaculation. 
That she will scream is no doubt; 
for the Manchester small boys are 
never lacking when it comes. to 
making a noise on the Fourth. The 
programme which the committee 
has mapped out is one that will be 
suitable to all. The sports in the 
morning will be of much interest to 
the boys, the lecture in the after- 
noon will attract the older ones 
more, perhaps, and the grand illumi- 
nation in the evening will be of in- 
terest to all, and many will be at- 
tracted here from out of town. 
Though it is not part of the pro- 
gramme to have a bonfire this year 
it is not improbable that there will 
be something of this kind at the 
Beach street park shortly after mid- 
night Wednesday morning. 
The afternoon feature of the pro- 
MacQUEEN 
programme in the Town hall will be 
furnished by the Nevin Male 
quartette of Boston, the personnel 
of which is: Edward E. Bullock, 
ist tenor; Arthur F. ‘Tucker, 2d 
tenor; Frederick A. Varney, bari- 
tone and accompanist; George E. 
McGowan, basso. The selections 
will be of a patriotic nature. The 
quartette is considered one of the 
best in Boston. 
There will be a baseball game on 
the Brook street grounds at 2.30 by 
local players—the Clerks and Over- 
allesui. 
The prettiest and most enjoyable 
event of the day for most people will 
be the spectacular electrical land 
and inner harbor illumination. The 
whole centre of the town will be 
alive with hundreds of vari-colored 
electric lights, and many of the 
stores will be decorated in addition 
to what the committee has in hand. 
In the harbor will be anchored Com- 
modore Bremer’s handsome large 
15 
steam yacht, the Velthra, which will 
be resplendent from stem to stern 
in electric lights, a _ private plant 
being installed on the yacht. The 
Commodore has issued an_ order 
also for the yachts of the club to 
rendezvous about his yacht in the 
inner harbor and it is safe to say the 
harbor will be fairly alive with 
small craft handsomely decorated. 
The spectacle on the whole will be 
something Manchester folk have 
not yet had the privilege of wit- 
nessing in this harbor. 
From the band stand on the Com- 
mon Teel’s Military band of Bos- 
ton will offer one of the choice con- 
certs in the evening.
