UNION SUNDAY ScHooHMAY PARTY.-Mon'
day was Gala-Dsy for the young folks oil
Oroville. Everybody turned out TO see grow
ing America of this locality happy. Early in
the morning many little voices were heard glee
fully chatteriug, and tiny feet were shutting
and skipping about town with an elasticity Of
motion never accompanied by other than smil-
ing faces and buoyant spirits at is May day,
quoth fairy that was tripping BY the door.
We might have known this without asking,
for never do other mornings waken SO soft and
rosy. Yes, everybody turned out, and every
express wagon, omnibus, stage or carriage in
town capable for the service was chartered
without price for the occasion The little mas
tera and misses met at the church in the morn
ing, that being the agreed upon rendezvous.
Load after load of exultant boys and dimple-
checked misses, we're taken up and whirled gles.
fully onward to the selected ground. Being
carried away by the excitement, and but slight
ly appreciating our position. we also were spir-
ited along, unconsciously finding ourselt two
miles above the ''Gem Of the Foot hills" near
q gushing spring Of cool water in a shady
grove of live oaks. Little grassy slopes, min
iature hills with granite crests the Table
mountain with her steep sides deep gulles and
black browed summit, though on the opposite
side of the river, and two miles distant, appar-
emily nodding welcome TO the lovely spot.
These were enchanting scenes that met our
view. But God bless the little children. A
hundred tiny sunny faces thousand times en-
hance the charms Of nature. Who would be
a bachelor Pardon, We digress-The May
Queen is now TO be crowned. There she is,
with her Maids of Honor, beneath the shade
of a far spreading oak, each flower decked brow
respieDdent with beauty. Miss Kate Hutchins
the chosen Queen, needed no rosy ornament to
enhance her beauty the children had well
chosen, aud equally happy had been the Queens
choice OF Prime Minister, Scepter Bearer and
Maids of Honor, and theirs of the Flower Girls.
Mr.. VIM B. Miller was Prime Minister, Miss
Ida Buckius, Scepter Bearer, Misses + kae
Kretsinger and Bella Clark, Maids of Honor.
and the Misses Ellen Taylor, Emma Rhodes,
Matte Moore, Luella Powell, ROSY lkert and
Alice Leighton. were the Flower Girls; a
bevy of six bright gems for the occasion. The
coronation ceremony was beautiful and impOs-
ing, aud conducted by the young ladies and
Mr.. Miller in a handsome manner. Good luck
go with the yoang Qaeen and her party; may
they ever as happily succeed with the realities
OF life. After the coronation, declamations
and songs, then lunch, and after that enjoyment
according to inclination. Among the large
crowd upon the ground not miserable face was
TO be seen, even dilapitaed bachelors wore
borrowed smiles, and graudmothers became
young at heart, whilst the little folks were
"unco happy" ---.z----.sz-.z.s.zas-zsa,
