threw him ont OF the window.
After striking the ground below,
be lay there unconscious, till about

demonstration in honor Of the oc-

celebrated. By ten o'clock busi-.

. greater number Of the business
houses were not opened at all dur.

The day being bright and pleas
ant, and in the absence Of any pub
lie festivity, early in the morning
private parties began to seek the
woods to picnic. iish, hunt, play
croquet, or spend the day in the
manner from which they could reap
tho greatest enjoyment. We shall
not attempt to snunerate for that
