On Thursday the knights of Pythias Of
Hagerstown, and their friends, visited Druid
Hill Park, Baltimore. 1t required eighteen
cars to accommodate the excarsionisis, esti-
mated at 1000, and many others were com
PEELED 10 remain Mt home owing 10 the crowded
condition Of the cars. The Western Maryland
Railroad reduced the fare to 81 for the round
trip. We understand that about ESQ would
have gone from Smithburg alone, aud the
other stations along the road would have
swelled the number of excursionists to im,
mense proportions. There we're not cars
enough to accommodate the crowd of Hagers-
town. There were hundreds who went to
Baltimore for the first time.
