The excellent programme presented al
Highland park yesterday drew out a large
number of citizens, and the ENJOYABLE enter
talnment passed off enjoyably to all
The exercises of the day were Meas
antly varied by q number of choice selections
by the Great Union band, and the invisible
wire walking exhibition by Mr.. Roy AL
phonse proved the most attractive and inter
estlng event of the day. The difficult fea
OF walking on thin and nearly invisible
wire was accomplished in q manner that
demonstrated that his claim to the title o.
champion was not overdraWn, and his artis
tic gymnastic performances were enjoyed b,
| all.
The street peddlers are becoming publ,
nuisance, and the complaints are very man,
to this effect Besides the stationary ssfakes'
who blockade the streets with their ware,
and the crowds collected to stare and buy
the residence portion of the city is overrun
with pack peddlers. These fellows are here fol
only few days, week at the
utmost, and for the privilege of interfering
with the trade of established merchants, cit
liens, they pay Incense of SIS or SO. There
are not few, who see in these gutter mer
chants and pedestrian peddlers, very ikel,
persons to favor and clear the way for mid
night robberies and burglaries. The ped
dlers gain access to dwellings by the front
door to sell to the mistress; by the bach
door to dispose of ribbons to the maid. Anc
IN this way they get good lay of the lane
to report to an expert midnight operator
It's easy to be seen that this can be done
and the belief that it is done is very general
AT any rate these peddlers of all varieties art
nulsances. whose abatement is being called
Tor by business men and housekeepers.
