1t is related that in the early part of the
week some of the Night Hawks-a club
composed of divinity Students-were invited
to celebrate the birthday of one of their
number by a moonlight excursion. On the
evening elected the guests met aboard some
swift sailing yachts accompanied by
several suspicious looking hampers. The
wind was right ard the yachts stood
off to sea burning red light in lieu of red
paint. AS the night grew on the party
grew quite hilarious and the contents of
the hampers visibly decreased. That the
party were fright up to the present time''
was evidenced by their singing. However,
the wind increased to gale
md the storms swept over the
lake and the party were compelled
20 camp on Big Island. and when the
boats had been secured the drowSy gang
turned in to get some sleep. The morning
came and the host was found lying in his
yacht with all the bottles overheard and
red lanterns and red fire placed carefully
on ice. Friends, fearful of some disaster,
had come to the rescue, but when the state
of affairs had been discovered they departed
In great sadness. Chestnut.
Poets have raved over the budding girllet
as she springeth into womanhood and bangs
and long dresses and ali that, but hail to
the poet who sings of the maid that does
the maid act in the glistening wave, espec-
tally if she dresses properly. \ great deal
of to do has been made in the East this
season over the scantinesS of bathing cos
tunes, but for ugly bathing suits, Mime
tonka takes the palm. They are all
dark blue. trimmed with white braid. and
are so cumbersome that when she strikes
the water she looks like a fencing master
padded for bout AS women go Oh the
theory that dress makes the woman they
should emulate their Eastern sisters and
produce something dainty in the bathing
line. The GLOBE has recently circulated
at the bathing places of the lake, wishing
to initiate the kindly act that Mark Twain
described in his tonr of the Sandwich
islands, but being relegated to
high bluffs and back seats, has
Illuminated much Oh the question
of bathing suits and beauty in water.
1t was yesterday, and only yesterday, that
charming girl i'll pretty bathing dress
was discovered swimming out by a float
and, as she swan. she was of course an OBJ
ject of interest. Presently she came to the
life line and stood leaning against the rope
in a careless manner, unconscious of her
charming appearance. for she appeared only
II as she wiped the trickling water off her
forehead. Her costume was bright blue,
fitting tight, and reminding one of the
Roman costume. The arms were bare and
so were the limbs from just above the knee.
With all the weight of water, this girl
looked like statue in blue. and it was all
due to the good judgment of Madame
Modste, who fastened her garments. With
out superfiuous clothes she enjoyed her nat
atorial sport better and was much admired.
