The boys saw" and in ten minutes they
were back in the park and being escorted
around by Mr.. Westpbai, who gave them the
full run of the grounds. A short speech by
Mayor Ames helped to make the afternoon
a pleasant one.
HE PUT HIM OUT.
The only disagreeable feature of the
whole thing was the ejectment of one per-

''This is what I like to see,'' said Mayor
Ames, as he watched class go through the
bewildering evolutionS. Here these people
are disturbing no one and enjoying them
selves to the utmost. I have been here all
day, and not an angry word have / heard. 1t

the exercises yesterday afternoon, for the
reason that Prof. Underwater wanted to give
the outside teams all the show possible.
But one person fell into the lake. This
was a little boy, and he seemed to enjoy the
cool bath. His mother was not Sc happy
over it, however.
Maj. Landberg wore a dress suit and q
did not recognize him until his hearty laugh
rang out.
There were eighteen police officers detailed
for duty at the picnic, but everything was as
quiet and orderly as could be.
1t was one OF the most orderly picnics ever
held near here. and not an unpleasant word
was heard all day.
Those who went out in boats are to-day
bathing their hands and faces in cream and
similar things.
There were pretty girls and more manly
men present than are often seen at similar
gatherings.
Mayor Ames was repeatedly cheered by the
turner's and their friends. He responded by
u bow.
The police did good service in keeping back
the crowds when the exhibitions were being
given. g
Officer Henry Brudigarn was prominent
figure, and had a pleasant word for everyoiie.
Everyone was perfectly happy and enjoyed
the day thoroughly.
