This seassp-Gleeful A~uticipatisps Of
"Tbe Wsrld's" BiH Excursion Saturday.
Once again, and for the last time this sea-
son. TIL EVENING WORLD physician visited
Washington and Greenwich streets below
Liberty street yesterday. He found that
most of his little patients had recovered and
were in good condition for the big excursion
on Saturday. They ali received tickets and
are counting the days nov. The WORLD and
those who have contributed towards the out
ing feel amply repaid in the gleeful anticipa-
tions of the little ones.
Although Q great many families were Wis
tied yesterday. but few sick children were
found. 1t is probable that, although there
may be some hot weather yet. the season is
30 far advanced that there will not be the
great amount of sickness and mortality that
there has marked the summer months, 30
that by the end of this week, when the work
Of The EVENING WORLD physician closes for
the season, there will no longer be the urgent
necessity for this work.
Some few little ones were found yesterday
to be suffering with slight colds, due to the
sudden change Of the weather. One poor
girl about nine years old, has lost one Of her
oySb thiouBh- ibSaoOs vi DNt 10 hibo
diseased, and unless she has very prompt
treatment there is serious danger of losing
that one too. The mother did not recognize
the danger and was taking no steps to prevent
1t. She was urged to take her child to one of
the excellent eye dispensaries of the city.
A poor boy with but one leg was hobbling
about ON his crutches playing with his COM
panions in one tenement alley. In spite of
his intirmity he seemed to be happy and APP
pesred to enjoy the sports with the other
boys, and it was surprising to see with what
agility he got around. His leg was injured
some time ago, necessltating amputation near
the hip joint.
The success with which he managed his
crutch reminded the reporter of the one
armed man who applied for a position OH the
| police force. He was asked how he would
| do if o prisoner was obstinate and refused to
come along, He replied by reaching over
and dragging the examiner over the table
| with the hook he wore on the stump and
said i" That's the way I'd fetch EN-" the
little chap in the Greenwich street alley

He will go on The WORLDS big excursion.

Speeches, Danced and woro Full Of
Good ~Cheer-Peopie who Were There.


An attractive programme of outdoor nov
elites had been arranged for yesterday, the
third day Of the festival which the German
societies are holding in Jones's Wood and
Washington Park. but the heavy rainfall dis
arranged things somewhat, and those present
were obliged to seek the shelter Of the dan
cling pavilion. Nevertheless, impromptu mer-
rymaking went on. and there was plenty of
fun, Just as if there had been no rain.
Bechman's Band came over from the
"woods" to the park, and room having been
made fol them on the cspacious stage plat
form, they joined Leipboldt's orchestra, who
we're already there, and it was quickly ar
ranged that they would alternate with each
other in furnishing appropriate selections Of
lively music. This kept up the spirits of the
dancers, and those who did not dance were
RECALLED by concerts in the intermissions,
which were after their own heart. Many
musical melodies Of the Fatherland were
sicians.
Among the pretty and graceful young ladies
on the 1oor were Miss Carrie ~Schultheis,
daughter Of the proprietor OF the two parks,
In the basement, which is used for the large
dining hall, the members of the Harlem In
dependent Schuetzen Club were being enter

of their guests were George F.. Krumm, Paul
