O'Clock, and the visitors were escorted to

1t was a big party TO take care Of, but
the committee was equal 70 the undertak-
ing. At 2:S0 o'clock the excursion train,
with seven cars crowded, and people hang
ing 10 the platforms, pulled out OF the Sa-
vannah and Atlantic shed. The
trip to the beach was an enjoyable one to
the visitors. The weather was delightfuI
and the breezes blew fresh acros the
marshes. The sights along the
road, the stopping at the
wharves below the city, the rice fields, the
forts and light houses-were new TO many
who had never visited the seashore before
THE ARRIVAL AT THE BEACH.
As the train neared Tybee the anticipa
lions of the visit increased, and many were
the EXPLANATIONS of wonder and delight as
1t came in sight of the ocean. The train
stopped at the Ocean house. The pavilions
were thronged in short time with
the excursionists, and the beach was
lined with them from the Ocean use to
the Hotel Tybee. Myers band accompanied
the excursionists and played in the pavilions
the entire afternoon, and last night the
orchestra played for the dancers on one
pavilion and the band on the other. The
tide began coming in at 5 o'clock, and before
dark the waves came rollipg and tumbling
on the sandy beach and many of the visitors
experienced their first plunge in the surf

AT o'clock dinner as announced. The
tables filed the hotel dining room, and long
tables were arranged on the balconies over
looking the beach. Plates were laid for
800, and the visitors were given fish din
ner. The evening was spent in dane
ing and strolling on tho beach
until the train left for the city at 1880
o'clock. The return trip was as pleasant as
that going, and the committee looked after
its guests until they were landed at the
hotels. A few were compelled to come up
on the late afternoon train to take the out
going night trains for home but ma ority
remained at the beach during the evening
