Great Success.

Pleasant Affair.

The first annual picnic of Clan Gordon,
of the new Scottish fraternal order, was
held at East Park on Saturday and was
well attended. Quite large number of
Scotch athletes and others came up. from
Oakland and San Francisco on the pre-
cediHg evening, accompanied by several
pipers, and early on Saturday their quaint
music was heard on the air as the pic
nickers rode through the streets.
Besides the pipers there was dancing
music by the First Artillery Band. The
games were well patronized, and We're
