marched in the procession wore high tin
hats. and had painted on tho front Ell
wood Is No More" One oon-keeper pur-
chased all the tin pie-pans in town and
threw these over the streets, aud It looked
more like a jollitication over the down
fall of an American industry than any

the crowd as often as into the air. No
speeches were made. and the entire affair
