1t is over, and rOya success 1t
was. Thursday came and many
an anxious eye watched the wealth
er reports, and figured on the
twinkling consultations in the blue
sea above, to ascertain by SUPER
natural strain, whether or not
kind nature would wrap herself In
gloom and roar her drenching tears
upon the disappointed multitude,
or smile her joyous glow of sun
shine, bringing gladness to the
hearts Of the most Interested.
Nature was kind indeed, for as
the great orb of light rolled up in
the east with his rays of glory, the
light breezes came and spread a
mild haze over his burning breath
and tempered the sting beneath
which all living, needs must move.
There was a noticeable stir In
Logan, and each whispered to the
other that n great day was this.
