iams' Park. We walked to Trinity square
to take an Elmwood car. My friend
thought that had not taken the right
car. but i was very sure that had. We
rode up Elmwood avenue, and when we
got to the electric car barn the car
tuned in and stopped As there would not
be another car for about ten minutes We
walked the rest OF the distance. After
we got there we found out that there were
some animals In the mensgerie which we
had not seen. so we went in to see them.
The young lions were asleep, SO we could
not see them as well as though they were
awake. We left the park that night,
after spending the day very pleasantly.
had almost forgotten to tell you about
my learning to ride bicycle. Last June
my father got me bicycle. was afraid
to get on at first, but after q while he
convinced me that be would not let me
fall of, so i got on and he let me ride
around the yard while he steadied it. 1
thought 1 cou.d learn better alone, but
the hardest thing seemed to be to mount
IL. III took me two solid hours before /
could mount Ii ana start off by myself.
After i had learned to do that I thought
L was doing quite well, but found out
that must learn TO steer the front wheel.
Once, while learning TO do this steered
into board fence, fell of Of the b cycle
and had quite time getting started again.
But / was determined TO learn, and /
did, and the result is that l can ride q
bicycle quite well now.
After my visitor from Maine went home
i thought would go out in the country
and stay one or two weeks. So / started
Wednesday afternoon, August z, on the
4:10 train. / reached the country at s
o'clock, where my two cousins were wait
ing for me.
One day while staying there, my aunt
and uncle thought il would be good
plan for us all TO ride down TO New But
tonwoods in the morning and spend the
day. My uncle harnessed the horse into
the large covered wagon and took our
dinner, besides some dsh lines and hooks.
After three hours ride we reached
there. We were quite hungry by the
time We got there, so we had our din
ner. After that my two cousins and [
fished over the bridge. We caught II
soup In all. That night, about 8 O'Clock,
we started for home, and reached there
about so'clock, after spending a pleasant |
day at the shore
My uncle keeps grocery store, and
while l was there L had very nice time

declined, saying she preferred to dance,
and when Ross manifested an inoppor-
tune desire 10 have a look from the do me
with them, she gave his arm such mea n
ing pinch that he quickly changed his
mind.
From the twentieth story, where Q
grand banquet was being set out, Con-
stance and Jack assembled three flights of
stairs, to the upper floor OF the dome.
There they stepped out upon the narrow
balcony which, masked by a breast-high h
facing OF ornamental iron-work, ran
around the structure. The snow-ciad
city, sparkling with its myriad lights
and overhung by a radiant golden cano-
py, was indeed fair sight to see and they
stood for few moments as IL spell-bound
by its beauty. But John Burroughs had
not come up there TO admire scenery.
Constance" q" he said, 81 have brought
you up here nominslly to see, but really
10 hear. For some time, in fact ever
since i have known you, / have felt that
the happiness of my life depended upon
my making you my wife. OF course, /
said nothing TO you OF my love so long az
my position was indeterminate and my
future doubtful. These conditions exist
no longer. The foundry-foreman has be-
come an iron-master. And now i am able
10 say TO you, Constance, I love you,
with my whole heart and soul, and want
you TO be my WIFE Will your
"Yes; very willingly" she replied,
meeting his ardent gaze with a look elo-
quent of affection.
He drew her to him in fond embrace,
and kissed her.
At that instant, from the dome of dis
tant newspaper building, the vast white
beam of an electric search-light was
flashed full upon the lovers. The pretty
ia bleau they presented lasted but q Sec
ond, for Constance with scream and
Jack with an ejaculation that was not q
blessing, vanished into the dome.

very moe time together until It was

Soon left this house ana went to an

thought i would come home then,
after that visit, 80 i came home one Sat-
urday morning. l had not been at all
homesick while i was away, but / tell
you was very glad to get home.
Well, have been home ever since, hav.
ing very good times, too. Every after
noon, when we are at home, We play
croquet. / like that pretty well, but l get
beaten about seven games out OF ten
every day, but that is nothing for can
beat once in awhile.
/ went on moonl ght excursion on
the evening OF September 8, with friend
of mine. We sailed from Bakers Wharf
at clock, and returned to Providence
about 11:15 o'clock. We had a small
steamer, the Pioneer, but we had pleas
AMT time.
There was very good crowd on board,
most OF il being members of the Good
Templars. They were all very jolly. We
had great deal OF fun, by singing all
the lat est songs we could think of and
including many old songs, too.
The sail was delightful. After sailing
for about an hour the moon went under
the clouds Cor the clouds went over the
moon, do not know which), and left us
In the dark, but when we were coming
home the moon shone very brightly.
This, / think, is about the last event OF
any importance which happened in my
vacation.
Hoping that / may receive one OF the
prizes will close my vacation sketch.
