CENTRAL UNION PICNIC.
At PunahOu College Grounds,
1900 People Present.

As early as s o'clock yesterday
morning mothers and their chill
dren commenced to gather at the
Central Union church at which
point the Sunday school children
and their parents and friends were
to take the cars for the picnic
grounds at Punahou. Manager
Paine of the Tramways Co., had
extra cars running so that every
one could get ride even if seat
could not be obtained. The ar
rangements for the transportation
were in the hands OF Prof. Hosmer
and A. F. Cooke, and they were
assiduous in their attentions to the
ladies who had from one to a dozen
children in their charge.
At the grounds the picnic party
from all parts of the city settled
down to their enjoyment of the
day and shortly after nine all sorts
of games were INDUCED in from
croquet to baseball. The chairmen
of the various committees and their
assistanants looked after the COM
fort OF the crowd and every detail
of the work was carefully attended
to. By II o'clock those in charge
of the tables got the order to "stand
by" and there was a grand distri-
button OF edibles and the young
and the aged were made happy.
At 2 p. m. the first car was ready
for the tired ones to return to town
but it was nearly 4 o'clock before
the grounds were emptied. There
was not an accident to one of the
1900 people present, and never
since the Sunday school has been
in existance has there been an occa-
sion OF this character where the
arrangements were better or more
faithfully carried out.
The following committees under
Miss Margaret Hopper were in
charge: Meats, Mrs. Henry Water
house; salads, Mrs. J. T. Water
house; bread, Mrs. C. NJ. Cooke;
cake, Mrs. F. J. Lowrey; pork and
beans, Mrs. w. D. Alexander;
G. NJ. Cooke; soda water,
Jhas. Anterior; lemonade, F. J. |
1owrey; arrangement of dishes,
Mrs. A. F. Judd and Mrs. J. T. |
Warehouse; transportation, A. F.
Cooke and Prof. F. A. Hosmer.
