To Indian Head by Moonlight on the
Steamer Manchester,

The ride to Indian Head is always de-
lightful one, yet something seems lacking
when only the stars are shining. One never
knows just what is missing, until the ride
is taken in the moonlight. Then the fact
is impressed on the mind that it is the
silvery moon that is necessary to make the
night perfect. There will be almost a
full moon on Friday and Saturday evenings,
and those who enjoy these moonlight trips
should not fail to go to Indian Head Fri
day and Saturday evenings of this week.
Dancing is the chief attraction at Marshall
Hall. It's always cool in the big pavilion
the floor is smooth-and Prof. Schroeder's
band plays all the popular music for dane
ing, while the steamer is making the run
to Indian Head and return. Many other
amusements. some new, some old favorites
that prove sufficiently alluring for both
old and young. An elegant Table d'Hote
Dinner. ready when the boat arrives at
Marshall Hail for SOC.
On Fridays and Saturdays. in June,
steamer Manchester leaves Seventh street
wharf at $3.50 for Marshall Hall and Indian
Head, returning leaves Marshall Hall for
the city at $50, 25c. for the round trip.
Parties who go to Marshall Hall during
the day, may take the ride to Indian Head
without extra charge.
