 So many people came down to the wharf yesterday morning ready for the third fresh air excursion" by the City missions that 1t was thought best, not withstanding the threatening weather, to make the start as announced. In- cluded in the party of between three and four hundred persons was dele gation from the English Hall Sunday school in charge of Judge Cleaveland, the superintendent. Others were men- bers of the families with whom the children were connected, and still oth- CTS not belonging at all to the City missions, but men and women, old and young, and also little children, who had been invited to go on the fresh air list. | The expenses of the Sunday school in cluding cake and ice cream, were met l by subscriptions from friends of this | part of the mission work at English Hall. Cream for the rest was donated by Messrs. s. E. Champion, Boschen and Hassellbach, with cream dishes from the Bradley, Dam & Darlington company and free transportation of freight to and from the boat by Peck & Bishops teams.
 !: On board the Margaret on the out ward trip there was instrumental mu- sic by an orchestra led by MT. Kings ley. At the park all were well shelter ed in the pavilion, and after the basket lunches had been disposed of, cake and cream were served to all, and with mu- sic and games the day was pleasantly spent.
 The weather was not quite all that could be desired for an excursion, for il really rained, and quite steadily al l times. But every one seemed to rise above these watery surroundings, and to be determined not only to make the 1 best of it, but also to make the most of it, and when the captain of the Mar. l garet came on shore between 4 and o'clock and announced that it was 6 little rough on the water between the park and New Haven, and that per. haps they had better make a start al 5 instead of at 6 o'clock, as usual, no. body was in a hurry to go, although il was finally agreed to do so. And after a breezy trip of an hour or so, filled ir with instrumental music and singing but no seasickness, all were safely landed at their starting point witt plenty of time to reach home before dark.

Hewit and Brown, both of Yale 97, who, witt Frank Miller of the United church hac charge of the games; Misses Hotchkis. and Johnson of Calvary Baptist church who assisted Miss Hume, the lady mis Isionary, in charge of the Sunday schoo lice cream tables; Judge CleaveIand the superintendent of the Sunda, school; Rev.
