The members of the Maine Pharma-
ceutical association and their friends
could not have asked for more perfect
day than that of yesterday, the one
selected for the holding of their annual
business meeting and field day at Long
Island Although the heat of the city was
intense this was of little consequence to
the men Versed in the kno Wedge of
pharmacy as their destination was to be
among tire islands of Casco bay where it
was pretty sure that their reception would
be cooler one and surely more COM
Portable one than day in the city could
have aft orded- Shortly after nine O'Clock
the dispensers of pills and compounds
were in readiness at the Falmouth hotel
where they were met by Chambers band,
and inspired by the stirring strains of
music the members and friends OF the
Maine Pharmaceutical association took
I'D the march to Custo m house wharf.
The ladies of the E,arty were provided
with special car and conveyed to the
head of the wharf. AT $50 all was in
readiness and the Emitas of the Casco Bay
Steamboat line was under way for the
scene of the jollifcation.. 1t had been ar
ranged and the plans we re carried out, so
that pleasant sail was enjoyed among
the islands of the bay pr or to landing at
the island The steamer sailed in close
proximity to the battlesh ip Massachusetts
thus affording the party a fine opportuni-
ty TO Judge of the massiveness of this
monster of the deep. The sail was a
pleasant one and lasted for some over an
hour when the course of the steamer was
directed to Long Island, where the party
