"Thirty five years ago if one bad

RED MEMS PICNIC.
The Chief Outing Event of the Season
on Wednesday Next,

The next picnic of Importance will be
that Of the Improved Order Of Red Men,
which will be held at Natoma Grove on
Wednesday next. the 18th inst
It is many years since the Red Men
established their reputation for giving
clean, Wellmanaged and enjoyable out
ings Of this kind, and every succeeding
annual picnic given by them has only
served to strengthen their popularity
with the public. One reason for the
success of the Red Mems picnic is the
confidence that is felt by the better
classes of people that no rowdyism will
be permitted either on the grounds or
on the trains going and coming.
Some years ago the hoodlum element
was very much in evidence at picnics,
and for a time they held such sway as
to finally deter families from going on
these excursions. But the warriors of
the local Red Mems tribes tomahawked
a few of the roughs and so completely
suppressed that element that of late
years nobody has felt the slightest hes
itation about attending the outings held
by the Red Men, for the most perfect
order is maintained and no rough char
acters are permitted on the grounds.
All manner of innocent and pleasure
giving contests have been arranged by
the committees for the coming picnic.
The games viii begin at l o'clock p.
m, and prizes will be awarded at t
o'clock. There will be a lunch basket
depot on the grounds, and all baskets
will be properly cared for free of
charge.
The basket route will be: C street,
commencing at Twentieth, to Sixth
street; II street, commencing at Twen-
ty-seventh, to Twentieth; I street,
commencing at Twenty-sixth, to Sec
ond; L street commencing at Fifteenth,
to Second; M street, commencing at
Twenty eighth, to Fifteenth; P street,
commencing at Twenty-sixth, to Sec

Baskets should be left on the north
side of the street, with the owners
names thereon, and wagons will call
