K. OF P. DAY.
Favorable Weather and an Immense
Crowd of People at Wheeling Park
Good Order and Thorough Enjoy
ment by ALL. Bowling Contests.

The local lodges of the knights of
Pythias were peculiarly fortunate in
their selection OF a date for their an
nual outing. The weather was all that
could be desired. The rain which fell
in the morning allayed the dust and
cooled the atmosphere.
During the afternoon and evening
all the w. & e. G.. cars were crowded
with passengers. After seven o'clock
very few outgoing motors carried less
than one hundred persons. A fve-min-
ute service was provided, and the i'm
mense crowd was handled without any
mishap of any character. During the
day the crowd was scattered over the
Park, but at night all were assembled
within the enclosure. which was brill
liantly Illuminated. The Casino and
ront dancing pavilion were crowded at
all times. Band concerts were rem
dered from the new stand. All the
other amusements found their devotees.
AT eight o'clock it was stated that
$3.50 persons had passed through the
gates of the Park. and there must have
been 1000 after that hour.
During the afternoon there were two
bowling contests. one between the four
subordinate lodges and the other be-
tween the three uniformed companies.
In the former the Black Prince Lodge
carried off the prize box of fine eli
CARS. The scores were as follows:

Yesterday, the eighth day of June,
though memorable for the home-com-
ing of our soldier boys, etc, was one
also to be held in fondest recollection
by members and friends of the Carroll
Club. The club house and auditorium
did not fail to present to all patrons
its joys and pleasures during the even
ing, at which time even nature Itself
seemed to give cooling. CHEEKY smile
for the summer girl" numbers Of
whom congregated there that they, too
might be factors in giving all most
pleasant evening. The privileges OF
the auditorium were enjoyed by old
and young, all tripping to TIE music
played by Prof. Killmeyer, after which
all partook of the most tempting deli
cacies ever offered to lovers OF good
things" served by a committee OF
young ladies, of whom Mrs. j. Nc
