The Henry Grattan Excursion-A

which comprised three sections. The
committees were admirably seieCtc
and they as we'll performed their du-
ties, for there was not hitch the en-
tire day. The weather was at first
threatening but the sun dispelled the
clouds at intervals, making it an ideal
day in the wooded and well shaded
spot. There was music and fun galore,
and Celtic in it's character to a nice
ty. The Elite full orchestra engaged
the attention of the young people in
the large dancing pavilion, while
Dougherty, the Irish piper from New
York tickled the disabilities Of the old
er natives of the green isle, and the
way both the men and women danced
the old time reels and jigs carried them
back to the days of long ago. The at
fractions were located over the
grounds, the swings, -go-rounds
and the enticing waltz was in perpet-
ual motion, while refreshment stands
did land office business. On the lake
the surface was fairly dotted with
small craft, while the man who came
out to empty that body of the finny
tribe is perhaps still at it for he was
the only individual who "never came
back" At high noon the Tribune man
with the piper was invited by Oliver
Burke and family to sit down with
them to their improvised board and
what a spread. Well, it was fit for the
gods. and served by his helpmate
made the repast all the more appetiz-
ing. The excursion was the biggest

ants in the case in question, the Breck
heirs, who claim a title to a portion of
Rreck court, will consider a PROPOSE
tion to abandon their claim 10 the

There being already one cross alley
from Breck to Forest court, Mr.. Com
eggs says, there can be no public need
for another while on the other hand
the city might be put to great incon-
venence and no little expense, should
the Breck heirs assert their claim to

was referred to the judiciary commit

CoNGREGATIoNAL1sTs REVIVE.

Rev. Edward Lewis, of Scranton,has
consented to serve for three months
the Congregationalists of this city.
For some time they have been without
n pastor and their valuable and unen-
numbered church property on Church
street at Eighth avenlA has been rent
ed by the German Lutherans. This
successful effort to revive interest may
necesstate the removal of the Luther
ans who contemplate taking the Welsh
BAPTIST church, a few doors above on
the same street. Mr.. Lewis will oc-
cupy the pulpit next Sunday.
