The Times has had its ups and downs
and it now looks as if it is on the up
grade to exceed the expectations of
its most enthusiastic friends We
have always believed that a truly
metropolitan journal in all that the
word implies, could be sustained in
the city at the mouth of the Kaw,
and it now looks like this will be real
lied in the Times under the manage
ment of Capt. A. A. Lesueur. That
paper will have crucial test of it's
ability to properly handle news at

thronged yesterday afternoon and evening
with the Saturday half-hOliday recreation
seekers, who found in the mild tempera-
ture at the bayside resort relief from the
terrible heat of the city. The water was
alive with bathers. men, women, and chill
dren, who sported in the salt brine until
long after night had fallen. The immense
roller coaster, the carousel, and the many
entertainment pavilions proved great at

at Marshall Hall. Children like to go there
because they can romp about on the lawn,
paddle along the beach. and take part in
the various amusements that the manage
ment has so literally provided for them.
Parents, too, enjoy the day about the
beautiful grounds In cool river breezes.
Good music is feature of these Sunday
excursions. Prof. Schroeder's Band is al

field Drowned.

William L. GnsLins and Milton Wnr-
field Drowned.
Two cases of drowning were reported
from the Bathing Beach last night Will
liam L. GGskins. aged eighteen years, and
Milton Warfield, twenty-seven years old,
were the unfortunates. Gaskins was a
clerk in the employ of W. B. Moses & Sons.
He was drowned shortly after o'clock
Warfield was in the employ of Morocco, the
o'clock Both men were excellent swim
mers. Coroner Carr was notified of the
deaths, and he will today issue the neces-
sary certificates for the burial of the re-
mains. Gaskins lived at 1924 Rock Creek
Road. while Warfield's home was at 1917 E
Street northwest.
When the Moses establishment closed
yesterday afternoon Gaskins Joined party
of employees and went to the beach The
men entered the water and a swimming
match was proposed. Several members OF
the party agreed to the proposition and
mounted a high board. preparatory to TAX
ing dive prior to the race. AT given
signal those in the contest jumped from
the board and started to swim for stake
some distance away. Gaskins jumped with
the rest of the party and. after striking
the water, was seen no more. While the
race was in progress, however, the absence
Of Gaskins was unnoticed. After the
match had been concluded he was missed
and search was begun for him. His
body was finally found near the spot where
the dive had been made. 1t is thought
Gaskins was attacked with cramps.
The ambulance from the Emergency Hos
pital was summoned 10 the beach and
hurried run back to the Institution was
made. There physicians worked half an
hour over the young man. but life was
extinct. The father of the unfortunate
young man is employed at the Medical
Museum. He has family of several chill
dren. He was greatly shocked at the I'M
timely death of his son.
Warield went TO the beach during the
evening with several companions. The
party obtained two small boats and rowed
out 10 a considerable distance and then
jumped into the water. Amid the splash
ing diving. and swimming Warfield was
mome ntarily forgotten By his comrades.
Just before leaving the water. however,
he wFs missed A search was instituted
for him ard his dead body was recovered
some Distance from the boat The remains
were taken 10 the morgue- Friends were
notified OF the accident and will probably
claim the body this morning.
