Yesterday was great day for Paris,

They are always held the second Sunday
in June. Yesterday the President OF

on the different horses is very
large. Have taken delightful trip,

where Henry the Fourth was born. Left
Paris on one of the little steamers on the
Seine. 1t was a ride of about three hours
and half. The boat was let down twice
through the locks in the river, which
made the trip all the more interesting.
At Saint German the town is on quite
high hill overlooking one of the most fer
tile valleys in the world, every inch of
which is under cultivation. On the hill
is fine old museum and beautiful grove
in which a fine band played, during the
afternoon. Reached Paris ON our return
at 8 p. m, as we passed the exposition
every building was simply coverad with
electric lights and the ecene on both sides
of the river was too fine for words. 1
