AN ENORMOUS CROWD.
The crowd at Fairview last night was
one OF the largest Of the summer When
the fighting began in the pavilion several
thousand men and women, who had no
desire 10 engage in the trouble hurried to
the street-car station and pressed into the
waiting cars. Fortunately there was
long string of cars at hand for it was at
the time of the evening when the greater
part OF the parks patrons start for their
homes. The women. especially. were anX-
Ious TO get aboard the cars and put the
park far behind them as quickly as they
might. They had had enough holiday for
one week
MosC of the lookers-on a the riot were
of the opinion that the trouble-makers were
'BungalOos" This opinion rose out of the
well-known delight that this coterie takes
in whipping a negro, and the trouble at the
park last night started when the cOlOred
man was knocked down. 1t is proba BILE.

specifically "Bungaloos." but were merely
hunting for more intense enjoyment than
men of more advanced years and settled
habits crave.
Four young fellows on the rear seat of
an inbound car at Il O'Clock were types

as they got on the car the other persons
near them were assailed by odor of
sweet musk and sour cigarette smoke. The
young fellows were dressed in the style ap-
proved by the haberdashers at this season.
AS the car pulled out of the park the quar-

Well well. the gangs ali here.

The boy replied but not sggressively. 1t
was four to one. At Sixteenth street two
young men boarded the car and sat in the
same seat with the boy.
There's our cash boy friend" said one
OF the quartet. referring TO one OF the two
young men that had ust entered the car.
The taller of the two young men rose up
and addressed the quartet in this manner:
Now. you guys. cut that out. My friend

as IL he meant every word he said and the
