The day of the Eureka Buckeye
Pipe Line picnic has come and
gone, aud the immense crowd that
was In attendance have returned
to their respective homes, wearier,
and 1t Is to be hoped, happier.
Fully three thousand people were
In attendance, and so far as wealth
er was concerned the day was the
most ideal one of the summer for
an outing. This was the ninth
annual basket picnic of the en-
ployees of the Pipe Line company,
and the delightful event was
held at the beautiful En-
reka- Buckeye Park, under the
grand old sycamores of Marietta
Island. All day there was bright
sunshine, yelled now and again by
feecy clouds, between which the
sky was as blue as the ocean, and
throughout the entire day a cool
and invlgorating breeze swept the
island.

the merry picnickers from this city,

o'clock. This city sent the largest
delegation, numbering one thous-

from the surrounding oil fields.
These an nual outings have become
one of the established pleasures
throughout the great southwest oil
fields, and are always looked for
ward to by the large army of oil
field people especially, with the
most pleasant of anticlpations. The
occasion Is always conducted In
genteel manner. and the employees
take special delight In entertaining
their friends. The crowd was of
the kind always found at picnics-
a kind of motley tbrong composed
of members from all walks of life.
Rich and poor were mixed iudis-
crimiuately. The young were
there who thought 1t their duty to
laugh at everything simply because
they felt like 1t, and there were
others present who carried dignity
far beyond their years. This was
done, of course, with view of hav-
Ing general good time, and 1t Is
needless to add they more than &C
complished their end.
ALI trains were crowded to their
utmost capacity and on their arri-
val at their destination most of the
passengers went direct TO the park,
In order to be present for the first
events ofthe day. The boats came
and went every hour and added to
the hveliness of the occasion by
