 A large crowd enjoyed the excursion by the Richard Peck to and from the mouth of the Connecticut river. The excursion was carried out to the entire satisfaction of the several hundred on board.
 Exceptionally good order was pre- served at all the pleasure places and the arrests were few and far between. Even intoxicated persons were conspic- ucus by their absence.
 A large force of special officers as- sisted at Savin Rock in preserving or der at and near the trolley station. The only tendency toward disorder was in the pushing and jostling of the crowd,
 The weather was perfect from early morning until late at night and the pleasure seekers were in no way ham, pered in their plans by contrary wealth. CT conditions. E, Labor day was celebrated by all class es, and the very general observance was a source of qualification to the members of the labor organizations. 2

 So thoroughly were the streets in the center of the city deserted in the after noon that New Haven presented all the characteristics of Sunday quiet. At all the nearby shore and pleasure resorts were congregated thousands of Elm City residents, and there were hundreds at the Branford races. A large corps of policemen were on duty in and about the center of the city, and the usual degree of peace and tranquility pre- vailed.

CROWDS AT THE ROCK.

The Day Was Money Making One for
 the Privilege Holders.
 Labor day was great day for the privilege holders at the Rock. The crowd spent money freely and the pro- prietors of the various amusement booths and other forms of amusement did a thriving business. All the hotels and shore-dinner restaurants were thronged with hungry visitors, and the bathing houses were at all times filled with those who were anxious to indulge in the pleasures of a salt water plunge. The band concert in the grove attracted thousands and every seat was occupied during the afternoon programme In the evening another large crowd enjoy ed the concert. The theater was filled at all the performances and the work of the vaudeville artists was enthusias- tically applauded.
 The dance halls were filled with those who delighted in tripping the light fan tastic.
