massed in the vicinity of the City Hall
and the Davis Club House in Mercer
street, the latter being the point of dis
missal. BY the time the parade reached
here hundreds of Bayonne, Hoboken and
North Hudson participants had dropped
out of line, but even at that the parade
was a-long wnle in passing.
Every member in line showed that he
had spent an enjoyable day at Don
nelly's Grove.
| All kinds of games and athletic events
were held. These were intensely en-
joyed by the majority of the vast crowd.
OF course in the vicinity of the pavilion
there was considerable political talk
going on quietly among the knowing ones,
as there had been on the steamer Grand
Republic on the way to the Grove. So
far as can be learned the following slate
was agreed upon.
For Mayor of Jersey City, James ].
Murphy.
For Mayor of Hoboken, Adolph Ian
kering.
For Mayor of Bayonne, Thomas
Brady.
For President Board of Aldermen Jer-
sey City. P. Anthony Brock Street and
Water Commissioners, James Nolan and
james G. Hasking.
Assemblymen, Jersey City-William
D. Kelly, James Hammill Godfrey Mat
thews, James Fielder, Joseph Duff and
Myron Ernest. Bayonne-John F. Lee.
Hoboken-Rufus Bessons> North Hudson
Edgar H. Loveridge and John Gallery.
West Hudson-Thomas P. McGlennon.
Assemblyman Michael Cannon is to be
retired. His successor has not been de-
cided upon
Although there were number of
State politicians at the outing there was
no talk of a Gubernatorial candidate.
Sheriff Nichols, Col Price and DR.. De-
mond, all of Newark, said that the Lentz-
Gibson fight would help the Democrats,
and they predicted that several Demo-
cratic Assemblymen would be elected in
Essex County.
: We have had the prose of the outing
now for the poetry. In a melody entitled
1T Was Davis Everywhere" Mr.. Ray
mond Monroe sums up what he considers
the unanimous opinion of those who fol-
lowed the Davis banner yesterday.
OH my, but it was wondrous
The Davis grand parade,
1t put all other "Outings"
Completely in the shade.
The streets with joy were ringing
From the fairest of the fair;
1t was Davis, Davis, Davis,
Davis everywhere
You deserved it Robert Davis,
SO l heard on every lip.
For you've proved skillful pilot
On the Democratic ship,
And few in public favor
With you Robert can compare,
For it's Davis. Davis, Davis,
Davis everywhere.
We're proud to do you honor
BY thousands every year.
For we know you do your duty
Without favor or in fear.
Your genial smile we welcome so
Your ways so debonair,
So it's Davis, Davis, Davis,
Davis everywhere.
All! yes and twill be Davis,
Our Robert most sublime,
His name will ring triumphant down
The corridors of time
He proudly waves on high that flag
The rarest of the rare,
And it's Davis. Davis, Davis,
Davis everywhere.
Long live our Robert Davis,
Long live his followers, too,
Travellers on the path that leads
To what is just and true.
The game of life we all must play,
But play it on the square"
And follow in the footsteps of
Bob" Davis everywhere.

hungry snake took hold OF It at once.
Frequently she stopped. IN evident
pain, but each time she resumed until
The long black thing was half way

This was the moment to act. The
door was thrown open and before the
cobra could disgorge herself to fight,
she was seized by the head and throat
while other hands grasped her body
and tail. Then the mouth was forced
wide apart while the pincers did their
work and the finest specimen OF cobra
