full of facts, wit and humor. One notice.
able feature of yesterday picnic was he
attentive manner in which the crowds
listened to the speakers. Usually on an
occasion of this kind it is hard for a
speaker to catch large part of the
crowd, and the result is that the seats
in front Of the speakers stand are filled
largely with older people who enjoy a
speech more than tearing around over the
grounds. Yesterday these seats were fill
ed with people of all ages. boys and girls,
men and women. who listened attentively
until the speeches were finished.
An interesting procession was the pa
rade given yesterday morning. which was
started at 10 o'clock from the corner Of
Douglas and Washington avenues.
1t was composed of two bands, floats,
delivery wagons containing merchandise,
decorated carriages and a few clowns.
The parade was a sort of preliminary
to the big picnic which took place in the
afternoon at Riverside park 1t was led
by Sanford s band. and extended fully six
blocks from the place of the start when
the last vehicle Joined the moving pro-
cession. About half way of the parade
was the Innes band.
Many signs on some of the wagons and
floats contained inscriptions which show
ed that even a groceryman can be funny
when he has time to stop weighing but
ter or counting eggs long enough to get
a breathing spell.
Myron Deans delivery wagon was pro-
PEELED by raw boned horse that was
without hair on its tail. The stub was
decorated with a handsome ribbon of
loud color. Accompanying the display was
a sign which read Il have been retail
ing FOR seventeen years.
From Washington avenue the line of
march taken by the parade was west on
Douglas avenue to Seneca street. From
that thoroughfare it doubled back to
Main street and went north to Central
and west to the park
The grocers were will satisfied with their
picnic last night and so was everyone
else with the exception of few who at
tempted to make a meal on the barbe-
cued beef The beef was all right. but
according to those few knockers it should
have been placed over a huge fire about
night before last instead of early yes
terday morning.
The days festivities closed last night
with a grand ball in Hartman hall, where
the grocerymen. their wives. daughters
and sweethearts tripped the light fan
tastic until after midnight.

insight and mastery use of brief,
sharp and epigrammatio English. He
knows the human heart and through his

Gator, a seer and a prophet.-Editorial

Simpsons Auditorium was packed last
night 20 hear Ebert Hubbard. There
Was no speech Of introduction, and when
the man himself walked out upon the
platform there was a half murmur OF
disappointment. But soon this gave way
to something else. His subdued conver-
sational style, when backed up by a great
spirit, is the very acme of oratory.
Subtly, quietly and without effort the
speaker held that mammoth audience for
two hours. and probably every one pres
ent thought that the speech was just
for him. Those who went to scop re-
mained TO pray. And how did you like
