M'COvERN OUTING
Great Day at Witzel's Grove
Yesterday by the Club
and Its Friends.

ATHLETIC CONTESTS
Poet of the Day Was So In


The annual outing and games of the
james P. McGovern Association, which
took place at Witzel's Point View Grove
yesterday, proved not only a big but a
very enjoyable event. There were two
good parades. That of the morning was
very creditable and that at night a brill
liant one. The standard bearer, Demo
cratic Committeeman, had every occa-
sion to be proud of his following. He
was doomed for a Frecholder berth in
a manner that must have eminently sat
isfied him.
Police Justice James ]. Murphy was
the only Democratic candidate for a
Mayoralty nomination present. He was
accorded an ovation. 1t was plain that
the McGovern Association was with him
soiidly.
The association embarked from the
Morris street dock aboard the steamer
Isabelle at ten O'Clock in the morning,
and reached the Grove shortly after noon.
After an excellent breakfast the members
separated in groups to spend the day in
accordance with their own inclinations.
There were a number of athletic events
for prizes.
an eleven-inning game of baseball was
played between the Quicksteps and the
MeGovern Association team. When the
game was called on account of darkness
the score stood 6 to 6. Thomas Gavin
won the 100-yard dash event, and P. J.
Kelly the running broad jump. Other
winners were: Tim Connerty, throwing
l6-lb hammer; Thomas Gavin and J.
Behrens, three-legged race; John J. Len
doh fat mems race; Patrick J.
O'Rourke, potato race; Joseph Ward,
sack race: James P. McGovern, obstacle
race: A J. Goldstein. running hop, step
and jump; McGovern's Rising Sun Roar
ers tug-of-war.
The committee in charge of the games
consisted of Patrick Cooney, John
Woods, John Murphy. James Lennon,
George Ryan, Patrick Tarp, Thomas
Whelan, Thomas Hanlon, Herman Hoff-
man and James Post.
The committee that arranged the out
ing consisted of Bernard J. Lennon, Err
nest Sietas, Patrick F. Ward, Thomas
]. Finnerty, James Amrock, Michael
Gavin, Patrick F. Connolly, Edward P.
Marrow, William j. Whelan and John
Flick
The poet of the day was so inspired
that he burst forth as follows
Right merry was the party,
The truth I'm bound to tell,
That formed the human freight aboard
The good ship isabelle"
That it was famous "Outing"
We all can understand.
They marched with fine precision
To the tunes of Holden's band.
And upon this grand occasion
Our ]. P reigned supreme,
His princely gait and manner
Were like charming dream.
His friends-and they We're hundreds
Turned out in bright array
To do their leader honor
Upon his "Outing" day.
Each heart with JOY was beating
Upon the noble ship.
