AND RICHMOND
HAD A HOLIDAY
While the People Went to Sec
the Big Boat Oh:-Thc
Crowd Handled,

Richmond yesterday spent day utterly
oniat and uneventful, but full OF the
,wt,r,nth and the sunshine of spring, Tho
weather was ideal for holiday and
offared the most unbounded opportunities
for fun and frolic, OF which there was
a considerable amount particularly around
tho outskirts of the city,
The effect that tho holiday had upon
the busy city life was a surprise to many,
Main Street WAS not deserted By n sood
deal, but the crowd was a struggling one
and the usually live and hustling street
looked uncommonly dull for week day.
All tho public school children had holiday,
as did also a number OF the private
schools. including nearly all the colleges,
Many business men closed their Offices
early and went home. Quite large nuns
Der OF small outings for the benefit Of the
children were arranged and some Of the
parks were the gathering places for
