time. As had been planned and is

The ram. The afternoon game of
baseball was between O'Brien's Turks
and the Landfahrts, resulting in
score of 9 To 0 in favor OF the last

better game than the score would
Indicate. The odds were decidedly

if the victors would name the time
and place, his team would give the
Landfahrts another go, but one of his
stipulatlons was that Tanck should
be "out of the game.

of music of the vocal variety, for
instance the slnginng of a song to
the strains of "School Days." the
words for which were composed by
that prince of entertainers Emil

add to the spirit of the occasion. A
circus parade was also one of the
amusing Incidents of the day. which
came just before the departure for
home in the evening, the plcnickers
taking advantage of the dray horses
which were here to convey home the
crowd and their equipments. The
crowd reached the city about 9 o'clock
in the evening after one of the most
pleasant outings in their experiene.
