Dancing went on all the time, couples
coming and going and round dancing
being succeeded by quadrilles. Some
times 1.-the and sinuous jig-dancer
got a space cleared for himself to dis
port in, and great was the enthusiasm
when some girl would accept a chal-
lenge and come out on the boards to
do turn with the jig-dancer Such ad-
vancing and swaying and retreating;
such apparent Indifference and then
uneXampled vigor; such a hammering
of the boards and turning and twist
ing, until at the end the crowd roared
its approval and the dancers disap-
peared among the spectators.
Political society at the picnics, dem
Ocratic as it seemed at first blush, had
its lines of demarcation, which were
quite noticeably drawn. The wife and
daughters of the big boss" were on
hand, together with the women-folks
of the various office-holders, but they
did not mingle with the average lady
picnickers. They sat by themselves
in something of exclusive grandeur,
and were pointed out by the more
ordinary of the merry-makers to their
companions.
Sometimes a possible presidential
candidate graced the occasion by his
presence and consented to hand out a
sample of silver-tongued oratory. But
never heard one yet who could draw
away any of the attendance at the
baseball game or the fat women's race.
There's limit, even to oratory.
Great was the CONSERVATION when,
as sometimes happened, the flood.
gates of heaven opened and drowned
the picnic grounds. The last political
picnic | attended commenced on a
very threatening day, and at last the
clouds seemed to make up their minds
to sweep the grounds. Our party had
taken alarm, with a number of others,
and had gone down the track to where
the first train to town was stationed.
The crowd got there and jammed the
train instantly. Just opposite the pic
mic ground, and a half mile from US,
was wide platform, uncovered, on
which stood hundreds who were wait.

said the conductor; mo stop till we
get to Chicago" Away we went, and
as we passed the picnic grounds hun
dreds more came down through the
drenching showers in white dresses
that stuck to their limbs and straw
hats that were being soaked to ruin.
But the train went past regardless Of
their yells, and as it went by the car
windows were raised and the chorus
of the latest song was waited into
their ears:
ooh! amt dat awful,
Amt dat a shame;
To keep my baby
Out in the rain.
