The most distressing
tragedy of the kind thus far reported
since the opening of the 1909 outing
season is that involving the sudden

floods OF the upper Susquehanna. of
nine persons who were out for a
pleasure trip in a small rowboat. The
story of the accident is one which,
with slight variations, is repeated ov.

summer. There we're nine people in
a boat made to carry not more than
three; somebody stood up and STEP

careen and take water: then there
was a general panic, which resulted
in capsizing the boat: none could

1. When ever the senate committee

has made reduction in the house bill
he will vote to allow that reduction to

to square himself with his constituency

difference whether the party has repu-

whether it sees the handwriting on the

From Far and Near
Playground Congress.

From the Baltimore Sun.-The third
annual congress of the Playground
Association of America is a notable
assemblage of good people who gath
cred in Pittsburg yesterday. The
movement for childrens Fairgrounds
in the cities has been rendered neces-
sary by changes that have come to
pass. Not many years ago, wnen
cities were not as large as they are
now, and when q great majority of
the population dwelt in the country
and villages, there were abundant
Fairgrounds in even the large cities.
There were commons and vacant lots
within reach of most of the children,
and they spent a great part Of their
time out of doors. But in these days
there are few vacant lots near the
congested districts, and If there are
any they are generally fenced around.
The city child. therefore, has no play
ground but the street, unless some
benevolent association provides one.
And the street is the worst possible
place for child to be. He is there
in danger of life and limb from pass
ing vehicles; he is subject to every
evil influence. and is constantly COM
ing in collision with the policeman.
The timid and weak who stand in
most need of outdoor exercise do not
get it, and often grow up to be ply
steal weaklings. It is the object Of
the playground associations to pro.
vide lots where city children can play
their games in safety and where the
influences will be wholesome.

There are times when. because Of
insufficient water power. it is not
