today. 1t is reported that Mrs. Hughes
wants some garden space. and that the

the little folks on different sides of the

longer before Mrs. Hughes had the or

real party.
1t is easy to see why Mrs Hughes
wants a garden. She is used to 1t. as she

KNIGHTS RIDE IN TOURNEY

Special Correspondence of The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Nd, July %, 1910.
The annual picnic and tournament for
the benefit of historic st. Johns Catholic
Church at Forest Glen, was held yester-
day. and, as usual. attracted a very large
gathering. several thousand persons from
Washington, various parts of the county
and other places being present. A thun-
derstorm upon the conclusion of the
tournament in the afternoon threatened
to bring things to an early end, but after
a downpour of about an hour the Skies
cleared and the festivities were resumed
and continued until midnight
The tournament began at 2:30 o'clock
and was watched with interest by the
large crowd which lined the course. But
six knights contested for the cash prizes
offered and the honor of browning the
queen of love and beauty and her MAIDS
CT honor, but they made up In skill what
they lacked IN numbers, and probably no
finer exhibition Of fitting has ever been
seen in these parts.
