Glen Picnic.
MAY TRY OUTING AGAIN
A FEW HUNDRED PEOPLE FROM
THIS CITY AND OTHER POINTS
ON RICHMOND DIVISION RRAv.
ED WEATHER.

Rain which commenced at an early
hour this morning kept down the at
tendance OF the fifth annual outing
OF the employees Of the Richmond divi-
sion of the Pennsylvania railroad
company and their families at Glen
Miller park, to less than a thousand
people. Those who braved the unfavor-
able weather conditions spent the day
IN dancing in the pavilion and enjoy
ing indoor games, although a part of
the athletic program was carried out.
The company officials and committees
in charge were much disappointed at
pected crowd of no less than five
thousand would attend.
1t is barely possible that another
date for the outing this summer will
be set.
Excursion trains were run from Lo-
gansport and Cincinnati, the extremi-
ties of the Richmond division. Be-
tween two and three hundred arrived
on each train and the number was
swollen by the attendance of employees
and their families who live in this
Ter park and placed on a siding. The
return trips will be made about 5
o'clock this evening.
Everything had been attractively ar
ranged for the reception of the visit
ors and the park had never been more
beautiful than yesterday. The grass
In all parts had been cut and raked up.
The flower beds were in full bloom,
the plants having been set out earlier
in the week, especially for the occasion.
In addition to these arrangements the
railroaders had constructed two
frame arches. one being placed at the
Twenty-second and Main street en-
trance and the other north of the lake.
The arches are SO appropriate that an
effort will be made to have them left
in position until after the state NUM-
cipal league meeting here this month.

club conferred with the board of works
on the dust nuisance, and an effort will
be made to compel the sprinkling of
streets. The board reported that an
inspection of the new West Side hose
house had been made and everything
was found to be satisfactory.
A petition for a sidewalk on the
west side of North Thirteenth street
from the railroad tracks to H street
