The train was returning from an
Alabama coast resort, and was heavily
laden with passengers.
When the passengers learned that
the old ex-slave had perhaps saved
their lives, they took up large collec.
tion.

himself up to the people as the para

FUN FOR THE JOINERS.

The American institution par excel
lence may be said to be the secret So
ciety. In this class none is more popu-
lar than the one which provides for oc-
casional public frolics, like the Knights
of Momus, the Hoo Hoos, the yelled
Prophets, and many others. A new
society has been formed at San Diego
called the Order of Panama and in
the latter part of July of this year the
society will hold a five days pageant
and carnival in the exposition city Of
the southwest which will attract visi-
tors from all parts Of the country. Ex-
cursion trains will take throngs of peo-
pie to the beautiful city where the
summer airs lightly caress one and in
duce forgetfulness of the heat and
dust and summer fatigue that was left
behind, at home. The Order of Pana-
ma is picturesque organization. II
is largely. an auxiliary of the exposi-
tion idea, and it will De worth watch

a celebration, it will be a signal for
the clans to gather, for it will be well
understood that then there will be
something doing"
