+. The newsboys of The Courier stat
were the guests Of this paper and co,
7. Kennedy at the greatest carniva
on earth last night. TO say they "a
joyed themselves to the limit hardly
expresses their appreciation Of the
treat given them by the generous
show man, who worked his way up
from newsboy by his own efforts.
Under the guidance Of Chris Huston
they marched to the ball park, each
wearing small ribbon on which was
printed THE Daily Courier" and with
one Of the show representatives Wis
tied the different attractions. They
were delighted with the illusion shown
in Gilman's Palace OF Wonders. thor
oushly enjoyed the curious people they
saw In Bozell's annex. and simply
went wild over the daring riding n
the autodrome and the performing
animals in the Hippodrome.
B It was close to 10 o'clock before
they had made the rounds OF the shows
and when they were through they
were a tired but happy lot Of young
.sters, from whose faces beamed the
gratitude they felt towards Mr.. ken
,nedy for his kindness and II expressed
their appreciation better than words.
Gee, Chimmy, wasn't It great"
shrieked one urchin to his brother,
and that about expressed the senti-
ment Of all the boys, who will long
remember their visit to the Con j..
Kennedy shows.
