Not to Allow Use Of Grounds
TO Anybody Free Of Charge
BIZ snroiai Corr,srrrdsnf

TOT1ENNILLE, May 16:-At a
meeting Of the Tottenville Athletic
Club held at the clubhouse this week
a resolution was passed to the effect
that hereafter the grounds of the
club situated in Sprague avenue
would not be loaned out to any or
g~anization or school free of charge.
This action was taken, il is said. fol-
lowing some games held by school
boys tlis week. according to Corne-
Illus Shea, the president of the club,
that q number of the boys took the
heavy ground roller and broke down
part Of the high board fence.
This will mean that il the band
concerts given under the direction OF
the park department of the City of
New York are to be given there this
summer the city must lease the
grounds for hat purpose.
The T~ottenville Athletic Club has
been very generous since they have
owned the grounds TO let the city and
the school children use the property
at all times free of charge, but they
claim that so much damage has been
done they must call a halt in the use
of the property in this manner. The
club is now putting the property In
condition for the opening of the base
ball season that will probably take
place the latter part of this month.

Ruggles Campgrounds, July 27--
The usual first Sunday crowd Is here
today, and that, too, in spite OF the
terrific heat. The most Of the crowd,
however, came during the afternoon.
In the olden times the crowd came In
the early morning, but now since the
advent Of the automobile the folks are
likely to come in any old time. And 1t
seems that today they have chosen to
travel in the heat Of the day. Mays
Vile is represented in large numbers.
Heading the procession is George
Frank who never fails Old Ruggles.
And when he Is here he makes pref
ty good Methodist, He is more than
welcome today for another special
reason: those two hatless QUOT fans
appealed to his sympathy and will re-
ceive each a new straw as soon as
George can get It to them. Come Of
tenl Among the many Maysvillians

the service at which he preached.
DR.. Bunton gave the young people
sample Of the kind Of services he
conducted here years ago when he had
charge Of these services for the whole
campmeeting. He gave an exposition
of Pauls letter to Philemon that was
the most instructive, entertaining and
helpful we have ever heard.
Another big increase in attendance
was noted at the evening service when
DR.. Bunton preached on "The Devil to
Pay. DR.. Bunton and Rev. Ashley
sung very effective duet, Redeemed
just preceding the sermon. The au-
dience was visably impressed.
Miss Lillian Muse arrived this after
noon from indianapolis and will be a
guest at the Richardson cottage dur
ing the campmeeting.
Mrs. Gertrude Fetter Of Chicago, ar
rived today to attend the campmeeting
and visit her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. g.
N. Harding.
The Rev. Mr.. Culpepper, promi-
ment pastor of Kansas City, is stopping
for few days at the camp on his way
to Flemingsburg.
Mr.. A. q. Parsons and family OF
Marion, Indiana, motored through ar
irving in camp late this afternoon.
They will spend few days guests at
the DR.. Irwin cottage. Mr.. Parsons is
one Of the old-time Ruggles campers
having been a convert here forty-three
years ago. He is having great time
shaking hands with old friends and
enjoying the meetings.
Master Asa and Miss Grace Walling-
ford Of Maysville came out today to
camp for a few days in the Old Ken
lucky Home.
Two couples from the camp were
out buggy driving this morning came
to grief about mile from the camp
when their buggy broke down causing
the crowd to foot 1t to camp in the hot
sun.
Two of our most ardent QUOT fans
became so interested in the game last
evening that they took off their hats
to play better laying their hats on one
of the seats about the trees. After the
game they came right in without
thinking of their fine straws. And
they never did think of them until they
started out in the sun today. Both
searched their cottages diligently for
their hats without success. Then they
searched the tabernacle and every 9TH
err place but the section where they
left them. Finally Sam Carpenter
went out that way and shortly came
back toting the wrecks of two straw
hats. Evidently the campmeeting goat
had tried to make his supper on them
but as they were not made up of diges-
table material he had to give 1t mp as a
had lob. And those two QUOT fans are
hatless away out here miles from a
hat store. Just what mode of proce-
dure will be adopted for the future mas
not as yet been decided upon For the
nresent. however, they are wearing a
pair of "Old Hickories."
