excursionists including over a dozen 

 bailies. The committee worked hard 

 and deserves great appreciation; to 

 carry such an outin.? to so successful 

 a conclusion, was no easy task. The 

 sail up the Sound and back to Wetzel's 

 occupied a couple of hours. Dinner 

 was ready on arrival and it was a 

 good one. There was plenty of music 

 and the games were all completed in 

 time for the return sail at 7 o'clock 

 as arran.ged. No accident occurred 

 except a few falls by fat folks who fall 

 easy and without much damage. 



The judges of the dozen babies on 

 the return voyage were a lon.g time 

 making their decision and ex-presi- 

 dent Traendley's boy was the winner. 

 The balance of the trip was spent by 

 the six judges in hiding. The only 

 remedy for this year's disappointed 

 mothers is to try again. Nearly one 

 hundred ladies bowled and three 

 frames decided the fifteen handsome 

 prizes. The married men trounced the 

 bachelors at base-ball and the grow- 

 ers tugged the other fellows over the 

 line, leaving the ground strewn with 

 the exhausted. It was the most ex- 

 citing contest of the day. 



All the children were made happy 

 with prizes, candy and "consolation." 

 The ladies' races were great competi- 

 tions and falls were many, but apart 

 from dust and torn dresses, and dis- 

 appointment, all is well. The fat men 

 were not many and with John Nugent 

 away, Traendly sailed in under liare 

 poles, and not even winded. 



The men's races were well contested 

 throughout, Lautenschlager of Chicago 

 leading all others in the quarter-mile. 

 About one hundred men participated 

 in the bowling and most of them, 

 judging by the scores, were nervous 

 and unstrung. It was a great outing, 

 and everybody was satisfied and 

 happy.
