However when the (1. A. II. band of this city swelled its melody on the quivering air, and the American orchestra of Pittsburg began the most charming of waltzes when the sun le-gan to warm the air, and the boat to breast the rippling -river bright youth with happy hearts soon forgot the thermometre and remembered only the pleasures of the hour, while they chased health and pleasure all day with flying feet. The boat went to Rice's Landing without stop, which point was reached about six o'clock, and the return trip was made without anything to mar the pleasure of the excursion, and Home Again was played by the band at exactly one o'clock.

All who went were pleased; those who remained missed a delightful trip, a glorious dance and the very best of music. The manage-' ment was well conducted. Hugh Ifanna Married. On Wednesday evening, Aug. 80th.
