How HE DID lT.
(Harper's Weekly.)
“When I was connected with a cer-
tain western railway," says a promin-
ent official of an eastern line. “we had
in our employ a brakeuiau who. for
special service rendered to the road.
was granted a month‘s vacation.
“He decided to.spend his time in a
trip over the Rockies. We furnished
him with passes.
"Ho went to Denver, and there met
a number of friends at work on one
of the Colorado roads. They gave him
ngood time, and when he went away
made him a present of a mountain
goat.
”Evidently our brakcman was aha
loss to get the animal home with him,
as the express charges were very heu-
vy at that time. Finally. however.
hitting upon a happy expedient, he
made out a shipping tag and tied it to
the horns of the goat. Then be pre-
vented the animal to the office of the
stock our line.
"Well, that tag created no end of
amusement. but it served to accom-
plish the. end of the brakcmnn. It was
inscribed as follows:
" ‘Pleuse pass the butter. 'l‘hOmns J.

It was in making the rounds of the
different. craft that, the launch of Mr.
Blspbam struck a rock near shore and
nearly capsized.
All of the boats then proceeded to
the Tokcucke bridge, where the pa-
rade was formed, and then, led by the
Ajax, with a monster reproduction of
an aeroplane towering above and tow-
ed by George R. Van Alstyne'a launch,
the parade wendcd through the devi-
ous channel amid the bright glare of
red and green lights, past the long low
shores lined with spectators of the
that event of the kind that Tokeaeke
has even seen.
in the judges' stand at the property
of Mr. Mellon were Commodore W. S.
Hatfield, of the Norwalk Yacht Club.
Commodore P. H. Fielding, of the East
Norwalk Yacht Club, and Franklin
Lynch. of llowayton.
As the different boats passed in re-
view before the Judge-3' stand a more
cosmopolitan group could hardly be
imagined; Dusky ludlane chatted frec-
ly with pretty farther girls and a con-
, ii of devils wer seen earnestl talk-
andSsnative lash '1 9 e y
tag to Elaine. in the float representing
Longfellow}; poem Elaine and Father
Time.
in the parade the different craft
were seen in detail by the audience
and as each passed in review it was
greeted with much applause and toot-
ing of automobile horns.
The float of Philip H. Fielding, a.
twenty foot skiff. was tastefully decor-
ated to represent a swan. In the bow
stood Miss Zada Dean and on a throne
in the stern was Mrs. Fielding. cos-
tumed in white. The craft was agreed
upon by the judges to be the winner of
a silver cup.
Miss Nina Swift hall a canoe prettlly .
decorated to represent a buying scene
and this received its share of alien
t on.
The feature of the parade. however,
was a Cililix‘ bearing a huge illuminat»
ed watermelon. towed by a skiff dcc.
oratcd with green foliage and a palm
the under which a darkey was sitting
playing a guitar and singing southern
melodies. The float was the idea of
niohn T. Mellon anti won a silver cup—
oue of the two donated by the resi-
dents of Tokencke. the guests at the
Ian and the 'l‘okeneke Corporation.
Among other things represented by'
the differ?!“ floats, was the old jingle,
The Owl and The Pussy Cat. who went
to sea in a boat; everyone knows the
rest. Clark attd .1055 Allen had their
canoe: nicely
wore costumes of the Toread re. The
float of the Misses Lynch and Dicker-
son was very unique. the boat being
dressed to represent Quaker Oats and
having a hay slack in the stern with
a pretty dairymaid reclining there.
The Misses Norton and Keene were
very tastefully attired as Sioux mold-
cns and had an Indian wlgwam in the
stern and a camp fire in the bow. '
S. Braytou was right up to date with
a popular cartoon representing Roose-
velt in Africa, with Kermit in the mid-
dle and a little “native’ in the bow.
Franklin Lynch, of Rowayton. as he ‘
arose from the judges stand to an-
nounce the winner took a step forward
to llltlke his speech more effective,
and . ' I
it) some way managed to step 0! of ‘
the float into two feet of water. ,
delay in the announcement was the
only bad effect of the accident. After
the carnival a dance was enjoyed tr-
tbe. casino and refreshments were
served.
The residents or; the colony expect
to give the carnival again next year.
THE ANGELUS.
(Catholic Standard and Times.)
“I know nothing that saddens me
more than to return to our country
after having been a. little while in
Belgian) or Tyrol. There the poor
people seem to live wonderfully in
the presence of God," writes Father
slaltouey .
