Perhaps she may wish to provide against the accidental meeting of friends, but as everybody-else does exactly the same thing, the mystery remains unsolved.

Nearly everybody is on the qui vive over the coming grand celebration in honor of the Fourth or July, to be given for the benefit of the suffering poor of Ireland, at Forest Park, on Monday of next week, July 5th. Every preparation is being made by an active committee to insure the com-pletest pleasure to everybody who shall be wise enough to attend. The chief thing in order will be a basket picnic, and everybody is expected to forget about dinner at home. There will be speaking by Rev. Father Dalton, of Kansas City, one of the eminent divines of the day, and also by Judge Benson, Mason and II.

The Sunday question is just now the subject of considerable newspaper discussion in the east. A number of journals are publishing each week papers from prominent thinkers and leading divines touching the question. The matter has even reached the unregene-rate city of Chicago, and a number of theatrical managers have decided to close their theatres on Sunday during the coming season. Last Sunday Governor Rusk, of Wisconsin, gave the use of the hall of the house of representatives of that state to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers in wrhich to hold their meeting. On the same day a leading divine of Madison flayed the governor in some very strong language for "thus encouraging a violation of the Sabbath." As Ottawa, and in fac', all Kansas, with the possible exception of Leavenworth, is a moral city and state, it is not necessary that any discussion of this question be generally indulged in here.

In the refrains the audience joined with perhaps more enthusiasm than harmony, but it was a very happy and enjoyable time never-the-less. Old soldiers sang until they were hoarse, regardless of key or time, and fair women waved their 'kerchiefs as though they desired to ribbon them. Hats were thrown high in air, as some old favorite strain that had sounded through the bivouac, near thirty years ago swept through the tabernacle, and hundred's leaped to their feet and cheered again, as they cheered when Appomattox was won. At o'clock, Governor John' A. Martin, and Rev.

O. II. Tiffany addressed the multitude. We have no space to-day to give even an epitome of the eloquent remarks of the gentlemen but they were listened to with great earnestness. For some reason, which only that great statesman can give Sen.

Plumb, as hat been customary with him from time immemorial, disappointed the people who had very good reasons for expecting to hear him. At 1 o'clock the 'members of the G. A. R. formed at the central enclosure, and passed under formal review by General Logan, who was mounted on a white charger.

This was one of the most brilliant spectacles of the day. The" over, everybody went to dinner; and such dinners, out under the trees I Families joined into big groups, and Mrs. Jones' pickles, Mrs. Smith's preserves, Mrs. Brown's fried chicken and daughter Susie's cake were distributed promiscuously and duly commented upon and complimented.

The eating houses were overrun to that extent that every waiter nearly went out of the wits he had left over from yesterday, and the tills of the smiling proprietors groaned under their weight as did their tables. Occasionally a dismal bachelor, or a lonely single gentleman like unto the business end of the Local-News could be seen slyly purchasing solidfied buns and shingle ham, under the dim that he was getting a sandwich, but as a rule everybody was provided with just exactly twice the amount of food that he or she possibly could eat.

Pater familias wore his store clothes, and the women were gay with ribbons. Business houses displayed bunting, and national cockades adorned coat fronts everywhere. Even before the east began to flash its lights over the prairies, the roar of in-coming wagons awoke the drowsy city dweller, and then came the loaded trains with their freight of excursionists, from Burlingi on, Emporia, Cherry vale, Iola, Garnett, Paola, Lane, Lawrence, and all along the line to Kansas City, came the throngs to revel in the pleasures at Forest Park. There was never a "bigger" day in Ottawa. The weather is most delightful; just warm enough to induce one to seek the shade of the Park, even if one had not been for weeks preparing for the very occasion.

Cooks were given a holiday, and kitchens a rest for the day, for everybody took a well-laden lunch basket, and enjoyed a hilarious dinner under the trees. In the city, Grand Army headquarters werej opened at 0:30. Hundreds of old soldiers and sailors reported, and then proceeded to the Park headquarters which are located at the Congregational tent. The members of George II. Thomas Post were on duty promptly at 6 o'clock to receive visitors, and special details were on hand on the arrival of the various excursion trains.

Captain Shapter and his gallant company also reported early for duty, and acted efficiently during the day. As stated yesterday in the Local-News a special escort went to Kansas City to meet General Logan and to attend him to the city. The party was comprised of A. W. Kuhn, as.

llobb, C. W. Oldroyd, and W. L. Kerr of the Local-News.

The train conveying Gen. Logan's car reached that city at 7 :30. The General (except what time he took to visit a barber Bhop)4remained in his car during the stop at Kansas City, and to say that he received an ovation, would be but to lightly express it. He held a perfect levee; hundreds pressed into the car, to shake hands with the genial old hero, and the throng was still crowding, as the train pulled out at 10-o'clock. The Ottawa party was supplemented by Gov.

Martin, Commander Mc-Divitt of the department of Kansas G. A. lion. McNulty, and Senator Plumb's private secretary. Governor Martin and Senator Logan indulged, during the ride, in expressions of vigorous language reflecting upon President Cleveland's action as to the pension bills, both bitterly denouncing His jnexplainable veto idiocy.

General Logan invariably spoke of him as "that fellow." General Logan was greatly entertained during the trip by Mr. Robb'a well-known conversational powers; that gentleman was assiduous in attention and greatly impressed the Genera).

Wright when he arrived. JJut they didn't see him. Cap. Boltwoodknew a trick worth two. of that.

The train was halted at Seventh street, and the prisoner taken off there and rushed over to the jail. In a Local-News interview Morg. disclosed the route of his wanderings. He has come pretty near living on nothing and had hard work to get that. At eleven o'clock of the night of the fracas he stole back to his house, and avoiding even his wife succeeded in getting a quantity of clothing.

He then took a course through Jeffries' factory yard, crossed the railroad at the Forest mills site, and stole his way to Rich mond's ford where he waded the river. He then cautiously took his way through the bottom brush to the neighborhood of Quenemo, where he laid hidden for two days. Finally forced by hunger he sought a farm house and purchased of a woman a loaf of bread and fifteen cents worth of "shoulder," which he devoured at one meal. He then took a southerly course, and followed the Verdegris river for some distance. At Coffey ville he found an asylum with one Parks (an old Ottawa boy), but ventured out one day and was seen and recognized by Engineer Jiruce Lynch, who divulged that fact to the officials.
