The Excursion Yesterday. I
The excursion given oil ttic steamer
nusiort yc'stcrday to Smithvillc and
the Forts, under the i auspices of St.
Paul's Lutheran Sunday School, was
very largely attended and highly en
joyed, despite the unpleasant weather,
i . i . j
it was, peruaps, me largest crowd
whiclj has gone dovn the river on any
one day tins season. The boat return
ed to her wharf at 01 o'clock, in good
time. -Is!
A Heartless Hoax.
. Some miscreant circulated a report on
the streets yesterday afternoon to the ef
fect that the steamer Passport had been
sunk. There were no particulars, only
it was said by some that all on board
were saved. It was said that a dis
patch to this effect had been received
here. On hearing the report, we
promptly applied to our obliging friends
at the Signal Office for its confirmation.
We were told that they .ha1 heard
nothing of it, but immediately tele
graphed to Smith ville fofinformation
and soon telephoned us that there was
not a word of truth in the report. NeV-
ertheless, there were but a few
who heard the
while in the
contradiction,
absence of
and
au-
tnenuc mlormation many, were dis
posed lo.characterize tho rumor.at once
as false, yet there wasj a widespread
feeling of distress fei especially by
those who had relatives' 'or friends on
the boat. There was a rery large
crowd assembled at the dock on tho re
turn of the boat and feelings of intense
indignation Were expressed at the heart
less hoax which had been perpetrated.
We are both to believe that the report
was concocted and circulated malicious
ly but if it was we would be glad to see
the heartless miscreant chucked over
board and given a rood ducking.
Uppincotfs Magazine.
The contents of LippincoWs for Aug
ust are light and summery throughout,
suggestive of mountain rambles and
sea-side excursions. "St. Jerome's
Day with the Pueblo Indians" is a
well-illustrated paper descriptive of a
half-religious, half-barbaric festival in
New Mexico. An Adirondack j Home"
will be read with eager interest. 'The
Romance of Childhood", is a charming
paper, tinged with a delicate fancy, by
turns tender and playful: Mrs.' M. G
Van Rensselaer's concluding paper on
tho Alieghanics gives a deeply interest-
the urince missionary who did so
much for the earlyj civilization of
the mountajn regions of Pennsylvania
Bay Beauties and Bay Breezes," is
very amusing; wnue an amcie on
'Shires and Shire Towns in the South,"
traces in a manner that will be j new to
most readers the influence jof these ter
ritorial divisions on social; habits and
political ideas in the Southern States
The new serial, "Fairy Gold," grows in
interest. The short stories, Edge-
