Attended by Over Two Hundred Peo ple, Host of Whom Were from This Side Closing Exercises in No. 14 School Building Young Man from Cnrbondnlo Slightly De mented George Griffiths Dies from His Injuries Other Juno Wed dings Two Delightful Lawn Par tiesFuneral and Other Notes. Over two hundred people attended the Royal Arcanum excursion to Lake Lodoro yesterday, the majority being members of Lackawanna council and their families. A ten-minute walk brings one to the lake front, where the naphtha launches nnd row boats are in evidence at ten cents a trip for the former and twenty five cents nn hour for the latter. The llrst impression of the lake Is not very encouraging, but after a ride over the water In the launches, which carries the passengers over a course of about throe miles, a better impression Is cre ated, from the fact that the shore point of view only gives a partial sight of its plcturesrmcness. If the water rises to what the at tendants claim Is the "high-water mark," there Is a possibility of Lodoro being more attractive than It is at present. During the afternoon a base ball game was played, which resulted in a. victory for the Scranton council by a score of 10-S. The excursion train loft the grounds nt C.l!i o'clock nnd arrived at S.30 o'clock. Much disappointment was felt nt the small attendance, nnd instead of having over two thousand, as ex pected, there was but few over two hundred on the grounds. GEORGE GRIFFITHS DEAD.
