The second aunual reunion of the graduates of the Tiooeeta Keeley In stitute is a thing of the past, but its pleasures will long remain, a green spot in the memory of those who par ticipated actively in the festivities of the occasion. The morning train brought large delegations from Oil City und Titusville, while a later special traiu of several coaches land ed an immense throng from Fraoklin, Meadville and the country surround ing, the men-folk being accompanied by their wives and families, until the strangers within our gates numbered considerbly above the thousand mark. The threatening aspect of the clouds in the early moroiog no doubt kept hundreds from atteudiug, yet, as it turned out, a more perfect day for such au affair could not have been ma jo to order. At the depot the first arrivals weie met by local committees of the Tio nesla League, as the graduates alight ed from the trains the regulation blue and gold badge being adjusted to each man's coat lapel. The second train was met by a still larger party, aod at the west end of the bridge the party was formed in line and paraded through the principal streets, headed by the famous north western band of Meadville, finally breaking ranks at the picnic grounds at the upper eud of town. Here Manager F. A. Wheeler called the meeting to order and bade all a hearty welcome on behalf of the town and the Tiuuesta League. Rev. Rankin offered prayer, and followed this by a most hearty address of wel come. Hon. J. G. While, of Mer cer, delivered the set speech of the day, which abounded in logic, pathos and humor. He was frequently in terrupted by hearty applause. Dinner was announced immediate ly after the spoakiog, aud the large crowd present gathered about the tables, or in little parlies throughout the grove as it suited them, all giving themselves up to the enjoyment of replenishing the iuner mau, holdiog little reuuiona of their own aud hav ing a good time generally. Dinner over, a large percentage of the crowd drifted toward the dancing pavilion, where all who wished indulged in trip ping the "light fantastic" to the de lightful strains of Coleman's orches tra, while others watched and many wished, no doubt. These festivities lasted until late iuto the night. Dur iug tho afternoou the Keeley clubs of Franklin aud Titusville played a game of base ball which afforded no little amusement for the spectators, Franklin, as usual, winning the game by a score of 20 lo 15. The festivities of the day were brought to a close by a social meeting of the League at lha club room, where greetings aod farewells were said, and the second annual reunion of the Tionesla Keeley League was at an eod. There was a geueral ex pression of praise among the visitors lor the people of Tionesla for the hos pitality shown ou this occasiou, and doubtless many will vote lo hold the thiid annual here next year.
