Sunday was the greatest day in the annals of the camp-meeting at Parks' Hill. The crowd was variously estimated the figures ranging from 7,000 to 10,000. The K. C. railroad conveyed fifty-two car loads, which may with safety be estimated at sixty passengers to the car, and aggregating 2,120. To this, ajld the 1,200 remaining in camp over Saturday night, and we have 4,320. There were probably 2,000 persons that came in private conveyances, thus making the aggregate of 6,320, which no doubt is but a fair estimate.. There never was a more orderly or select congregation on the grounds, and officers of the association are justly proud of the great success they have achieved.

SCAMP SQUINTULATIONS. One pretty Josie didn't wear a pretty "Josie." Watermelons were plentiful and in demand. There wasn't a drunken man on the grounds. Mother Hubbard pokes were cutely in abundance. One hour of justice is worth seventy years of prayer. The hotel was run for money not glorjr, this time.

The Cynthiana boys stole a valise and broke the combination lock with a rock, and extracted the cigars and whiskey therefrom. A chimpanzee looking scoundrel with a Seymour coat on, needed to be clubbed to death with a stocking of whitening, for jug-handling a fool girl around the grounds all day. "You're too postively bully," said a girl with a blood-red "Josie" on, to the half-pint gaudy gawk who handed her a glass of alderney colored lemonade. The lady with a stocking-leg of whitening and her eyes closed and mouth puckered like a customer in a barber's chair, could be seen in all directions at the camp-meeting Sunday. Miss Lummie Bos3 wore a dress Sunday which her mother wore thirty-five years ago. It was embroidered muslin scalloped over a blue satin underskirt. It was cool and refreshing, and was pro.ba.hly as much or- more than anything on the grounds. Black stockings and white dresses were worn a great deal by the belles, which made them appear in deplorable bad taste. In fact the girl on the top of the hill, wearied the eyes of overgrown youths and widowers at tfte fpp.t of the hjll, wjtli fye (Jarls an.3 forbc4mg scene, cmd caused those who would have been enraptured admirers under white and tin ted balbrlgan circumstances, to turn away and daze their eyes on the flashing cardinal, blue, and black-and-gray striped.

They were too cute to handle and were ault.e nicq enough o eaj. 'very ''lumix" who can procure a little scrap of his dear girls' "Josie" ought to get it and wear it in his pocket book next to his heart MUJXvasnu.'AW'f'riMfciiRKiMrFx That scarlet bunting dress with black lace trimmings and velvet skirt, was a regular whooper-up-Liza Jane, and attracted almost as much attention as that frieght brakesman with that cardinal woodpeckar hat. The dresseB of the campers were pretty much all of the cool refreshing plaid linen de Inde, lawns, and oriental linens. Those from a distance were of a go-as-you-please ball room, and costumes. The dear giddy little daisies, whose delight it was to giggle, fan and flirt, figured prominently over the the grounds with the hal in those those flaming little "Josie" jackets of scarletpink, cardinal, blue, and rose tinted satins, and looked as though they had but three breatharin their bodies, and would just as soon squander the last one as not, if some fellow had thumped a fiddle string and called out "balance all !"
