the police, who wore loitering about the place by j
thc bundre I, no trimble. People with tickets begSU
arriving at an early hour. Shortly afterward tbe
wily specaiiator appeared with ins " Boy yet ticket.
Buy yer ticket 1 Give me 60 cents." Bynoon the
crowds bsd become dense in the streets anti the
park, and the pries ottered for tickets hv the
speculators ross to .fl. They were bold after?
ward for f.". A few tumut"* pus: 12 o'clock the
police slowly forced linc*, ibo throngs of p?ople
into Chatham, Centre, Frankfort and Nus-lui
sis. anti Park row, and cleared tbe plaza
before tb-City Hall. Then tue trouble began for
tin- police, slieet-v-nilt'i'M. street car drivers and
people ..vith tickets and people wit?ont tickets to

were nearly exhausted by keeping hat ik the htlcain

Men snd women, with blue "i white tickets
clutched convulsively in then hands, were con
stantly trotting out from the crowd of getting out
of the crowded street-cars, and s steady sire.mi
flowed through the gates on each side ol the cen*
tral entrance to tbe bridge. Now and then a man
would walk confidently ap to the gatekeepers sad
carelessly flip al?si week's pass ai them all in vam.
Then a party of sis would start to walk straight
through, with the lappets of tb.-ir soots thrown
back aud their chins elevated in an astonishingly
important manner. When gruffly asked to show
their tickets they would look disdainfully al tbe
gatekeepers, ihen -a/fat them reproachfully fora
moment and go down into their* latporketaw th
s flourish. After flsbing up a half-dozen of tbe
largo invitations to tho bridge opening and being
gently but firmly refused admittanco'tbey would
