THE TEMPERANCE FROLIC AT FORT
DEFIANCE was the most innocent and jol-
" spree we have eyer had hand in. The
party went down early Friday morning
and was composed Of the Good Templars
of Staunton, both ladies and gentlemen.
They took dinner and supper in the grove
and were happy in dancing, swinging,
flirting and good hard counting from A.
M. till 10 P. NJ, just 10 hours of hearty
enjoyment. The managers were Heber
Ker, John W. Bryan, Chas. E. Haines, W.
B. Hyde, G. II. Kite and A Lauriot, assis-
ted by several active and efficient lady
friends of the worthy organization. The
party was not as large as was anticipated
owing to the affair not being generally
known, but if there had been thousand
present the evident enjoyment could not
have been added to one lota. at least 1T is
difficult to conceive how any more fun and
good fellowship could have been squeezed
into the same number of people in the
same time.
The proceeds Of the excursion are to be
appropriated to the entertainment of the
Grand Lodge Of Good Templars, which
meets in Staunton in November and quite
a handsome sum Was realized.
The courtesy and consideration OF Mr..
S. M. Woodward, the obliging Superinten-

and highly appreciated by the committee
