The Thursday evening dinner party
given by Mr.. and Mrs F. L. Tibbits,
to few of their most intimate friends
the past week was an enjoyable occa-
sion for all present. Their spacious
home was pleasantly warmed and illu
minated. Their bounteous repast was
beautifully served and the turkey was
sufferer indeed. The table and room
decorations were tasty and stylish. A
good time was enjoyed by all. Mr..
and Mrs. Tibbits have model home
and are social in the best sense of the
word. Their kindness is appreciated
Rev. A. Smith, of the NJ. E. Church
delivered a very excellent sermon
Thanksgiving day at the Cong'l.
church. The attendance was not
large, and a number Of business men
have invited Mr.. Smith to repeat the
sermon next Sunday evening at the
Methodist church, at which time the
public, and the business men in partic-
ular. are invited to be present. The
sermon is highly spoken of by those
who heard it. Remember the time
and place and come out and bring
your neighbors with you
The friends of G. w. Thayer have
taken steps with view to combining
him in the Insane Asylum. They
believe that Thayer is insane. and that
his further detention in Jail and the
lack of suitable and proper medical
treatment, would render him incurably
insane. Upon their application, Judge
Webb has ordered that an inquiry be
made as to his mental condition, and
the matter will come up for hearing
before him at Grand Rapids Pilot.
This case will come up some time next
week
Poor Will. butcher But few
days ago he came into this office and
said he was going to Eau Claire for
short time and wished us to send his
paper there until he returned. Mon
day friends were shocked to learn of
his death at the above city by the
accidental discharge Of gun. There
is not man in the city of Merrill of
nobler manhood than was friend
butcher, and not one whose death will
be more deeply deplored than his,
Generous hearted, kind and true, his
virtues will ever linger in the memoir
les Of those who knew him. Previous
to coming here he was for long time
resident of Grand Rapids, and was
held in the same h Ugh estimation by
the people. Poor Will.--MerrsW Neus
The Cadott Record offers the follow.
ing which hits the nail square on the
head. "When times are dull, and
everybody hard pushed to meet engag-
ments, it is particularly necessary
that all people should use every dollar
in the payment of outstanding obliga-
tions. By doing this, the little mon
ely that is in circulation will be ena-
bled to do the more work, and thus
reduce the pressure of the stringency.
If every dollar is put to its most neces-
sary use, it will be more toward the
good times hoped for in the future
than any other thing that can be done.
To wear ones old clothes, live econom-
ically and pay ones debts, are the
most needed acts of the hour"
