WEDNESDAY, Feb. IL
Yesterday evening, Tuesday, Feb. 10,
some fifty invited guests filled the ele-
CANT parlors OF our esteemed fellow
townsman, Mr.. D. P. Tressler. The
social event which was foreshadOwed by
the neat invitations some days ago, was
one of those pleasant affairs-a surprise
birth day party to Mrs. Mary Tressler in
commemoration OF her fifty-second birth
day. Despite the chilling winds and
biting frost, we were all there "Do
myself no harm" and a jollier gathering
is seldom seen. Mrs. Tressler. as token
of regard from her friends was present
ed with set of China of 70 pieces, Rev.
j. A. Hammond making the presenta-
ton spcSeh. The parlors were well
lighted and warmed. A lunch was serV-
ed consisting of bread, meats, cof-
fee, cakes, pickles and oranges
which was heart y partaksn OF.
The host and hostess in their agreeable
manner fairly excelied themselves in
their efforts to please. Mrs. Tressler
had been invited to spend the day with
Hon. ]. W. 10y and was thus detained
until the merry party had assembled.
Credit Is due Miss Minnie T. for her tact
in managing the minutIa of the arrange
ments which helped to make the sur
prise success and the gathering enjoy
able. On the departure of the guests
all expressed themselves that Mrs. T.
might live to see many more as pleasant
birthdays.
