expressed her feelings, were a little
''riled'' at a placard i'll public view

programme, which was pleasant di-
feysity from the usual routine of the
afternoon. After the compliments of
the day had been discussed by all par
ties, the curtains were drawn
and tempting repast was
shared by the guests, who were
crushed again by such insinuations as
mo smoking allowed in the presence
ofgentlemen," and another, ''Please do
not spit on the carpet" they evidently
expected callers from the McIntire resi-
dence, where the gum was served. The
Tmenu" was prOfuSe, and several rare
dishes were served in addition to the
other delicacies, such as oysters OH the
half-shell, picked pigs feet, bologna

liant throng of callers from 2 until D.
M, who found seven well-known and
popular "WeSt side" favorites in readi-
ness to show the ladies how to do the
proper act in receiving, and the ladies
were caught more than once,
taking notes upon the novel ideas
of the gentlemen for future use. The

ceiying by Rev. j. f. Stout, John Law
ton, r. N. Hare, |. ST.. Pierre, w. r.
Denis and James Dingle, who took their
turn III presiding at the table, which
received more compliments than per-
haps any other on the West side. Rev.
j. f. Stout and Mr.. LaWton evidently
had been there before, nevertheless
they urged their guests to partake
freely, for there was plenty of every
| thing and no doubt would be lots
left. The table was loaded with the
delicacieS of the season. Raw oysters
were served from large cake of ice,
| which served as most attractive cen
terpiece for the table. The three-min-
ute coffee was delicious, also the tur-
key; the lees, with angels food, were
carefully prepared for the guests. while
| the desert consisted of ''gum," which
the ladies seemed to appreciate as an
old friend. About seventy ladies had

open to their lady friends from O'Clock
until p. m. Mr.. MortensOn was to
have been assisted by Messrs. Campbell,

| men"-two backed out and, greatly to
the disappointment of the host, only
| one remained to share his troubles dur
| ing the afternoon; but. nevertheless,
Mr.. Harris smiling cOuntenance and
Mr.. Mortenson'S cordial greeting were
sufficient to warrant one of the most
enjoyable calls of the day. The decora-

way. About sixty ladies paid their re
spectS during the afternoon and all re-
port a lovely time.
