usual, but still she got there just
the same, for the main feature of
the occasion is feasting and merry
making, and we will wager that she
had as much to eat as any other
town of her size in the land and a
good time besides. The first exer.
cises of the day, appropriately
enough, vas TO return thanks to the
great and good giyer Of all our

held in the NJ. 4. Church in the

were had in town. The hotels all
had court men stopping over with

and so gave an extra good dinner.
DINNER PARTY AT DR.. TRIPPETT's.
One Of the most enjoyable dinner
parties we ever had the pleasure Of
attending, was given by DIR. aid
Mrs. Trippett 1t was rather a
Journalistic Party as the editors
of the Journal, Era and ARGUS
were all there, ami the way the good
things of life disappeared was strong
ly indicative of a famine. The table
was loaded down with all the deli
cacies of the season, turkey, oysters,
celery, mince pies, etc, in abund-
ance. Bro. White eat three dishes
of oysters, two dishes of celery, four
mince pies and a half of a turkey,
and would have eaten more, but was
too bashful to ask for it. Brother
Dawson did not eat quite so much,
but left Immediately after dinner,
most likely to fill an engagement
somewhere else. As for ourselves, we
probably ate more than Bro. White
for eating is more than half of our
living, and we expect to eat as long
as we live (that is with slight inter
missions of course.) The dinner
spoke volumes for Mrs. Trippett's
cooking, and the Doctor and her
know how to entertain their friends.
The guests were, Mr.. and Mrs. Jno.
S. and Frank Murdoch, Mr.. and
Mrs. W. NJ. o. Dawson, Mr.. and
Mrs. James Flynn and son, Mrs.
Col. Monroe, Attorney l. G. Lazzell,

top is composed of three triangler
pieces of red, blue and yellow plush,
emblematic of the order with the

that of some fair hands, but we do

high body. He began his political
career in 1853, when he was elected
a member Of the Ohio State Senate,
from Hamilton county, and was
elected to congress three years later.
In 1854 he was the democratic nom
inee for ice-President, running on
the ticket with George B. McClel-
Ian. He entered the United States
Senate the 4th of March. 1878 as
the successor Of Stanley Matthew.
His chief political reputation of late
years rested upon his advocacy Of
the civil service reform bill, which
he originated, and which owed it's
passage mainly TO his labors and
sagacity. He was appointed Minis
ter to Germany by President Cleve-
land and was considered a model
d%iplomatist. His speeches and
public addresses were models of
GOOD taste N oratOrlcal strength.
His name had already been men
toned by the papers as a probable
candidate to succeed Hon. Henry
b. Payne in the United States SEN
ate from Ohio, but it is likely Mr..
Pendleton would have declined the
honor, as he has remained abroad
for several years and has been in
very poor health. 1t is said that he
never ceased to grieve over the la
mented death of his wife. In his
death the country loses one of its
most brilliant men and the Demo
cratic party a life long and con sist-
ent member.
