deed excellent in every way. The service
at the tables was everything that could
be asked for, the little misses stopped not
there, but the following morning return
ed everything to its place and cleaned
out the room in great shape. The leader
OF the girls was Miss Oracle Weld, and
We are sorry that we have not the names

Attention has lately been drawn

He Sued Himself.

Some years ago, when Judge II. &.
Hicks was not as prosperous as he has
been in later years, says the Minneap.
oils Tribune, he owed little bill o.
$25 to a well-known firm and one of the
members came to see him about it.
The judge, then plain colonel lately
returned from the war, frankly con-
fessed that he was ''busted" and asked
for an extension of time.
"Can't do it, said the gentlemen;
'if you don't pay it we'll have to sue
YOU"
"How can I pay when haven't got
the money!" asked the colonel. Cali
I want is little time"
"Well, we'll have to bring suit, y
sid the gentleman, as he started off.
s.Hold on" said the colonel, as a
bright idea struck him. eff you must
sue me why not give me the casep You
will have to employ some lawyer"
That's so," said the gentleman;
'.all right bring the suit"
Col. Hicks brought the suit, confess
ed judgment sent in his bill for $50
attorneys fees, collected it, then set
tied the judgment From that time on
he had all the firms law business
