in De Soto, Mo.
Our gentlemanly bicyclists, Smith, Hins.
dale and Collier, spent SUNDAY in Ironton,

struck this town in great shape.
1t has been a long time since the young
people of Granitevile have enjoyed such a
ball, party, or any other kind of an enter
tainment as the one given by the young
ladies and gentlemen of the Catholic Church
at Workman's Hall on last Tuesday evening,
on the event of ST. Patrick's day. The Hall
was beautifully decorated and everything
therein was artistically arranged. The music
by the Graniteville orchestra was superb in
all parts. The supper was given at Mrs.
Mason's, and was elaborated in all that goes
to appease ones appetite. The party was
one of the most enjoyable and successful of
the kind for many a day, and the net pro-
ceeds will go toward liquidating the church
debt $l15. The committee, Misses Cincy
and Mary Kerchner, Louisa FigneauX,
Messrs. Shea, Killalee, Carey, and the Gov
ernor are deserving of great credit for their
untiring efforts in thus making the affair re-
plete in every instance. The committee, or
at least major part of them, inform your
correspondent that they feel very thankful
to the people from neighboring towns for
their presence and liberal patronage. The
number present were 50 couple who took
part in the ball and some dozen or SO look
ers-on. Parties were in attendance from St.
Louis, Bismarck, Iron Mountain, Middle

Billey O'brien, a whilom resident of this
place, but who has been doing business in
St. Louis for the past fifteen months, has
returned, having bought half interest in
Mike Foley's livery stable and will resume
business in our midst again, as Billy is
jolly, good hearted sort of a fellow and
thorough business man, we give him
hearty welcome.
Mr.. T. G. Foley informs US that he and
family will start West about April 10Th
ostensibly for his wife's health, who has
been in delicate health for the past three
wears. 1t is to be hoped that himself and
his good wife, especially, will be wonderfully
benefited by their trip to the mountainous
regions.
The state of trade remains brisk as yet,
and we trust that it will continue so, and,
judging from the appearance of the weather
the past two days, it is safe to say, spring
with all her splendor is nigh at hand. The
next order of business, we believe, will be
general house cleaning; if so, please excuse.
