THE ball Wednesday evening,
Notwithstanding the limited attend
ance, passed off very agreeably
The music discoursed by the Ketch-
UNI Orchestra, with the artistic &C
compartments on the piano of Mrs.
C. NJ. Stole, was superb and re-
ceived many fitting compliments,
The only thing that had a tendency
to mar the pleasure of the occasion
was the fact that the proceeds were
not adequate to the expenses of the
ball. Several of the HALEY popu.
lists graced the hall with Their

THE time for election is drawing
near. The political pots are boil
ing, and the candidates for Office
are as thick as honey bees in the
month of flowery May. There will
be many poor fellow, after all his
waste of oratory, his cordial and
affectionate hand-shaking and the
repeated pledges of loyalty to his
dear constituents, find himself on
the day after the election sadly sail

candidates, preferring an overland
route from the scene of disaster,
may be heard crying out in stento-
rian tones, "a horse! a horse !! my
kingdom for horse Give me an

THE Lemon Squeeze Party Riyen

The Lemon Squeeze Party given
BY Mr.. and Mrs. II. G. Lewis AT
their charming home last Friday
evening, was delightful one aud
certainly was = highly novel affair.
The invitation cards were unique
and exceedingly pretty. The hand
painted lemon in tho corner, being
suggestive of the predominant fea-
ture of the entertainment. Invita-
tions were only sent to those socie-
ty people who walk in single "med-
itation fancy Free" so with the ex-
ception Of members Of the family,
married couples were not expected.
Now-of course there was squeez-
inE-oh! do not throw up your
hands in prudish horror-it was
only the lemons that experienced
the squeezing process-that was
imperative in order to find the
seeds-for upon the number Of
seeds depended the winning of the
prizes. Hon. George Mills and
Mr.. J. HI. Rumsey were the COM
mittee on that part Of the pro-
gramme, and they were as energetic
and interested in the counting Of
those tiny seeds as if each one was
q vote for Harrison. The lovely
parlors were redolent with the per-
fume Of sweet howers-those Of
yellow tone-as that was the pre-
vailing tint Of the evening. Bou-
tonieres Of margaretes,, chrisan-
theums, sweet peas and nastur-
tians were presented to each guest
as a souvenir. Oh! there was lots
of merriment for the young ladies
and gentlemen, and real enjoyment
for the older and more sedate ones
of the company. At intervals dur
ing the evening the guests were en-
tertained by choice musical selec-
ton rendered in a most artistict
style by Mrs. George J. Lewis who
presided at the piano, Mr.. Lewis
accompanying with the violin, and
Mr.. II. &. Lewis the cornet. At q
late hour dainty refreshments were
served by the courteous hostess
assisted by Miss Georgia Pillmer
The prizes were won by Mrs
George Lewis and Miss Kate Barry
the latter receiving the "booby'
prize.
