occasion of his second Inauguration.
Judge +. p. Bradley and Mr.. w. ii.

Representative Brooks took the gentle
men under his official wing so to speak
and secured them seats in the front
row in the halo of the governors mag

About sixty of their friends beauti-
fully surrounded Mr.. and Mrs. G. II.
Jones Tuesday evening. The scheme
was plotted by the ladies and
Mrs. Jones was the special object
of their surprise, and they only
let Mr.. Jones into the secret be-
cause they wanted to use him. The
lady was decoyed to the home of Mrs.
Gleason, and while there the surprise
party invaded her own home and had
their own sweet way, Mr.. and Mrs.
Jones returning at an early hour to
find themselves surrounded with all |
means of escape cut of, but fortunate
ly in the hands of their friends. The
occasion for the demonstration Is the
removal of Mr.. and Mrs. Jones from
the community in which they have SO
long held an honored residence. AS a |
souvenir of the occasion the company
presented them with dozen solid sill
yer teaspoons and half dozen table
spoons of the same coin. 1t Is needless
to state that the occasion was a social |
success and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
The couple have been residents of Au. |
dubon for many years, active in society
and always promoting the best and |
highest interests of the community.
Mrs. Jones is lady of refinement and
true worth and she will be missed i'm
the society she has graced so long. OF
the genial Gill we will say briefly that
he's all right, and only express the com
mon sentiment in saying that his depar-
ture is regretted. The best wishes of
all go with them to their new home in
Carroll, to which place they remove
next week. !
