A SURPRISE PARTY.

Quite large number of people
bosicged the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harry Franklin last night about
8 o'clock. 1t was a surprise party,
a double surprise party we should
say, for their visitors wore masquer-
ade costumes.
Before the dancing commenced
Mr.. Franklin in a neat little speech
made the visitors welcome, and gave
into the hands of one of them key,
IA wooden one) telling them all to
make themselves at home.
Among the merry participants in
the maddening whiri, none were
merrier than Mr.. and Mrs. Franklin.
Mrs. Essenger represented an Italian
lambourine girl; Mcsdames Robbins
and Farrel were a pair of nights,
clothed in black silk adorned with
silver moons and stars; Mr.. Clarence
Perry was the devil, while his wife
appeared as the humble Red Riding
Hood; Tim O'Leary was a terrible
Turk, while his wife was a gentle
flower glrl; bIr. Cluxton was an
Irishman just over from the "ould
sod" and his wife represented Juani-
Ia; Mrs. w. L. Smith was a Spanish
princess; Miss Julia Cochran as
grandmother, was a perfect picture
of loveiness; Mrs. Trainer as for
tune teller, was exquisite; Mr.. Lewis
was a COW boy and Mr.. Dick Lara
more an Irishman. The following
ladies and gentlemen enjoyed them
selves without costumes: MesdameS
Ryan, Elliott, Sexton and Duncan,
Miss Edna Felitz, of Topeka, Kas.,
and Messrs. Robbins, Ryan and
Smith. About ~ O'clock luncheon
was served, consisting of coffee, that
was coffee,and sandwiches that filled,

college for the first time may be glad
to be reminded of some little things
which will be no trouble to put in the
trunks. but which will do much toward
making the new room more homelike
and the strange life little less strange
and busy, SAYS the New York Press.
Many coming college girls will board
in the college rooms, many more out
side the scholastic walls. In either case
the mothers must make up their. minds
that the rooms will be comparatively
bare, and that the walls will be the
barest part of tine rooms. There will be
urniture and carpet-that, most likely,
is all. Give your daughter some
pictures. then, and any pretty wall
decorations that can be devised. And
let her take some thin curtain drapery
to relieve the possible high, square
windows. Curtain poles can be pro-
cured when she arrives.
A table cover will never fail to be use
full in new room. Bureau decorations
will be limited to all but the covers,
which, of course, could not be made tc
fit q bureau you never saw. A laundry
bag-yeS, two, in order that one may be
always ready for uSe-and laundry
list cover will be real comforts. So will
one or two cushions made ready to be
stuffed with excelsior or anything she
chooses when the weary freshman be-
gins to think about lounging after her
room is arranged.
A simple little outfit of crockery and
silver may include a plate or two, cup
and saucer, small pitcher, fork, knife
and spoon and a fruit knife. Flower
glasses and vases, small scrap basket,
pen trap to keep the new table cover
from ink spots, a dainty letter opener
for use on all those hundreds of yet I'M
written letters, shoe bag,.a bangle
board-remember. these are only Sug-
gestions of some things that may be for
gotten, but they are drawn from the
depths of hard experience.
Engraved or written cards will be
much used for freshmen-yes, and all
the rest of them-to call upon each
other, unless they happen to be digs"

There is no prettier time in all the
year. in this climate, to celebrate mar
riage than in these late, perfect August
lays. All the brilliant wild flowers,
the yellow-plumed golden rod, and the
saucy-faced. black-eyed Susans are in
the freshness of their full bloom, and
the days are perfect.
Skies of Turquoise. flecked with the
heeciest of summer clouds, smiled down
yesterday OH the marriage of Miss
Laura Z. Henry and Edward Zim-
norman. The ceremony took place
at 4 O'Clock in the afternoon,
at the home of the bride, on Bates
avenue. The house was Just the pretti-
est setting for a wedding imaginable,
from the canvas-covered floors to The
SmilaX-hung doors, arches and chan
ielers. The drawing room was dressed
with yellow flowers. Golden rod nod
ded from vases and bowls. The mantel
was banked in yellow flowers, f1anked
by tall palms. The library was brilliant
with wealth OF scarlet blossoms.
The marriage was solemniZed In the
reception room, which was trimmed
with white and pink. under great bell
of roses. The afternoon shadows
we're just beginning to lengthen
when from the orchestra hidden
among the palms in the hall, there came
The familiar wedding chorus from Lob
engrin, and the bridal party entered the
drawing room and crowded into the re-
-eption room beyond. First came the
BRIDES sister, and Miss Una Ziinmer-
man, the sister of the bridegroom.
Their gowns were of cream colored
India silk, with chiffon berthes. They
carried bouquets of La France roses.
The groemSHan was Frank Henry. The
bride entered on the arRl of her father.
Her gown was a lovely creation in white
faile FraRcaiS. en- traine, with V shaped
plastiOn of point lace. She wore tulle
veil and carried White roses; 80 /.
The bridegroom and the best man,
Thomas Moiding. met the bridal party

itself an unusually pretty affair.
Mr.. Zimmerman'S presents to his

PEOPLE STILL BITE.
The Old Check Racket Worked tt

The Old Check Racket Worked to
Success.
The police are just now making active
search for smooth young man who has
been raking in a lot of soft money in
the last ten days. As far as reported
about $3.50 has been handed over to the
swindler by retail merchants. and the
probabilities are all the victims
have not been heard from. The
plan used to secure the coin
is an old one, but it seems to have
worked like a charm. The swlndler
wrote to P. I. Wagner, the Seven cor
ners grocer, note asking if he would
cash an Endorsed check for $50 and re-
turn money by bearer. The check was
drawn on the Merchants National bank
and signed e. B. Lamborn, as was the
letter. AS Mr.. Lamborn was customer
of the house, the request was complied
with and the messenger given the cash.
Yesterday the check came back and the
swindle was discovered. Two other
firms had the same trick played on
them, except that the names were
changed on the checks and notes, and
the amounts were for $50 each.

TO CORRESPONDENCE.

Anxious lnquirer-There is no simple
remedy for bow legs. The only course
fer you to pursue is to secure the serv-
ices of competent surgeon. Your de-
feet will make no particular difference
in your success in life, as long as you
do not have 10 wear tights. Don't worry
over il. but be so nice and loyable that
no one will think of it.
An Old Maid-YOu may DE right in
your opinion that the majority of mar
ried people are not fit to have tile care
Df children. but it would not be advisable
for you to state the matter in just that
way if you have the misfortune to have
10 live In the same house with any of
the people whose fitness for parental
honors YOU doubt. Paternal wisdo IN is
one of the things that most people eX-
pect TO come by inspiration.
Sweet Sixteenth Is not considered
good form for a young lady to put on the
hat of gentleman caller. There is an
old-fashioned forfeit that public Opin-
ion would support a man in exacting
from q pretty girl who should give him
such challenge. Better let the hat
alone unless you are prepared to pay
the penalty.
Susan Hive do not approve of kiss
ing games. They went out of date with
uCOpS, DIOdl-DIilnilicQ IldtS utu ulS-
away girls. Better allow the young peo-
pile to dance to the music of your piano,
while the mothers and fathers look on
and renew their youth. Young folks
must have amusement, of course, as you
say; but modern society has decided
that the oldfashioned games of forfeit
are vulgar.
Conscientious Mother-By all means
let your children read fairy stories.
Nothing else will cultivate that play of
fancy that often gilds common life into
positive beauty. like the old sweet allie
gories we call fairy stories. When youl
little daughters are grown up they will
find that the dear nursery stories are
full! of lessons that will come up day
after day to help them in all sorts OF
womanly ways. The Arabian Nights
especially are to be recommended fol
the perusal Of older children. They
may not understand all the story as they
read-but as some one says of the
catechism-they will grow into knowl
edge.
