With this, we send to you, and to each

of deepest, heartfelt gratitude for your
tribute to papa's memory.

THE FIFTEENTH ANNIVERSARY
The John M. Dean Co. Celebrates a
Prosperous Year.

The house of John NJ. Dean g. Co. has
for many years celebrated the anniversary
of its organization by complimentary
banqnet. and last night the fifteenth re-
currence of that event was the occasion OF
perhaps the most notable gathering in the
history of the house. 1t had a twofold
significance rs the old firm ceased to exist
on December 81, and was succeeded Jan
uary lst, by the John NJ. Dean Co. com
posed of the members of the old firm:
Mr.. Dean and Mr.. Sawin. and three OF
their former employees, Mr.. X. Z. Dupouy,
Mr.. Frederick George and Mr.. Edward r.
Saul, whose fidelity and devotion 10 the
interests of the house, have been reward
ed by share in its management and
profits.
At about o'clock some seventy or
more of the employees and invited guests
sat down TO an elaborate banquet pro-
vided by Caterer Tillinghast, which was
spread on n table extending the entire
length of the great carpet hall in the an
mex recently added to the immense estab-
lishment. After due justice had been
done to the eatables cigars were lighted,
and toastmaster Eugene NJ. Sawin, after
few words relative To the gathering. and
the change in the title of the house, called
for remarks from the guests. The call
was responed 10 by John NJ Dean, John
A. Cowell, Charles Clemence, IL. Is.
Richmond of S. Sanford & Sons, James
Duckworth of Brooklyn, n. Y, the Hon.
Christopher Duckworth of Pawtucket,
Messrs. Dupouy, George and Saul, the
new members Of the house, and the repre-
sentatives of the News and the Telegram.
After listening TO some excellent music
an entertainment was given on stage
which had been erected at the lower end
of the hall, consisting of finished act by
Ames, the contortionist of the Gus Hill
company, a fine act by Miss Gertrude
Reynolds, the celebrated tennis and skirt
dancer of the Eden Musee, New York, and
well rendered songs by Dora Claxton, the
popular serio-comic singer supplemented
by artistic performances on the banjo,
guitar and ACCORDION by Messrs. B. +.
GRAHAM, A. w. Farnum and Al. +.
Baxter, who are well known in local
musical circles.
After the entertainment, which received
hearty applause, sports Of various kinds
were the order of the hour, and when the
party broke up in the wee sma' hours it
was the unanimous opinion of all present
that IL had been "A great time, and that
the house well deserved the success it had
achieved by its honorable and liberal
treatment of its customers and employees.

The State House Commission and
Notes of Interest.

Secretary Collins of the State Board Of
Agriculture, will go out next week for the
purpose of killing some cattle which are
now quarantined and examining others.
DR.. Burt has been called several times to
herds which are entirely free from tuber-
culosis, but the owners of which want n
free examination and free advertisement
and come i'm the Office with long faces TO
say that they are suspicious of some of
their cattle.
Some herds which have been thus eX-
amined have proved to be the most
healthy and best cared for which have
been seen, and Secretary Collins says he
is no match for this kind of farmers. ]"
Still there is some good in knowing that
the herds are free from tuberculosis.
Secretary of State Utter and his associ-
ates are very busy at present preparing the
docket of the general assembly, matter
which entails great deal of work just at
this season.
The State House Commission met yes
terday at the State House. The
most important business to be done was
said to be the appointing of the consult
ing architects, who will decide which of
the plans presented for the new State
House on Jan. ii shall be accepted. There
will probably be several of these, of whom
all but one will be from outside Rhode

Senator Gordon not long ago told a curl
Gus story which illustrates feature OF
his character which will come into play
during his Senatorial career. II is the
fact that Gordon never loses his head, and
that he can think under any circum-
stances. Said Gen. Gordon:
while lay there wounded on the field,
my mind went through curious process
OF reasoning. thought had been struck
by a cannon ball, and said to myself !:
