THEIR SIX ANNIVERSARY
MT. and Mrs. John Hugo of Edwards Street Celebrate the SIxtieth Anni- versory of Their Marriage.

MT. and Mrs. John Hugo of Edwards
 Street Celebrate the SIxtieth Ami.
 versary of Their Marriage.
 A very interesting event took place at
 the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Philip Hugo
 on Edwards street last evening, it being
 the sixtieth anniversary of the marriage of
 MT. Hugo's parents, MT. and Mrs. John
 Hugo. Eight sons, two daughters, forty
 grandchildren and sixteen great-grandchil-
 dren were present, the gathering numbering ing in all about 40. They were presented with beautiful basket of sixty roses by two great grandchildren, of St. Anne's Benevolent society, at mass, which was celebrated in the morning at St. Boniface church on George street, Rev. MT. Schaele pastor. MT. Richardson of the Yale Ma tional bank sent beautiful large bouquet.
 Mrs. M. Kaehrle, MT. and Mrs. John Chan dler and MT. and Mrs. Anton Tuslling also sent fine bouquets. MI. Christopher Hugo, their son, from Chelton, Wis. with his son and daughter, and MT. and Mrs. Joseph Hugo of New York were present. It was altogether most enjoyable occasion and WAS especially interesting from the rarity l of such an event.
 Mr. and Mrs. John Hugo are the parents of MT. Philip Hugo, who was formerly town clerk, and who Is one of the best and most favorably known of the German Americans of the city to day. MT. Hugo'e father is eighty three years of age and his wife is eighty years old; and they are as hale and hearty as a couple of sixty years. It ia surprising the way they have held l their youth, and they are in themselves a living lesson in the habits of frugality and | sturdiness. They enjoy the best of health, and there seems to be no reason why they
 should not celebrate their seventy fifth anniversary in 1908.
 The children had their supper in the afternoon and older folks devoted the even- | ing to eating and drinking and recalling
 old memories, with general good time.

She Was His Friend.
From the Detroit Tribune I


 The man with cluster of diamonds in his shirt was dazed.
 The room seemed to whirl about him. He was conscious of nothing save that the cold and naughty woman whom he adored had of her own free will fitted to his side and whispered in his ear:
 "Meet me slone," she had softly mur- mured, her sweet warm breath flaming his cheek, Gin the conservatory"
 A wild exhilaration thrilled him He walked on air.
 ''She loves me, she loves me-" was the thought that chased madly through his ex- cited brain.
 "Else why does she speak thus to meg' he argued with his faint doubts. As in dream he sought the conserva. tory. There she stood, divinely radiant rivaling in beauty the rose and in majesty the lily at her side. A smile illuminated her glorious counte nance.
 "My friend" Her voice was mellihuosly thrilling. "-I have 8 deep interest in you" He would have fallen on his knees bu for her sudden gestures of depreciation. q have asked you to come here," sh | proceeded kindiy, to tell you something which you ought to kuow."
 Speak" be cried, 'and confirm 10. happiness or seal my doom 7"
 Shs sighed gently. | "Yes, my friend"
 A look of profound pity invested he l features.
 sI will tell you. Your collar buttol shows above your necktIe"
 He managed to find words to thank he before she fitted back to the ball room

Tanning a Sbrew.

A writer on "Garden Pets" in the Lon
 don Spectator has many interesting things
 to tell. It is not often, he ssys, that the
 smaller quadrupeds which inhabit Eng
 lish gardens can be tanned, either as in-
 door pets or visitors. The squirrel is, of
 course, an exception-perhaps because, of
 all British quadrupsds, 1t is the only CT ca
 ture which is not wholly or mainly noe,
 turnal in Its habits. But Mrs. Brghtwen
 has tanned such shy and unusual pets as
 the shrew, the woodmouse and the bat.
 Her insight into the condition of animal food, shelter and toilet has made 1t possi-
 ble to maintain these delicate creatures in
 it's thsp, in the case of the shrew, has yet
 been known. The shrew was kept in 8 glass globe, which is stated to be- "quite the best kind of receptacle for small TO- dents, far better than any wire cage, ss they cannot climb or lsap out, and do not injure their noses by necessarily pressing against the bsrs." Dry earth was put in as fountain. a night-light glass to hold water, a handful of dry grass and some cotton wool. The shrew's first business Whb JO mhhc d ueht. Ouo lnDOIou luIlOuS- ly, as if the work must be done in @ given time. She took mouthfuls of the dried
 grass, and. weaving 1t together with the cotton wool, formed dome shaped nest,
 with three openings-one for ingress, one for egress, and one leading to her water supply. Then she constructed little GOV cred ways in and out from the rest of the bedding materials, and by the second day
 her bedding was all in order. These GOV cred ways may be seen in any hay field whom the grass is cut; but we always i'm agined them to be the work of feld-yoles. The habits of this shrew go to prove that these little creatures are the most useful scavengers of the fields. She would bury a sparrow, scooping out the earth beneath it, after the manner of buryiug beetles. and covering it over with grass. A dead mouse would barely supply food for twen- ty-four hours, and earthworms, blue bot tie flies, meal worms and siugs are all de- | voured. Want of food to Ratisfy this vo-

AN EVENING OF SONG

At Davenport Church This Evening. At the Davenport church this evening the Silver Lake qusrtette will give one of it's rare musical entertainments in aid of the parsonage fund. No one who enjoys fine singing can afford to stay away. The tickets for the concert are selling rapidly, and packed house seems insured. Those who desire tickets can get them at the store of Charles E. Hart, of members of the church, at Loomis' music store, and ct the door.
 The West Virginia Freeman says of their singing: 'It is not simply music-it Is superb music. The execution is perfect, the sentiment educating in every sense, the dramatic effect above criticism"
 The remarks of Rev. 0. H. Mead, the leader of the quartette, which are inter lsrded between the numbers, keep the audience in state of constant good humor, while they convey advice of sage and serious character.
 "The Old Piano,"a solo by Professor Chambers, is to be given as 8 part of the program, and never falls to "take."
