A ROSY AFFAIR.

y. II
delightful party at their home on Cot
tage street, Wednesday evening, In
honor Of Mrs. Sam church Of Portland
now on visit to her parents. Th.
guests were mostly close friends of Mrs.
Church and all were glad to welcome
her back to her old home even for
short visit. Roses were everywhere
abundant throughout the house, and
each lady wore cOrsage bouquet OF
her choicest varieties. Drive whist as
of yore, then refreshments beralded by
q delicions pineapple sherbert and sup
plemented by anti-sleep cakes, plain
and fringed, berries, coffee and choco-
late with spanked cream, and Ice cream
served with cold-chisel and hammer
on the side. Three libelous carr catures
were passed around the company, one
showing Mr.. Gilbert ~ he looked when
his opponents won ''slam," one of
Pap Waite with his three-ply worlds
fair smile when he won his first prize,
and the other of Judge Murphy's re.
ception at the Mum club. Later in the
evening the Judge was overpowered
and made an honorary member of this
club.
During the excitement of this initia-
ton In which the candidate lost his
taffy, Mr.. Fleming was quietly making
way with the Ice cream, using a spoon
In Size little less than that of spade,
and Mrs. Sutherland was In the same
boat padding along with spoon In
each hand. DR.. Richardson promptly
took their temperature with all orna-
mental thermometer spatched from the
wall, ordered Mr.. Fleming's spoon re-
moved, and had them blanketed forth
with, which measures no doubt saved
tho cream. Mr.. Wagner entertained
q group with some choice Arabian
Knights selections, taken from the Bal
timore Life aud some original jokes
which he makes In the yard back of
his house on North Front street. An
acquaintance who has the run of the
house and always looking for some
thing new, took great pleasure Ia ex-
hibiting Mrs. Fleming's new East Lake
rose. No cuttings were disposed of but
they can be had by asking Mrs. Flem-
Ing about this new variety. Those
