are looked forward to with pleasant an
ticipations by the members of the club
and their many friends.
There was a large attendance at last
nights affair, and there was not dull
moment from the opening number to the
goodnight waltz, the strains of which
were waited through the rooms by Baker
Brothers Orchestra at O'Clock this morn
ing.
On the program there were % numbers,
and they had become thing of the past
altogether too soon to suit the participants.
The success of the affair was due In con-
siderable degree to the way in which every
detail was looked after by the committee,
which was composed of the following
named gentlemen:
General Manager, Ralph s. Potter; Floor
Director, William II. Slaney; Assistants,

The parlors of the Benedict House were
taken possession of Friday night by num-

was the guest of honor. The occasion was
complimentary banquet to the former
mayor, and the occasion proved to be very
enjoyable despite the fact that it was a
gathering which consisted of several of the
defeated candidates in the last election.
The ex-officlals seemed to enjoy the oc-
casion as well as though it was a banquet
in honor of their victory, and it was any
thing but a funereal occasion.
The affair was informal but none the
less enjoyable. The spread to which the
gentlemen sat down was one of Landlord

RURAL JOURNALISM.

what Suburban Correspon ents Of tho

Journalism in Arizona pales into insig-
nificance compared with the suburban
correspondence of the Westerly Tribune.
The following taken from the suburban
correspondence of the Westerly Tribune
are self explanatory:
The Sandy Hill correspondent writes:
''The funeral obsequies of the late de-
ceased Deacon Jones were held today and
were largely attended, many being unable
to gain admittance to the house. Much
| interest was manifested In the funeral to
| see Just how large Q crowd would turn out.
The attendance was hardly up to expecta-
| tions, due probably to the fact that the
! deceased was In hot fight for fence yiswer
Of the town ct the election several yeaxs
ago."
This contribution from the Laurel Glen
correspondent: "Miss Alice Rouse 10 homo
from Lafayette, where she caught tho
mumps. Alice was all right when she left
town."
From the Sandy Hollow correspondent:
"James Campbell has two pretty children,
a son and daughter. He Is going to make
teamster Of the son, as Jim is one him
SELF"
Says the Avondale correspondent: "A
letter just received from California says
the fields there are green, with roses and
geraniums in bloom, and the doors and
windows open. The oranges are turning
yellow very fast, the writer having two
tree in her back yard that are very full
thereof"
From the Voluntown correspondent:
"During the past week there have been
one murder, two rows, three fig hts, two
drunks and two woman squabbles in town,
But on Sunday all was quiet, and the VII
lage was in perfect harmony. 'Oh dear
me- one old woman says, what shall !
dol? Another lady says, Il want to know
Your 'Uuncle joe says let the good work
go on"
The Point Judith scribe has this item in
his batch: "The vital statistics OF Sand
Hill Cove for the month ending Dec. 81,
1895, is as follows: Muskrats, 10: minks, 1;
skunks, o; horses, l."
The following Is taken from the Perry
VILE department: "A large concourse OF
neighbors and others assembled at tho
home of George r. Healey, Saturday even

Dan Perry was among the dancers. Dan
is corker on the waxed surface"
