A Brilliant Reception.

In spite of the disagreeable
weather, the reception held at
the handsome new residence of
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Guirkin,
on West Main Street on last
Friday evening, was unaui-
nously agreed to be the social
event of the season thus far, and
a grand success.
Notwithstanding the fact that
SOME little trouble was antici-
pated in accommodating the
large number expected to be
present. it would seem a thing
impossible not to find room for
one and all under such a hospit-
able roof Everybody seemed
to ENJOY themselves to the full
est extent, and it was voted a
pronounced success. In Connec-
ton with the already handsome
~ furnished interior, the rooms
were beautifully and deliberately
decorated with various ported
plants, palms, ferns and flowers,
which added greatly to the
beauty of the scene, which was
br,llian ly illuminated by many
electric lamps, whose delicate
rays shed a soft light upon a
more brilliant assemblage, es~
pecially of the fair sex, whose
heaming faces. sparkling eyes
and stylish attire, formed a pic
ture to dazzling to behold, a
picture that intoxicated the Wis
ion, and a picture that would
necessitate heavy draught on
the imagination to obtain the
least conception of its beauty.
Each one was worthy a place in
the gallery of the fair women of
the Southland
During the evening a very
enjoyable musical program was
rendered. Several vocal solos
were splendidly executed by
Miss Lula Briggs, Mr.. c. R.
Merrill, and Mesdames F. NJ.
Cook, l.. L. Winder anu L. c.
Guirkiu. There We're also sew
e1al instrumental selections by
the Misses. Melick and Martin.
and Mr.. Charles Guirkir. The
music was excellent. 1t is q
fwell known fact that Elizabeth
ICity contains some splendid mu
steal talent, and this fact wa:
amply verified upon this occa
sion. Sweet, touching airs, mel
odious and harmonious, that
seemed to penetrate the soul ane
inspire the senses, floated softl,
Through the house. Delicate
Iharmonies drifted here and there
dixie fine foam bells breaking
from a wave Of tune" causing
one to feel through every fibr'
the majesty of the loveliness o
this divine. art.
| Miss Isla Tyer added anothe
marked feature to the evening
enjoyment, by delighting he

recitation.

A Valuable Invention.

Mr.. G. W. Griffin, section foreman Of
the H. c. A. & N. railroad, at Nugent,
Grant parish, La, has fled his caveat on
an invention that will probably make
him an independent fortune. He calls it
"a frogless switch" and it is an invention
by which the ordinary railroad switch is
transacted without the use Of a frog, and
the switch made perfectly safe and Sc
cure. 1t is simple and direct in it's action,
and competent railroad men who have ex-
amined the invention say that it is cheap
or and better than the frog switch now
in use, and is bound to supercede 1t.

make regular slaughter of his stock of
goods now on hand. This is genuine
