The Friday Night Club Holds Its Last
Meeting
An event long to be remembered In

sion OF the season OF this popular
married folks club, and was a brill
liant success from start to finish. The
ladies had Hughes hall elabOrtely
decorated in evergreen and bunting
and about fifty couples enjoyed the
dance as never before. The ladies ap-
peared in evening dress, and the af-
fair was most brilliant in every re.
spect.
Constant surprises were In store for
the sterner sex, first by variety Of
favors for the "cOtillions," and as a
finale, an elegant luncheon at Geo. +.
Smit his restaurant. One OF the IA
yors consisted OF torpedOs, which with
a slight pull exploded aud revealed a
tissue paper cup, affording much
amusement and leading a fantastic
touch TO the event.
During the last course OF the lunch
con, Ex-Mayor Claude Catch as toast
master drank the health Of the ladies
In which all the gentlemen arose and
participated. This was followed by
most appropriate after toasts by a
number OF the gentlemen as we'll as
the ladies. The greatest mer
riment prevailed throughout the eve
ming, aud all went 10 their homes

OF their hearts for the delightful clos

which leads from the dining room into

newspaper under it, and pouring the
oil through on the paper. The oil
thus saturated the carpet in the din

the bottom of the door and the floor
near by, was badly burned and

nothing further was injured or de.
