Mrs. Kornegay's Reception.

! Mrs. Wade II. KUrnegay opened her
house yesterday-afternoo and even
ing-much to the pleasure and happi-
ness of large number of friends.
The house was tastefully decorated in
the rich hues which our woodlands
take on at this season and presented
very handsome appearance, which
lost nothing in its beauty by reason of
the happy faces and elaborate cos
tunes Of the ladies. AS the guests
arrived they were shown by Mrs. e.
N. Ratcliff to the parlor, where the
hostess received aud bade them well
come. In addition to Mrs. Ratclff,
Mrs. Kornegay had the assistance of
Miss Nettie Duncan, at the punch
bowl, and of Miss Clarence Ashbrook
and Miss Bobe Beatty, the two latter
serving the refreshments AS the
guests departed dainty blue bow
was pinned upon each-a "fayor.n
In the evening the younger set, and
some not so young either, were well
coined and whist was INDUCED. There
were five tables; Mrs. P. L. Soper se-
cured the prize, silver bonbon dish,
while DR.. Griffith distinguished him
self by scoring the least number of
times. The refreshments, served both |
afternoon and evening, were some
what out of the ordinary, and highly
by the guests.

The Gay Matinee Girl.

One of the clever new things, theat-
rical, OF the past season, was the ope-
ratio comedy called "The Gay Matin-
ee Grip which good natured ridicules
the matinee Girl" fad while yet, ,as
Edwin P. Hilton, its exploiter says, it
also treated the dear delightful Great
ure" most tenderly Interestingly,
musically and withal very funnily.
There seems plenty of opportunity to
build around such pleasing subject a
most entertaining comedy, which
many prominent critics declare has
been done. Mr.. Hilton has managed
some of the best Of our better known
spectaculars and dramas and he prom
ises that the entire production, come
dy, company, wardrobe, scenery, ETC.,
is wonderfully improved and will in
troduce those favorite comedians.
Monroe and Hart, as the stars, with
Americas best soubrette, Matte
Vickers as the matinee Grip and an
extra strong company of twenty-five
well known ladies and gentlemen in
their support. This latest and best OF
the great big successes will be seen at
the opera house Tuesday night next.

To Meet at Vinita.

AT the late grand lodge meeting OF
the Anti-Horsethief association, held
at Coffcyyille, Vinita was selected
for the next meeting, the second We'd
nesday, 1899. This territory is attach
ed to the Kansas Jurisdiction and the
meeting named will bring $50 or 400
delegates. Before that time, in fact
almost at once, it is proposed to insti-
tute branch of the organization here,
which should by all means be
done. Rev. Jamison, of Coody's
Bluff, is the organizer for
this section, and is discussing
the subject with some interested par
ties today. The possibilities of good
to the membership, and to the com
munity as well, are difficult to even
estimate. A timely example is the
Sheffield murder case which was
worked up by the membership and re-
suited in placing the calprits behind
the bars in less than week.

Eleven WOrkmen In the New WaterworIts
Tunnel at Cleveland, o., are Killed by
Explosions OF Gas.
Cleveland, July Zone of the most
terrible and fatal disasters in the his
tory of this city occurred last even
ing in the new tunnel being built from
the shore out into the lake for dis
tance of $500 feet. At little before
7 o'clock there was series of eXplo-
sions of gas, ten in number, and when
a rescuing party went out to the scene
of the disaster it was found that the
following worl1men had been killed:
John Parks, foreman, aged 32 years,
single.
James Parks, brother of John, aged
30, single.
Gus Waltz, aged 2S, married; father
of several children.
John Fradey, aged %, single.
Tony Brumetti, an Italian, aged %,
single.
Frank Clements, 81, married.
Frank Haney, 30 years old, married.
Emerson Smith, aged A, married
and. the father of large family.
John McCauley, 81, married.
Frank Lamba, aged %, single.
William Tucker, colored, aged 26,
single.
Only one man of the 12 in the tunnel
at the time escaped. He is Con O'Don-
nell and is able to give but poor
description of the affair, as he does
not know how he came to escape or
what caused the explosion.
Two of the rescuing party were al
most asphyxiated by gas, but were
carried out of the tunnel and recovered.
A few months ago six men were
killed in this tunnel by similar ex-
plosion.

MIR. Otis, Queer Flag.

Hiram Otis, veteran of the civil war,
who resides in West Philadelphia, has
a relic of great interest in the shape of
an odd American flag. Otis collected the
material for this flags construction
during the late war. A brave courier,
who did his share toward union victory
at the battle of Winchester, was a
close friend of Otis. The man was NOR
tally wounded and died on the field.
Otis secured part of his uniform, which
now forms the blue portion of the in
teresting flag. The white stripes and
stars are part Of flag of truce that was
carried by Otis himself, when. with two
comrades, he went to rebel encamp-
ment to arrange an exchange of pris-
oners. The flag was disregarded, and
the party was attacked by troop Of
guerrilas. OF the trio Otis alone es-
capped alive, and he was injured so seri-
ously that he was discharged from the
army. The red stripes are made of a
red undershirt which, it is claimed, was
once the property of Gen. Lee.-Phila-
delphia Record.
