THE ELKs ENTERTAINED.

On Friday night the members of
the Elk lodge, of this city, gave
their regular monthly reception to
their lady friends. The night was
bad one TO get out but the livery
stables we're drawn on tor carriages
and a goodly number assembled, in.
clement as the night proved to be.
Mr.. ]. Shelton Ragland was elec.
ted master of ceremonies, and he
contributed much amusement in
his drollery, and while he was max
ing fun for other people to laugh at
he saw that every one had a splen-
did time.
1t was announced that the tables
would be set out for euchre and
those who desired to play could do
so while others could chat, play bill
lizards, pool or repair to the reading
room and enjoy themselves looking
over the late papers or magazines
on the table.
After An hour at the card tables,
it was announced that a recess of
ten minutes would be taken during
which time a suitable recognition
would be conferred upon the men,
Der making the best score on cards.
1t had been fixed before hand TO
recognize R. A. Munson as the win
uer and ride him on the goat
about the hall, but Munson had
gotten wind of the job and left the
hall by the back stairs. He was
looked for industriously, but could
not be found.
Mr.. e. A. Hays was then called
upon to pick out a victim unbe-
knowing to any of the members and
announce it to those present and
the victim would be seized, bound
and gagged and placed astride of
| Sir William Goats back and made
to ride whether or not.
Mr.. Hays took the stand and
said: "Ladies aud gentlemen, it
gives me peculiar pleasure to an
nounce that Postmaster B. M.Fore-
imam, has captured the honor of the
evening and we will now proceed to
give him a ride on the goat In rec
ognition of his good luck at the
card table.
The postmaster made a dash
toward the door but he was caught
and carried to the goat room, and
soon appeared with dozen Elks on
the side and in the rear who saw
that he had a tumultuous ride
about the hall.
After this the goat was led back
to his stall, fed on tomato cans, old
shoes, horse collars and few inch
es of barbed wire, that he might be
in trim at the next meeting of the
Elks.
Supper was announced after this
and an hour was spent at the tables.
When this was over the orchestra,
which had furnished music during
the evening, played the grand
march and the dance was on for an
other hour.
The entertainment was brought
to close at II O'Clock and each one
present expressed to Master of
Ceremonies Ragland that they had
spent a delightful evening,
