Misses Matte MAJ Davis and Lila
Hood and Master Tom Davis entel-
tanned about fifty OF their young
friends at the pleasant countiy home
of Mr.. and Mrs. L. J. Davis, south of

In compliance with request of the
invitation, each guest brought, done
up in white package, his pet horror, .
the girls tying with blue ribbon and
the boys with red, which were received
at the door and numbered in pairs.
Later in the evening the drawing
and opening of the horrors created
much mirth and excitement. The
standing collar and the inanimate plow
Of the lazy boy bringing forth as much
lung explosion as the proverbial mouse
and the composed toad frog.
The grasshopper took advantage Of
the small opening his captor made to
try emotions of the lassies, and flew to
the ceiling, producing regular
stampede.
Hammocks and rustic seats on the
lawn tempted the young Romeos and
Juliets TO the secluded retreats and in
the mellow light of Japanese lanterns
and waning moon they told again
the "old. old story."
Tho frnut r.i.,vy., x,.c ...:.f
soft lights. palms and flowers, and here.
from beautiful ice frappe bowl, in
which were frozen tropical fruits and
luXuriant roses, Miss Mable Davis
charmingly dispensed the refreshing
drink.

features OF the evening.

games. romping, war and neighborhOod
talk. base ball and dancing were the
| features Of the dav. which were enjoved
to the fullest extent. and when nieht
fell the crowd were 10th to depart for

miracle Of the loaves and fishes was
nothing in comparison with it. After

manned wagon loads instead of baskets.
These gatherings are the best means of
bringing the people together. and there

done in that line. Their efforts are
praised bv all. Quite number of per-

Some Good Suggestions.

"E. g." in last evenings News writes a
very sensible letter, which closes as fol-
lows:
Now about sending away for goods:
The man who built Gen. Clarke's house
mad to send to Reno for locks for the
house. He said he went in every store
and could get only four locks of one
KIND. Now, gentlemen grocers, look into
Ihls ana II you want to build up your
town., give other people a chance. and I
thlnk you will gain by it and again gen.
temen, you deliver, monthly, barrels
after barrel of bottled beer in the differ
ent parts of town which would keep an
establishment of this kind RUNNING nros-
perously in our midst, or perhaps our
saloons would derive a revenue from this
as you wish them to buy your groceries
and, by the way, some of our saloon men
are sending thousands of dollars yearly
TO San Francisco, Sacramento and Mil
waukee for key beer when YOU have a
hrst class establishment of that kind
home. Look into it, saloon men of Car
son. Men spend their none with Won
and what you send to other places for
keg beer never comes back. Now GOOD
people, p%atronize home talent. home
trade, home industry, and Nevadans for
Nevada, and you may nave a State after
a while that you may be proud of.

Small POX,

1t is reported that small pox in it's
wild form exists In several parts of the
county. In the O'Neall section the
Lutheran Conference has been called
in in consequence of it. There were
several cases in the neighborhood of
Pomaria. g..
We saw q letter to DR.. J. M. Kibler
from q physician ut Chappells stating
that there was an eruptive disease pre-
va]ent in that section but OF very
mild type scarcely stopping the patient
from work. Every man, woman and
child In the county should be vaccinat-
ed and that without fr"ther delay.
At present there is not case of
small pox in the town of Newbcrry.
There have only been three cases here
and they were promptly sent to the
pest house and yet not many over half
our people have been vaccinated.
