MARGARET .M'CARTY.

As the old year drew near its close
there passed away one who nearly
reached the allotted period of life,
and who was we'll known in the
community
Margaret McCarty died at her
home in Montague, Dec 81, of para
lysis, from which disease she had
been for several years a sufferer.
The first stroke left her in nearly
helpless condition and her hea tn
has been gradually declining ever
since. The day before Christmas
she was stricken for the third time
and from which she did rot rally.
She was born in Dingman township
this county, May II, 1928, and was
a daughter of Philip and Rachel Van
Etten McCarty. Both her parents
were descended from the oldest
families in this section. Her father
was born and resided until his death
on farm on which his grandfather
was living in 1880 at the time of the
battle of the Conashaugh, and her
mother was the granddaughter of
Captain johannes Van Etten who
commanded in that fight with the
Indians. The greater portion of her
life was spent in this county with
her parents until some twenty five
years ago she removed to Montague
where she has since resided. Forty
two years ago she united with the
Presbyterian Church of Milford and
in quiet, unostentatious manner
has remained a consistent member.
She issurvived by one son, George
w, who resided with her
The funeral services were held at
her late home on Tuesday, con.

Christian Endssvor Social.

The Christian Endeavor society
held a very pleasant social in the
church Thursday night before New
Years. The idea was that each one
should be dressed to represent an
advertisement, and the one guessing
the greatest number correctly would
receive a prize. Many novel de-
signs were presented and some were
puzzlers. The prize a toothsome
cake was won by Miss Bessie Van
Etten and Howard Reed.

An Enjoyable Affair.

One of the most pleasant events
of the season was New Years Din
ner at the home of John j. Van
Sickle. The company were all con-
genial spirits, and thoroughly en-
joyed the generous hospitality and
abundant provision made for them
by their host and hostess. The
table was artistically decorated, and
of all the good things of which man
should partake, none were wanting
thereon. No not even the wine. As
the hostess happily remarked tive
We're all near very near to each
other" and in this fact (taken in
both its literal and social sense) lies
the principal reason that these
gatherings are so highly appreciated
by the participants and why they
linger long in memory and serve in
marking time by which to locate
lesser events. All appreciated the
kindly spirit shown in entertaining
and which was accompanied in
every case by substantial tokens ap-
propriate to the New Year not alone
to their guests but to many other
homes besides. Such events tend
to smooth the kinks out of life,
brush away wrinkles and restore
ones confidence that the milk of
human kindness is fully as sweet
now as it was a hundred or a thou.

SOCIETY EVENTS.
The Holidays Were Remarkably Gay in
Milford.

Milford.
On Christmas night Miss Bertha
Kleinhans gave a dance in honor OF
her guests Mr.. and Mrs. Lawson, of
Virginia. The evening was much
enjoyed by large number of the
young people of Milford
One of the most enjoyable affairs
of the holiday season was the gath
ering at "The Anchorage, on New
Years eve. Owing to the gallantry
of the gentlemen, the ladies were
taken there in sleigh thus opening
the evening with a short but delight
full sleighride. The cozy rooms of
the house were prettily decorated
with evergreen, holly and mistletoe.
The prizes in progressive spelling
match were won by David Chaplin
and Miss Lila Van Etten, while in
the contest of pinning the tail on
donkey the prizes were award :

Linda Klaer. During the evening
elaborate refreshments were served.
DR.. Reed assured us that the next
house warming would be in the
new house which he anticipates
building as soon as the weather will
permit.
A number of people were puzzled
upon receiving invitations worded
in this way:
"Accept our New Years Greet

three to five." Miss Kleinhans-
Miss Nichols, Miss Williamson,
Miss Decker, Misses Mott, Misses
Reed, Miss Baker, Misses Van Etten

The puzzling feature was this
word Libesjo." One gentleman
remarked =" English, 1 knew it
was not; French, it did not look
like German, 1t could not be for

my dictionary did not contain it. :"
For the benefit of this gentleman as
we'll as others, I will give an ex
PLANTATION After an old English
custom, Mrs. Van Etten named her
home after the members of her fam
lily, the names of which contracted
spell ''Libesjo." "
About fifty of the friends of the
young ladies called durins the after
noon. In the decorations the
prevailing color was a rich red and
in the soft light given by a number
of candles and lamps the rooms
looked especially pretty. Miss Reed
and Miss Williamson served, as
sisted by Miss De ker and Miss Mott
while Miss Baker, Miss Van Etten,
Miss Elsie Mott, Miss Corinne Reed,
Miss Kleinhans and Miss Nichols re.
ceived. The young ladies were
dressed in old fashioned gowns, no
ticeable among which was broc-
AIDED yellow satin beautifully trim

white satin gown with an exquisite

HARRISBURG LETTER.
Compendium of Important
News of the Past Week.

Our Special Correspondent at Harrisburg
Writes on Matters of vital Impor-
tance to Every Citizen Of the Key
stone state.
HARRISBURG, Jan. 3, 1898.
Since the convict labor law OF
June 1S, 1897, went into effect At
torney General Mccormick has re-
ceived many requests for informa-
ton, among the number being one
from the managers of the Hunting
don reformatory, who desired to
know what percentage of inmates
may be employed and if the per-
centage in any class precludes en-
ployment in the other classe if the
Reformatory can use machinery in
the manufacture of articles to be
used exclusively in the institution
and if the use of machinery in
manufacturing goods is prohibited
in the ReformatOry. In reply the
Attorney General in a lengthy opin-
ion said that the act applies to the
institution in question, and that if
the managers desired to employ five
per cent of the inmates in manu-
featuring broOms, brushes and hol-
low ware, they dare not employ
others in the manufacture of other
goods, but if they decided to EN-
ploy less than the number stated in
the manufacture of brooms, brushes
and hollow ware they have the op-
tiOn of employing not more than 10
per centum in the manufacture of
any other kind of goods, wares, arti-
cles or things thatare manufactured
elsewhere in the state. except that
in case manufacture of mats and
mating is decided upon then 20
per centum of the whole number of
inmates may be employed in such
manufacture. The manufacture of
goods to be used exclusively within
the Reformatory for the mainten-
ance of its inmates is permitted.
The labor organizations of the state
are jubiiant over this decision and
claim that as a result their members
will secure more work and better
wages.

STATE PRINTERS BILL CUT.

Some time ago Superintendent of
Public Printing Robinson objected
TO bill of State Printer Rel's and
the matter was referred to Deputy
Attorney General Reeder. After
revising all the accounts referring
to contracts, bonds, etc., General
Reeder decided that Mr. Rea made
charges on certain work that was
not in conformity with the contract
and upheld Supt. Robinson in re-
ducing the charges. On the other
hand he claims that Mr.. Robinson
erred in certain matters and al
lowed the charges on those to remain
as assessed. The total amount dis
allowed in the account was nearly
$4,000, one item alone having been
cut from 81, 200 TO S740.
