Miss Margaret Coughlan of 1912
Cook avenue will be married Nov. 90
to Mr.. Thomas Edmondson of Van
Buren, Ark. This announcement will
be surprise to the young lady S friends,
very few of whom are aware of the en-
gagement. The wedding will be the
natural sequence of pretty romance.
Miss Coughlan spent few weeks last
summer at Eureka Springs, Ark While
there she met Mr.. Edmondson. They
interested each other and when Miss
Coughlan returned to her home in this
city parted with the consciousness that
each had acquired good friend At
that time it was only friendship. But
when, soon afterward, both were be.
reaved by the death of near relative,
Mr.. Edmondson losing his mother and
Miss Coughlan brother, the feeling of
sympathy between them grew to some
thing more tender, and the betrothal fol-
lowed. Miss Coughlan resides with her
parents, two sisters and brother. She
is admired by all who claim her ac-
quaintance, particularly because of her
sweet disposition. She is an accom-
plished pianist, which adds to her pop
ularity. Mr.. Edmondson is success
full merchant of Van Buren,, and is con-
sidered very substantial young man.

SURPRISE AT GRAFTON.
Rev. Geo, L. Hlbbard Presented a French
Clock.

| After over a weeks careful planning
and consideration, the members of the
First Baptist Church sprung total sur
prise on their pastor, Rev. George L.
Hibbard, in the church parlors at 7.30
o'clock, Saturday evening. The party
was arranged under adverse circum-
| stances, juvenile representative Of a
one-cent daily having advertised the af-
| fair twice during the three days preced-
| ing the occasion, and on this account it
| was IN reality double surprise, the
promoters being as much surprised at
their success as was the pastor, when
| he was told that his presence was very
| much desired at Church social" At
the beginning, the surprise took the
form of am initial party, and for over
half an hour the large number present
scratched their heads in search of the
names of noted generals, celebrated di-
vines, living and dead, poets, authors of
various degrees of celebrity, and of pro-
minent men from Adam to Mckinley,
which might correctly follow the list
of twenty-five sets of initials. This done,
the following musical and literary pro-
gram was rendered: Piano solo, Emma
Jane Goddard; vocal duet Mrs. AXtell
and Miss E; f. Chapin; an original
speech on Time Miss Lillian Goddard;
song, by three little girls; vocal solo,
Miss Stella Chaplin. A BEAUTIFULLY orna-
mented French clock was then present.
ed to the victim of the surprise, Cyrus
r. Axtell acting as spokesman, to which
the surprised clergyman fttingly and
interestingly responded. Miss Ethel
Wood then rendered one Of her excel
lent auto-harp solos, after which an ori-
ginal poem touching on q diversity of
subjects, by Q. R. and S. q. Axtell, was
read by Mr.. Cyrus Axtell. The result OF
the initial contest was then announced,
together with a nirth- provoking list of
incorrect answers. Miss Emma Jane
Goddard and Miss Matte Aldrlch re-
ceived even honors for the highest num-
ber Of correct answers, each having COR
.rectly guessed nineteen Of the twenty
five names. Good night" a trio, by
the Chaplin sisters, closed the musical and
literary part of the entertainment,
which was followed by refreshments
and a social good time until late hour.
