A very pretty and enjoyable party
was held at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Mines at Espy, on Monday
evening, the occasion being in honor
of their daughter, Miss Elizabeth, of
Scranton, who is at home during her
vacation. The evening was spent in
an unusually pleasant manner, owing
to the untiring efforts of Miss Sydney
and hostess Miss Elizabeth Mines,
whose only objects seem to be to pro-
vide entertainment for their guests.
Miss Elizabeth is very popular among
her Espy friends, and her frequent
visits to her home, are always oc-
casions of a hearty welcome on the part
of all who know her. Those present
were Misses Jennie Griffith, Eliza
beth Bomboy, Della Geisinger, Fannie.
Kline, Mary Mines, Josephine Nc
Collum, Martha Robson, Bessie Robi-
son, Lillian Petit, Cora Hartman,
and Messrs. Harry Straub, Geo. Straub,

A minister in a neighboring town
few Sundays ago surprised his au-
dience by reading the following an
nouncement from the pulpit "The
regular session of the donkey club
will be held as usual at the close of
the service. Members will line up
just outside the church door, make
remarks and stare at the ladies who
pass, as is their custom. Any mem
Der known to escort lady to church
and sit with her like gentleman
will be expelled from membership"
The application was to the point
and the effect was marvellous.

late Hon. L. B. Rupert, departed this
life at her home on the corner OF
Centre and Third Streets Thursday
morning of last week. Though she
had reached the advanced age of
elghty-seven years, her health had
been good, and her death was unex-
pected. 1t appears that she had gone
up stairs to prepare to attend family
reunion, which was to be held that
day. Remaining up stairs longer than
was usual her daughter Eva who lived
with her went mp to ascertain the
cause. She found her mother lying
on the floor suffering from a stroke of
appoplexy. Medical aid was hastily
summoned, but she did not recover
and died few hours afterward.
The deceased was the oldest sur
viving member of the family, and is
survived by five children, Mrs. DR.. w.
H. Park of Wisconsin, Mrs. Daniel
Steck of Hughesville, Mrs. l. K.
Miller, this town, Miss Eva, who lived
with her mother; and one son Barton,
living in Kansas. The funeral conduct
ed by Rev. G. H. Hemingway of the
Presbyterian Church, took place from
the house Monday afternoon, burial in
Rosemont Cemetery.

reaching Philadelphia, the accom-
panying physician suggested that
he be taken to the above mentioned
hospital, but his recovery was i'm
possible and he died at twelve
o'clock Sunday night.
The remains were brought to
Bloomsbury and taken to the home
of his daughter.
The funeral took place yesterday
