The banquet given by Social Lodge

the Opera hall last Friday evening, was
one of the finest banquets ever given in
this place. Previous to the banquet
proper, the guests assembled in the
lodge room, where Rev Mozes Breeze, in
one of those nice impromptu talks, well
coined the guests in behalf of his brother
masons; after which a very interesting
vocal and instrumental program was
rendered.
Grant Taylor, who a few years ago
worked in the barber shop here for
Henry Reels, and who has since gained
considerable notoriety as Splinter, has
received most tempting offer to go to
England and show his skill. Prizes to
amount of S25,O0O have been hung up in
England this fall in different running
events. James Collins, a we'll known
Wisconsin runner, is now in England and
he writes Taylor that if he can make $50
yards in 10 seconds he had better take
the first boat for Johnny Bulls land.
Taylor expects to 60.
