TWO ANNIVERSARIES
DANISH BROTHERHOOD HOLDS ITS
NINTH ANNUAL BANQUET.
SOCIETY swEA CELEBRATES
After Seven Years the Society Shows a
Constant and Steady Growth-An
Evening of FeasUing and
Speaking.

The local chapter of the order of the
Danish Brotherhood celebrated the
ninth anniversary of the founding of
the chapter Saturday evening and the
annual celebration was one of the most
enjoyable events ever held among the
Danish population OF the city
The hall of the Brotherhood, in
which the celebration was held, was
beautifully decorated for the occasion,
the walls being deliberately hung with
American and Danish flags, and the
various emblems of the order. The
tables had all been set in the hall and
they looked very pretty in their white
coverings and all over them were placed
large punches of carnations. The
banquet was the feature of the cele-
bration and at the long tables covers
were laid for over one hundred guests
and every seat was filed. The banquet
was prepared by the wives of the
members and did ample justice to their
fame as cooks.
After the dinner was over the guests
pushed back their chairs and several
impromptu toasts we're given by mem
bers of the society. Vice President
Kirkberg presided and introduced the
speakers. Short addresses were made
by DR.. Jorgensen, Fl. Harbert and
Henry Feldshau. After the speeches
the floor was cleared and The rest of the
evening was spent in dancing. The
anniversary celebration was the most
successful ever held by the local lodge.
The history of the Brotherhood has
been one of constant and steady
growth. When organized nine years
ago it had but six members and today
it boasts of membership of over one
hundred of the best known members of
the Danish population of the city. The
aim of the order is purely beneficial
one and it has paid large amounts to
its members in sick benefits.
Society swea Celebrates.
The society Swea celebrated tn
seventh anniversary of its founding
with supper and dance at Central
Music Hall Saturday night, which
proved to be an enjoyable affair and
the large number of members showed
that the society is in an excellent con-
dition. The hall was decorated for the
occasion with the usual palms and
flowers and the flags of the society
we're beautifully draped around the
walls.
Supper was served early in the eve
ming. Over one hundred and fifty
guests and members sat around the
tables, which were Respondent in their
decorations of smilaX and flowers. The
occasion was made even more enjoyable
by the presence Of several people from
Chicago, Racine and Milwaukee.
After the banquet was over a program
was rendered. 1t consisted of short
addresses by President P. Pearson and
ex- President John Anderson. Mrs.
Egar entertained the company with a
number of beautiful piano solos and a
Swedish quartette completed the mu,
steal program. After the rendition of
the program an informal dance was
given which continued until early
morning. The music was furnished
by an orchestra from Chicago.

THE LAW WAS FAIRLY ADMIN
ISTERED

The Stanton Spectator takes a shot at
the verdict IN the Penrose Carter case
and expresses its surprise at the silence
of The Richmond Times. the champion OF
law and order"
The Times has not been silent. on two
occasions We commended Attorney-Gen-
eral Montague and Commonwealth At
torney Sands for the manly. vigorous
and courageous prosecution which they
were making in the case. assuring them
that IN taking this stand for law and
order and the protection OF human life
they had the support Of the great body Of
law abiding citizens in this Common
wealth. There were three trials Of this
case before n verdict was reached in the
last trial eight jurors came from the city
Of Stanton. and We have the assurance
Of the Spectator that the Stanton jurors
are honest men who could not render
any other than an honest verdict. The
same can also he said for the other MEM
bers Of the jury. They are, so far as we
know anything 10 the contrary, apr ght
citizens Of Virginia. and they were sworn
"a stand between the prisoner az the bar
and the Commonwealth and render a fair
and impartial verdict in accordance with
the law and the evidence, They sat pa
tienuy and heard the evidence. as well as
the argument Of counsel or both sides
and they had before them for their guild
q 1T af.I na
right judge. They gave the case their
closest attention and without hesitation
brought in a verdict Of mot guilty"
The Times Is very slow 10 impeach The
motive or 20 question the integrity OF
men IL good standing who are sworn 20
discharge a public duty. We did not hear
the evidence in this case, the members
Of the jury did, and We accept their ver-
Diet as the honest verdict OF honest men.
regardless Of any private opinion that We
may entertain. The Spectator iutImates
that Carter got on by some technicalty /
Of the law but II so the fact entirely (
escaped our notice. For these reasons we I
had no criticisms to make, and hence our T.
silence.
1t is quite true that The Times is
champion Of law and order but that does
not imply that we demand blood whenever .
q man Is on trial for a capital offence F
Our demand goes no further than this
that when there has been a violation OF
the law the person accused shall have
far and impartial trial, that the jury
shall hear the evidence and true verdict
give. When that has been done the law
has been indicated, the majesty Of the
law has been upheld, and we can ask no
more,
