Miss Wingar, Friday evening, at her home, entertained the people of the Congregational church in honor of the Intermediate Sunday school class, the class which. for a number of years, she herself has taught. Each invited guest was requested to appear as represent ing some geographical name, which was done, with considerable shrewi- ness. as follows: Miss Hough, Paris; Miss Archibald, Canton; Miss Listen- barger, Hayti; Miss Chapman, Cape Sable; Miss Ridenour, Cape Verde Miss Hartsfield. Cape Horn Miss Crocker. Tripoli; Miss Ozanne, Nile Delta; MT. Ozanne, Brussels; MT. Root, Deadwood; Mir. Ruse, Globe; MT. Glen Root, Belfast; Mir. Empy. Frankfort; MT. Archibald. Hankow. Messrs. Chase Griffin and Drew were present, but represented nothing. After the as sembled guests had succeeded in guess ing the geographical names of their companions another geographical study was in order. A table on which were placed twenty articles representing twenty geographical names, was placed in the midst of the guests. cards were passed and each one named the repre- sentation of as many articles as he or she could. Miss Chapman was the most successful and received a handsome prize. Miss Hough next favored the jolly crowd with a pretty instrumental solo, which was received with pleasure and applause. The music by Miss Hough was followed by a beautiful reading. entitled "The Play of Life" Her rendition, as usual. was rarely fine. and was one of the most pleasing fea- lures of the evening. The finale was the invitation to and participation in a table of delicate dainties, which were prepared during the day by Miss Win gar. Mir. Archabald presided at the table as toast-master. and many witty toasts were made. Miss Wingar proved a perfect hostess. She left nothing un- done that would aid in making the evening interesting. The guests pro nounced themselves as having enjoyed a most delightful evening.
 Miss Bessie Hough left Saturday for Prescott. where she will spend several weeks before going to Jerome, where she will visit friends for several weeks more.
 There is a continued complaint made by the people in this valley this year about the scarcity of fruit. What lit tie there is on the market is poor and very high in price. Here the home of the grape, grapes retail at 10 cents per pound. The crop of grapes will last but a short time. There are scarcely any early peaches and as yet none whatever have found their way to the Tempe market. The late crop of beach, es is quite heavy but if the earnestly prayed for rain does not soon come they will be absolutely unmarketable. There are few varieties of plums and prunes sent in from the coast that Ie- tail at 15 to 9 cents per pound. The watermelons are, however, holding out well, and Tempe is stocked with a half dozen wagons every morning. Some of the melons are quite large and of good flavor. Most of these melons, however. are grown along the sandy beds of the river
 Leonard Nets leaves this morning with loaded wagons of butter. cheese, eggs and other produce for Globe.
