 Perhaps the wealthier people intend to drop their check for a goodly sum into the clubs treasury after the fairs excitement is concluded. All the booths were cleared from the floor last night with the excep- tiol of few. that were out of the way, and almost the entire hall was a happy sight throughout the night as the beautiful ladies and their part ners of the masculine sex cayorted about in glee in their merry efforts to conquer the greatest pleasures of the terpsichorean art.
 At about 10:50 the board of judges consisting of Messrs. Graf. Elliott. Dcnahue, Moore and Brooks, called the attention of every one present to the fact that the great event of the season was about to take place.

 The contest for popular school teacher was soon decided and one pretty little miss who had worked hard to score a victory for Miss Ri ley, was a happy girl indeed when she approached the flower booth. after the result was announced. with her face illuminated with the happy sign of triumph. The vote resulted as given below:

Fir.t silver wedding.

According 10 historian, this Is the
way the first silver wedding came
about. 1t was in the time OF Hughes
Caput. Two OF his most faithful serv-
ants. a man and woman, had grown
gray in his employ. How could he re-
ward them?
Calling the woman, be said: your
service is great. greater than the mans,
whose service is great enough. for the
woman always finds work harder than
n man, and therefore | will give you a
reward. At your age know of none
better than a dowry and husband.
The dowry is here. This farm from
this time forth belongs 10 you. II THIS
man who has worked with you for five
and twenty years is willing to marry
you. then the husband is ready.
"Your majesty" said the old peasant
chow Is II possible that we should mar
ry, having already silver hairsE
"Then 1t shall be silver wedding
And the king gave the couple silver
enough to keep them in plenty.
Such was the origin Of the silYe'
wedding. custom which. spreading al
through France, subsequently became
known to the world.

Points on n Lobster.

A lobster Is found in the water. but
not always-in fact, some of the most
successful Holsters that ever lobstered
were born and raised on dry land.
One can usually tell lobster by It's
actions. For Instance. If a young man
enters crowded drawing room ana
walks all over the feet of the assem-
bled guests without their consent or
approval the young man at once be-
comes lobster.
The fathers Of Holsters usually have
money. In fact. it is difficult to be q
