Southern Plantation Supper.

The guard of Beach Council, No. 1877,
Jr. o. u. A. NJ, held a very successful
plantation supper and entertainment in
the Wildwood borough hall last Satur-
day evening. The weather during the
day was not at all favorable to the pro-
Ject, it raining steadily most all day.
About dusk the atmosphere partly
cleared and grew colder, only to rain
again about nine o'clock in the evening,
which was followed by a light fall of
hail and snow. Despite this tickle
weather a big crowd was present at
both supper and entertainment, from
which S35 were realized. The supper
was most eXcellently cooked and rel
ished by all. The following was the
MENU.
Alabama
Chicken Pot Pie
Old Kentucky
Cranberry Sauce
Potatoes or Irish Spuds, first imported in
Virginia by Sir Walter Raleigh
Cabbage Cold Slaw
A la German
Coffee from Jaws
Ice Cream and Cake
After the supper the entertainment
part of the program was as follows:
Piano solo, Miss Edna Barnett; vocal
solo, Miss Rosalie Washburn; cornet
solo, F. d. Schell; vocal solo, Miss
Helen Marts; plantation talk, Hiram
Cheatwood; quartet, Kilmer Bros. and
Randolph Harrison; vocal solo, Miss
Florence Kirkbride; vocal duet, Misses
May and Bertha Ipgersoll; piano solo,
Miss Reba Bowers; vocal solo, Miss
Delta M. Brown. The cruller appetite
contest was an amusing affair. Cotton
bolls from the sunny south were dis
tributed at the close of the entertain
ment. The committee in charge of the
affair wish to thank their many friends
who assisted.

THE OLD LINCOLN FARM.
It VIII Be Sold in Few Days For De.
iinquent Taxes.

Evansville. Ind.. March 15.-The old
Lincoln farm in the heart OF Lincoln
City. Spencer county. will in a few
days be sold for delinquent taxes. For
years the taxes on the farm have not
been paid and the county officials de-
clded the best thing TO do was to offer
the farm for sale. Attempts have
heretofore been made TO turn the farm
into a park and ask congress to make
an appropriation for this purpose and
this may be done after the farm
passes into other hands.
The old cottage that stood on the
farm and in which Abraham Lincoln
lived was removed to New York many
years ago and was sold for several
thousand dollars. me commissioners
Of Spencer county have received many
letters from people over the country
wanting to buy the farm and bidders
will doubtless be numerous when the
tax sale is held. The mother of Lin
coin is buried on the farm. The burial
lot is kept in good condition by the
commissioners. The county received
a deed for the lot several years ago.
The late Gov Mount. of this state.
was an advocate OF turning the farm
into a park. and brought the matter
to the attention of the legislature. but
nothing was done.

IN many years and railroad traffic Is
practically paralyzed. The Northern
Pacific and Great Northern have not

abandoned all efforts to do SO until
the fury OF the storm abates. The high
wind has piled the snow in mountain.

train has arrived in ST. Paul since Fri.

days. The Northern Pacific reports
its westbound coast train which left

blocked. II will start coast bound

through. The eastbound train due

cry effort is being made by the road to
keep it's passengers. who are snow
bound. warm and we'll fed. and for
this reason trains are being held at
stations, where the accommodations
are good, rather than attempt to get
them through with a possibility OF be-
ing tied up between stations.
The Red River Valley division OF
the Northern Pacific between Frank
fort and Winnipeg is entirely aban-
doned. No trains have attempted to
run since Friday night ana the exact
condition on these divisions are not
known by the general officers here. as
the telegraph wires have been carried
down by the burden of sleet. which
preceded the heavy snowfall.
The situation on the Great Northern
is equally bad. The line is tied up en-.
tirely between Grand Forks and VIII.
liston, y. D., a distance of about So
miles. and all wires have been lost be-
yond Fargo. Thirty miles OF wire are
gone between Fargo and Cassellton. N.

been lost. So fierce has been the
storm that II has been deemed mad
visable TO attempt to reopen the road
until 1t abates. Reports received at
the general Offices indicate that the
gale has somewhat subsidized. but that
the snow still continues to fall.
the branch of the Great Northern
running to Winnipeg is also tied up.
No trains have been started north.
bound since Friday night. and those
that were caught out on the road by
the storm have been held at the sta
ton near the border
Winnipeg is reported entirely cut
off from railroad communication with
the outside world. The Canadian Pa.

bound somewhere west of there and
