(COntinued from HlfSt paSe.) concluded with a section calling for the sine die adjournment of the convention The presiding officer declared the reso- lution out of order and the little towns applauded The sponsor of the meas ure of adjournment finding himself baked temporarily by the president persisted and in din and regardless of the gavel's raps read his resolution through to the bitter end. The little towns snuffed the thing out by the usual overwhelming vote as soon as things became quiet enough to permit a vote
 The convention was called to order by President Andrews at Il a. m. The prayer of the chaplain had hardly been uttered before MT. Davenport of Bridgeport sent to the desk of the clerk a resolution. It was a measure of many whereases; it's Therefore be it Resolved" was for sine die adjourn ment
 The opening sentences of the resolu- tion were so pointed as to disclose lnl- mediately the spirit of it. Promptly Judge Andrews stopped the clerk in his reading, and with a rap of the gaVel de- clared the resolution out of order, add ing, amid applause from the little town delegates; Anything that is an insult to this convention must be out Of order here"
 MT. Davenport jumped to his feet and demanded: How is the resolution out of order before it is read?'
 MT. Smith, of Plymouth, character ized the resolution as unworthy ot the gentleman" The utterances or thai resolution" he said, ''are falsehoods' MT. Davenport, with much coolness' arose and announced that he would read the resolution and he proceeded. The resolution follows: Whereas, This convention is compos- ed of 16S delegates from the several towns in the state, of whom ll2 con stitute a two-thirds majority; and
 Whereas, 112 members of this body are delegates from towns whose total population is only 11S,00O or about one eighth of the population of the state; and

Decoration Day.

Some of the citizens met at
the council rooms Tuesday
night to talk over preparation S
for the observance of Deco ra-
tion Day. The services last
year were so full complete an d
perfect that they conclud ed
that they could do no better
than to place all arrangements
in the same hands. So they ap-
pointed Prof. o. w. Colgate a
committee of one, to select all
committees for the occasion i.
That being the'case it is easy to
predict a successful and large
turn out for that day.

cheer spoken and then the par

Those who witnessed the cere-
mony, together with a host of
other friends wish the happy
couple much happiness and
great prosperity. ~

THE CLASS OF 1902
Held Their Commencement at the Opera
House Last Monday Evening.

The closing exercises Of the
Monroe City High School were
held at. the Opera House on
Monday night, April %. The
class of 1902 is the largest in
the history of the school, fifteen
girls and three boys.
The program was Il varied one
given entirely by the class
showing that their education
has not been confined to text
books alone. They go forth in
to the world of action ready to
play many parts. The essays
were bright and to the point,
showing careful pre- paration.
The recitations both humorous
and pathetic were well render
ed and seemed especially suited
to the several members of the
class chosen to take this part
of the program; the music al
ways an attractive feature,
consisted of piano, violin, man
dolin and vocal solos, each
number being we'll received and
heartily applauded. The class
prophecy was especially inter-
esting, each person in the large
audience re.echoing the wish
that the future may hold all the
good things wished for her
classmates by the writer, this
however can hardly be expect
ed, while, 1.-The world goes up
and the world goes down and
sunshine follows the rain" that
these young people can ada pit
themselves to circumstance s
was shown even sooner than
they had expected.
When the program was about
half finished, the storm, which
had threatened for several
hours burst forth in all its fury,
making so much noise it was
impossible to proceed, until it
abated, several class choruseS
were sung and the pautomime,
one of the most taking number S
given. When the regular order
was resumed all felt quite at
ease giving somewhat the ad-
vantage to the last half of the
participants. The America n
audience is proverbial for its
good humor under the most try
ing circumstances and this
proved no exception.
The class roll is as follows:
Bulah Christian, Cleo Chip
man, Ellen Belle Walker, Anna
Payne, Adelaide Lear, OrVllle
A, Brown, Lucy H IN p o n.
George P. Johnston, Edwin G.
Walker, Clara Mae Peirsol.
Bertha S. Nichols. Libbie Hick-
man, Emma Lula jackson Sue

Juneta Settle, Mildred K. Scott,
Julia Megown.

The teachers, parents and
friends all feel very proud of
the class of 1902. May the path
chosen by each Que lead on tc
victory. ~

BUCKMAN...REID
Big Ball and Banquet By N. E. S. Club
In Their Honor.

The marriage of W. r. Buck.
man and Miss Loretta Reid, OF
North Fork was arranged on
the quiet to be quiet one, but
the M e. S. Club of which Will
was a prominent member, sa id
nay.
The happy couple were unit
ed in the bonds of wedlock by
Rev. FIR. D. f. Sullivan in Shell.
bina Tuesday at 1:30 p. m. and
it was their intention to take
the Burlington train for brid-
al trip, but the Club informed
them that they had prior
claim on them and that Monroe
City was as far as they could
go until yesterday, because a
big ball and banquet had been
prepared in their honor. The
groom whispered something in
her ear, something sweet for
her to hear and blushingly she
placed herself and William in
the hands of the 2:04 Glass once
again.
They arrived here on time
and in a few hours the ball
room-Opera House-was filled
by about one hundred and
twenty five young people, full
of life and ready to sip the nee
tar that is part of youth, beau
ty and tender heart strings, tc
the full.
Naturally the bride anC
groom lead the dance, but
wope, did the Buckmau balk?
Nope, it was only misstep, he
has been working in the 20:
class single harness so Ions
that he had forgotten his run
ming mate and that double har
ness means a curb and that tn
swiftest of the swift must b.
held in check. while the prett.
brown eyed beauty is getting
the trailing harness caught il
great shape for the coming
show ring which was also
speedy one. The bride a popu
lar one filed out her program
in a moment and could hav
filled out several more if ther
had not been a time limit fo
even the 2:04's.
Was it a banquet or a sur
per? If you had have held on
of the menue cards then glanc
ed at the table when the guest
were being served, any on
would had said: The forme
word truly describes the la
out.
AS a ball, banquet, an hor

The Word "Picnic."

Few people know the original mean
ing of the word picnic" 1t is to be
found set ol.t in the London Times of
a hundred years ago. "A picnic sup
per consists Of a variety of dishes The
subscribers to this entertainment have
a bill of fare presented to them. with
a number against each dish. The lot
which he draws Obliges him to furnish
the dish marked against it, which he
either takes with him in his carriage
or sends by servant. The proper
variety is preserved by the talents Of
the maitre d'hotel, who forms the bill
of fare. AS the cookery is furnished by
SO many people of fashion each strives
to excel, and thus picnic supper not
only gives rise to much pleasant mirth,
but generally can boast of the refine
ment of the art"
