PYTHIAN BANQUET.
One of the Finest Ever Given in
the Town.
Attended by a Gay and Happy
Crowd of knights With Their
Wives and Sweethearts.

Thursday evening, Feb. 10Th, the
Knights of Pythias gave their
annual banquet at Castle Hall.
Knights and their fair ladies COM
menced to assemble and by the
time the appointed hour had
arrived the hall presented a pleas
ant scene being comfortably filled
with the gay and mirthful ban
queters arrayed in their best and
most presentable costumes. The
winsome faces of the fairest of the
fair were wreathed in smiles of
youth and beauty; their dancing,
sparkling eyes large and brown
with velvet lustre pierced the
hearts of the manly Knights; and
the golden tresses vieing with raven
locks, gave to the scene a charm
and an enchantment that made all
feel at ease and weak hearts ready
for the varying scenes of the
evening.
At 7:30 the knights with firm and
elastic step and gallant tread
escorted their fair companions to
the banquet tables where a scene
met the eye that made the latest
creations of feminine attire, fair
faces, sparkling eyes and roseate
cheeks sink into ins1gnificance.
The tables were covered with the
daintiest white linens that the loom
produces, while cut glass, glitter
ing silverware and transparent
chinaware with fruit and flowers
and relishes and viands such as
would equal if not excel any feast
of Royalty, were spread with such
elegance and taste that all of the
charms and graces of the ban
queters stood for aught. The
Walters glided here and there pay
| ing ever attention possible and
bestowing favors on those partak-
ing, so that each banqueter felt
they were receiving special
attention and favor.
80 Al Andrews, the chief
magician of the culinary art, is due
| the praise for the elaborate repast
that made the occasion the finest
the Knights have ever given, and
toihim and his wife and those who
assisted in ministering to the com
fort and convenience of those
present, the Knights will ever
remember and fondly cherish il
deep appreciation the perfect ser
vice willingly given that helped
make the affair one of the nota BILE
banquets of the lodge.
After the repast they all retraced
their footsteps to the lodge rooms
where games and games and games
and wit and humor and social con.
verse was the order of the evening Q
until the hour for parting, when
best wishes, fondest hopes. good
byes and farewells were spoken anG
the happy throng, one by one or
two by two, pushed out into the
gloom of silent night to wend theil
way homeward, their minds filled
With pleasant memories. Long
may the X. P. boys live and grow
and prosper and annually give
banquets to strengthen the socia
tie of their fraternity.

Lecture Course Finished
From a Financial View Satisfac-
tory Success.
But From Point of Interest and
Attendance Failure.

Friday evening at the X. P. Opera
House, j. Clement Ambrose deliver
ed his lecture from the popular and
instructive theme THE Fool in
Politics." to a very small but very
appreciative audience. 1t was the
last number of the course for the
winter and was the equal of any
address ever delivered in our little
city. The business men of the town
for a few years past have put in and
backed the lecture courses and with
one exception have made the
receipts for tickets pay for the lee
lures and all incidental expenses.
This year has been success as far
as finances count, but the attend
ance has not been what the pro-
moterS wished and desired: and to
express the situation and show the
lack of interest and attendance it is
but necessary to state that at the
lecture given Friday evening, there
were forty-two persons holding sea-
son tickets all paid for that did not
attend. This state of affairs is not
due to any personal feeling against
the course or the management of
the same, but simply lack of
interest.
The men on the lecture platform
are the leading men of thought and
action of our nation, and they mold
and fashion the influences that
WELD the destinies of men and
women and nations. Their lectures
are the product Of days and weeks
and months of thoughtful study
and diligent research, coupled
with travel, observation, expert.
nents and practical experience
which when combined give to the
world aud mankind the essence OF
the spirit of progress, growth
advancement and development.
1t seems that when one considers
the effort and study required to pre-
pare lecture that it would appea
to all intelligent minds, but we are
sorry to say that crowd O
"niggers" with but little intelligence
and less refinement, giving tha
which tends to destroy grace, cul
ture and morality, strikes a more
responsive chord in our midst thar

oratory that lecture platform car

produce. But whatever may be our
faults and lack of patronage in the
past it is hoped that we will profit
by our experience and endeavor to
do better; not only back all public
and social enterprises for the good
OF the community with crisp new
bills of currency and glittering
pieces of gold and silver, but lend
our presence, help mold better
public sentiment for good and do
all in our power to keep every
avenue in the affairs of life in
harmony with the push and energy
that characterizes the business
interests of our town. 1t is hoped
at an early date, arrangements will
be made for another course next
season and from every standpoint
it will far surpass all past Efforts

"The state board of health has
placed chickenpox on the blacklist.
Doctors will be required to report
it like other contagious diseases
and to placard it and the local
boards of health will keep families
infected in quarantine. This action
is due to the fact that reports have
been coming into the state board
that smallpox has been creeping
into the schools because of so many
cases diagnosed as chickenpox.
Doctors either ignorantly or
through desire to shield
influential patients call the small
pox chickenpox and thus expose
many to danger. ."-Des Moines

Rev. w. w. Hartsough, pastor of
the Congregational church in this
city tor the past two years, deliver
ed his farewell sermon last Sunday
to crowded house, and as it was
the anniversary of the "Father of
his Country he chose as his sub
Ject America" the foundation
being laid from Gen. II chap. 1-2.3
The theme was we'll discussed and
the points he made were all
applicable and readily understood,
and was intensely interesting to all
who were so fortunate as to listen
to his discourse. AS a farewell to
the citizens he referred to the able
manner in which his own partic-
ular people of the church had stood
by him and while Acknowledged
that he had probably made some
enemies by his fearless manner of
speech in regard to certain sins,
which need not be enumerated, vet
on the other hand he was proud to
acknowledge and make known that
some OF his best friends were to be
found in other churches; and in
tact, outside Of any church are
many he can claim as his staunch-
est friends. His choir received and
was Justly entitled to his greatest
encomiums of praise in rendering
him such loyal aid in all his church
services. AT the afternoon meeting
of the Y. NJ. G. AS he was the
recipient of a most beautiful bible
presented him by the Society
which he will no doubt, treasure as
one of his choicest mementos
coming as it did unlocked for and
wholly unexpected. AT night at
the church the choir and orchestra
gave an excellent musicale to an
audience which filled the house so
that even standing room was at a
premium. This entertainment was
gotten up for and intended as a
farewell tribute. Mr.. Hartsough
and his esteemed wife with their
two little children intend to leave
next Tuesday for katharyn, North
Dakota, there to take up new duties
and form new friendships, but they
go followed by the prayers of the
faithful and the we'll wishes of all
for their future happiness and
prosperity in the coming years.
