T. M. p. G. Reception.

The young gentleman composing
the. Young Mems Progress Club gave
their first reception at the club rooms
Thursday evening, to a nice party of
guests. The club rooms, which are
fitted up neat and costly, were nicely
decorated, and the members wore a
green badge, with the clubs initials.
Various games and amusements were
provided for the entertainment of the
guests A short program was render
ed, in first class shape, refreshments
were served, everybody was made to
feel at' home, and the young men
went at the entertainment in way
that would do credi: to the most ex-
perienced. entertainers. They have a
nice book case, and several volumes
Of good literature, and if any of our
people have'a any books that they can
spare, the club will appreciate the
donation of them. We believe that
this club will prove to be of great
amount of benefit to its members, and
we should all lend a helping hand.

Another "Hoh'Up."


That is what happened to Mrs.
Hooper and Bessie last Thursd'y night
and almost on Main street. Ever
since the Degree of Homer and work
men have been working their surprise
party racket, these good people, and
Charlie too, have maintained that a
surprise could not be workedon them,
but they got fooled: Having had one
party this week, they did not look for
q second one,' but the folks got to-
gether, about 35 of them. and started
for the Hooper home. Mrs. Hooper
and Bessie were on their way to visit
a friend, and encountered the crowd,
and of course the jig was up, and they
troted back home, and sent for Char
lie, who also came in great haste.
The surprise was complete, as was
also the evenings enjoyment, except
as to Breeder. The boys would not
let him alone when he would get To-
Gated, and thus bis pleasure was to
degree spoiled, but the others had
just that much more fun. The usual
refreshments were served, and Viii
hide says it was the right kind of cot
fee, and at a late hour all went home
feeling fine.
