What number of people went over
J to St. Paul Saturday to hear Baron
Humbug," and how enthusiastic they
are over the serformance! A group
! of the younger set, who were at the
matinee, formed a jolly dinner party
A popular young married couple
chaperoned an equally popular young
unmarried couple over in the evening.
AS it would be late when they re-
turned, the unmarried couple were to
be the guests of their friends over
night. In some way, nobody can ex-
plain how, they lost each other, and,
{ the married couple reaching home
) first, forgot their guests and serenely
I locked their doors and Lretired. When
( the other couple arrived at the fiat
{ the door was most inhospitably closed
} and the other jewellers in the building
I were awakened before their friends.
q why can't the Blanks give their
( girl key instead of letting her dis.
} turb everybody in the building to gel
I in?" grumbled a sleepy man who wen

ened with fire or burglars, and h'
never knew that he had taken on,

I those in st. Paul? A st. Paul mai

) of the Metropolitan theater Saturda,
evening and watched the friends o
the Roosevelt club troop in, and h
{ was willing to wager any amount tina
} he could pick out the Minneapoli
I girls by their beauty and style. For
I tunately, possibly, his friends were to-
= loyal to hold him to his offer, but tn
question has been raised.
