charge of a delegation of Elks from
the Albany lodge, of which Neil was
member.
The unfortunate young man had no

their request, were sent to that city,
leaving Albany Saturday afternoon.

The Sock Social.

The entertainment given by the La
dies Guild at Woodmen hall Wednes-
day night was a very successful affair
both from financial and social stand
point. The program, though short
one, was good and appreciated by the
audience.
The opening number on the program
was an exhibition of Mrs, Jarley's. wax
works consisting OF historic figures,
both OF love, war and antiquity. Con-
spicuous among the figures was one
labeled Hurley Lutz, who in his palmy
days made himself famous by commit.
ting matrimony fourteen different
times and then indulging in the pas
time of tickling his wives to death with
BARLEY straw applied to the soles of
their feet while in peaceful slumber.
The fat boy, "Joe" was another catchy
figure and when Mrs farley wound him
up and set him going, the way he de-
stroyed provisions was a caution to a
dyspeptic constitution This figure
looked suspiciously like unto our genial
hardware merchant, G. II. Gardner.
and the audience concluded that it was
one of his ancestors done up in wax.
The Talking Doll was sweet little
thing and demonstrated later in the
evening that mamma was not all she
could articulate.
We felt extremely sorry for one poor
creature who made herself immortal by
darning her husbands socks on Sum
day, the shock was SO great that it
caused her death.
Another dear old girl, aged one hun
dred and thirty-two summers and no
one knows how many winters, died
dancing. 1t seemed sad that one so
young should be cut off in the bloom
of life.
The Siamese Twins were curiosities-
in themselves and we do not wonder
that their memory should be perpet-
uated in wax.
The Nun, with a vlsage both sweet
and stern, made the cold chills creep
over us as she told ler beads in reE
sponse to the winding she received at
the hands of Mrs. farley, and we fain
would have nun" OF. her lot in ours.
The qpartette, composed of Misses
Edith Elder and Oneatta Reynolds and
Messrs. Franklin and McCaulou, rem.
dered excellent numbers, and the vocal
solo by Miss Flora Stanton met with
ringing applause.
The pantomime consisted of we'd
ding scene from the rural districts.

blushing groom and his twentieth cent.
ury bride.
lntersposed among the original num-
bers on the program were graphophone
selections. George Landreth kindly
furnishing this part of the entertain
ment. The records were all of high
order and added immensely to the
pleasure of the evening.
Next came refreshments consisting
.sandwces, cake and coffee. The net
proceeds of the evening was about s45.
This neat little sum goes for the benefit
OF the Episcopal church.
