Surprise Dance.

One of the most pleasa mt surprise
dances of the season was given by Mr..
and Mrs G.. II. Kineth in honor of Miss
Agnes eighteenth birthday anniver-
sary on Saturday evening, Oct. 18th.
The room was decorated with autumn
leaves and berries. The happy crowd
gathered at s o'clock, about the same
time Miss Agnes in company with Mr..
Gibson arrived from the city, where
they had spent pleasant afternoon at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs +. kreidel,
until the hour arrived for them to re-
turn home. On their arrival at the
Kineth home, they were very much
surprised, as Miss a gnes had been en-
plOyed in the city for months past and
knew absolutely nothing about the
pleasant surprise in store for her and
Mr.. Gibson. At midnight the merry
crowd stepped into the spacious dining
room and partook of Il delightful lunch,
after which the guests departed for
their respective homes wishing Miss
Agnes the return of many more such
happy events.
