MirhfuI Fat Men Banquet.

Trains into Wells River were ali late
Friday, says a faeetious correspondent,
being overloaded with members from ten
different states en- route to the annual
meeting Of the New England Fat Mems
club. Everyone was weighted with from
200 to 400 pounds of enthusiasm and good
cheer and at least 500 pounds Of expects-
tons and appetite, which was all I'M
loaded at the Mecca Of good feeders and
sleepers, Hale's Tavern Of that village.
The scales at the hosiery formed a COM
bine and thus handled the crowd in a way
only exceeded By the host and hostess in
preparing the game dinner that was served
at s: 30 o'clock.
The time during the afternoon was spent
in reunion, story telling, music and other
conviviality appropriate TO the occasion.
A business meeting of the club was held
in the evening, when IL was found there
was a membership OF 200 and a good bal
ance in the treasury. A large number OF
names were presented for membership and
voted in.
The heaviest member OF the club is
Arthur ii. Moulton of Portland, Me-, who
weighs 4065 pounds. +. j. Gignac OF
Franklin, n. H., who tips the scales at
$50, claims that he is seven pounds OF
weight due to great strenuoslty and scar
city of feed.
Officers were elected, the total weight OF
whom-ten in mum ber-was 1905 lbs.
The game banquet was served at $3.50.
The menu was an elaborate one in which
the different articles appeared under novel
and unique names. A. q. Manson OF Bos-
ton served as POSTMASTER and called for
several responses which were well tattened
with mirth and wit. Music was furnished
by the st. Johnsbury orchestra.
