A Dozen Survivors Of Odd Organize
ton Will Meet Tonight.

The members Of the "Last Man g
Banquet - y. will gather round the festive
board tonight at Saltwater. There will
be about dozen present.
This strange organization was formed
shortly after the civil war, nearly all
the members being Saltwater residents.
They all signed their names on the
label Of bottle of champagne, agree
ing that they should meet annually,
and each year the names of those who
had died should solemnly be erased,
till finally the last meeting should take
place when but one survivor answered
the call for The Last Man s Ban
quet.' And to him is left the honor
Of then opening the bottle and drain
ing it's contents in silent, lonely
toast to those who had answered the
call of the fatal march Of years.
Tonight the banqueters meet at the
Sawyer house between 8 and 8. The
bottle of champagne, the joint property
of the club, will be taken from it's nook
in the vault of the First National bank
and be given a place Of honor at the
banquet table.

Newspaper in Toxic Declares Peace

Toxic, Aug. 1.-THE Nichi tomor-
row will say:
"The continuance of the conference
Is indicative of a hopeful prospect
for the conclusion of peace"
The paper declares that if the Rus
slams had rejected absolutely the
questions of reimbursement and the
cession of Sakhalin island, the Japan.
csc would have withdrawn from the
conference These demands are equal
ly as important as the Korean and
Manchurian questions. Japanese vic
tories have been realized by the vast
sacrifice of money and blood without
the prespect Of Russia's compliance in
the payment of war expenditures and
the transfer of Sakhalin island. There
is no reason why the conference
should not be continued.
The Nichi Nichi expresses the be.
lief that the Russian delegates divul
ged the nature of the Japanese de-
mands and suggests that theJapanese
delegates abandon the plan of secrecy
and keep their people informed as
to the progress of the war.
