wrought in gilt and suspended from
the ceiling.

crate supper was served at IL o'clock,
a similar scene was presented and the
long tables were laden with substan-
tial danties prepared by the women
and calculated to remind their guests
of the Fatherland.
A. c. Brode acted as floor manager
and had as aids l.. A. Hauser, L..
