On Saturday afternoon, September 8,
Mrs. M. H. Linsley and Mrs. E. A.
Lillibridge were at home at the resi-
dence Of the former, corner of Cakes
and Barnes streets. The pleasant
rooms were a mass of flowers. In the
hall, where the guests we're met by
Miss Marjorie Stickney, was a bank of
asters and sweet peas: in the parlors
vases of the same flowers occupied
every available space; while the dining
room was resplendent in yellow mas
turtiums and marigolds. Miss Dorothy
Stickney distributed the flower favors-
blue asters-and water lily place cards
were pretty souvenirs of a pleasant
occasion Five hundred was played at
eight tables and finch by eight ladies.
Two handsome Japanese bowls and
two cups and saucers Of the same beau.

City Contracts.

After passing the annual appropriation
bill Thursday evening, providing for a
tax levy of o mills, the council accepted
the Hughes & Deiters offer of SOS per
month for pumping all the water re-
CURED, day or night, for a period of one
year. AT the close Of the year the city
has the option of contracting at sc. per
1000 gallons.
Under this arrangement the city will
have current at any and all times at IN
expense less than the cost of labor in
case of installing steam power, to say
nothing of the investment of boilers, etc.
The electric light committee, Alder
man Turner, chairman, reported that
they would recommend that the city con-
tract with Hughes 4 Deiters for IS arc
lights at a cost of s85 per month. This
price they had found, by actual investi-
cation, was a fair figure, a little better
than the price at Fargo, and as good as
any place in North Dakota. The COM
mlttee was authorized to enter into a con-
tract as per report.
The city has been paying slo2 per
month for its electric lights, so the new
arrangement is better both as to price
and service. tits certain that IS arc
lights will give much better light than
the present incandescent lamps.
Geo. Senour and J. van der Las, for
the Dickinson Commercial club, reported
on the city park offer from James c.
Young, and Mayor Manning appointed
Aldermen Richards, Kihm and Stewart
a committee to take up the matter with
the club.

The Meaning Of "Bridee."

The story goes that years ago, long
before bridge vas known in London
clubs, two families who played the
game under the name Of Russian
whist" were living in neighboring
houses at or ear Great Daily in
Leicestershire. The only road of COM
munication lay over a somewhat dan
gerous bridge. It was a frequent &C.
currence for the departing guests to
say to their hosts: "Thank goodness, it
is your bridge tomorrow" meaning
that the other party would have to
0 the dangerous bridge the next
night; hence is said to have arisen
the title Of bridge" We give this story
for what it is worth, but in u own
mind we have little doubt that the
modern name Of bridge" Is merely a
very easy corruption Of the old title
Of ''biritch." The two words "biritch"
and bridge" have absolutely the same
sound when spoken quickly, 80 that it
ID easy to imagine how the change
came to pass.-London Saturday Re

Men, Women and Fact.

Tact has always been considered the
peculiar attribute Of woman. with
a woman's tact" is one Of the stock
phrases of the novelist. But a writer
in. n of the American magazines
and his view is upheld by an English
magazine which quotes him-upsets
this tradition by declaring that men
are more often tactful than women.
Men, it is submitted, are swift to
know when to speak and when not to
speak-when it is wise to withhold
even a look-and that is why a medi-
OGRE a will succeed when even a
clever woman will fail, why men are
greater in diplomacy, in all things that
require inesse. Still it is a question
whether men really succeed better in
diplomacy. What about the woman
who Is the "power behind the throne?"

How the Daisy Wa. Named.

OF all the flowers Of the field the
daisy is the most appropriately named.
Probably not one person in a hundred
understands the significance of this
little flower. Hundreds and hundreds
Of years ago it got its name, and in
all parts Of the world the name means
the same thing. The nature lover who
named the daisy had in bis study Of
the wild flower observed that it opened
its eye with the opening Of the day and
closed it with the setting Of the sun.
So with the simplicity Of the true artist
he called it the eye Of the day, the days
eye or, as we spell it today, the daisy.

A little Portland miss, whose first
name Is Grace, had never attended

to be trusted there, according to the
Kennebec Journal. But at last her
mother permitted her to accompany
an elder sister, giving her grave warn
ings beforehand. The rector Of the
church was a frequent caller at Grace's
home, and her mother feared that on
this account she might take liberties.

address before the annual meeting of

and will continue, tomorrow, was de-
livered in the assembly chamber, to.
night. by Representative Charles f..
Littlefeld Of Maine on the subject,
THE Three Departments OF the Gov.

Other" The address was received with
the greater interest because II was
known that Mr.. Littlefeld would dis
cuss practical aspects OF the question
In the light Of recent developments, and
because the powers Of the judiciary
were treated during the day session
from another point Of view, by Richard
L. Hand, the retiring president OF the
association.
Mr. Littlefield briefly sketched the
American form of government. He
devoted considerable time to legisla.

taking It as an instance OF how quick.

Referring to the constitutional pro
visions as to the executive, Mr. Lit
